I finally got in a week ago, & i'm having great fun.

I wasn't into gaming when Q3 was big, but i had played it a bit, & as i love pretty much all really fast paced shooters, i knew i'd likely enjoy this.

I played Q4, but it kinda paled compared to UT2k4 at the time, & Painkiller, while good, wasn't too popular, & i didn't like the weapon [lack of] balance, or many of the MP maps.

But Quake Live, man it's great stuff :D

Runs nicely @ 2560x1600, & it's pretty much as good as Q3, but through a browser :)

Very few people ever playing, I got in recently too :( was disappointed that it's just like every other good FPS in that no one plays it.

I'm in the beta and it's great, it's basically Quake 3 with better netcode and spruced up and streamlined with tons of online features.

You can still even play offline with bots for practice and arena scouting, I love it, no changes were made to the core game, it's still very much Quake 3 Arena, this is the way shooters were made back in the day when they were not dumb console ports.

How the hell is this game still in beta? Haven't they been working on it for a long time now? And why are so few invites going out? I gave up on trying to get one because no one was giving them out and submitting my email address on quakelive.com has been pointless too.

Well, i entered my email for the beta shortly after it first launched, & it took till recently for them to let me in...

It was worth the wait though; just wish more people were in it, or they'd open it up to the public.

I've been wanting to play this for a couple of months now...

Though, no modding available so it's back to baseQ3 mode (i.e. no ability to /cg_enemymodel Keel) :p
