Incredible... After more than a month of downtime, I thought it would never come back online.

For those who care...

The Enemy Territory master server is up also.

RTCW is still down though.

Speaking of master servers list in game(ioquake3) I've never had a problem finding a server in my ioq3's in-game3 browser, but now it suddenly doesn't read anything ... is there something up with that or...? I haven't played online in a while so ... I dunno. =/

The Dreamcast master server is down to, I wonder if contacting idsoftware would resolve the issue.

^lol...

Just use QTracker, and search for servers in your country, or a country near you, most smart Q3 hosters would be broadcasting to this knowing what Quake 3 is like with it's master server.

Quake live is garbage and there are still tons of people playing quake3. Just visit cromctf.com and you will see.

What's there to lie about? You don't have any good player base and only a small handful of old regulars. Your server uses a fake ping mod and tries to fool all players into thinking they're receiving the lowest ping there. Even the bots in spectator have pings. :olo:

These are Valid!

//Main Settings - Masterserver
set sv_master2 "master.quake3.fr:27950"
set sv_master3 "master.qtracker.com:27900"
set sv_master4 "master0.gamespy.com"
set sv_master5 "master1.gamespy.com"
set sv_master6 "clanservers.net"
set sv_master7 "master3.idsoftware.com"
set sv_master8 "master.quake3arena.com"
set sv_master9 "dyron.excessiveplus.net:27950"
set sv_master10 "master.maverickservers.com:27950"
set sv_master11 "master.urbanterror.net"
set sv_master12 "master.ioquake3.org:27950"
set sv_master13 "master.kali.net"
set sv_master14 "master.gnw.de"
set sv_master15 "master.cromctf.com"

PLUS- The Master One everyone is talking about is working fine. HOWEVER- it doesn't respond to pings. This is the reason for the confusion. Also- there are good Quake 3 Browsers out there with over 2,000 Servers! The main one in Quake 3 Arena works fine-*btw* **Download 'ServerBrowse". That one has 1,400 servers alone. I hope I cleared the air.

the Master Server is always on, however when you click on Multiplayer:

you will see; SERVER: internet
GAME TYPE: ALL <--------- here you must use ALL as your option in order to see a list of servers
SORT BY: PING TIME



if you do not use the ALL selection your screen will always show blanks. thinking that the Master Server is down.
after you have chosen All and you will see a list of servers then you can change the game type of your choice.
have fun. :up: :up: :olo: :eek: :eek: :eek:

Quake3 master server is down again, and I believe it's gone for good this time, been playing Quake Live to feed my Quake addiction, it's OK, but very repetitive.

I'm getting that too. Mind sending that to id Software? I'll probably email them about this, cybertec69. Don't you worry. EDIT: Just emailed id Software about the :q3: master server, am waiting for a response.

I doubt it very much that you will get a response from id Software. Keep us posted if you do.

I'm not feeling hopeful about it this time either. But best of luck. I would love to have it come back.
There are still quite a few Quake3 servers running, including my own two.
Just to name a couple of sites currently listing / monitoring active servers;
http://www.gametracker.com / http://www.gametracker.com/search/q3/
http://www.quakeservers.net / http://www.quakeservers.net/quake3/servers

Each of these list around 400 servers.
Of course many servers are listed on both sites.

I have 3 servers running and they're listed on qtracker as well:

AKUTA 50.97.113.66:27960 CPMA Nemesis Pro Mode 1.16n

Lithium FFA CPMA Pro Mode 50.97.113.68:27960
1.16n

Sanctuary (Crazy weapons turrets items with physics decoys and more) 50.97.113.107:27960

can get mappac for the servers as well at http://www.akuta.proboards.com

the map-pac contains all maps into a single pk3 file
