I struggle to find a server with humans and not bots and also some servers appear many times in the list (I guess their owners are trying to cheat the system). OpenArena server list looks much more civil in comparison:
So are there any other server list for Q3 or are default master servers all there is? Perhaps well known servers that people frequent
I play Q3A online every now and then and yeah, you're just going to find a lot of empty servers or ones populated with bots or ones with very few actual humans and I mean it's to be expected. it's a nearly 30 year old game. If you go on IRC on like Libera chat or quakenet you can get into some rooms that have decently active servers but i'm talking like maybe less than 5.
