Anyone still play Quake 3?

[hypn0tik]

Started playing again. Ah the memories. I realized why I quit in the first place. It was way too addictive.

Anyone up for some CTF?

Update:

In case anyone is interested, I usually get an hour or two in on this server:

70.85.241.52
Default port.

My handle is the same as my AT nick.

Tribes 2 rocked.

I was a fanatical Quake 2 player, but Q3 always rubbed me the wrong way. The whole thing, especially the guns, was too sci-fi for me, and I especially disliked the little "ding-ding" noise when you shot an opponent (as opposed to the grunts and screams in Q2).

I was playing Q2 back on a 24.6K dialup connection, with 400 pings, railing people left and right and getting kicked by stupid n00bs who said I was an "aimbot".

Aye, maybe it's my age, but Quake 2 and the original UT are the only "classic" deathmatch/CTF FPSs for me.

I remember playing Team Fortress as a mod for Quake 1. The engineer could build a turret, and the spy could disguise well (I can't remember the other classes too well)

Q2, CTF with offhand grapple killed all others, especially on a good server.

Q3 did get at me the wrong way also. I am a fan of singleplayer linear storylines, something Q3 missed from its predecessors.

Quake 2 CTF w/ Grapple (Zoids?) was the best game I've ever played in my life. If people still played it I would install it and play.
God I miss that game and I'm not much of a gamer anymore.

:thumbsup:

I wasted so many hours of my youth playing Q2 CTF...then again with UT a few years later...

 

[halik]

half life was awesome... with all the different roles you can play in TF. Spies were the funnest by far...i remeber being scared the guys with rotary machineguns

All the time, I'm a big InstaUnlagged fan and try to get a few maps in each night to keep my aim and reflexs sharp.

Never got into Q3, but Q2 and Q1 especially were my glory days of online gaming. I wonder if anyone is still even on those servers?

Last I bothered to look, they were developing a mod to have Q2 and Q1 run well on todays PC's

Although I probably read the website wrong, and haven't bothered to look it up since.

 

[Stumps]

yes, I never really stopped playing Q3A.

 

[yhelothar]

yup quake3 rawks.
I mostly play botmatch though. Q3 servers are almost always laggy for me.

 

[Slacker]

Been playing it since the hardware test leaked back in spring of '99

I probably have skipped but a handfull of days in the past seven years.

I agree!

 

[HamburgerBoy]

No, Quake III is just one of iD's many bad computer games.

Used to play the Q3Ademo every now and then.
