Anyone want a QUAKE LIVE invite?


Recommended Posts

Ok guys, Quake Live are having a MAJOR stress test tomorrow so if you've signed up, don't be surprised if they're going to email you an invite.

But, if you'd like to remain on the safe side, I have TWO invites to give away.

The site appears to be getting hammered at the moment, but the game has been working smoothly for me.

Since the stress test is tomorrow, I'm planning on sending the invites out within the next few hours, all I need is an email address to send them to. I haven't decided quite HOW I'm going to decide who gets the invite, but there will be a preference for upstanding members of the community, so no 1 post wonders please ;p

EDIT: This has been made the sort of "Official Quake Live invite thread", so if you haven't got one, this is the place to look! Don't go PMing random people, I'm sure if you ask nicely here, people will give you one if they can spare it. All anyone needs is your email and your first and last name.

Invites are sent out ONCE per hour, so if you don't get one right away, fret not! You might have just missed the last batch.

If you DO get an invite from someone here and happen to get invites yourself, please think of your fellow neowinners and give them to those here that request them =)

Ahh...I'm afraid guys, BeLGaRaThis going to get it. Didn't really want to disappoint a lot of people, but he IS a longstanding member of neowin, he's a subscribor and he does live in the same City as me (And thus may be buy me a drink at some point, hint hint =P) and he used to work with a friend of mine (But he doesn't know that, oooohhhhh stalking is fun!).

Pm me your email, BeLGaRaTh!

We can turn this into the offical INVITE thread.

For some reason when he invited my first email, the one I thought I used to sign up to the beta for, it said I already GOT an invite,.. which I never did.

(It'll be disturbing if it arrives tomorrow.)

So I had to give him an email I rarely use...

But if I get any invites I'll be sure to fire them off to friends. :)

I only got my invite yesterday, so there's a good chance you'll get 2 as well =)

I never even got the official email to sign in.. thats what worries me.

I check the email I used to sign up for it every single day.. I never saw it in the spam folder, OR the inbox.

No idea what the hell happened to it.

Maybe it went to Phobos instead of me.

Im in the same boat Andrew-DB :( All I can do is choose the practice game. It plays very well though, I'm very surprised, and the AI seems to scale well to your play.

I forgot to mention before, thanks Kushan for the invite code, Kudos to you for that, much appreciated.

    • You're absolutely right! No reason in hell these should be on the road!
    • They aren't going to want to. Most would just go with the 17 Pro and save money. Why would they want to spend $300 for basically the same thing? It's not worth it if there are hardly any changes from year to year.
    • 24H2 rolled out to the Release Preview Channel in early June 2024, so this coming a bit later in the Experimental Channel (formerly Dev) doesn't really say much more than earlier H2 releases that came out in October. I am not sure what the thinking is here by putting it in Experimental, one would think that the 26H2 stamp means features are locked down and it's now bug tested until October? I don't even pretend to understand Microsoft's strategy for Windows Insider Program though
    • Nothing Ear (a) and CMF Buds Pro 2 with active noise cancellation drop to lowest price ever by Fiza Ali With Prime Day 2026 scheduled to run from Tuesday 23 to Friday 26 June, Amazon has already begun rolling out early access offers ahead of the main event. Particularly, Nothing Ear (a) and CMF Buds Pro 2 wireless earbuds have dropped to their lowest price ever with limited Prime deal offering 33% and 24% discounts, respectively. Nothing Ear (a) are equipped with 11mm dynamic drivers featuring a PM1 + TPU diaphragm. For noise control, the earbuds offer active noise cancellation (ANC) of up to 45dB across frequencies reaching 5,000Hz. The smart ANC algorithm adapts to surrounding noise levels, while a Transparency Mode allows users to remain aware of their environment when needed. Connectivity is handled via Bluetooth 5.3, with support for AAC, SBC, and LDAC audio codecs. Additional features include IP54-rated earbuds for dust and splash resistance, paired with an IPX2-rated charging case. Furthermore, users also benefit from pinch controls, in-ear detection, Google Fast Pair, Microsoft Swift Pair, dual-device connectivity, and a low-latency mode designed for gaming and video playback. The Nothing X app unlocks a range of customisation options, including a personalised equaliser, bass enhancement, control remapping, ear tip fit testing, firmware updates, dual-device management, a Find My Earbuds feature, and low-latency mode settings. When it comes to the battery, the earbuds house a 46mAh lithium-ion battery, while the charging case contains a 500mAh cell. With ANC disabled, users can expect up to 9.5 hours of playback from the earbuds and up to 42.5 hours in total with the charging case. With ANC enabled, battery life is rated at up to 5.5 hours per charge and up to 24.5 hours combined with the case. Finally, fast charging is also supported that should provide up to 10 hours of playback from a 10-minute charge with ANC turned off. Nothing Ear (a) Wireless Earbuds (Black): $53.20 (Amazon US) - 33% The CMF Buds Pro 2 feature a dual-driver audio system consisting of an 11mm bass driver and a 6mm micro-planar tweeter. The earbuds use PU (polyurethane) and PET (polyethylene terephthalate) titanium-coated diaphragms and are tuned by Nothing to deliver balanced audio performance. They further support active noise cancellation of up to 50dB across a frequency range of up to 5,000Hz, and noise control features include a Smart ANC algorithm, Adaptive ANC, Transparency Mode, and Clear Voice Technology 2.0. For calls, the CMF Buds Pro 2 use a total of six microphones and feature an environmental noise-cancelling algorithm, Clear Voice Technology 3.0, and Wind Noise Reduction 3.0 that should improve voice clarity during conversations. Furthermore, when it comes to the connectivity, it is provided through Bluetooth 5.4. Additional features include an IP55 rating for dust and water resistance, Google Fast Pair, Microsoft Swift Pair, in-ear detection, a low-latency mode, and a Find My Earbuds function. Moreover, through the Nothing X app for Android and iOS, users can access custom EQ settings, a bass enhancement algorithm, customisable controls, Find My Earbuds, low-latency mode, dual-device connectivity, an ear tip fit test, and firmware updates. The earbuds contain a 60mAh rechargeable lithium-ion battery, while the charging case houses a 460mAh battery. A full charge of the earbuds and case via USB-C should take approximately 85 minutes, while the earbuds alone should be fully recharged in the case in around 60 minutes. Battery life is rated at up to 11 hours of playback on a single charge and up to 43 hours with the charging case when ANC is turned off. With ANC enabled, playback time is reduced to up to 6.5 hours on the earbuds and up to 26 hours with the charging case.
