Q3 Flag







Quake3:Arena is the 3rd in the series of Quake games which have been around for years offering fast paced, Adrenaline filled action.

A large proportion of FPS (first person shooter) gamers have cut their teeth on one of the 3 games in this quake series.

Modes of play
There are four playing modes in Quake3:

  • Duel (1v1): Pits 1 player against another in a duel arena.
  • Free For All (FFA): Also known as Deathmatch, this mode pits you, a player against up to 15 others in a battle to gain the most frags (points) after the timelimit is hit.
  • Team Deathmatch (TDM): The goal is the same for 'free for all', but this time the players are split into two teams, and only the overall team score will decide the victor, and of course the loser.
  • Capture The Flag (CTF): Two teams. One red, the other blue, each with the goal of capturing the other teams flag. This is done by taking the other teams flag and returning it back to your base where upon touching it with yours, points are rewarded. Of course the other team is trying to do exactly the same! CTF games can be fast and furious with each team desperately trying to hold on to their own flag.









Server Changes - Thursday 21th December

A number of server IP addresses have been changed. If your using gamespy or another server browser, and can't see the BarrysWorld servers, then either refresh/update your list, or simply refresh the master server.

More details about the IP moves can be found here.
