I read about Quake Live in March in a Gameinformer magazine. It said it was free, and well, I love free games. I have never played Quake before but it looks fun enough. Well right after I read it I immediately signed up for the beta but not even an email saying I didn't get in. Has anyone here gotten into the Beta, One of my friends signed up the day it came out on 3 different emails and he hasn't gotten in yet.
Quake Live
Game » consists of 0 releases. Released Aug 06, 2010
Quake Live is a 'free-to-play' web browser-based FPS from id Software. It is based on the popular game Quake III Arena, and focuses solely on online multiplayer.
Has anyone actually gotten into the beta?
Well eagle, I'm not going to ask you for an invite, but is it worthwile? Is it fun? And will beginners such as myself, get owned within seconds.
Unfortunately I have no way of playing Quake 3 :(. Also, does it run directly out of the browser, so I wouldn't have to download anything in my computer engineering class?
i'm in the beta. its really just quake 3. theres only like 5 or 6 dudes playing at any given time. they're going to pwn you in seconds.

You have to download a plugin for your browser. The game can be played either inside the browser window or fullscreen.
I will be shameless and request an invite if there's one out there. Apparently though they have taken away the ability of clicking a page for your invites, you can still login, then visit quakelive.idsoftware.com/beta/add and type in email addresses there.
