Bethesda released patch notes for the fall Quake Champions update, which is live now. For ID, a big issue has been the repairing of bugs and balancing issues. Most diehard Quake players consistently complain about the lack of updates for these fixes, so this new fall update is certainly a welcome one. The additions of sound and visual customization options also come as great news to Quake Champions players. The game has been loaded with sound issues since the beginning, with it being one of the main reasons some players have been turned off. The new customization options and fixes are a big step in the right direction. Game mode, weapon, and character balancing have been rare during the life of Quake Champions, so all of these being included in the new fall update could be great for loyal players. If the previous release schedule is any indication, the next update is scheduled for mid-December. See the full patch notes below. NEW MAP: DEEP EMBRACE"And when the day arrives, I'll become the sea.
