This game is now 25 years old. I feel old. This game is still pretty good.

If you can strafe jump you should be able to transition pretty easy. Just stop using w. Idk how good you are at strafe jumping, but if you're good enough to flick stop that and just drag between left/right. In q2/3 there are accel zone that you want to ideally snap to, with q1/qw/cs you pick up small amounts of accel all along the way.

I've been playing Quake Mission Pack 1. Lots of new levels, a couple new weapons, and some new enemies.

I've completed the old QL training, but I'm not that good. Again, I went for Unreal Tournament instead of Q3 (when Q2 went out I had no internet connection) so I had to catch up a lot. Anyway, the major issue I encounter is not sj in itself, but playing the actual game and applying those techniques. I can sj, rj, and I have a decent aim, but cant navigate the map while sj and kill people effectively. I can state I am the suck lol
