Loved their last part,Quake 3 so this should be super awesome based on the screenie,also having your skills evaluated & matched with other players make it even challenging I believe.

The latest part was Quake 4. :tongue: The best of QL is that you can play it on any computer that has a Web browser.

The worse part of QL is queues that u need to manage to actualy play it. Sometimes they can reach few minutes up to hours
I didn't know it could take that long. When I tried it yesterday it took me five minutes to advance 4000 places in the queue :tongue:
I believe this is will be a big issue for the connected users,I mean if every one spent like 10 minutes trying to book a slot to enter the game,then this would be exhausting,anyway,I feel like they have that in mind & already figuring out a way to get the queue less.
Well, it's beta :wink: - and ten minutes isn't that much, you can do other things in the meantime, and the site will notify you when the game's ready to play. :tongue:
Played it. Its nice but my boss blocked the ports so I am only able to play at home....and I prefer CS:S there...

Perhaps you can use Ultrasurf to unblock it? :tongue:
i was shocked by the queuing system too, but apparently this has only been implemented to handle server load during the public beta so they can get an idea of the loads they need to be ready for in the final game. apparently the queue system was not there in the closed beta...
Ultrasurf?
Yes :biggrin: It's a small EXE that acts as a local proxy, listening on port 9666, which redirects requests to Ultrareach's server park - a group of high-speed, anonymous encrypted proxies.
You can tell your browser to use 127.0.0.1:9666 as a proxy server, and this way bypass your workplace's firewall - for the latter it'll look as if you were visiting an SSL-encrypted page.
Here (http://www.ultrareach.com/)'s the download link - I hope you find it useful. :smile:
