Serious question, how many years did you practice for this?

Hard to tell. Depends on how we look at it. The first time I played this game was when I was around 3-6 in the early 2000's, so I got familiar with the Arena First Person Shooter environment very early on. I played the game for a few more years every now and then against BOTs. Then, when I was around 10-11 years old I started playing Counter-Strike: Source for a few years and started competing in it. Years went by and I also switched to Counter-Strike: Global Offensive in the meantime and played it on a semi-professional level for a few more years. During this, Quake Live came out and I have played it on a hobby level on public ranked duel servers alongside continously competing in Counter-Strike. Then, when Quake Champions came out in 2017 and I was 22 years old I left CS behind and started playing QC competitively for a few years. So, I had a very strong AFPS background. Then, last year during fall I remembered how much I loved playing Quake III Arena as a kid and bought the game on my Steam account. Installed it and played through the campaign on the hardest difficulty. I noticed you can get medals rewarding your performance during the matches and one of them was the "Perfect" medal that is given to you when you complete the map without dying once. I figured I'm going to challenge myself and try to achieve all 26 of these medals. (1 for each campaign map.) I did this during a twitch stream of mine where I also had a timer set up so that we could see how fast I could do it. I struggled with it for a few days but eventually managed to complete the whole campaign from start to finish (all 26 maps) in one sitting without dying once. The time was kinda slow, as I prioritized safety over speed, but for a first ever completion I was happy with it. Eventually, I started grinding the game some more and got better at it. Managed to find some new and improved tactics and gained confidence. I attempted this challenge once again and got this run in the video. So between me starting this whole project in the fall of 2022 and achieving this current World Record run in the video that happened in January, 2023 not much time has passed, only a few months, but if we look at the big picture... you get the idea. :P Fun fact: After this run, I started speedrunning the levels individually and achieved some insanely fast times on most maps. I also managed to take over the World Record time for the "With Deaths" category where I successfully completed the whole campaign on "Nightmare!" difficulty in less than half an hour. That was in march and here's the link for it if anyone is interested: kzread.info/dash/bejne/pH57mNduYdu0g6w.html So I'm very confident that I could improve on this "39:22 Deathless" time if I attempted it again, as I have gotten way better at the game since this run. Only thing is, it would require me to start grinding it again and it would be very, VERY difficult to actually pull it off. Doable, but it would be a lot of work. I might try it one day... :)

​@@myztroRAISYcongratulations! Really like Quake III Arena, reminds me on childhood..respect to your effort! I never saw someone shoot so accurate with plasma 👊

Knows exactly where spawn points are, where every weapon is, where are the extra rounds are, where Mega health and Quad damage are and even when they generate. Knows exactly where all the characters go, where they fall down and where they jump. He also knows that he may be killed if he waits for the second round of rail gun to load, so he shoots with the machine gun first to lower the health of each opponents and then he fires the rail gun. I have played QTA alot when I was young but I didn't even think that Nightmare skirmish without dying would be possible. I'm out of words. Impressive.

He's also doing something with his movement, nightmare bots kind of predict and I saw them fire weird rocket shots and even miss machinegun fire, that's freaking uncommon. It's a great run, even in my best days I'd not be able to do it, he knows the pattern and path of the bots pretty well, also his timing is impeccable.

That's what I call a LEGENDARY run! Thank you for being a part of the Quake history and congrats on the new world record! 🙌🔥

So entertaining to watch. Brilliant playing.

I was as old as you are today when Q3A came out. Thanks for bringing the memories back and also fantastic video!

Unless the game is seriously bugged in relation to checkpoints, completing it without dying is always faster. In vast majority of games, any% is also deathless. For example if your quest progress or inventory or what have you is not reset on death, then death can be used as teleport which can save time on backtracking. But even then, this obviously only applies to dying on purpose. If you died inadvertently without reaching a desired milestone, you'll just have to trek the same path again, which is a straight time loss. In Quake3, this will be the time loss of finding the right weapon and walking to the right spot again, assuming none of the bots took your quad damage which is additional time loss.

That was very interesting to watch. Incredible performance! Thank you for uploading this and congratulations with the world record.

Absolutely impeccable, I don't think it can be overstated how challenging it is just to play on nightmare let alone perfectly.

