Hi, I'm buying Quake 3 next weekend, so I decided to download the demo version first. How can I fight people over the internet using the demo version?

well its quite simple, the data base is the genre of your game, well, basicly the game you are downloading is "cutted" data from a stored game (your downloading it)and the database (source) is online,so Technicly the game will be offine access, but online input modes,in simple words, your downloading the online game,when you play you will still be linked by int. but you are in a dirrfrent source. The way i would say it to a stranger (im not calling you anything) is that there are two int:
1. the int. input access used by millions, moving place to place using addresses and coded labels (URL's)

2. a technological mech. advantage (T.M.A) which is parrallel to the main int. source but is borrowing from it to get the data up and running, it uses its own source which is the game itself, it is linked with its very own URL,it is all wired to one database which is the game, which then allows you to talk to others...

dude, im no nerd, its my dad, hes a super computer man, he can put a computer together resistor to resistor, wire to wire...you get the point, anyways. You seem cool as hell, so ill tell ya what, ill tell ya a little secret...

you know how downloads can get screwed up because your not using its source, just a parrallel link URL (no c.d) if you download and buy the game, you will somtimes come across unharmful glitches,take advantage of them...use them, when it happens in my old c.d, ill be able to teleport when i desire...i used it to defeat the parasite. He is an online user who kills his allies for ammunition and heath...and glory...of course im new at this one,that was unreal tournament, ive had this c.d for a while too....
well i hope all goes best for you when you fight your flawless triumphs...

Just install it and run it. Then go to Multiplayer and change from Local to Internet at the top and see if there's any active servers. I belive there's still a handful running. If you don't see any through the ingame browser you might try Gamespy or search google for active q3demo servers.
