    I remember when these came out. People playing Quake complained that the clear water it made possible, was cheating.

      It took me so long to bake all the maps and future map updates from Mods(threewave mostly) and publish on our dorm FTP. People that still play on CPU is at disadvantage for sure.

      But after a while anyone that plays 3d game already have one. It basically trickle down to other players. (ie my voodoo1 was sold cheap to one of my friends back then when I got the voodoo2.)

        Ah man, it was after that, but you just reminded me of people who would raid their HDD so maps would load faster for ut2k4.

      I had a friend who said it was cheating.

      When we would LAN he would just get the lightning gun and jump in the water if there were people in it.