@ARNDBDB sure, he's playing the campaign of quake 3 arena on the highest difficulty. This ai is accurate and punishes imperfect movement much harder than any other arena shooter I've played. Nightmare ai in q 3 arena is in my experience more accurate than the average human quake player. This is a speed run without dying. I had a hell of a time just getting through nightmare levels, especially the last level. For comparison, doom eternal on nightmare is easy, It took me 1 week of regular play to complete. Raisy is shaping up to be the Zeromaster of Quake. I'd love to see him do a deathless run of the q2 remaster

@@eyesofadonai I finished Q3 on nightmare back in the days and I can confirm it was an insane grind - most levels took me dozens of tries (some might have even taken me 100+) and it was usually a very close victory. That being said, I prefered UT99 and I found it harder against bots despite playing it more. Never finished it on Godlike, only Inhuman (the second hardest difficulty) - and it felt about as difficult as Q3 on nightmare.

Loved hopping onto Quake 3 to frag some bots as a kid, I especially loved custom maps. A bit later on I'd make some long time friends when I eventually started playing on servers and played in a few clans years later, I'd make a 'Quake II Arena' for the Quake 2 remaster with all new sounds, music and HUD

Well played!

This was unreal ! It took me days to get through all the nightmare tiers, until I hit a brick wall with Xaero, where I could barely manage a frag. Incredible performance

This game was my jam!!! It was well up there with the Unreal Tournament franchise. Quake Champions does not give me the same enjoyment that this one did. Quake Live doesn't quite feel the same way either. Of late it would seem that Arena Shooters are not a popular nowadays as they were back in the day. I have great memories of adding a lot of mods to Quake 3 Arena from FilePlanet and PlantetQuake and ModDb. Alternate Fire was probably my favorite mod. Quake 3 Arena will always hold a special place in my heart. Greatest FPS I've ever played!

Absolute legend!

Well done, Raisy!

I'm much older than most here. Started shooting with Wolfenstein 3D. A friend from that era became a Doom fanatic and pulled me along, but I preferred Bungie's Marathon trilogy because beside being a fine and stylish shooter it had an interesting plot, with enemies that turned into allies and some interesting discussions about artificial intelligence. It could have been the basis for a way better movie than Halo. I even modded my copy of Marathon with better sound effects that I edited myself. Eventually my true and eternal love came to be the Quake series, but unfaithfully I also had more fun that I deserved playing Unreal Tournament. A couple years later there were fiery Counter-Strike tournaments going on in every local LAN house. Instead of feeling glad I felt tired and moved on with other hobbies. Then, some years ago I got hold of ioQuake and it was like reliving a cherished personal memory, even this being a mass product. I managed to finish it in Nightmare but that took weeks, if not months, of on-and-off short trials, because I have little free time now. Upon seeing this astonishing run I learned a couple new things. One is that the machine gun is really useful when used sequentially with the shotgun. I must have lost many levels by sticking too much to a particular weapon. Got to practice again...

Bro is locked in. This is insane

The accuracy and map knowledge here is pretty crazy, I'd love to see a 1v1 with Fatal1ty lol

Apocalypse Void must actually be the single worst DM level ever. It's hard to believe it was a part of official release because it looks and feels like something a 12 year old would create, learning to use a level editor... One of the reasons I've always prefered UT99. Q3 really had some shit levels (also, the music was insanely boring / almost non existent in some of them) whereas UT had beautiful varied levels with amazing soundtrack (and let's not forget about bots with "personality" thanks to taunts that weren't just lines of text). Don't get me wrong, I like Q3 (finished it on NM back in the days too - though definitely not without deaths, LOL) but UT99 is just superior in many ways...

@@YensR I'll admit Q3 engine added an extra layer of mastering the movement (though I never cared much for it myself). Then again, I've mostly prefered UT because it packed much more variety (I actually loved the secondary fire modes), like other game modes and many different styles of levels (whereas it was all this techno-hell in Q3). UT for me was also the first game I ever played where playing against bots _felt_ a lot like playing against humans. The bots were smart, fun, loved their taunts - it felt like they actually _enjoyed_ killing me :D The Q3 bots on the other hands were just cold killing machines.
