As someone who has played ranked FPS' since... they existed (sigh), and the number of times I had a male teammate throw a tantrum and then refuse to make callouts is... Probably in the hundreds. From QTF to CS to TF2 to Apex...

During a CAL-im match, Dan? Really, Dan?

Oh yeah, even with friends. Everyone in my discord has had a good sook at the others. "I thought you were with me!" proceed to scatter like cats yet again with everyone 'leading'

[–] MystikIncarnate@lemmy.ca 4 points 11 months ago

Everyone is the leader, and zero people are following. Gg everyone.

QTF

we got a fossil over here

(I'm too young to have played Quake when multiplayer was a thing ;-; but I do speedrun it)

I have fond memories of playing Doom via a null modem cable

Quake Multi-player is still alive with the remasters that were released recently.

[–] A_Very_Big_Fan@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I've tried it and I had a lot of fun with it at release, but the queue times for matchmaking got unreal (pun intended) pretty quick. I mainly play Half-Life and Quake Live now but it's not quite the same

(but HL1's multiplayer is the bomb tbh, just a lot of servers are dead)

[–] ChronosWing@lemmy.zip 2 points 11 months ago

Yep, I have very fond memories of HL1 multiplayer, also there were SO many HL1 mods that were just incredibly fun.
