Congratulations, Brazil! I can't believe iD has ignored such a large population for so long. I think it's great you all came together to make this happen.

yeah i get what you mean.. i'm using mine only cuz it's much bigger than the Razorfish hard pad i was using (which wasn't big enough cuz i'd always run out of runway, so to speak)
mine's getting...
A group of people can always set up an IRC channel if they want group chat. Group voice chat is done already with Teamspeak, Mumble, etc. (which also allow text chat)

it's not the graphics that matter anyhow, really. it's the game mechanics that matter, and they're the reason people have played this for 13+ years. No other game equals this one. Unreal...
yeah, Chicago is much improved. used to get pings in the 60's there, now it's in the 20's. (I'm in Toronto)
DC is impressive as well. I get pings in the 20's there, too.. better than the old New...
In reply to OP:
Ever think maybe you're just getting older and your time has passed? Things change.. new generations supplant us... yada yada. Nothing can stay the same forever, and those who...
I love ball mice.. I never played better than I did when I used a ball mouse.. it's a shame they're so hard to find these days!
And who cares what people think about your playing? The sun is...

ooooh i am a fellow T dot resident.
i'm a thrice-a-month quake live indulgence kind of person though, so my usage would be minimal anyhoo
You want to know why iD doesn't attract new players? It's cuz people are too cheap to pay for things they enjoy. They reason 'hey if it's free now, why pay for it?'
And that was iD's mistake in...
looool no, there will be no 'revival'. it's iD's last gasp, concerning Quake anyhow...
People are too cheap to pay for what they use. That's all it comes down to. They expect too much for free.
it stands to reason that if you play the game, enjoy the game, keep coming back to play it regularly, then yes, you should pay for it.
Unfortunately, 'I CAN PLAY THIS SHI*T FOR FREE, SO WHY PAY?'...
yes, they are a scam. no reason to pay more than $40 for a proper mouse to play this game. If you're paying more, you're getting *swindled* and you're being suckered by the brand name.

Nothing is free forever. If you get use out of something and enjoy it, then it stands to reason you should be willing to support it monetarily at a certain point.
