(it makes me sick to admit this too - oh my GOD how i hated Unreal)
but the weapons impress me now, (i.e. no sissy sounding crystal gun), and the secondary fire on the weapons makes for some interesting battles. haven\'t played online yet, but this 37.3 connection keeps me from doing that too often anyways. (oh, poor me - i know) ;^)
can\'t wait for Q3, got my advance order from blue\'s waiting for me at release, but i have to admit, it\'s certainly got a HELL of a lot more competition than i previously thought. UT bashers say what you like, but i don\'t think that you\'d be getting so upset if you didn\'t see it as a \"threat\" to the everholy id.
lets face it, id\'s been tops for SO long, it\'s about time that they got the fire under their ass to make sure that they release a good game. so all should give Epic the respect that they deserve, even if you hate UT, because now id has to try even harder to win us all over. that way, we all win. let\'s hear it for co-existence!
sorry... i\'ll shut up now. ciao!

At least I have a Celeron366 at 567 and that makes up for only having a V2,
At least when I start law school next year, I\'ll be able to intern for some serious coin until I graduate and then I will be able to afford a truly state of the art system. And DSL too!
#75: If you can afford a new vid card every 6 months, you\'re not poor. Maybe you left something out, maybe you work a job or something. But from where I\'m standing right now it looks like you don\'t pay for everything. That\'s different than having to pay rent and food all on your own.
Umm, poor college student decision - \"Should I spend my last $250 on a GeForce or should I buy a Dreamscape for my bigscreen? Hmm, I don\'t get my weekly $500 allowance for another 3 days... it sucks to be poor\"
Fuck you dude, I\'m a truly poor college student and I can\'t afford even a used $100 videocard! Have you ever had to buy your own books and pay your own rent? Didn\'t think so...
i have a p2-300, TNT, and 96mb ram...the demo runs great for me otherwise...
ive never played a game as much as ive been playing q3a single player...must...get...higher...accuracy...award...
shit, ive got a midterm on monday, id is a bunch of bastards...if i flunk out of school they better give me a job...
That guys whinings were more sad than funny.
According to him, the shaft is more lagged now.
Icons in simple item mode are \"gay\".
The first \"start/intro/newbie\" map should have been a marvel of architectural wonder and strategic play.
and Romero was the driving force in id. erm, yeah sure.....
hakeem has always liked ut better than q3a, but who cares?...he can bitch all he wants...
Getting back to Quake 3, If you want to start a single player team match without messing with the menu, try this:
Save teamplay.cfg in your demoq3 folder, and start q3 like this:
quake3.exe +exec teamplay.cfg
You can edit each of the bots skill levels independently... works for me!
// start teamplay.cfg
seta cg_drawTeamOverlay 1
seta g_quadfactor 2
seta g_weaponrespawn 3
seta g_gametype 3 // teamplay
set fraglimit 100
map q3dm7
addbot sarge 5 blue;wait;wait
addbot grunt 4 blue;wait;wait
addbot visor 4 red;wait;wait
addbot stripe 5 red;wait;wait
addbot major 4 red;wait;wait
wait;wait;team blue
wait;say_team I am the team leader
// end teamplay.cfg
I really need this
