There is #spontanq4ctf on quakenet.

I wouldn't play there. The admins ban you if you leave a game when you have to put a fire out in your house.

From my logs

09,09 01,08 1401:012201.0120 09,09   <dam1ro> the fire was out in 5 minuts, u said , and u took 3 ours to talk about it with ur dad
0409,09 01,08 1401:012201.0131 09,09   <dam1ro> whats wrong with u diabz ?
0109,09 01,08 1401:012201.0145 09,09   <diabz> yeah actually, it was about 3 hours we talked :o
0109,09 01,08 1401:012301.0138 09,09   <diabz> wasnt just about the fire tho
0109,09 01,08 1401:012401.0104 09,09   <diabz> but ye
0109,09 01,08 1401:012401.0110 09,09   <diabz> guess i should get my priorities right
0109,09 01,08 1401:012401.0128 09,09   <diabz> 1. spontan 2. family 3. health 4. life
09,09 01,08 1401:012501.0114 09,09   <dam1ro> yup

Sounds legit.

:/

Another bushfire eh? Hehe with your climate it's like being on fire anyway ;)

dead for good!

I just installed the game.

78 servers, and not a single player online...

Am I doing something wrong?

all mods are shit and running on the shit bugfest of the SDK that killed the game, and you have`nt tried http://www.moddb.com/mods/q43a which is banned and filter on q4master and 60% + all SDK recode and new features n shit, cos id are shit without carmack and become codemasters and forgotten with shit liike operation flashpoint

quake4 wasn't written by id it was written by Raven Software (under some supervision of id).
Later it got heavily altered by id though (when they realized it was shit).

yes, you installed the game

and have`nt got the unofficial patch for SP and MP for windows and linux that will start listenservers and dedicated server with a all in 1 pack and build

lucky you, i was around when people played that abomination of a game.

With 1.4.2 and Q4Max 0.82 I personally think its better than QL

shame no1 else gives a fuck

Your thoughts aren't fooling you since, well, it is better.

1.3 was much better imo

i personally think you're an idiot.

You hurt my delicate, flowery feelings :(

:(/

>implying that QL isn't MUCH worse than Q4 ever was

Everyone switched because Shadowmaster155 was dominating the scene and there was no incentive to play anymore

Yes.

it is dead and wasnt mentioned anywhere for 2 years, now every1 is talking about it again

When it comes to this abomination of a community, the general consensus tends to have shitty tastes in games and fears change. So, unfortunately, yes.

Q4 was a Ferrari with engine, transmission, brake and electrical problems.

The game was literally broken. Gameplay wise it was fine.

gameplay is complete shit, boring and hollow, with real crap effects, and only the obvious things work

Yeah, well, that's what Q43A is for then, right? For solid gameplay?

...

#19 is :

Dear god, man. Why do you keep doing this to yourself? Seek professional help, please.

do what, i couldnt give a fucking shit about any of you, or id, or the whole nerdy world of making mods and teams and beta testers

q4 is dead, no1 plays it, i can put out a patch whenever i want, if you download it and play n try it, then you know its the best q4 mod and better then QL, with a renderer that does`n need no changes for atleast 8 more years

"or the whole nerdy world of making mods and teams and beta testers"

What do you call what you've done if not making a modification? The only difference between yourself and id is that no one would test yours.

who needs testing, the unmodded quake 4 is full of random crashes, game glitches so on and so on, which is why it is dead, as far as your tournies go, the public server frag fests never happened because the game is pure shit ingeneral and doesnt have full customizable MP player models, voice taunts, water or anything else good

Q43A fixes all the random crashes, all teh glitches and adds all the missing features

ok buddy

find out, check your windows crash logs, they are all in the sdk, if you have extracted files in the q4base or mod folder and run a pure server, then the client engine will crash when a client connects, but all the random crashes when playing the game are fixed

there no fail safes in alot of functions, if a function is called and a entity is given to it then the game will crash, because iddict class has no fail safes either, and a 1000 other small things that make the random crashes

militia->Q43A has been fixing them for 6 years

try it and you will find out

I don't play Q4.

You still havn't told me how your work is any different from all the other modifications of Q4.

all other mods are shit, have none of teh features that are in Q43A, because no1 but me can code and have the brain that can debug on the fly multiple classes without compiling

no other mod fixes all the glitches and crashes
no other mod has all new "netcode" running only the code needed server or client side for each and every entity spawned, and wont just be overwritten by a snapshot sent from server, increasing performance a little and using lower cpu
no other mod cant do anything in Q43A, becuase the SDK doesnt have a single line of code todo with any of the new feature that are in Q43A
no other mod can have more then 16 players on a server, Q43A can have 128

no other mod is worth anything

q3 mods came with it all, q4 suck asses think some bumpmapping on textures changes the universe and the engine is all cosmic, when its all exactly the same with a new renderer

POW!!! Right in his face! That'll teach him!

