Now that the Quake Live Open Beta is released I thought I'd create a thread for people to share quake live usernames so we can add each other to our friends lists.
Mine is the same as on here - MattyFTM
Also, to show you're from giant bomb, add the clan tag "[GB]" to your profile (you do this using the edit profile link in the top right of the screen). I plan on setting up a proper clan once full clan features are implemented, but currently the tag is all that is there.

"registered. name is a3ec same as gamertag. wtf is up with this queue???? also do i have to download something?It's the beta so the servers must not be optimal yet.

Once the servers get updated (or get less populated) and you will be able to join you will only have to download a plugin for your browser. Then you will have a small download which contains the training level where your initial rank will be decided through some bot matches. The other levels actually download while you are playing that ranking match.
"You've got to download a small installer package and install it, then it'll download the rest of the games files in game. The queue is so long because so many people are trying to access it. It moves down fairly quickly though.Endogene said:

"Steve_C said:I got in a game earlier when the queue was reasonably short, decided to play it a bit later, but the queue length has shot up. I guess it's due to people in the UK/Europe finishing work/school and wanting to try it."I just registered with the same username as here: 'Steve_C'.It was 22,000 an hour ago so doubt any of us will be playing it today.
The queue is about 26,000 though... 0_0

My username is LordAndrew. Feel free to add me as a friend or whatever, but it looks like it'll be awhile before I get anywhere...
"Wonder if it is already possible to create clans in the beta. A "GiantBomb" clan would be nice.I've added to the first post that people should use the [GB] Clan tag for now. The tag is all that's there for now, although they plan on having a fuller clan system in the future, which I (or someone else, it doesn't really matter) will set up a propper clan. Here's what the devs say about the clan feature:
"
"How will QUAKE LIVE handle teams/clans?
We currently allow you to add a clan tag to your name, but are looking forward to adding a much more robust team/clan management system. Our initial plans are to have it work separate from, but similar to QUAKE LIVE's friend system. Our primary goals in developing this system are that starting or joining a team is easy and accessible for all players, and being part of a team provides real benefit to players throughout their experience. Team/clan management is in our first "phase" of features we will be working on once we have the open beta out and stable."

Edit: Forgot how fast spaced and twitch based Quake was. Don't think I'll be playing this very much.
