Just got this e-mail from Quake Live!

Dear x,

We are troubleshooting a problem that left a number of our users stuck at the initial training game. We think you were affected by this bug, and we manually flagged your account to be fully active.

We are running a stress test on our systems in a few hours (from 2 to 4PM CST, Wed. Jan 7th), we hope to see you then.

Please feel free to reply to this email if you have further problems, The QUAKE LIVE Team

QUAKE LIVE Tester!

Your name has been submitted to id Software to help us test a new multiplayer project underway here at the studio. We are working on QUAKE LIVE and would appreciate your help as we progressively test technology systems, user interface options, and gameplay changes.

What is QUAKE LIVE?

Originally dubbed "QUAKE Zero" when we announced the project at QuakeCon 2007, QUAKE LIVE will be a freely available, updated version of QUAKE III Arena that you access and play through your web browser.

As a beta tester, we are asking you to help us test the game delivery mechanism and core game technology, and to provide feedback on gameplay and game levels. The servers are always available, but you are encouraged to join us for our regular focus tests and special events (you will receive email notifications).

Please note that QUAKE LIVE is a work in progress and your experience as a beta tester does not reflect the final set of functionality that will be available. We encourage you to post comments, issues, suggestions and other feedback to the QUAKE LIVE forums. As a beta tester you are asked to keep your personal key, login information, account information, and all other information related to your participation in this program private and confidential.

What's Next?

Simply use the personalized key below to setup an id Beta Tester account and gain access to the QUAKE LIVE website where you can begin playing.

You will be asked to agree to a non-disclosure agreement and we ask that you keep your personal key, login information, account information, and all other information related to your participation in this program private and confidential.

I just played for like, not even 5 minutes - died 10 times (instagib) against 16 people and it used about 2mb.

Another thing I have to mention is that the damn 'connection interrupted' thing was flashing like all the time.

Upload + Download?
Can renember that happening in the good ole days with my 56k on overseas servers.

For interests sake what browser software does Quake Live use?
FusionFalls also uses the web browser approach with something called Unity.
See it's files are stored in it's own folder, wanna know if Quake Live has the same thing. Would be cool if it got uploaded locally when it comes out.

Plus how can you create a sa server?

Okay. I got in, but playing online is near impossible. Constantly displays 'Connection Interrupted' all the time. Anyone know of work arounds? I got a 384DSL line.
