Quake Live becomes stand alone game

Post by Eraser »

You know er.... like Quake 3 Arena. It's because browsers are quickly dropping support for plug-ins like the QL plug-in.

I bet most of you don't care though.

Possible better mod support? :up:
No Mac or Linux support. :down:

There's probably a fantastic way of implementing this, but I'm not too confident that that's what id Software will do. I think it'll just be a quick hack to make QL work exactly like QL only without the browser plugin.

Was hoping to know this. Last I played you had to pay extra for maps / servers / gamemodes which kinda sucked. I wouldn't of minded if I could've played on dm6 :)

I wonder why they wouldn't just build match making into the old Q3A binary. Lame.

What you're getting now is basically a wrapper around the existing website. It's probably easier to do it this way.
