Hi

just wanted to start quake3. i had to wait a very long time until the menu came up. i took a look into the console and noticed that the problem was punkbuster, because it could't connect to the server. any solutions?
thanks!

I noticed the same problem when I tried to play Quake3 offline (Single Player) with no internet connection running. It seems that once PunkBuster is installed, Quake3 ALWAYS does some sort of internet access every time you start it up. If you play a lot in single player mode the startup delay gets to be a hassle. Not sure how to get around it though.......joe

This happens to me on PC as well, usually when I goto a lan. You have to turn off punkbuster. pb_cl_disable in console.

Hope This Helps.
