UT Live???

[Sam Stride]

Folks, I got a chance to try out quake live and I think technically we could have a UT live??? What you guys think ???

Epic can we have a UT Live???

[Infra`]

No, not with the current UT3. And probably never with UT. But Quake Live is a really innovative idea, if only it was a fun for me.

Steve Polge handled this question in a recent interview with Videogamer.com: http://www.videogamer.com/news/26-02-2009-10764.html

VideoGamer.com: Changing topic... Have you seen or played much of Quake Live?

SP: I haven't had much of a chance to play it, though I tried it out once really quickly. It's a cool idea, a neat experiment. We're always looking for new ways to bring games to people, especially on PC, so it'll be interesting to see how it does.

VideoGamer.com: Do you think it's something that Epic might explore in the future?

SP: The problem is that we're a relatively small company, and we have more projects that we'd like to do than we can really explore, so I guess it's hard to say that it will makes its way to the top of the pile of things we want to do.

VideoGamer.com: But as an idea?

SP: I think in the long term... By the time we'd be doing that, there will probably be more of a track record, the right way will be clearer.

If EPIC ever came out with UT Live i would never get off of it

I tried Quake Live. I sat in line for 1/2 hour then bailed out.
Unless players can have instant action, I don't this will work.

The queue is there right now because their servers would crash if they let everyone on at once, come back to Quake Live in a month or two when the hype has died down and the queue should be all but non-existent.

Its in beta so ya you'd expect this...

epic we can has UT LIVE??? PLEASE
