Watched this again and again, it's still the best comeback I've seen, the commentary just adds to the tension, love the game, love the win, love the trashtalk :)
When I had just started to play quake I downloaded the first quake frag video I ever saw which was QuakeCon 2002 Highlights which contained fantastic frags by zero4. When I was still playing he was my idol. It's nice to see he's still playing.
Yes Quake has bad graphics. BECAUSE it was CREATED in 1999 (btw this is not quake live's 'real graphics' they have been lowered for some reason, most likely for the viewers who play quake.) Yes Quake is unrealistic but that doesn't mean its less superior in terms of providing entertainment in which a video game is supposed to do. Yes Quake requires a lot more skill to play than call of duty, any Quake player can play a public game of CoD and get a decent score due to the mindless gameplay mechanics aka killstreaks and grenade launchers. Although this is a one way street because the same wont happen for the cod player.
+Jaime Gonzalez this game looks the same if not better than quake3 mate. this is the kind of configuration people use to play more competitively . it doesnt only affect how many fps you have, but actually makes aiming a bit easier for some. quake 3 was like this in tournaments too ;d in game menus dont allow you to get the game like this, the most important command is r_picmip . in this case i think its r_picmip "5". if you use r_picmip "0" , you get full textures like you remember. if you use "10" , you get even flatter untextured walls (wich is also bad, its better to have some references both aim wise and to sense speed) :P . this are the competitive standard graphics
im 16 and my dad introduced me to quake 3 and all the games that i actually enjoyed at the age of 5-6. I have to say. Nothing gets close to UT and QUAKE 3, they are one of the best.
It's matches like these that really make me want to get into Quake. Thankfully with the new one coming out I'll finally have a chance (didn't actually become familiar with the scene until recently and QL has been basically dead for years, so I kind of had poor timing there)
Don't worry about it. Part of the game is getting the best weapons for the scenario and then using them correctly. That's why map awareness is so important.
All games do take skill, but not all games are equally skill based. Quake is one of the most skill based first person shooters out there. It's a staple at gaming competitions for a reason.
What is the Addon? You can see on the top left corner the Yellow armor and Red and then the Mega health cooldown... It counts down and at 0 it spawns! Is this addon legal when playing on normal server? What's the addon then ? ty
Does everyone turn down their gfx settings by choice or does QL actually look like this? Because in this vid it looks older that Q3A if that's possible.
@sighteyed Actually no, Z4's kill with the lightning gun on 6:18 wasn't a midair kill, they were talking about dkt's rocket which hit Z4 at that moment. That's why the commentator jokingly says on 6:24 "You may kill me, but I shall air rocket you in the nuts!"
@CadrinHaverit The appearance in this video is after using a bunch of console tweaks to change the appearance. You can make it look like Q3A if you want, but most people turn down the textures so that it's easier to see everything.
based on what ? why should specs have best graphics on ? i thought quake was about showing off skill not how pretty it looks. It would be a different thing if this was a QUAKE REVIEW video, in that case yes !
Is this config avaliable somewhere? I have lowered the quality of visuals to gain FPS, but all the textures look like puke, I want to have no textures like this video :O!! Help?
How long does quake live load? help me. my name is Gilbert Alva. I'm a Pilipino and a QL member but can't play the game. I have a 3 MB broadband good signal but still can't play. just a screen whit the quit sign. pls. help...
This is the most skill based shooter I've ever played. It's so fast paced and intense, just how an FPS should be :3 Also the standard you need to be at to be great are insane..... Map knowledge (teleports, weapon/pickup locations, general map layout), accuracy (9/10 if you have better accuracy you will kill them), predicting your enemies movements, strafe jumping, rocket jumping, switching weapons based on the situation etc (all of which are handily shown 8:10 to 8:40).
Wut.. I don't think they are, unless you're talking about the old CoD, which might be possible then, but I'm pretty certain the newer CoDs have a different engine than Quake Live.
This never gets old.

Big thanks to ESL for allowing us (QLTV) to cast such amazing games. Also thanks for promoting our video on your YT acct.
The reason us people play quake is because it is probably the most competitive game ever made
Get wrekt neckbeard elitist. Their are many other games in the same vein that are just as competitive.
Meh. You are right
It is among the most competitive, I will give you that..
I suppose unreal tournament is up there
There's also Painkiller and Nexuiz.
"that's how you do it."
