First Post!

So far, \"hardcore\" is the difficulty for me. :) They do me up just fine on 1v1\'s. I smacked Sarge and Klesk around, but Hunter was a pain until I could manage to deny her the lg. With the lg and that CLASSIC taunt of hers, Hunter\'s a keyboard pounder for sure (me, I usually slam my mouse unfortunately).

Anarki\'s got me a couple of times right when I walk through one of the doors; the bastard\'s damn near omnipotent. He\'s also much better at juggling ya at HC level. Heh... #42... I know exactly what ya mean.

Plenty of awesome demos here, including nightmare xaero.

#45

A couple of people have posted demos of beating Xaero in hardcore and nightmare.

Don\'t ask me where to get them, cause I don\'t know where they are.

By the way #24 , so far it has been a waste of time to try playing Q3 online with 56k. And actually playing the bots on hardcore or nightmare is hella lot of fun.

Anyone beat Xaero on Hardcore? It seemed relatively easy to go through all the other levels but this guy hits you from anywhere with the rail.
He can\'t hit squat when you play him Hurt Me Plenty unless he is close. Man he just zaps the crap outta you in Hardcore.

39: You think I\'m l33t? cool... lez b friends. :-)

Also, I\'d like to make a correction... I said tourney5 was my favorite.. that waas a typo of course... I meant tourney3. And did anybody else have the same pattern as me while playing the bots?... I basically played through the game on hardcore, but had to switch to nightmare in 1v1\'s (whoa, except xaero, of course) cuz they just seemed to easy... (well, not easy, but)... maybe I was just intimidated by his judo chop action, but I think i coulda took him. yep.

Do a rail/shotgun combo if you wanna beat Anarki (on a high difficulty level) without smashing your keyboard like I did. He has insane rail aim, so be sure to keep your health high, but more importantly, your rail accuracy needs to be up to par if you want a fighting chance.

anarki is a bitch on hardcore, not cos his aim is insane but because his reaction time and awareness are insane...90% of the time he gets the first shot on me and then i spend like 5secs trying to figure out where he is shooting from...i will put the smack down on him tho, just as i have put the smack down on hardcore klesk...

my favorite maps are actually the ones that require good rail skills...once you get good at railing it is very satisfying...

I cant even beat the last map because it runs so shitty on my system..

Finished the game on Hurt Me Plenty last week and now I\'m trying to run through it on Hardcore. I\'m stuck on q3tourney4, cuz Anarki is a rail FIEND! I imagine if I improve my rail, I can camp the rl and win, because although he\'s murder w/ rail, he doesn\'t often go get it. Just for laffs, I ran some 1v1\'s w/ Anarki and Xaero and although Xaero won the majority of matches, they were pretty damn close.

What can I say, I like these bots. The personalities and characters are a definite plus. Remains to be seen whether Orbb and Klesk are gonna stand up to a Raiden or Subzero... ;)

P.S. Mustaine Madness and the Q3WCTF\'s KICK ASS!

azn9irl is l33t ;)

Lemme guess.. 24 is an lpb... yeah I thought so...
Anyways, tourney5 absolutly is my favorite 1v1 map... especially when I\'m playing against stupid ppl. The score is usually around 20 to -5 like it was in q1 days of 1v1... however, tourney1 comes in a close second (easy to control). bouncy maps do not thrill me at all. I\'d rather have a tight/enclosed/circular/arena type map that I can rj up to places or have close encountered fights.. instead of having a rail hit you from across the map, onlly to knock you into space, while you spastically hit \'fire\', but have to wait until you die to respawn. That pisses me off. It\'s like.. yay, you hit me while standing completly still with the help of that zoom function (which I never use, and probaly never will). I don\'t know, i guess it just doesn\'t seem as fast paced as I like it to be. That maps in q3a are O-K, imo. Nothing to drool over though (I\'m talking design/layout, not graphics).

#28: Great. Word is id is going out of business because they lost $40.

q3dm17 and q3dm18 (the one with the plats, right?) are the best, I really enjoy them, q3dm17 especially makes the action really fast and furious, q3dm18 is a little slow unless you have a ton of players/bots, but if you\'re doing like 4 players, it\'s gonna be slow...

Earthlink here in So Cal (whittier) has MAJOR packetloss, so I can\'t even play online at all, I need to complain to earthlink, thats why I play bots...

I played a little Q2 across my network with a friend last night with some Ice bots and Eraser bots and realized how much the q3 bots rule, compared to the Ice/Eraser bots, Q3 Bots are one step away from being completely human and realistic in my mind...

If only watching the game through their eyes wasnt so weird (They can run through the ENTIRE map backwards while shooting, and NEVER looking to make sure which way they\'re going, WTF!?)

I seem to be on my own on this one but I love q3tourney4 for 1 on 1 action but I\'d have to give Veldrin mad props for his Somewhat Damaged level, very nice.

Ph

q3tourney5 rocks. Too much fog? That\'s what makes it interesting! It\'s one of the more original maps, and I appreciate innovation. I like q3dm1 and q3tourney1 a lot as well. Simple, great maps.

Did I miss something ? Was Daikatana released ?
Can I have my Daikatana fried?
Will we be able to get it .....baked ?
Is there a streamed .....Daikatana ?
O well I guess there will be no Daikatana at all for a little longer ?

worst map... q3tourny5
too much FUCKING fog
hehe
best ctf maps... all of them.. but zoid\'s q3wctf maps are the icing :)
best dm.. 10 13 15 7 17
tourney6 owns for some good ol fasion push button watch enemy die heehe (frag pipe) hehe

I gotta go with that space ctf map (ctf4?)
god i love that map
Ive gotten huge scores on that map before too
Its just so much fun!

Because loosers like you on the net are SKANK. my hand beats any crap i find lying about on \'public servers\' *gack*

least the bots can AIM...

go live when you can do the jive...

Radula.

24, im sorry im so lame for playing bots, ill try to change so i can be accepted by your llama ass

22, boy your psycho analysis on me sure proved your right!
boy o boy

Ha, as if #19.. Q3DM13 is about as much fun as sex.

Thanks!

-Lex

i really like 11 and 12, (both large)
i find myself looking for dm15 servers alot, i like how they make you get the bfg
i still like dm19, that\'s a classic now ;)
out of all the tourneys i like 1 and 2 the best
and ctf 1 is my favorite ctf map (even though im not much of a ctf player.)


-TomServo-

Oh yeah, and Q3DM13 is pretty fun, despite looking relatively simple. It\'s very vertical, and it has a few very interesting organic touches.

One of my favourite maps would have to be Q3DM9 (Hero\'s Keep). I like the architecture, and the fact that it\'s not all that easy to get away with the rocket launcher; your only way off the platform it\'s on is through an accelerator pad. I\'ve come face-to-face with someone else there more than once...

Other favourites for me include a couple of tourney maps, largely in their single-player play (Q3Tourney3 and Q3Tourney5). I generally enjoy all the maps, though, even if the bots may cause me to hate them. :)

Morning everyone.
