True enough. I think ^^^ that would be the perfect Q3 monitor, but it's a little pricey. Apparently they first retailed at £1800, not too long ago. So maybe it's a steal...

Widescreen vs. CRT

Recently bought a Lacie Electron Blue 22" because I could. What do you think people? I know it's oldschool in the world of widescreen TFT's but could the Lacie be the best Q3 screen ever? Do you think there is an advantage in newer games like ET to have a widescreen res? I'm talking aim I suppo...

Re: Players with best movement?

Nayok... I think Bl0key was pretty much universally aknowledged to be the best UK player in the golden era. He is a good guy as well, like you said. Lots of european clans were interested in him after UNR started to kiss ass in the eurocups. There were other great UK players, especially team players...

Re: Players with best movement?

Like him or hate him, Fatal1ty was light years ahead in the beginning. That move youre talking about foralarx, wasn't that the year he played against Z4 in the final on Tourney2? The year he beat Bl0key on T2 as well... a long time ago maybe 2000? He was the player who got me into Q3 back then. Way ...

Re: Where are all of the players at?

Irc channels like TDMpickup, Q3pickup etc... I forget the exact names but ask around quakenet you'll find them. Usually get a game there every hour or so if I remember. I dunno though maybe now its a ghost town, or full of ex-UT2004 players ;)

Re: I lowered my fov and sens

Different mice have different sens' as well. My MX300 was perfect on sens 2.5 accel 1.5 with no windows accel and 2 notches down in mouse properties. All mice I have bought since then take lots to adjusting to find that same feel. I have used fov 120 since I can remember, but I can see how as you im...

Re: Players with best movement?

I forgot about av3k! I think most pro's have great movement, with maybe a few exceptions, QUAD.Wrath for example, and Mist + Vorv from iron fist. They always look pissed. Maybe they are pissed... The reason I didn't include Cooller and CZM is, although they do the job, they are clinical. There is no...

Re: Is there a small square map out there, who's made for Rocket

It's not made for rocket launchers, but confinedrail.pk3 is a small, tight map that would be good to play with rl. It's too small for rail anyway.

Players with best movement?

Who do you think has the best movement out of popular/professional Quake III players? And do you prefer to watch low sens or high sens players?

Ten players I think have supernatural movement : St. Germain, Farside, Lexer, Unkind, Doomer, Matrox, Toxic, Ooze, Z4muZ and Fatal1ty.

Re: David Beckhams wife playing Q3

How do I watch CPMA VQ3 demos? What mod do I need to download and install? I use DSC light 1.30 to watch demos, but only have OSP install on this machine. I generally hate playing CPMA quake 3, so I never install it.

Cheers.

Re: Quake3 and Widescreen Resolutions?

I used to play in 1440x900 on a 19" widescreen.

/r_customheight 900
/r_customwidth 1440
/r_mode -1
/vid_restart

But how does /r_customaspect work? I never knew about that...

I liked the way it looked with the above settings with fov at 120. Got very used to it and improved my game.

Re: Give credit where credit is due...

Sorry people. I wrote that on a laptop without noticing caps lock was on, and cut + pasted it. Won't happen again. My point came from reading, I think it was Metacritic' index of the top 25 PC games of all time. And every other top 10, top 20 etc. PC games of all time. Half life is always light year...

Re: David Beckhams wife playing Q3

Good game DruM. I found some more, these really ARE the last games I played before I sold my PC. Started playing Q3 LAN with friends around 2002, but they sucked. Got broadband 2003 and played online for eight months, then I gave up computer games for a few years, until I wrecked my arm mid 2005. Th...

Re: David Beckhams wife playing Q3

Hey DruM Downloading your demo now. I didn't think there were any servers left running, might have to try it again myself. Here is a demo of me playing a duel a few years ago, probably one of the last Q3 games I played. Let me know what you think. I'll watch yours when it completes the dl (at 303 by...
