Quake is one of my favorites games in the Brokenlens Server. It's fun, Fast paced and easy to follow. Run and Gun.

Quake tho, is so inactive. Everytime I play there's no one online and if there is it's not enough.

I have a few reasons on why I think quake is dying.

1. Controls
Controls for quake is easy on Windows and Java. Break to shoot. For mobile it's impossible to hit without luck, Holding the screen for 1 second just to shoot is so slow and I F'ing despise it

- Shooting should be tap instead of hold.

2. Lack of Awareness
Not much people know QuakeCraft exists. It's an amazing game but with MobWars and MurderMystery being more known, the tendency is that Quake will get less known.

- People should help spread the word out for Quake
 
I do agree that it should be tap rather than hold. Especially for mobile, because it's almost impossible to shoot and aim at the same time. I think that would make it fair for mobile players.

But I also understand why they would do that, because what if you keep accidentally shooting trying to do something else. That would also become annoying.

Like said, it’s really fun xD
I used to suck so bad at it in 2017 and get 0 kills until I started to learn and get the hang of it
Well, I’m at 300+ wins in quake now, the more you get the hang of the game/play more often on it, the more fun it could be and you could possibly even become a pro on it

Fr a lot of players should start leaving those games they play 24/7 on and play some games they rarely play cuz you never know if you will actually have fun on it

I actually love Quake, i used to play it all the time and now i have almost 900 wins there but it's really dead so i stopped. It's actually a great game and people should give it a chance

I completely agree with you. Quake needs to be alive again.

Let me tell you a story about this very legendary game.
Once, in 2016, when I first played Quake, it was super active and open. At least, to my knowledge. I didn't speak english very well. It seemed like a fun place everyone would be. I was on tablet back then - and I really enjoyed playing Quake - even though I never won. I had made my first friends, who where all there when I reached level 100 when we all played Quake.
But then - I took a long break from BrokenLens. Most likely because I've got a new pc so I really wanted to try out Minecraft (Java) on it, and I couldn't stop playing Minecraft Java and Geometry Dash then.
But then, about ending of 2017, I returned, on Windows 10 Edition, someone gift it me, Quake was still fairly active, I could play 50 games a day if I wanted. I did play a lot and got super good really really fast, no one could defeat me when I had 300 wins. I made new friends, got Emerald Rank, changed my name, etc.
But then, Quake died out, which is very sad. Quake has always been, in my opinion, the best game ever. My motivation for Top 1 was being like MinecraftDoor1 - this is not a joke, I was inspired by her.

Sad to see that Quake is really not populair now. I hope we can all fix this. Because we can, together!
Thanks for reading,
-Your man Martehhh

It doesn't, updates don't solve everything, sometimes it makes thing worst. I mean look at MCPE 1.13, it's the most useless update ever. It just need more exposure

Well, updates can also make it better

I don't think updates is what Quake needs. In fact, I've noticed minor updates in Quake. Gives me even more respect for vertx not even announcing his great pile of homework.
Quake is unpopular because well, the pros have taken it over, so the newcomers don't have a chance to win at all. However, if Quake will be as alvie as Murder Mystery, it would be fun for anyone.

It’s too hard for PE (mobile) unless you’re pro maybe change controls for PE (mobile) so it’s much easier bc I see people win in like 3 seconds wtf :confused:

Well that's right, many people where good on PE, Including PeegBoi (#5), but Quake is indeed a game of skill and luck. My fastest game of this version in quake is in the 30 seconds. In 2016, MinecraftDoor1 managed to end games in under 20 seconds occasionally. But Quake is now updated, and let's say, harder

I really like quake as well. I agree that the holding to shoot sucks and makes it very hard for pe players (I’m a pe player lol) but I think if it was tap to shoot every time you aimed it would waste your ammo and you would have to wait for your gun to reload. Quake need to be alive again cause I need that exp Lol.

That's what I've been thinking too. but, I think the fact that pe players have to hold down to shoot (with hoe-guns too) is because well, Minecraft physics. I don't think anything can be done t that.
