Hey everybody, there is a poll going down on PlanetQuake (http://planetquake.gamespy.com/), about what is the best GPL'd Quake-engine game.
So head over to PlanetQuake (http://planetquake.gamespy.com/) and vote for Tremulous! Failure to comply will result in being banned to Natural Selection for a month.
-
Tremulous is a natural selection for me.
edit. LOLZOMG FIRSTPOST.
-
NOOO!!!!

We had 24 of 29 when I voted :(
-
Lol..we...must...win :evil:
-

-
*GASP* Warsow is winning, it only figures because I cant find any servers whatsoever on that semi-retarded game. Anyways, we will win! we have 66 votes afterall.

only one will work, since they all have the same ip. but if someone has dailup, it is really easy to cheat (if you are patient): connect to the internet, vote for trem, disconnect, reconnect with new ip, etc, until you are bored out of your mind. you can try the same thing with broadband, but it isn't always as easy to get a new ip.
-
you can just refresh the DHCP to get a new IP :)
I think its ipconfig /refresh, but I haven't used windows in some time...
the school might have different IP's for all computers.
At uni that all have there own.
I'll make a script to do all the lab PCs, but I'll have to wait till term starts. (How long is the poll open for?)
-
Warsow is still five ahead (at the time of writing)
I was torn though, trem or nex....
I do play warsow sometimes though, there's just something about those cell-shaded intestines... and all the bright colours makes you feel like you're on hard drugs.
-
yay, now we have 177 and Warsow is 175! I voted for one and now someone must have done it! YAY! GO TREMULOUS!
-
For great glory!
We're ahead so far -- but "Warsow" is only five or so votes behind.
-
Just voted.. we're winning!..
-
216 for Trem and we're in the lead!
-
now its 223!
(yeah, I don't know why, but I voted again... I was just trying to see the scores >.> <.< )
-
Those warsow fools with the retarded servers and stupid looking cell shaded graphics are cheating! We are far superior!
-
YEA WE PWNED THEM WOOT LOL WOOT LOL WE PWNED THEM OWNED THEM YA BABY WE PWNED THEM YEA! :D :eek: :D :) :( :o :x 8) :-? :eek: :D :eek:
-

what?
idiots like David allready declared they will also cheat, so WHAT makes you feel so special retard?
-
Fine, I wont cheat then.
-
First! :D
-
Come on... please... I doubt even 85% of you even read the site, I just don't know why it matters to you. Ah well, pictures speak louder than words.

What's the point of winning the poll anyway? It's not like they're going to donate $$$ to the most popular (by votes) project.
-
but it will make people who see the poll think about trying trem.
-
Why are there Warsow players here? You are on the wrong forum.

...Meaning one hell of a Noob takeover!

On your keyboard there is this large key at the bottom in the middle.
Its called the 'space bar'
You should learn how to use it before posting again.

Also there is a big button called "Caps Lock" Try pressing it and see what it does :wink:

Or better still, just pack your computer back into the box it cam in, and take it back to the store.
Tell them there was an ID-10-T error or a Layer 8 error. They'll know what to do.

Tremulous Ftw!

Just voted!
Trem is first with 326 votes!!!
17 ahead of waarsow

331 trem
311 warsow
Don't worry about more noobs trying out trem. After the initial frustration they will all be competent players and a larger number of players can only give goodness (Maps, mods, reviews, rating, support, community websites etc)
This is serious stuff!

sweet we totally pwned them :D
Good job to everyone who voted for it!
-
This poll means nothing at all...both sides cheated.
I would like the webmasters to clean the false votes so that we can really see who won the poll (if we compare players base, Tremulous should be the better one by far).
-
This poll means nothing at all...both sides cheated
I agree :(
-
We won anyways, since we won at cheating too.
-
Stop haxoring the poll!
You can't cheat at voting!
If we have more votes from people voting more than once it simply means they are more dedicated and hence love the game more!
Don't stop voting! We shall crush them into the ground and then rub it in their faces that they didn't vote harder!

So I saw that Warsow was doing good in the polls like Trem. So I was like, wow that must also be a popular game, let me go check it out.
I installed it. Looked good so far. Then I did my config. OK, I was ready to play. When I brought up the server list NOT ONE PERSON WAS PLAYING. Did I miss something?
-
No, from my experience the average amount of active Warsow players visible in the ingame server browser has never been above 20.
-
me wonders why theres no http://www.westernquake3.net in the pools, they seem to be quite active
-
lawl if tremulous had a 'national' song, i'd be singin' it loud'r than a volum' ten Boombox'r thing! Rawhide! :D

There are several factors involved. First, the ingame browser is half-broken in 0.12 version, and it only shows a small bunch of servers (there are 300 warsow servers). Anyway, Warsow is quite inactive lately, there was usually between 100 and 200 players a few weeks after the release, but when CPL anounced the return of Q3 this dropped a lot, and since then the numbers have been decreasing. There is still a lot of activity in the forums so I guess many people is just waiting for the next release (which is scheduled for today at night). I'd tell you to give it a try tomorrow, you'll find games for sure.
see Warsow servers listed (http://www.q3f.org/servers/master/ag/WSW/pp/100/)
Anyway, I'm not sure up to what point a Tremulous player will enjoy Warsow (it probably depends on what did you play before Trem), they are games with very different phylosophies.
BTW, I can't say I enjoyed this poll fight since I'm a Warsow coder who has been playing a lot of Trem recently. I don't like seeing players from one game calling names to the players of the other game. Doesn't matter much tho, since I never took the poll seriously :)

No
"This is the full install Windows executable version of WQ3"
sure sounds like a standalone

2.1 Getting started
First of all you will have to download the WesternQuake3 Base files, which you can find on the official webpages. The latest version is Beta 2.1. To play online, you will need all files for your operating system located22 in the "WesternQuake3 Mod" section of the webpages. You will also need the latest Quake3 Arena version (currently 1.32) to be able to start WQ3.

I did try to install Warsow a while back.
All I got for a title screen was a bunch of random grey rectangles.
