Easily one of the best games you can play now. Q3 still stands strong =)

I play at least a couple of nights per week and occasionally a couple of my friends will hop on a duel server and play against each other, all while laughing at our own incompetence. You owe yourself to check this game out if you haven’t already, hey it’s free.

And I particularly love it because of the customisation it allows… 120 field of view is so sweet! =)

Max dH:
The player base I guess.
If you are fine with the player base that is left in Q3a then by all means stay there.

I for one really enjoy Quake Live, I recently hit the 1000 games played mark, most of them CTF.
The added cvars are also very nice. (Yes, I know that most of these are available in CPM)

On the other hand, I will have to see what kind of premium services will be offered. I have no need for private servers as I am clanless, and I don´t see that changing soon.
But I´m sure others will appreciate it, it´s being asked for in the forums quite often.

I own quake 3 arena,so why should i spend money , or even time on quake live?
Is there any Reason quake live is to be seen as an improvement over Q3 Arena?

Quake Live is a great game and all that is good about the Internet and games developers. Amen.

I never said it for a game before, but now is the time: Quake Live is the best game ever.
It’s just perfect : the speed, the strategy, the ease of use… everything is good in QL.
I played 250+ CTF games in the last 2 months and I still don’t have enough of it.

Doesn’t support your main browser? I find it difficult to believe it can be worth supporting your main browser in that case.

And charging for the rental/usage of dedicated servers you can control is standard practice. In fact, some people refuse to play games without them!

I thought the whole point of Quake Live was that it was free. Are they honestly trying to get people to pay for a basic functionality like private matches?

I’ve found Quake Live to be pretty much as I feared before it came out: spread too thin, too much of a hassle to log on and play through the website (especially since it doesn’t support my main browser), and with a heavily entrenched player base that makes it difficult for someone who didn’t live and breathe quake 3 in 1999 to get into it.

I reallyed loved Rocket Areana back in the day ( Although I believe I played it on Unreal Tournament 2004 or something) And I loved Jail Break too ^_^

The id team have done a stunning job with Quake Live. Once your hooked you don’t need another fps.

I’ve not been able to play for the last month and a half (no net connection) and instead of finding my gaming kicks elsewhere I just stopped gaming! Nothing matches it.

I should get a permanent connection this week though ^^
