Sometimes there's a long delay when hitting the button and the game actually closing. The longest I've seen it hang is 2 minutes. If I hit Esc during a map load to quit the game, I'm taken to the Quit screen, but it's frozen as in I can't bring down the console. And instead of the qlive logo, the background looks like r_showimages 1. I've noticed both issues over a year ago now.

i freeze with /quit or leave match... started today.

Same to me
I tried different browsers (IE8/9, FF7, QLPrism,... )
Fu..ing bullshit sometimes even during game,... :(

I got this again since update, sometimes it takes 20-30sec to exit :(

also: I still get "stops" when friend activity occurs, is that really fixed?

Same shit here, freezes for 10-20 seconds before joining and when you /quit.

It's fucking annoying

Same.

/offtopic but uhm...Is there a reason why the following bug has never been fixed btw..?

- Vote a non premium map > vote fails > repeat the same vote > cursor magically selects Aerowalk instead of the map you actually voted.

okay lets think about it for a sec... first map in list is aerowalk, which will be automaticly selected when u close call vote window. i dont get it, why would that map be called to vote i just dont get it

When you re-open the window, it looks like it still has your most recently voted map selected, but it actually selects the 1st one on the list:

who cares u know how to prevent it, and bitching aint how

Or they could just fix the problem....

what problem??????????? console > callvote map X NO PROBLEM

You're missing the point. The point is that its a stupid GUI bug that probably takes five minutes to fix, yet id just ignores the issue, and this game just gets buggier and slower and more fucked up with every update.

i just solved the problem, and if ur not happy with that solution; re-select the map u want voted. what u are explaining isnt a problem, its just u who is being stubbern. would u be happier if the marker was at aerowalk instead of blood run (in the screenshot)? the "problem" u are explaining is as important as a typo in botchat, also something that would take 5 minutes to fix

Sure, I could type in my map votes in console, but if they are going to have this callvote menu, why the fuck shouldn't it be perfect? For fuck's sake id, just take five minutes to revise the code of this menu and fix this shit.

More importantly, the point is farther reaching than the callvote function. This is how id addresses every problem with this game. Just ignore it. Their attitude towards this game is, "Who gives a fuck?" Instead of doing some small patches that fix very minor, yet annoying issues such as this one, they just pile on bug after bug with each new update. And they wonder (maybe?) why this game is a business failure.

im sry, what bugs are u talking about?

The website itself runs like shit too. Game has been down for lengthy periods multiple times in the last month. Routing seems to only get worse (which I realize isn't entirely on id).

This happens with ql prism

with ff and palemoon as well mate.

this sucks :/

No problems with prism here.

somehow it is no freezing atm :D

thought it was just me. sometimes it even crashes the ql plugin and messes up my desktop brightness.

same here.

got no problem, get prismQL, and skilzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Freezes with Prism too.

now that u debunked every other possibilty its all so clear. hes a liar.

No, Prism obviously freezes when you run it in Quake Live's plugin container.

nothing freezes for me, stop cheating and get decent pc that can handle 10 years old game

same for everyone. same on all the PCs i tested QL.

I'm disappointed; why are there no "GO BACK TO THE QL FORUMS" posts.

I think it's because 50% of ESR has ignored me. :(

pretty solid 50% ignorelist by Fudge911 innit

also: go back to the ql forums

Have a [+].

Same here, ql freezes on firefox either with leave game or quit. Before the update none ql problems when exiting a server, now when I leave a game, I have to use ctrl alt del to stop it. Btw, the site is slow as well.

My theory, id messed up the latest ql update which created this leave bug, plus more ppl got interested to play ql due to the new maps, so the site cant handle that many players and is awfully slow.

It used to be like this a while back until they fixed it, happened after an update.
Exactly like now.

This problem was before the update too !

Looks like it waits on some connection to IGA (ql ad stuff) and then times out :S

I have this problem since the update aswell!


i'm using IE8 for quakelive.

yea this bug + theres another one related, if you are in a match and a timeout is called, leave match does not work until timein.

I don't have it at exits anymore (since 6-7 hours ago) but still have it when I want to connect.

so, the game has been dead competitively for a while now, the community is almost completely drained, and now the website/connectivity is deteriorating at a rapid pace

i'm done playing this trash heap

i'm taking vengeance in my tank in bf3, come join the fun!

Yeah, happens to me too.
And btw, the site is down.

Now as its already bumped...

It happens to me 70% of the times. I freeze for about 10-20sec. It seems like there is a lower risk of the game getting freezed during the post-game results screen, but even there, it might happen.

not to worry, ql staff fixes these things once every 6th month or so

Don't expect this one to ever be fixed.

Welcome to the club.

20 seconds lag when entering/leaving servers.

open console
type /q
click tab
click enter
it's like 100hitcombo to quit from ql

I only tend to do that while on practice servers, for some reason.

EDIT: Just confirmed. /quit doesnt do the trick (for me).

I guess it's the ad system again, alt-enter + go back to website is the fastest way to quit now

So this "bug" is back I guess.

Anyone else experiencing extensive waiting when connecting/disconnecting?

I don't know what causes it.

I've had it since I switched to qlprism. Maybe qlprism is to blame? ad-block?

I'm prem and it also happens when I disconnect.

i chrome i get it

Sampler matches updated: FREEZE tag. Get it????