haven't played it in awhile.. this thread made me install the game again and see who's still playing in america

oh shi, that really was you, I almost hopped in but assumed it was someone alias'ed

yep, had a couple sessions last night. mad rusty but the game's as fun as i remember. btw, no one ever aliases as me ;)

hate this game, wasted too much time into it ...
the game itself wasn't bad, but the game was bugged as hell,
my system crashed arbritrarily ... and I really tried hard to play that game, because I wanted to make a comeback at quake at that time ... but really at some point after I reinstalled windows several times in different versions and even exchanged the hardware just to get the game running smoothly and the errors still persisted, I was just fed up with this shit ... since then I didn't play quake anymore, I only tested QL a bit (but I don't think I accumulated more than 90 minutes of playtime in QL) ... having played quake a lot in the past, the quakeexperience is not so new to me, and playing QL is not giving me the same joy that Quake gave me when I played it the first time, it's just not fresh anymore, besides I was at a very high level, don't want to start out as a newb now ;-) ... but being a newb is not the mainreason, just takes too much energy and time to get to a good level again, and anyway I have been there already, don't really need to experience it another time ... now there are other things I want to reach ... still I learned some 3D Mapping in Q4, that was the only good thing about it, because later on I profited from it when I made a model of a spacestation in Blender ... end of liferant ;-)

try Q43A, it wont crash, it has no existing bugs that was retail packed, it makes q4 a whole new game, if it does crash and has some sdk lines in the crashlog, i fix it in a few mins

sry, it's 2 l8 m8. If I will ever play competitively again (that is for me all that matters in online gaming, e.g. "mess with the best or die like the rest"), it can only be QL or some other *popular* quake-like game. But right now I have no time to play anything competitively, and tbh. chances are rather slim I ever will play competetively an online game again, even when I might have enough time for it. There are certain timegaps in life where things happen ... you also don't play with LEGO anymore, even though you could be creative there, too, and build amazing things, etc. ...

Q43A is about competitive play, its has duel if you want duel, its more about kicking ass on alcoholic pub servers

all the clean code etc etc etc etc etc etc, and playing simple duel, with all projectile.cpp recoding recoding, makes gameplay all good and glitch free.

the SDK code is able to have upto 128 players, you all can find out yourself if the engine stops at 16 still, the SDK will stop at 128 players

and you can have your server running on your own custom damage set with si_tournamentmode enabled, with new ways of starting games with warmup, timed warmup, timed readyup, normal ready up,

I think all of the Quake games are feeling the effects of a fairly segmented community at the moment. With the exception of QL, I feel that each of the Quake games have a unique style and feel to them that keep segmenting out more and more players. Quake 4 was/is no different. While there are still several dozen players and a couple clans here in the US (I'm ignorant to the scene in EU) that populate a couple servers on any given night, YES, the Quake 4 competitive community is dormant. Now, why did I use the term dormant rather than dead; simply put, because it ISN'T dead. The players are still around (though doing other things), the drive is still there to compete but the environment is not conducive to growth. Now without going into a tirade what what Quake 4 was, I simply want to invite everyone to see the potential of what Quake 4 can be when we release GTR in the coming weeks.

After several setbacks in the team and vacations from working on the mod, sk4ut and zhakal have built GTR into a really impressive work. And though we've kept pushing back the release date in the past, the game is at such a point where all the team members feel that it is ready for the world. Why release something half-assed *cough* Raven*? I invite all of you to give it a try when it's released; I think everyone will be fairly surprised. And if anything, don't install it, and just post on the ESR Q4 forums about how much better it is than Q43A/Militia, then sit back and read the millions of raged posts p0rt will make.

Just for good measure

You're asking a bunch of failtrolls not to troll p0rt. Tall order there...

I really hope GTR will be at least as good as 1.3 beta of it was.
But hey, GTR comes out 2020, we all know that :P

except it aint better, its just some gametypes and tweaks to gameplay, it wont have

full custom MP player models,
materialType projectile impact effects
materialType footstep sounds
full usable water [func_liquid in map editor] with full colorization of projectiles and effects with smooth physics on dedicatted servers
working "gravity" key in map editor with smooth physics on dedicatted servers
MP vehicles
able to have 128 players
manual or auto weapon zoom
view frag/team winner at the end of MP games and able to emote
full working lipsync voicetaunts
clean code where most things are done only the once

SP game pause uses 2 parts g_stoptime, and removes the cvar

and it goes on, its all my own code and none of it exists in the SDK, not 1 line of any of it

Well, hey, GTR is actually going to be released, which makes it better by default.

Q43A has been released for 2 years, hence download it from moddb

main mod page : http://www.moddb.com/mods/q43a
if you scroll to the bottom of main page, download the latest build #19 http://www.moddb.com/mods/q43a/downloads/q43a...x-build-19

when Q43A has the militia name, militia release started 6 years ago

if you haven't been following, GTR is quickly sneaking up on Duke Nukem Forever status as far as "it's actually going to come out" goes. If you look through the forums, you'll see a few "GTR coming soon" as far back as WSVG times ('07)

that becuase the coder left the mod

I think all of the Quake games are feeling the effects of a fairly segmented community at the moment. With the exception of QL

QL is sitting at around the same numbers Q3 had before QL came out, so it's in the same boat.

