8.msdoss bad just should have said no
7.id helpful HA in a pigs eye.
6.My divorce was a hell of alot easier to go through then installing a patch from ID!
5.hey they just shoulda added off hand grapple to have everyone bitching about that instead of the new patch fixes.
4.i have memorized my cd key backwards!!!
3.Id should given out vasalene with the new patch that way we wouldnt feel so cheap when they did us up the ass.
2.quote from ID's readme.text "heh thats right you all never read this stuff anyway so surprise this patch wasnt intended to work :p, this will teach you all!!!"
1.ID's deffinition of beta patch "hey we got some time before team arena comes out lets fuck with people for a bit."

im rocking an old school voodoo2 12 meg blackmagic board and im using wicked 3d drivers OR the latest voodoo driver.

For starts the ID logo that stomps out the metal in the begining is 10x bigger and i only see the top right corner of it and its totally low quality

second if i run a game on the local host it flashes back and forth from the loading screen and the skirmish settings screan...then when its finally loaded the screen is full of textures (like in a list of all the textures int the game) but you can hear noises like the game is actually running and control them

i hope this helps, all i know is im high and my q3 doesnt work! ME WANTS MY Q3!

*snip*

LOL this sucks....time to go back to CS

Once again,"I am in the lead" j!

I want to download this patch, but I also want to play Rocket Arena.

Fuck.

OK, a really annoying bug has rear itself in the point release. It involves the CD key. If you are running version 1.25y and connect to a server running v1.25 (original release), the game overwrites your CD key. You have to re-enter the key to play on-line again.

I like the 1.25 patch,I have no complaints about the way the game plays,I like it.Besides,I don't need no frickin floor damage or strafe jumping-just a mouse five keys and I'm all-set,of course a brain wouldn't hurt-can ya fix me up?

MAC: No one is going anywhere,till we find out who thing is!

Here is my error:

Ok, I was able to reproduce the q3key issue 100%. It happens when you connect to an original 1.25 server which is incompatible with 1.25y.

We'll get this looked into ASAP.

hmmmmm,what's this do? underline

And I haven't mention how balance is the game... monk kills a dragon in 1 hit... the best weapons can sometmes be found at the begining... and more... just buy the game and you will see how good/bad it is... if u haven't of course.

246: I understand u like the game... but you cannot lie. There are bugs... Someone in the forum was complaining he cannot even go out of a town... because of a bug... another one say he finish a quest because a vampire got stuck in a wall... bug... Even me... my gaulet doesn't do what it say... having an ac less than 10 does nothing... someone reported he has more spells than what he was suppose to have... bug... I try to create a character similar to minc and notice he has more life than what he should have... well maybe it is me... Some spells are completly idiotic... like a spell level 6 is worse than level 3... forgot the name... but both do similar stuff... computer will crashes non stop in some particular condition... blablabla...

Ok, verified the q3key issue with the file being re-initialized to no key. Sorry about this guys. I've emailed the programmers and we'll have this resolved by the next release.

Until then though, you can enter "attrib +r q3key" in your baseq3 directory to write protect it.

I found incredible that no company can come up with a game not too buggy... I mean playable.


All the best gaming companies now sucks like hell and have deliver not lousy but extremelly buggy product: Quake3, Diablo2, and now Baldur Gates2(Shit I am playing it and I got already a bug!).


The only product that was ok in term of bugs was UT.

What's with this CDKEY stuff I'm hearing about under 1.25y ? Can anyone reproduce this. I tried this in-house and didn't have a problem. if you can outline the issue with how to resolve it, please e-mail me directly.

-xian@idsoftware.com

Thanks cygnus X-1 but it is an internal network IP :)

236: Maybe... but the game was playable (at least for me) when it was released.



Diablo2 skills were modified after people have played for month on their necro. It was also crashing like hell.

Baldur Gates2 is crashing for some people... and have all kind of other weird bugs. Stats in BG2 does mean nothing. I have a gaunlets that give +20% to stealing but I get only 10%?

I guess Quake3 is the only one that I should have remove from my list of game that has too many bugs... I still find it weird that they modify the slash damage only now... his kind of modify maybe the gameplay ... but it is hell late.

Obviously it's too tough a concept to understand.

You shoot to the ceiling. The ceiling STOPS the explosion. Unless of course the platform brakes. not an option in q3.

A rocket jump will kill someone obviously. Guess what? The body is FLYING IN THE DIRECTION THE EXPLOSION DICTATES.

The feel is definitely 1.17ish now, which is good. It is, however, still framerate specific, because the DM13 jump won't work at com_maxfps 100 for me, but it does at 125/126.

Floor dmg is still gone. :(

That new splash damage looks cool. Too bad I already bought UT... and I don't plan to switch now.

Well if Cygnus-X's pak rocks I'm gonna be fucking happier than hell tonight. I just shot it to my home computer from work here using remote administrator (nice proggie). Got a fat baggie at home and nothing to do until 7pm tomorrow. ((first date in three years, anythign new the kids these days are doing i should know about? I got rimming down already) kiddin!)

24 hours of q3 and a new sound pak sounds like a plan.

thanks!

or whatever server crash it was, i have forgotten now. :P

Xian -


regardless of our bitching and a couple of my pet peeves....

Q3 OWNZ US ALL.

ps: thanks for setting up a listen server and letting me show you the /teamsay crash in the test days as soon as I told you about it on IRC, and fixing it for the next release.

sweet response time.

For q3 sounds, also try http://www.mindgrid.net and download the audio pak and update pack. I kinda like that sound pak and I'm downloading cygnus's as I speak

type

:::DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS PATCH:::

I you don't want to type your cdkey 10 times in 1 minute, or if you dont want to have a 1 percent chance of joining a game stick with 1.25 or 1.17

THIS PATCH SUCKS

BRUTAL thanks for the compliment on my site. I think the default sounds in Q3 blow so I came up with my own. I think its been downloaded over 2,000 times by now. I'm gonna release a new one soon.

last file of photoshop 6 is sending now

The voc_holyshit.wav has been changed. It now says holy cow, which sounds very ghey.
