It is not on Id Tech 6! Would I be right in assuming Quake Champions will be compatible with Vulkan API? "Because we had such success with pairing Vulkan and Doom, it is definitely something we are looking at, but I can’t confirm it at this point. Hopefully you will not have to upgrade your machine too much, but we’re all about speed with Quake Champions. We want to run at 120Hz and we want to run fast. If you go and get the new GTX 1080 [graphics card] it sure looks fast. That is what we have been using to test Quake Champions and I’ve been like, “damn, these cards are fast!” But we do want to have that big base of people [playing], so we cannot make it ridiculously overpowered" https://www.finder.com.au/quake-champions-not-on-id-tech-6
Quake Champions will be free to play http://www.dsogaming.com/news/quake...rs-purchase-all-champions-via-champions-pack/
Technically. It's free to play so long as you are okay with playing as Ranger. But, if you want to play as the other "champions" you will have to pay.
But in UT's case, I understand this game is more an advert to the engine which is why it's free and without micro transactions.
I think it's a good concept for Demo purposes. Every company these days expect you to pay 50-60 Euros and like the game without having tried it. Demos need to come back and the way Quake does it feels right.
I like how the Unreal Tournament 4 Alpha is so bad, that this Quake beta is all they're talking about on epic's own forum lmao!
