Ok, so I'm in process of getting a broadband adapter from craigslist, and I convinced the seller to give me a good deal on it.

If I get it, I want to know how do I connect my dreamcast online to play quake 3 with you guys?

Do I need planetweb browser to configure my dreamcast, and then somehow enter in an ip address of the private quake 3 server?

Do many people play quake 3 online still?

Welcome to Dreamcast-Talk. I just had a brief look at your blog/channel and thought them very interesting.

Yes, some people do still play Quake 3 online, though not many. You will need a US copy of the game plus either XDP or Planetweb 3 browsers.

You should really have posted in the Online section, as you'll get more help there. Also check out the Game Scheduling sections to look for players/upcoming matches.

Welcome to the site!
Hopefully you are able to get a steal of a deal!

Connecting to quake 3 is easy. The master list is not operating at this time. However, dreamcast talk has a burn able iso that will query an alternate master list.
So, getting online with quake 3 is as simple as burning a disc, booting that disc, and clicking "Internet game". You should leave all fields at 0.0.0.0 (unless dc talk tutorial says different) and click next.

No, unfortunately, there are not many who are still using dreamcasts online. Which is why it would be be pretty sweet if you joined the "few"
