quakelive is hated and full of bugs, and id in interviews when asked about quake 5 will say, there is always quakelive in a sarcastic way
quakelive might not die over night, the q4 engine might never be GPL`d, but there is a big chance of people playing Q43A on dedicated servers then there are now while only 20 regular people play Q4 every night with the 1.4.2 patch
thats why anyont should start cry now “Lord ! gimme Brink SDK, please !!”

isnt this the rumor: “id Tech 4 will be released as open source when Rage comes out (Q3 2011)” ?
Q43A sounds pretty interesting. I’m not a programmer but I have worked with some UScript (Unreal games). UT3 is a cool game (has all the old school gametypes) and is somewhat easy to mod for but probably similar to Q4 in that it has terrible online hit detection/netcode. If your looking for a somewhat modern game and game engine to work with why would Q4 be your choice?

Carmack said he would petition Bethesda/ZeniMax to release it in his last quote after the aquisition

Q4 is complete junk fest, Q43A recodes the best part of the driver and fixes all of the bugs/glitches/random game crashes, has new physics/water/many features/128 player/server slots/new snapshot netcode/better performance on dedicated servers, and much mores, can download it http://www.moddb.com/mods/q43a/downloads/q43a-win32linux-build-19-6
if you have some balls, you can go and download the latest dev patch from http://www.esreality.com/?a=post&id=2088598#pid2088598
there is a few things that need the engine to be fixed
and the bit id dont like, Q43A works like an unofficial patch, load the mod and everthing works the same, and all map for q4mp will work, along with games SP maps, with both SP and MP in the single driver for windows and linux
As of June 11th 2011 Captain Picklesworth the third is now dead.
His violent drowning could have been avoided.
You can still save Lenny and Jim. I just want some confirmation we are getting a SDK.
Lenny is the shy one on the right. He will die first and I will force Jim to watch.
[QUOTE=Dolo_420;337421]Lenny is now dead.
How long must the carnage continue.[/QUOTE]
They are not taking you seriously because its kittys. you need to start killing tapirs :stroggtapir:
WE NEED A BRINK SDK QUICKLY!
THIS IS GETTING OUT OF HAND!

…I like Quake Live.
I like it a lot, actually.
Why would you dedicate this much time to a game that’s largely dead, rather than creating your own sell-able game?
Edit: JMFC, why were projectile trails server side ever?! Don’t you just need the position/velocity of the projectile?

Q4 inst 100% dead, Q43A has a little dedicated following, most nags about it is you cant configure it with ease, so next release in a few days has all new menus, i recoded the best part of the sdk when Q4 some kind of life, most things that have been done in the past 2 years are small things and only take a hour here and there,
the only 2 main features that took more is making lipsynced voice taunts work online and 100% clientside, and adding water physics to moveables that can be synced without stuttering physics
if q4 engine is GPLd, there is only 1 mod that everyone will want to play, that has all the bugs and glitches and random game crashes fixed and many features for all kinds of game play, the renderer mights have some flaws and low FPS, but Q43A will give you better performance when playing on dedicated servers because of all of the recoding of the driver source
i dont make a full mod, because modelling is a bore, i cant skin or make textures, and most modellers and artists online all think they are better then everyone else
thats because i am, when and if the engine is GPL`d i will fix all the map restart code, Q43A is all done is the driver source and will have no lag or loss of performance after a map restart, the latest version of Q43A removes si_useready cvar that is used in the engine and setupplayer function, so Q43A has its only work around bit of junk code to fix it
everyone gave up on q4 because the engine is duff and the game has no features of a modern game, Q43A adds them all
most people think id are gods, the driver is a junk fest of dog poo, if zenimax didnt own them and carmack retired 2 years ago, id would be on the way to being extinct
Q43A is the only mod on a idtech engine that is not just code tweaks of existing features
and here is the latest version http://www.moddb.com/mods/q43a/downloads/q43a-win32linux-build-197
So you’re putting your efforts into a game that no great numbers play as it is, and when/if GPL’d (looking less likely), won’t have any substantial player count increase what so ever? Yes… smart tactics there.
