They removed explicity advertised features, which made the game more balanced and more enjoyable, 14 days after launch.

The worst quake hands down. Id Software turned the golden gameplay formula they had with Quake 3 and Quake Live into a microtransactions laden, hero shooter ( variable abilities and HP/Armor/speed stats/hitboxes) with a movement that feels like you play a tank, with subpar maps and a few classic ones that they butchered (prettier graphics but small geometric details on every wall/door etc hamper the flow often by stopping you mid movement/air, with ceilings that are too small, with too many open spots and holes that oversee the entire maps (destroys the tactical/strategic aspect of many maps), with worse icon and weapon design, with rockets that are faster or as fast as usual but feel too fast with the heavy slow movement and are hence harder to evade, the accessibility settings suffer because of the cosmetic nature of the game, the netcode is so **** that I still truly believe that it's the sole reason they slowed down the movement speed and soooo much more. They should have just released a state of the art graphical Quake with the same netcode/movement as loved by the fans with a fair playing field across the board with the same odds for everyone, with graphically improved classics and new maps, and free to play with the occasional cosmetics/texture packs/banners/avatar pictures, to truly elevate this into the mainstream Esport and BAM they would have been leagues more successful than this misery ****. I gave this game so many chances over so many years. Just sad.
