The new web interface has just been made available by Id Software. Some people might experience some issues, first restart the client completely and make sure that you disable the QL Hook manager (rename hook.js if the website goes into an endless loop trying to load). If you still see a glitch, try a /web_reload and see if that fixes any weirdness. Read More

It’s no longer possible to buy a 6 month token as they were not populair, says SyncError in the news report. Read More

A new month, a new pool. I’m a bit late with the “news” but better late than never. CTF doesn’t seem to have a really bad pool anymore lately. We have Ironworks and Japanese Castles to work with, as well as Infinity. Duel will revolve around Aerowalk, Cure, Delirium and Silence. A lot of fun Read More

Id Software has released a small game update to Quake Live., mostly to fix exploits and callvote bugs. I think the most important bit about this update is that the bots will properly switch weapons when they run out of ammo and Clan Arena won’t crash when there are more players than spawn points on the map anymore. So people playing Clan Arena against bots, rejoice!
