What I liked about it was being able to play Q3 without having to download endless mods because thats the only servers around anymore.
Also I was hoping they would get a handle on the cheating with Quakelive but it seems people can still do it. Hopefully if they can cut the cheating out, it will be worth it.

Hmm, vanilla Quake 3 still has tons upon tons of servers without the mods. But yeah - Live would be more popular seeing as it's "newer" anyway.I Live...AGAIN wrote:What I liked about it was being able to play Q3 without having to download endless mods because thats the only servers around anymore.

quake live is total s***. only good thing about it is the online stats and match-making.
the lag is ubearable, i can't hit anything with 80 latency. while in challenge pro-mode ping range of 150-200 is very comfortable.
plus, it's still vanilla q3, what's so great about that. well, maybe a nicer gui and hud.
and, the lack of good maps.
oh yeah, it's also free, which is a plus, but that's because id is probably testing this online stats/match-making stuff to improve it and implement in their future games.

Hey, there's nothing wrong with vanilla Quake3! =) I actually prefer it, every once in awhile I'll load up Generations. .
Has anyone played the DC port of Quake3? It's pretty fun.

well nothing wrong with q3, i still play it myself from time to time.
playin' CPMA mod though.
after getting used to it, vanilla q3 feels like a cripple trying to get some nice speed or perform a fast rail-sg combo or something like that.
you know, as with everything in life, you get used to good things really fast :)

My biggest hope for QuakeLive was that it was going to be watched by the developers closely enough that they would be able to cut out the cheating, instead of just relying on punkbuster which really doesn't work IMO.
While they have done a fair job of that there are still plenty of cheaters in QL. They claim to be working on it and it does seem to have less cheating than regular Q3, but we'll see.