I don't give their site free hits, so you'll have to construct a real reply.

Real Reply?

What like being able to come back with quotes for when you said someone specifically said something.http://www.esreality.com/?a=post&id=2062771#pid2062771

Come on Vedic, live by your own words.

Can you keep your rage to a single thread?

No rage, I'm simply going to keep posting until you answer the question because I feel if you say someone "specifically" said something and cannot provide a source when asked (on a non personal issue), then it makes any kind of dialogue with you on another thread a waste because if you're prepared to duck and dodge on something so simple as a quote and source (after saying someone specifically said something), then it means nothing else you have to say is worth discussing.

I feel people need to understand this about you before they waste time on arguing with you. All you gotta do is provide the information which you claim was specifically said.

http://www.esreality.com/?a=post&id=2062771#pid2062771

Nothing you say is worth discussing - hence shutting down all your misinformation.

I'm simply asking you for a quote for something you said someone said.
http://www.esreality.com/?a=post&id=2062771#pid2062771

I know you''re backed in a corner and are keen to attack me at the most fundamental evel to discredit what I'm asking, but its very simple.

I'm not arguing with you, I'm simply asking for the source of something you said someone said?

So the only information out there is what you're saying.
So if there is any misinformation, its from you.

You stopped being able to have a discussion on this site a long time ago. Expecting as such would require quite a bit of bridge-building on your part. This was also pointed out to you... in the other thread. Your rage has spread to about 3 threads now.

http://www.esreality.com/?a=post&id=2062771#pid2062771

you're the one who can't provide a simple quote to something you said. The discussion is based around what you said and the lack of information that you've provided as a source.

No rage vedic, I'm simply keen to get as many people to see how you lie about things to get people to believe what you want.

There was no discussion. There was no debate. You were corrected.

This is what you said...

"He specifically said that Daikatana was his dream of what Quake should have been."

What John really said...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lQMtVbz_JuE&t=3m37s
(BUT NOT DO THE CRAZY REVOLUTIONARY IDEA THAT QUAKE WOULD HAVE BEEN )

Now you're playing the blind denial card. Which is why I think its important to air this :)

This is called "correction".

You still not answered a very simple question, instead reverting to this blind denial.

All I asked was a quote to what you said someone said and all you've provided is nothing.

You don't deserve a discussion - you deserve correction. You lost that ability a long time ago.

Which is why I am asking you to provide the quote to something you said someone said.

As what you said directly conflicted with what they said.

This isn't about me, its about what you said vs someone else.
Stop trying to flip things around.

Its not about me.

The thread in question is that way --->

http://www.esreality.com/files/misc/2011/8203...d-liar.swf

My only goal is to simply point out your delusions to help others avoid even bothering to have a discussion to you in the gaming world because this sets a pretty big precedant :)

That way --->

translation: I won't read the evidence you have provided, therefore I am right and you are wrong.

I doubt if an active community still exists but I hop in at work with some people during breaks and it's still fun.

Things are going well in the GTR camp. Just asking; are there any specific additions/changes/features you guys would like to see? We've tried to keep the wiki pretty accurate on what will be included, but just thought I'd ask.

I'm also going to try and stream some duels with some of the beta testers in the near future. Head over to the #GT-Revolution channel to stay up to date on the latest news.

i remember speaking to zhakal years ago about when this was being released , how far along is it because if i was you i wouldn't hold out on it ;D else by the time your do release it the game will be truly dead and all your hard work / time would have been wasted.

For the love of the game and the community we had when quake4 was on hes last days. I never saw this post so i didnt had the chance to tell you as a ex moderator what happend and who is diabz.
First off all if u dont know diabz. This guy is a rage quitter second class from the UK. If he cant win he will come up with some excuses just to leave the "pickup" with an excuse so he dont get banned for a day for not playing the game and lie against the moderators.

This time he told us there was a fire outside and he needed to check it out. This was a lie because in game i remember he was losing to us and he didnt feel like hes team mates where helping him out. So he came up with an excuse as you people read. Thats why i asked "whats wrong with u diabz" Because i dont believe this guy anymore after 2 years of trollin the community and making people think different about others. He actually manipulated allot of people back in those days.

So this was my side of the story. To bad quake4 died. i stayed untill the last 10 people where in the channel. Its a shame we all left it. RIP quake4 2011

dat necro :o

Are you talking about the real diabz?

by dam1ro

Yes im talking about the real diabz who haves a dad thats the leader of dobo? i dont remember hes name or w/e. But thats him yes.

sorry about my english i rather write dutch but yea w/e :P
are people still alive and playing the game despite the lie he wrote on this topic ?

Take a look at latest Demonic Master gaming
