Oopsies!
Just noticed in the email:

"Please do not stream, capture video, or discuss your experience with the game outside the Private Beta Forums"

Guessing it's already discussed all over the internots already though

Coirses! Trying to reset password, emails "sent" are sloooooooow.

Just got my invite! Won't have too much time to play over the weekend but should get a couple of hours in.

Combat Fighter · 27 Apr 2017 at 15:03

ill have to check my e mails when i get in

Anyone else think the movement feels quite Quake 2 with a slight extra bounce to it? overall its pretty good but there is a slight organic fluidness missing that quake 3 had when trying to turn sometimes.

Not enjoying it so much today increasingly getting matched with people with poor connections who warp around very hard to hit

EDIT: Oh and seems resolution scaling is broken - look up how to remove the setting from the config file as for many people it makes the graphics sharper.

Anyone with a spare key?

Then you become addicted and end up saying where did the weekend go...

Rocket and railgun firing lag is starting to annoy me now - doesn't stop me rocket jumping like some but starting to notice it enough its detracting from the experience.

This sounds awfully familiar to the early 00s.

any idea where the config file is?

Rroff · 27 Apr 2017 at 19:20

%localappdata%\Saber Interactive\Quake Champions\client a few files in there - video options in the config folder.

I've opened up the config file. How do you remove the setting?
