If you played 10six back in the day, check out Project Visitor, also join the Project Visitor steam group. The game is still alive and kicking.

I miss HEAT.NET - I really loved the concept and how it was a central hub for people to jump into games together.

Quake Remaster got me nostalgic - remembering the old days of HEATNET

Mostly played q1/ra3 on heat.net . Had a clan called [KING] and my handle was [KING]CoBrA. Heat.net was great ;) :steamhappy:

Making clan websites on geocities. I use to play Quake2 and Battlezone using heat.net .
23 Apr, 2017 @ 1:12am 
lol was in ICE, I've seen the angelfire page was still up

Any of you guys remember the heat.net interactive screensaver??? You could control a heat.net UFO and manipulate the cows (and people?) below... I can't find any evidence of it ANYWHERE. Please tell me I'm not crazy lol.
5 Feb, 2017 @ 12:41am 
i remember ICE subzer0 haha

I played on heat.net from '97 till its demise. Played mainly quake 2, used ign r1sktaker. I would be on the quake 2 dm servers or the quake 2 team ctf servers. I miss the format heat.net used for the lobbies and launching games.

For anyone who doesn't know, the ICE clan website is still out there:

So much nostalgia...

♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥, I can't believe this group exists. I played in ICE, BLAZE, and AA as ar00. Playing quake on heat back in those days was so awesome. So many fond memories.
14 Aug, 2016 @ 8:06pm 
I used to be Dukey2 on Heat.net . Mainly chilled in the Quake 2 lobby. Miss those golden days...
17 Jul, 2016 @ 7:54pm 
Total annihilation was years ahead of its time. I miss playing that and Quake while listening to the Hackers soundtrack.
Miss you all. 10six the game that never was.
12 Apr, 2016 @ 7:56pm 
Miss those days in Quake II edge and maingate as k3rnij or k3rn3lkill3r. Was good being young. Migrated from heat.net to mplayer then to gamespy arcade.
19 Jan, 2016 @ 7:10am 
Quake 2 CTF, Railz only was how i rolled on heat.net
8 Jan, 2016 @ 9:29am 
I played in Clan 5 as c5lMaximus, a quake clan on heat.net and competed with other clans such as MAAS. After heat.net died after the summer of 2000, I moved to mplayer :)
28 Dec, 2015 @ 11:10pm 
Used to be ICExFusion part of the ICE quake clan on heat.net . Before that I was BLAZExDRAGON. Was a long time ago.. mountain dew, surge, tin-foiled windows, 14.4k modem.
18 Dec, 2015 @ 8:02pm 
I seriously miss heat.net . Damn I'm old.
11 Apr, 2015 @ 10:51pm 
Deathdrome and 10six were my jam.
20 Feb, 2015 @ 11:40am 
HEAT.NET destroys all! I still use the name I came up with on there when I was 13. I may have even killed some of you (likely on Quake or Quake 2).
12 Feb, 2015 @ 11:45am 
I played competitively in Age of Empires and Age of Empires II, I was GeneralMercenary and later LordMercenary on Heat.net . I'm looking for old friends like Doomsday, ZephyrusX, and even that scrub ImmortalClubman (Clubby). Oh and who can forget Flubber?
9 Feb, 2015 @ 1:38pm 
I played Quake and later Quake 2 on Heat.net . I remember late nights of E1M7...

Tapewormz I couldn't find General Heat in the member list, could you link his profile to me?
14 Jan, 2015 @ 7:31am 
I was a huge fan of DukeNukem3D through heat.net . Good times.
14 Jan, 2015 @ 7:30am 
10six... Now that was a game WAY ahead of its time. :)
30 Dec, 2014 @ 2:27pm 
Forgot to ask, does anyone have a copy of DeathDrome (sp)? I remember it being a Heat exclusive game like TenSix, but it was a openish world Tron-style game.
30 Dec, 2014 @ 2:24pm 
Was a moderator from 97-00 in the Quake lobby with HeatCrow. Lots of fun times on Heat, unfortunately Chips & Bits didnt ship to Canada, I had close to $700 in degrees that went unspent.
14 Dec, 2014 @ 4:44am 
@[DMFD]Postalrad,
Yup, I'm the same Tapewormz.

@Spanky,
General Heat might have a disc laying around.
9 Dec, 2014 @ 6:09pm 
Anyone know where I can find the HEAT.net installer? I want to use the sounds and parts of the UI for my OS and phone.
28 Oct, 2014 @ 9:40am 
Very cool to find this. I was xXminionXx. Before Steam and Ventrilo, hell, before XBL and PSN... There was HEAT.net .

Good times. Glad all of you are well.
25 Jul, 2014 @ 10:31pm 
Pretty much a dead thread I know but I'd love to find some old Clan@ members from the old Heat.Net days. Spent tooooo many hours playing Q2 and D3D on Heat!!!
15 May, 2014 @ 11:09pm 
Hey, rage84 from the all the quake servers - WOW I can not believe this is on steam haha, love it.
I miss Heat.net it was AGES ahead for its time. Damn DreamCast crushed my online gaming as a kid!!
12 May, 2014 @ 8:08pm 
I used to be Dukey2. Spent many hours in the Quake 2 lobbies
28 Apr, 2014 @ 6:48pm 
I was just chatting with some friends about old time gaming and SiN came up. I actually was a game moderato/referee for many Heat.Net SiN competitions way back when. Pretty sure my name on there was sp00ge (as I've been using that handle for decades now).
11 Feb, 2014 @ 6:53pm 
Hey guys, I led the WYDO team in the first Da Bomb Clanblast competition and won the 1998 Comcast @Home HEAT.NET Quake 2 tournament. Good to see you guys are around, I feel like a dinosaur now. :blockhead:
28 Jan, 2014 @ 7:32am

5 Nov, 2013 @ 6:34pm 
Roadkill, you can probably simulate the connection you need using Hamachi. I've played a number of old games over it. You'll probably have to install an IPX protocol.. it was a lot easier on XP, I haven't looked into it on 7.
27 Oct, 2013 @ 5:24am 
Heat.net , was my portal into PC gaming full time!
18 Oct, 2013 @ 9:16pm 
EarthStorm001 in Descent 2, Q2 and 10Six. What an awesome thing to be a part of.
9 Oct, 2013 @ 12:14pm 
Oh yeah... same username then too. Never changes lol
9 Oct, 2013 @ 12:13pm 
Hell yes I miss Heat.net . Man... so many Blood, Duke3D and Shadow Warrior deathmatches. Gawd... those were the days. I wish there was another Heat.net type service so I could play Two Forts in Blood again with my friends. Never-ending supply of proxy mines piled in one area + random spawning = hilarity.
30 Sep, 2013 @ 12:45pm 
I went by Tyrin as my heat ID in warcraft 2. Usually played w/name The Damned in-game. Played from 96 - 99.
19 Dec, 2011 @ 8:43pm

18 Dec, 2011 @ 5:20pm
