Just wondering if anyone wants to hook up to whip my butt in Quake III and teach me some tricks :D

I'm on 1.32 at the moment, but can easily switch to prior versions.. I play CTF for the most part, (Q3CTF4 all the way!!). Maybe someone has a server we can hold an SL convention on!! But thats probably thinking lucky. I'm probably off to bed soon (UKer), but if you send me a PM or post, I'll get in touch :D

My housemate too his Q3 CD with him when he left. :(

I could... um... aquire a copy given a couple of days, but IIRC we'd need to set up a 'special' server to use it. Plus I'm finishing off a project for handin tomorrow, so couldn't join in straight away.

I expect I could be up and running on Half Life 2 by tomorrow evening though, if you're still gonna be bored by then.

I haven't played Quake III since I had my Dreamcast out. Put that away when I got a Pentium 4 in 2001.

*whistling* I used to play it. Now I've got Battlefield 2 taking up my life, as well as Half-Life2, FarCry, UnReal Tournament 2004, Doom 3 and one of my favs- Postal 2:Share The Pain!!

I'm willing to sell my family if they release Elder Scrolls:Oblivion SOON! begging-> pleasepleasepleaseohplease!!!!

Hmmmm, might have to revisit Q3. Have you tried out Quake 4 yet? I tried the demo & it was Sweeet!!!!

Quake 4 was okay, nothing special though - certainly not a patch on HL2. And the final boss was really disapointing.

Hmmm, makes me wonder if ID has tanked. Doom 3 was alright, graphically outstanding, but the game play felt so....eck!

Well, IIRC Q4 was mainly developed by Raven, so really it's just Doom 3 that Id have slipped with. Doom RPG was well recieved, so Carmack must still have some idea what he's doing.

I didn't mind Q4. I'm in most games for the multiplayer aspect, and Q3 is what I'm on at the moment, altho I loved HalfLife2 as a game, the multiplayer I saw wasn't as easy to controll, although the graphics were far better. As for Q4 I only played the demo. The multi player is apauling from what I've seen, but the playable levels/missions were pretty sweet. Just not a touch on HL2 :D

Q3A is still my 'twitch' FPS I fall back on, its just so smooth. Sometimes UT2003, etc..

If you want to play, just post or something...better yet if you have a dedicated server somewhere, or just spot one on the net that is usually empty...

Well, the patch I've got on my drive is 1.32, but I can probably do any given the time to find it.
