I've got Doom3 here (came with gfx card). I, as have many, hoped for that it would be big online etc. Doom3 obviously never took off online. But now RoE has 8 players online and CTF. So I was thinking of getting it. But if no-one is playin git online, I won't go there. I *only* play multiplayer. So I guess what I am asking is how many are playing this RoE online? More/less than Q3? Thanks,

Will that have some form of CTF added? It's supposed put everyone on the same protocol, maybe regular Doom 3 will remain with the gametypes it currently has. -- People of the United States!

I'd say no CTF, mainly since CTF is Threewave, and they didn't make any money off of vanilla Doom3 (directly anyway). I believe 1.3 is just going to make things a lot smoother (hopefully some of the CTF bugs will be sorted; I get some weird lag issues when playing online here and there) I know linux support is coming with 1.3, and I'm happy about this, because I know a guy who is more than willing to put up a *nix dedicated server :D And as far as everybody being on the same "protocol," they are, as long as they are running the same 'mod' (RoE is technically a mod, with official id patches backing it up and keychecks inside of the DLL). -- -SnoopJeDi

That's what I was talking about. I guess that specific error doesn't occur with Doom 3, it was a very confusing error for some people, "server uses protocol 45" etc... the in-game browser didn't filter out incompatible game servers, Doom 3 does. -- People of the United States!
