It’s been nearly 1,5 years since the Quake Live project was announced during the 2007 Quakecon event, and a lot has happened since that day.
The name Quake Zero changed to Quake Live due to a domain squatter, a closed beta was launched and a Quake Live tournament was held at Quakecon in 2008.
Today however it seems like Quake Live has reached a new milestone in it’s development.
Some of you may have read in the most recent news update that Quake Live is now using Twitter.
Wait… what? You can’t say that! You’re breaking the beta Non Disclosure Agreement!
Well, not exactly. Twitter is a public feed. Just do a little search in Google for “Quake Live Twitter” and you’ll see that these updates are not private and they are there for everyone to follow.
Ok then. But what exactly is this “Twitter” You’re talking about?
Twitter has been the internet hype of 2008. The Twitter system is similar to “Facebook updates”, and to be honest, that’s really the only thing twitter does: keep people updated about random activities in a short sentence of maximum 180 characters.
This is a review of the fourth group in the 2009 Quake Live TDM Nation Cup.
Today’s teams up for review are United Kingdom A, Estonia, Finland and Germany.
Earlier I already did a review of both group 1 with the Netherlands, Italy, Poland A and the Czech Republic, group 2 with Portugal, Spain, Lithuania and France and group 3 with Sweden, Belgium, Poland B and Hungary.
Today’s overview will be a rather one sided overview, focusing mainly on the UK. For this I apologize in advance ;). The other Nation captains were unfortunately unavailable for any questions.

This is a review of the third group in the 2009 Quake Live TDM Nation Cup.

This is a review of the second group in the 2009 Quake Live TDM Nation Cup.
Today’s teams up for review are Spain, Portugal, France and Lithuania. It’ll be a bit shorter than the previous overview, but It’ll have to do. 🙂
Earlier I already did a review of group 1 with the Netherlands, Italy, Poland B and the Czech Republic.
Earlier I announced I would write 4 more posts about the Quake Live Nations Cup. Here’s the first one in those series in which I will discuss all the group 1 teams, combined with interviews of nearly all the captains. Later on I will do 3 more posts about other groups in the Quake Live Nations Cup.
We have entered week 2 of the Nationscup and some matches have already been played. You could say this preview comes a bit slow, but better late than never! The actual end of the group fase should only be in March anyway. 🙂
Let’s first take a look at which players each country in group 1 has in their lineups.
The first ever European Quake Live Nations cup officially started January 19th 2009, which is about 2 weeks ago.
A total of 16 teams will be competing in 4 groups for a total of 8 tickets to the playoffs in March.
The winning team takes home the bragging rights ànd an honorable spot on the Quake.cz “No Hunting Sign” (which is basicly just a road sign with the signatures of the whole id software crew on it 😛 ).
