Anoche hicieron una actualización considerable en Quake Live. Destaca el tema del hitbox, que ahora será cilíndrico.
Hitbox Changes - We fully expect there to be a required adjustment period for most players. Some players may find the change subtle and adjust quickly while others may need 3-7 days to adjust. Once adjusted you should find that the new hitbox provides a more consistent game play experience, it will be slightly easier to dodge and hitting other players can feel more rewarding.
Increased Server Framerate - In addition to providing a smoother gameplay experience, the increased server framerate also addresses an issue that was occurring with the lightninggun. The lightinggun will now fire at a consistent rate, something that was not possible (with great precision) under the previous server settings. You may notice that the LG will sound 'better' when hitting consecutive shots, rather than the hitbeeps sounding staggered.
True Vertexlighting - The new style of vertexlighting present in the maps updated this evening more closely resemble the Quake III Arena style of vertexlight. No lightmap data is referenced, so all shadowing is removed from the level. The end result will be a fairly brighter look and if your visuals have been configured for the other maps you may need to adjust your r_gamma and/or r_mapoverbrightbits to find acceptable settings. While currently only present on these maps, the plan moving forward is that all maps will have true vertexlighting when in vertex light mode.
