QL has 3 subscription modes: Standard / Premium / Pro Standard only lets you play around in the standard gamemodes ( FFA / CA / Duel / TDM / Instagib ) in the standard maps and everytime you load a game you have to watch 15secs of ads Premium lets you have access to every map and every gamemode, and you can instantly play without ads Pro is the same as premium, except you can actually launch your own servers, and make your own gamemodes |

| As someone who enjoys both quake and sc2 I highly recomend trying quake out. Esports has it's roots in quake and it's the only duel game better than broodwar (from a competitve standpoint). Competitve 1 on 1 v.ideo games were perfected by quake 3 way back in 1993. No races, no imbalance, only skill. |

| I'll probably play a bit just to get some CPMA action. Can't be bothered to try anything else. |

Also in 1993: * Warcraft Adventures canceled * nVidia releases GeForce 2 * Atari files for bankruptcy (again) * Jimmy Carter elected president of the US * Evil Geniuses Starcraft team formed

Quake live doesnt have the cpm game mode. You will have to go back to q3 for cpm movement and cpm/cpma weapons.
Might reinstall for some duels.. |

Pure Skill indeed, but Quake 3 was 1999

Indeed. It's called PQL though and you'll have to have someone host a server with it enabled in order to play it.
I just recently purchased Pro, so I'm happy to host for any TLers who might want to duel or whatever. Add me if you guys would like.
