R.I.P, QL. I liked you when it was free, i returned to Q3A when you made a cheap hooker of yourself.

A "rentable" more than a decade old game. Failquake is fail.

Your fault. The games i bought (Q3, CoD, Civ, Team Fortress, Starcraft, to name a few) are played frequently by me. For many years. I think in case of Q3 i paid about 4 $ per year if you split it up...

Buy Q3. Pay around 40 $, play forever. That's why premium is not accepted by most of the players.

I payed once for Q3. I got years of fun out of it. Why should i pay again for basically the same thing. Btw: Q3 is not dead, there are still enough servers around.

Quote: "I fired up Q3 a few mins ago and got a total of around 400 servers with players on (world wide, all game types, all mods)"

This. It's the only argument/reason why subscription of QL is...

Me. Definately. Can't get more fun if everyone else plays.

How come you know satisfied ppl are the majority? Show me the numbers pls.

Quoted for truth.

Subscription model = fail.

Hope they cancel that nonsense soon.

Another update for premium users. Another update noone cares about, because premium servers are all empty, because the majority of players won't pay for q3a again.

Well done.

Hopefully QL will...

It works perfectly in windowed mode online, it also works perfectly in fullscreen vs bots.
But if i connect on a server using fullscreen mode, i cannot enter ingame menu and can't open scoreboard....

Wake up. Starcraft 1 / Broodwar is 12 years old. Last patch for SC:BW was released early 2009.
So much for support and developement of a retail game without subscription crap.

It's easily doable,...

Quakelive is as fair as Q3A nowadays. And most ppl here already own a copy of Q3A. So they have to decide: Do i play QL with 125 fps while paying for it, or do i play Q3A with 125 fps without paying...

Did you even play SC1 and SC2? I don't think so, if you had, you would know that SC1 compares to SC2 maybe like Quake1 to Q3A. The difference is even bigger. It's not just polished graphics. It's a...

And the subscribtion model did not split the community? Now you have a few premium users idling on empty servers, and fewer free users than before, because of lack of new content.
Just let everyone...

I would agree with all that. Problem is, QL is not the reinvention of the wheel. It's a 10 year old game playable via browser. I like Quake, but i don't think it will sell this way. That's the...

Exactly, that's why i play QL.

And what exactly where we talking about before? Ah right, the way of financing QL. My point is: It can be done the oldschool way. No subscription model needed. Feel...

In two words: New players.

I don't want Quake to be what it once was, don't get me wrong. I just think the actual way of financing servers and development is wrong and can be done by doing it like i said.

I paid happily for SC2. I got a nice sp, a brilliant mp, plus tons over tons of usermaps.
I paid happily for Q3A. I got a fairly ok sp, a legendary mp, plus tons over tons of usermaps. I also...
