Q3A in Australia is dead. One server DM, few local OSP and RA and usually max 20 players playing in whole Australia. Why? Bots are rampant and no one can fix it! ID and PB guys visibly can't protect against cheats on line and remaining servers are full of bots. I'm wondering why ID can't sue bot makers? They are hurting them like hell! Just take a look at these morons. http://www.users.bigpond.com/clanslug/clanbot.htm Check latest updates and 'features' of that bay. http://www.users.bigpond.com/clanslug/Slugbot1.32v19FQVM.zip The programmer must be a brilliant programmer, in the same time a total idiot. Why waste your time on bot, if you could be great programmer programming something great and make some serious $'s? Or even work fo ID! By action of that guy, ID has lost so many busy servers! I'm not going to buy Q4 if ID s/ware can't protect their work on line. No way! ID has proven to be useless in that dept so I'll rather d/load much later the game and would even not think to play it on line. Too sick of on line games like Half Life, CS, Quake... have enough. Too aggravating. How many players would love to play on line, to have a challenge and to get an edge with skill, but how long can last any player against bot like these ones or another moron, Noskill. Q4 is definitely not for me. I have enough. ID can't protect it. At least they will not make money on me. I would not pay for s/ware which is broken in few days and does not perform as is designed to. Just d/load that bot and see what he can do when you play on line against him. Auto dogging against rockets, auto aiming which is almost impossible to detect, unless you are VERY experienced player. Icons over heads so you always see the enemy, even through walls. D/load it here and play with it a little. http://www.users.bigpond.com/clanslug/Slugbot1.32v19FQVM.zip I must be stupid. Most of ya are using it anyway and making that game DEAD. ;)
