'''Quake Live''' (previously known as Quake Zero) is a [[FPS]] video game by [[id Software]] designed to run on x86-based computers running [[Microsoft Windows]], [[Mac OS X]], or [[Linux]] that is downloaded and launched via a browser plugin. It is a variant of its predecessor, [[Quake III Arena]] (Q3A). The game first appeared in [[2007]], entered an invitation-based closed beta in [[2008]], and an open beta began on February 24, [[2009]]. | |||
Quake Live | The gameplay of Quake Live consists of players attempting to frag more of their opponents than any other player or team in a given match. This is achieved by navigating a 3D environment while collecting health, armor, weapons, ammo, and various power-ups in an effort to survive and to defeat opponents. | ||
Quake Live was released as a free version of [[Quake III: Gold]] (Quake III and its expansion pack, [[Quake III: Team Arena|Team Arena]]) available only through a [[web browser]]. Quake Live is backed financially by in-game advertising from IGA Worldwide. Skill-based matchmaking is powered by a "metagame engine" developed by GaimTheory. Development of the match-making system was taken on by id Software after GaimTheory's collapse. | |||
