I've made a short blog about my experiences at the ESL Dubai 2009 for QuakeLive.

Quote:The aim felt a lot different on LAN. Well, maybe it's because I haven't really gotten to play a low ping game in QL. Now I really don't know. The dodging at this level is really insane. Not to mention the fact that the QL pros seem to use the jump-crouch a LOT and they use it extremely well. The model animation for the jump-crouch looks really retarded though because it looks like they have a leg sticking out of their ass. I'll give you an example of how effective the jump-crouch is. Imagine your opponent rushing/charging at you while you're basically holding your ground or preparing to counter him with a readied stance, you fire a rocket when he's close enough to you, you predicted the rocket well BUT the opponent simply jump-crouches and the rocket sails below his feet. It's like the dodging scene in the Matrix except that you simply jump over the rocket using the jump-crouch technique (which also lowers your vertical model height from the head a bit I think) in Quakelive.

i really think it's cuz of Vista. i've been through this change at home itself, and it obviously feels different when you lose mouse-fix and go back to default polling rate.
