Quake Live

Anyone tried it out by any chance? (It's still in beta at the moment.)

I tried it out yesterday finally online for the first time, and I must say, wow I suck at it. I don't know whether it's my connection (am on ADSL speeds at the moment), or whether I just suck.

Seriously got my butt handed to me. Starting off with a machine gun is just plain useless, and then trying to find a better weapon in the arena can be frustrating because everyone is running around nuking each other (although clan arena offers every weapon at the start - but I got whipped on that too )...

Found it seriously impossible to kill anyone (yes I did play in servers too where my ping was the same as everyone else's ).

I've played fast-paced games before such as UT so I'm all used to how it works and all. And I am a big fan of those types of games.

I do like the practice matches though. Bots weren't too hard to kill on the highest difficulty (haha).

The skill matching system where it tries to find servers with other skilled players as you didn't quite help me either unfortunately lol.

I found it was however a very very competitive game. Anyone else give it a try?
