any body like to quake

28.8kbps is not really enough to play Q3 as the game says a minimum of a 33.6kbps.

OK, today I am starting a server a little early. IP is 59.144.16.167:27960
I won't be online for long, say one hour, so make haste. The latency is gonna be pretty high with we being from all over the country. Also, I've never hosted a Q3 game before (with humans in it), so do bear with me.

Seems like no one's around when I'm around. Msg/pm/post if a few f you guys are around then.

@q3abhi,
about 28.8kbps modems, it seems that you can play quite happily on one.

Thanks for this.

But i wanna know does version matter ??

Bcoz i have 1.27 version installed.

Whenever i search for servers it doesnt show up any.

Moreover when i entered the IP address specified by Sirius, it goes back to the main Menu.

 

[siriusb]

am not sure if version matters. I think it does not.

If it doesn't show any server, then it's probably set to "LAN" instead of Internet or maybe it's taking a bit longer to retrieve the list from the id master servers.

A lot of ppl asked but no one else wanted to come online? How about today at 11:00 PM? Anyone?

Edit:
For anyone that's interested, Server at 10:00 PM at 59.144.19.44, port27960

How much data transfer does an hour or so of online gaming consume. I really need to know this as i (like many people) have the dataone 256kbps connection which has a monthly limit of 400MB. I have a feeling that it consumes huge amount of download. I once played the NFSMW demo for 10-15 minutes and it consumed 45MB of Data.
This is an important issue. So someone, please help!

Quake requires 4-5 Kb data to be send n receive per second.

It will take around 18-20 MB an hour.