"that's how you blow 14 points lead. "
but It was 13 point lead, sorry
THE GRAPHICS HAVE BEEN LOWERED FOR THE SIMPLE FACT THAT ITS EASIER TO TELL THE PLAYER APART AS WELL AS ITEMS IT ALSO MAKES IT EASIER TO FOLLOW
when I heard zer0 was sick I immediately started rooting for him
It makes me sad that all the comments on this are from 5-12 years ago. This game is eternal, and this comeback was godlike.
This game gets your adrenaline flowing.
I have never even played Quake, nor have I ever watched a game of Quake, but this made my heart pound so hard its unbelievable.
The comebacks are real.
Man, sick and 10 years past his prime and zero4 is still kicking ass.
I've never even played or watched quake live before this video but god damn this owns
I never played this game and yet I can see how awesome this match is. Mad skills there!
Zero4 lied- it was only a 13 frag lead. This game always makes me happy because I dislike DKT. 11 glorious frags in just over 3 minutes :)
Fanboy.
hellspwanedperson duck off
Zelousmarineinspace be gone you quack.
hellspwanedperson I'd rather you just bill me
Jay Plays I tried watching DKT stream and he seems like a douche. Constant stream of excuses and negativity.
Definitely one of the best matches of the year. ZeRo4 pulled out some crazy rail strings at the end! NICE!
Amazing!
The first Quake video I ever saw. Crazy.
I just downloaded quake, and before playing a game I watched this. I have no fucking clue whats happenings
When I had just started to play quake I downloaded the first quake frag video I ever saw which was QuakeCon 2002 Highlights which contained fantastic frags by zero4. When I was still playing he was my idol. It's nice to see he's still playing.
hax why is it the guy with the video view mode always wins.
I hope you`re trolling...
they switched between them
My eyes were wide open too and I had goosebumps. Zero4 has shown here some real quality playing and long years of experience. Wow, that was something.

FPS. Lower the graphics, better the frame rate. It took some pleasure away from it when you felt forced to lower all the settings.
How do i get my quake like this
chris flanger I think it's something called "picmip"
Visibility also factors in

Inacius Tenacius
I miss my days of Quake. Is this still popular on line? After all these years?
Nice to see one of the oldest and one of the greatest players like ZeRo4 back in a shape. Great comeback, both meanings.
Put a Quaker in CoD and he will dominate!
+Razster Put a 9 year old in CoD and he can dominate lol.
7 minutes 32 seconds = epic!!!!!!! I live for moments like those!
Zero such a bad winner.
He's from the old school, I played with him a lot back in the day, we shit talked eachother nonstop.
im 16 and my dad introduced me to quake 3 and all the games that i actually enjoyed at the age of 5-6. I have to say. Nothing gets close to UT and QUAKE 3, they are one of the best.
Grrrr I hate the lightning gun!
Me to, its overpowered
megajimmyfive it's op if u can use it..
An thats not simple..
megajimmyfive Only if you use it right.
I wish the rail gun as 1 hit kill, because it uses an other worldly level of skill.
megajimmyfive What der hell you talkn about Willus?
It IS a one hit kill.
Learn to use it properly, so git gud
Zero has EARNED my respect!...continue fragging my freinds
holy fuck, i haven't watch or play quake live before. this epic comeback series make me a fan.
@woodyfly
Okay thanks, is it just for sale in the shops or is it downloadable?
How do you get those nice and clean textures and icons?
whats the complete name of this game? it looks awesome !
It's matches like these that really make me want to get into Quake. Thankfully with the new one coming out I'll finally have a chance (didn't actually become familiar with the scene until recently and QL has been basically dead for years, so I kind of had poor timing there)
Could someone explain to me what "Extended Match History" means?
@HeavensOfMetal
You only posted that a week ago though ? :o
Don't worry about it. Part of the game is getting the best weapons for the scenario and then using them correctly. That's why map awareness is so important.
so good looking game, its so good that we live in 1997 and have these great 3d visuals
I've never really gotten into watching sports, but I found myself laugh aloud at that ridiculous comeback.
arent you the guy that kept posting on the old my gaming edge videos?
A sport is, by definition, something fun. More specifically, a game.
All games do take skill, but not all games are equally skill based. Quake is one of the most skill based first person shooters out there. It's a staple at gaming competitions for a reason.
True. That and I have come to love old 3D visuals
How does one make their textures flat like that? That could really give me an edge.
@Hodovnik Those are timers that tell you when the items will spawn next. They are only available to spectators.
"That's how you do it" (c) ZeRo4
you can make it look like that with playing around in the graphic options :)
I think the hud is a custom spectator hud but im not sure :D
which commands in quake are for these visuals and graphics ? thank you
@Dahak753 okay... and you're also saying they get away with it on tournaments that are played on LAN?
What is the Addon? You can see on the top left corner the Yellow armor and Red and then the Mega health cooldown... It counts down and at 0 it spawns! Is this addon legal when playing on normal server? What's the addon then ? ty
So wait, destrukt? The old CS pro?
Does everyone turn down their gfx settings by choice or does QL actually look like this? Because in this vid it looks older that Q3A if that's possible.
how do i make those litle addons showing the cooldowns for armors etc?
When you look at this... You are looking at the best players in the world.
I don't get why people hate on this game? o.O I've never even played it but I can respect the amount of skill it takes.
wait so ads are even longer now?
Jesus, I used to worship dkt in CS. So glad to see this name pop up in my feed.
so you can put health and RA timer in the hud somehow?
@sighteyed Actually no, Z4's kill with the lightning gun on 6:18 wasn't a midair kill, they were talking about dkt's rocket which hit Z4 at that moment.
That's why the commentator jokingly says on 6:24 "You may kill me, but I shall air rocket you in the nuts!"
These graphics make the players' skill and the beauty of the game shine. Apparently, other tournaments don't care about those.
This is one of the most hectic things ive seen in a while
Wow this game's skill cap is insane, the movement and everything. I wish games like thsi were still popular.
This might be an odd question but, what's the name of this game?
Is it literally Quake Live or is it a mod from Quake 1?
is wolfenstein ET on the same engine as this?
i think its really good how you guys still buzz off a game that looks like it was made in the late 90's.
it's not banned in canada o.e which part do u live?
@Herolake How is this game "easy" when the difficultly is determined solely by your human player opponents?
how different is it from the original quake?
@CadrinHaverit The appearance in this video is after using a bunch of console tweaks to change the appearance. You can make it look like Q3A if you want, but most people turn down the textures so that it's easier to see everything.
how can i activate those spawntimes in the left of their HUD?
sry4myenglish
IW engine is modified quake engine? I had no idea.
How do I change the textures to this ?
is that really how fast you go?
WOW!! What a comeback!! Almost unbelievable!
How do I make Quake Live look like this?
based on what ? why should specs have best graphics on ? i thought quake was about showing off skill not how pretty it looks. It would be a different thing if this was a QUAKE REVIEW video, in that case yes !
Is this config avaliable somewhere? I have lowered the quality of visuals to gain FPS, but all the textures look like puke, I want to have no textures like this video :O!! Help?
where is demo to download?
@Rarewarefan64 should you still breath regularly?
omg one of the best comebacks in QuakeLive Quake 3 History.
awesome railing by zero4.
What game is this???
how can i make my quake live this low textured????
why everyone is green? in my game too.... can i change it?
@EvillClaws tier 2 ? :)
Which map is this?!?!
How did he get SPAWN overview ??
why the hell are they using rail at close range?
How can I set my game like this?
What is this game called? Quake Live? And could anoyone be so kind that they would post a link to where i can buy it or what to search for on steam?
Holy shit, that's unparalleled.
How long does quake live load?
help me.
my name is Gilbert Alva. I'm a Pilipino and a QL member but can't play the game.
I have a 3 MB broadband good signal but still can't play. just a screen whit the quit sign.
pls. help...
This is the most skill based shooter I've ever played. It's so fast paced and intense, just how an FPS should be :3
Also the standard you need to be at to be great are insane..... Map knowledge (teleports, weapon/pickup locations, general map layout), accuracy (9/10 if you have better accuracy you will kill them), predicting your enemies movements, strafe jumping, rocket jumping, switching weapons based on the situation etc (all of which are handily shown 8:10 to 8:40).
Wut.. I don't think they are, unless you're talking about the old CoD, which might be possible then, but I'm pretty certain the newer CoDs have a different engine than Quake Live.
is quake live free?
that's the spectator hud, you can never see the item timers in game while playing
@Tjackskadatbarn
Clan arena, ctf, team match?
that's really weird, because a lot of the servers are hosted in canada. in fact i think i've seen a few canadian players.
Pls help my quake live plugin is done but the game won't start?
@vindexus Do a lot of people play it?
