So it does not work with Win 7 for sure Tried the Quake Live beta and don't like the fact you have to register to get a key (not sure if it's still beta) then install some sort of plugin. Also can you have 1 v 1 matches with a mate if so how difficult is it to setup with Quake Live?
It's open beta now.. when you register you register your in-game name so it can record your stats, gain rewards for killing x people in a round etc.
The plugin it installs is actually the game, it downloads/updates through your browser automatically.
1v1s are fairly simple: you can add your friends to your friends' list and see what game they're playing on, or look through the server list to find a 1v1 server for you both to join.
