I play quake3 rocket arena nearly every evening, I haven't found a single fps game that comes close to the same adrenalin rush that this game can give. Because it's an old game good servers are limited there are only 4 or 5 servers that are playable in the uk with 3 of them being main ones.
One of them is called Frag Matrix this is hosted by an individual who seems to have a short fuse and is power mad so many ppl despise him and often find them selves banned for no reason. The other 2 server are HKDM Map1 and 11 both good server full every evening.
It would be great if you could get an RA3 server up, would have to be minimum 20 player server ideally 32. If you need any admin help with quake3 severs I am available, like yourself I have been with the quake community for some time.

Don't you need QuakeWorld to run a Quake 1 Server?

First off Lo m8 long time no spam, finally got my net back after 3yrs :D:
Any chance of getting that kots2007 server up and running that you mentioned :confused: If you need any info, i'm either in your irc chan, or in #kots thanks Buzz. :awesome:
gregster
6th January 2008, 12:44
ok kots2007 the mod seems to not like something to do with how it is setup on our servers how ever our techies are looking into it and we are in contact with the mod makers to resolve the issue
quake1 is on hold while we concentrate of the kots2007 issue once thats resolved ill move on to the quake1 seting up
any links to fixes etc for the opengl stuff would be great as at present i cant run quake on my pc which causes major issuses for me in testing and admining a quake server
might call on you as a server admin Buzz :P
Buzz
6th January 2008, 15:56
Yea won't have a problem helping out m8, still working shifts, so someone else to help would be good, I recomend tosk btw, he knows a lot more about server issues than i do, you can find him in any of these #mpukquake #kots or #wpq2. Thanks for any help you can give m8. Buzz :awesome:

Badly gagging for a QW server,
There seems to be a few servers that setup so everything can be done within by players unless u take piss an admin comes in and BANS UR ASS!
Example one sever I use, u can type in console 1on1, 2on2, 4on4, FFA etc to set it up for that.
Then just type the maps u want in console what most typed is loaded.
Such a awesome game QW.
Can we get a server defo! somne 1v1, some ffa! kick arse
Maybe a fun online league from MPUK!
QW is best game ever LMAO and its so old!
gregster
8th January 2008, 22:26
ah the days of FFA with nail guns :)
i have a linux server runing at home now so ill see if i can sus it

GET READY FOR QUAKE LIVE!!! ;)

26th February 2008, 13:57
Nobody ever answered this for me, why would you want to play quake live when you have the originals?? Is there something I'm missing?? :confused:

26th February 2008, 14:52
Quake 1 with KQP!
I will be on that server for ages.
I can remeber playing quake 1 over 2 laptops with a serial cable.
KQP = killer quake patch
IT was amazing you could have nukes and guided misiles!

Yeah. You will have an updated version of the game, you can play it on any computer anywhere, any time, the servers and all things in your profile will be available with your login, community community community. It will all be right there. Think Halo 3 stuff. i assume that is what Quake Live is bringing. Oh and its free. The big thing you need to know is it could potentially bring alot of new players and we are in dire need. Especially in this noob console game takeover.

quake3 along with the other quakes has been quiet over the last few months
im supposed to be sorting out all the servers geting mods up that peeps want etc
unfortunatly im having net problems and this is realy interfering with this plan
at present BT admit i have a problem with my BB but as it happens at night
they will only send an engineer out if i pay them lots of money to fix there line "$%$^^%
my isp is working on this at present and i will try to get some stuff done
but uploading files etc is not an option as it seems they can go corupt due to the massive errors on my line :(
