If there are still some people old enough to remember those times, it would be interesting to hear their perspective on what Q3 was like back in its very early days (1999 - 2001). How did it play, what bugs were present, what hardware was popular back then. Was it playable without competitive mode? How public games were going? What did patches bring to the table? How competitive scene started to arise?

Would be great to see some interesting stories from the dawn of the new millennium.
