Why don't people play Quake 3: Team Arena?

How come no one plays Quake 3 Team Arena? We all know UT kicks ass and that maybe a big factor, however, it appears nobody gave Team Arena a chance. Everytime I log on to Team Arena, only a small few are online playing it. What's up with that?

Don't get me wrong, I was a hardcore quaker (1->3) but 3 just isn't as enjoyable.
Quake 2 was the best thing in the world.. ah well, TA sucks too!

Q4 will hopefully get me back.

I'm the opposite of phuz. Quake2 sucked ass.
In order of best to worst:

Quake 1
Quake 3
Quake 2

Yeah, for some reason, id just can't touch the gameplay of Quake 1. It seems so simple to duplicate...

"We all know UT kicks ass"

Personally, I think Unreal Tourney sucks ass

If by UT you meant the Urban Terror mod for Q3, then yeah, you're right. Everyone's playing that instead of Team Arena, which btw is almost as bad as Unreal tourney.

Urban Terror is where it's at now.

Single player Q2 was OK, but multiplayer it was just far too slow.
The lithium mod made it a little better, but Quake 1 is still a much better multiplayer game.

quake 1 is by far the best.. CTF3/4 was completely awesome.. quake 2 ctf was ok but it was nothing compared to 1.. and quake3 sucks bad.. UT is fun but its getting old.. i need something new!

Umm .. Counter-strike is where it's at.

Counter-strike has probably as many players as Wolf3D, Doom1/2, Quake 1/2/3, Unreal Tournament had combined.

yeah, no matter what people say, counterstrike is where its at, it EASILY has that many people online combined.

starcraft/diablo2 have a huge chunk too.
