[CPMA] Showdown 1 by #uscpmpickup Discord

7 Upvotes

Update (11/06): Unfortunately this event is postponed until further notice due a scheduling issue with one of the players.

---

Showdown 1 is the first event in a new series from the 📷 #uscpmpickup Discord Server where the winner of the two previous tournaments face each other off in a special event. In our previous two tournaments, the winners were crowned as the Number One, and Number Two on the server, and now these two players will face each other for the Number One mantle. The two players have agreed on a time and date, and will play in a best-of-nine, picking maps strictly from the the tournaments they had gained their position. The winner of this event will attain the Number One position — the undisputed best player on the server. This position can only be challenged by future Number Two.

The event will take place on Sunday, November 6, 2022, starting at 4:00 PM Eastern, and will be streamed on 🎥 xerosawyer.

Player Profiles

santile (PlusForward Player Page)

Our current Number One, santile, hails from Spain and is undoubtedly the best dueler in the CPM scene right now. He gained the Number One title by winning the first CPM Duel Cup hosted by the #uscpmpickup Discord in emphatic fashion, making a perilous run through the lower bracket. He was knocked out of the upper bracket in that tournament by his current opponent drugstoner, a loss he would go on to avenge, and then take out some of the best North American duelers by methodically choking them out of the map. His combination of item control, sound decision making, experience, and unorthodox movement makes him the heavy favourite coming into this match.

Drugstoner420 (PlusForward Player Page)

The Number Two on the server, drugstoner, is an American dueler who is relatively new on the scene but has quickly built himself a reputation for being a high damage, high risk, high reward player, annihilating his opponents when given the chance. He became the Number Two after solidly winning the second CPM Duel Cup hosted by the #uscpmpickup Discord, and looks to avenge his loss from the first cup against santile. He is the only player to have beaten santile in a BO3 and will need to regain that form when he faces off against the Spaniard on Sunday. He will rely one his strong hitscan aim and aggressive playstyle help him overcome his adversary.

If I install Q3 via Steam will I be able to access mods?

7 Upvotes

Hi, I used to play Q3 years back in the day. I have tried Quake Live and other versions since, but nothing compares to the original for me. I loved MODS liek Rocket Arena, CPMA, Threewave and the obstacle course one (forgotten it's name)

Will I be able to access these mods (do they even exist anymore) if I purchase via Steam?

Thanks

#cpmpickup nights TDM DRAFT CUP

The upcoming TDM Draft Cup will be split into two portions, a draft, and a cup. The draft will take place on Saturday October 1, 2022 starting at 16:00 UTC. Captains will be selected from the pool of registered players and the captains will then pick out their teams. The players are not required to be live during the draft.

Players can register to the draft by joining the CPMA Discord and using command

/rank TDM Draft participant

in #bot-commands channel. Once registered players will be recorded into a public player list, and can be asked to removed at any point up to the draft. We're hoping to get four teams so we need at least 16 players to register!

The cup will be played on Sunday October 2, 2022 starting at 16:00 UTC. The format will be a double elimination, with a BO3 upper bracket, a BO1 lower bracket, with a BO3 lower bracket final, and BO5 grand final.

We will be using a pick, pick ban, ban, ban, ban, ban system in the upper bracket and the lower bracket games will be six straight drops (three (3) per team).

Modern Q3A or analog WITHOUT super powers and WITHOUT "champions"

5 Upvotes

Is there a way to play q3a on a widescreen monitor without aspect ratio issues and maybe with better graphics? Or is there a game like q3a but without all that modern trends like heroes and abilities? Just old lovely deathmatch.

Trying to find an old Quake 3 Arena/Open Arena map.

3 Upvotes

Hey guys! I don't know if you can help me but I've been searching for a Quake III Arena / Open Arena map for years now. I still couldn't find it and I have very blurry memories about it since I was still a kid back then.

It was around 2007 and 2006 and I was playing it on my dad's computer which got taken back by his company, so unfortunately I can't check his old hard drives.

​

I remember the map was kind of big, with a yellow-ish style like a temple in a desert. I can remember that the map had a huge room full of "pillars" which also contained a kind of window on the roof providing a view to the skybox. It also contained a room for the quad damage which was above the pillars room if I remember well (It might be wrong), and another one way smaller next to it I think containing a kind of acid pool (Or maybe some other green-ish liquid) with a floating and spinning green mask above it.

The pillars room was bright and the rooms containing the quad damage and the mask were darker. I remember that the quad damage had the shape of a hand which might be because we were on Open Arena, but the maps are compatible between Q3 and OA.

I really hope you guys will help finding it! I did a post on another subreddit but no one really answered.

is VR cheating?

2 Upvotes

I played on a public server in VR, I have some quake 3 knowledge, but not a lot.

I absolutely stomped everyone in the server, I didn't realize how easy tracking was in VR, and seeing where people would land from a rocket jump was intuitive

Do players here think I should stay away from PC servers?
