Yeah, that's because it usually sits at 200-300 players so it's knocked off the stats page (and that was when it did make the page, now it must be below 200), while q3 recently had jumped a few spots and now sits at 3000+ (prolly people coming back to it/playing cpma vq3, been a pretty big cpma server boost as of late) lawl

funny it seems like the 1.3 patch didn't excite the community at all

its to bad, because q4 1.3 is great for CTF games. The new speed makes flag runs alot more fun

Personally, I havent played Q3 since the new Q4 patch...I'm hopeing that the player base slowly increases over time :paranoid:

You should not see gamespy stats, because it is broken. Quake 4 is NOT dead. It improves well. It has + 30% more players and server before PR 1.3 released.

Yeah, PR 1.3 has been good for server traffic, definately. Now, if I can get my DSL upgraded..

You know in Sweden, normal humans can afford 100Mbit connections, and here in Canada I'm paying $80 to get 512 upstream? Sad, really.... No wonder the Swedes can rail.

I have 1MB/128kbs ADSL connection. Usually I have 40 - 60 ping on foreign servers.

I dunno, before the 1.3 patch gamespy stats showed q4 on the page, with 300-400 players. Now since the 1.3 patch I haven't seen the game on the list at all, not even on the weekends or middle day when it should be busy. :shrug:

Gamespys stats page doesnt take account of the 1.3 servers as they need to update it to work with the new protocol - thats why its dropped off the bottom. I noticed the same when 1.2 came out until they updated it.

I dunno whether they can perhaps only show one protocol at once - if so, the stats are always gunna be lower than they should be as there are still people playing in 1.0

I've seen alot more people on the servers over the last couple of weeks. I know it's not perfect (and it's not Q3 :icon25: ) but i'm really enjoying the new 1.3 patch.

I use SKQ4 and HLSW to browse Quake 4 servers. I'm pleased with them. They shows Quake 4 servers correctly.
