anyone here play Quake 3 (be it regularly or otherwise)? I’ve kinda got back into playing it after a few months whilst I was revising and finishing my art course. So if anyone fancies some gaming, just lemme know. I tend to play Threewave (ctf mod) mostly, but OSP or regular q3 are just as good alternatives.

PM me if you fancy a game 🙂

I love Q3. I’m more or a CTF fan than anything else. I’d be willing to play if anyone wants to set up something.

yeah, i was talking to kit about how bad the netcode is atm.  
we’ll find a public server, that should help with some of the lag problems… whereabouts are you? need to find a place as close to both you and the UK as poss (hopefully not the middle of the atlantic ;))

hehe, asphalt, I live in denmark (right beside you), so it shouldn’t be too hard to find a “local” server 🙂

edit: btw A, what kind of maps do you prefer? I was thinking about cooking up a new map… CTF? DM? RAMBOW???

I love rambow matches =)

haven’t tried rambo yet, but I read the manual… it sounds fun! 🙂  
at the moment, I prefer DM because I’m still getting used to playing it, but I had a 2v2 with me and Soul against 2 bots which was fun. I tried a public game of 3v3 CTF, but spent most of the time 4v2 lol, so that wasn’t great 🙂

new map eh? sounds cool… we’ll have to be your beta testers 😉

Voetsjoeba and BlastBoy: very cool, very cool. I used to play CS before it went all to sh_t with hacks and w_nkers. q3: we’ll have to find a server that everyone has a half-decent ping on and play - if we can’t do that, we’ll have to play on a small OSP 1v1 server and duel it out 🙂

be prepared to get 0wned 😉

I’m up for a game or two tonight of Soldat with you guys… 🙂

Soul has been kicking my arse for the most part, but I whipped him at Capture the Flag twice the other night, so I’m on a roll. :bad:

Most of the time though, I am truly pants without the aid of Worms-style exploding sheep. :sure: 😛
