Questions
1: What gamer besides yourself do you feel comes to
mind as one of the most respected gamers? This would be
someone who you felt is respected not only for his gaming
skills but for his/her attitude.
Answer:
Probably, it's Fatality. I've had a chance to meet
him personally during the EuroCPL - he's a very good person,
always ready to chat and respects other people. Kane and
Xenon are also good players. I don't know them personally, but
I like their style and approach to game. The rest of players
are just players.
Questions
2: In what way do you feel the Quake community has
changed since Quake III Arena came out last year?
Answer:
The community from professional point of view has
noticeably progressed. The present level of competition is
impossible to compare to amateur one of Quake2 and QW.
Moreover, with each tournament the level of competition
increases . But this professionalism has also ruined carriers
of many good Q2 players - someone just couldn't keep up with
competition.
Questions
3: Have you had a chance to check the Team Arena
Demo yet? If so, what do you enjoy the most about it?
Answer:
Vanilla Quake3 is enough for me, so I haven't
played any of the new things that came out lately for Q3. I
haven't chance to play Team Arena demo.
Questions
4: With id Software's new project being focused on
Doom, is there any features you would like this upcoming game
to include?
Answer:
I'm not done with Quake itself, as there's several
big tournaments in the future. So for now I haven't really
thought about the next Doom.
