Xonotic is great, been playing it almost since it started. Also contributed some music to it!

I've always been amazed in particular by how polished it is for an open source game. Don't think I've ever heard anyone that tried it say they didn't enjoy it either, though generally folks don't stick around, save for a couple.

Most of the current playerbase is situated in Europe though I think, so you gotta play at times that make sense for those time-zones if you wanna see players (evenings usually pretty active).

And lots of Russians! Super game. I've only been playing it for about a year, and didn't really do much gaming for about 20 years prior to that. It reminded me of the best of Q3 and UT2004 in one game.

I've probably killed you / been killed by you a bunch of times.

Slightly rarer for me to play lately, haha! But you may have seen some of my clanmates, such as psyx|Pendulla, he plays quite often.

You're right about the Russian presence, it has gotten to the point where using "))" to indicate smileys has become a community thing, Russian or not :D
