Don't forget; this is still beta.

Yeah, beta. If this wasn't a beta it'd be the worst patch ID has released since q4 came out in terms of bugs.

Movement is botched.
Half the rockets you shoot don't even do s**t to the other guy (probably q4max)

And others

I'm with you Johnny. You can spend countless hours, re-downloading, installing, setting up, tech. supporting patch after patch after patch. I know my utter hatred for the Quake 4 patches stems back waaaaay back near the beginning of the patch madness, or whatever you want to call it, but at some point you just have to say enough is enough, and play the damn game.

They ****ed up the turbo lift thingies. They slow you down now, the turbo ones.

Does anyone know how to turn on the gladiotor rail from SM's supremacy mod?

At least im not the only one to notice this. Alot of the time ive seen rockets pass through player models without damaging them and ive seen splash damage rockets do nothing at all, aggravates the hell outta me. f*****g game needs something like steam where everyone gets the same damn update and all servers run the same thing, except maybe mods. But im tired of only being able to connect to 5 or 6 servers cuz the rest are all diff versions.
