IS servers now that QL is out of beta?

I'm not really sure who I should be putting this question to so I figured I would just throw it onto these forums and hope that somebody from IS who knows something sees it. Quake live was 'realeased' yesterday with a new business model involving subscriptions, including having to subscribe to host game instances on id servers.

 

So, with this in mind, is IS still going to be able to run their lovely QL servers for us? Would be such a shame to see the game dissappear from SA because it got released :P

 

Any info will be greatly appreciated :D

I was also curious about when they were coming back; unaware of the new requirements for linking servers. :s

Hi IS Gaming,

 

Also curious about this. So hoping its just a glitch and not the end of local QL servers :/

 

Please keep us up to date if you can about this; much appreciated.

I will make Kradenko aware of this if he has not looked into it already.

 

As far as I know, IS will host servers if they dont have a service fee. CSS/TF2/CS/COD4 etc do not cost extra per month other than the hosting hardware that IS have. Lets hope the hosting of servers for these new maps do not cost anything extra.

Hi,

As X stated, their business model has changed somewhat so we are unsure about the future of the server. We are going to keep it running as long as iD is prepared to keep it running from their side. The server is provided by ISGaming, access to the box and what happens on the box is iD softwares responsibility. We don't have access to the box.

As stated above they will be looking into why the server isn't running.

Krad.
