Isn't quake live the same?

There are some superficial changes, but for the most part it is the same game only converted to be an MMO. As I have said, if I had a better Internet I would probably be making a name from myself there. But for now I will stick with ioquake3 and picking on the bots.
Why have you written ioquake3, what's difference between normal quake3?
BTW where can i get Quake2 and Quake3 for free?

ioquake3 is just an updated version of the engine, so there is no change in the gameplay if you are using the original game data. I just said ioquake3 because that is what I happen to use as my engine base.
And while the source code for both Quake2 and Quake3 is freely available, the game media is not and still must be purchased. Due to the source code release however they are several Quake3 like free games about, the one that is the closest to traditional Quake3 being OpenArena. And of course there is also QuakeLive, which is free to play (though there is a premium subscription available that removes the advertising). As far as I am aware there are no free games like Quake2 though, which is a shame since I would like more single-player free software FPS games.
i would like to play too, i really want to play any single player games :(
BTW my internet speed is just 800kilobytes/sec and Quake Live plays brilliant, what's your internet speed (in bytes)?

Our man at id, Timothee Besset (who also happens to be the guy behind the Linux ports), programmed for the most part the QuakeLive networking interface so I am sure it is quite good. Problem is I have only two options for the internet: a satellite internet link and an overloaded dial-up modem. The modem is no good, I can barely load up this forum on it, and the satellite link is high latency so that makes it hard to run games on it. But the most damning thing about using the Satellite is if we go over a certain Bandwidth limit our ISP sticks us with extra charges. That is why I have given up for now on extravagant things such as YouTube, Flash, Internet games, or living. :roll:
