1.3 made game go from sluggish and somewhat boring to very fast and enjoyable. Hope 1.4 does more of the same. :icon25:

Every game has growing pains. At least id Software is still working on it for fans of the series. At this point, they could simply stop doing anything for the game like most developers do.. :icon31:

True dat... it's suprising they actually are supporting it the way they are given the mp game was largely a flop (in player numbers)

I've been running servers for quite awhile. For arena style games like Quake, UT, JA, JK2, etc., MP bots are a must to attract players, otherwise most servers will sit there empty. Most players won't sit around in a map waiting for others to join. Bots provide practice and make it seem like a server is busy via game browsers, which motivates players to join it. You'll notice in Quake 4 a bunch of empty servers and a few that are super busy. It's due to that pattern.
