DeFRaG
Many players liked the game "Quake III Arena", and after a while the developers suggested another modification - "DeFRaG". This is a one-off game for the purpose of training sessions, where gamers can practice stunts, movements, tempo and agility up to delicacy. Pre-preparation helps gamers complete the Arena Challenges faster and easier. But before playing, you should understand the characteristics of the cards and the requirements for them.
Features of the game "DeFRaG"
You need to develop valuable skills in passing special cards, moreover, for a while. This is not easy to do, but skill comes with experience. Weapons for destruction are not used, they are given as assistance in moving the player from one point to another. Cards differ from other game formats in many tendencies, there are even options that were developed specifically for one type or another.
Gamers do not compete directly, the winner is determined by the final test points, as in competitions. Due to the unusual planning, most of the maps require not only standard skills to complete, but also the use of tricks. Triggers are built into the cards: start, checkpoints, and stop. A successful demo passage is recorded automatically, as well as the time period for which the player was able to cope with the task and complete everything that is set out in the map.
Card types
All cards for defrag are divided into 2 types, the first one - created by the group of authors "DeFRaG", that is, official, used to establish the rank. There are already more than 30 of them, you can download them on the official website. But there are also other cards - amateur ones, which were created by the defraggers themselves.
Now - about the developed types of cards for the game:
- training maps are not too big, they help to work out one trick or a weapon;
- run maps - offers different tricks, but in a specific order;
- accuracy-maps - here the main task is to "take out" as many targets as possible;
- level-maps are a competition for speed, you need to rush to the points selected on the map or find the required number of things, and then return to the finish line.
You can choose a free mode - freestyle, where different tricks are practiced, but already without specific tasks and goals.
How to complete a task in DeFRaG?
Those types of maps that the authors managed to develop are no longer placed in separate sections, and in order to figure out what type it is, it is enough to load the map. If it is run, then the goal is to pass the test in a short time, this is the most common option. If the accuracy card is for shooting, it is worth choosing a railgun, although it is not forbidden to take any other weapon. Fast caps are dropped - capturing the flag is required.
The modes are also taken into account, and there are 8 of them, 2 physics have been developed in the game: VQ3 - standard initial, by default, and CPM. CPM, on the other hand, is a more selective physics used in the promo code. What is the difference? Players note several points: air control, when you can not slow down, turning over in the air, lightning-fast switching of types of weapons, double jumps - from any surfaces where there is even a slight slope, steps and railings. Jumping from teleports is also different. If he stands on a hard surface, then the speed of the player who leaves him increases significantly, it is significantly higher than when playing on VQ3. If the teleporter is in the air, the speed will be identical on VQ3. Double jumping is still allowed.
No violence
It is known that a rare "shooter" game does without bloodshed, by the way, the version of "Quake III Arena" is also different in this. For the development of "DeFRaG" the authors have completely excluded this moment. There is competition, but no violence. We focused on improving skills using the Q3A physics features, and, as practice has shown, they did not fail. Competitions under the conventional motto "Higher, Better, Faster!" Moreover, all efforts are justified, those who have shown high results in training for modification, much faster cope with tasks in the main game. So you should definitely test your skills and hone your skills.
