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
XRPLank 5 Dec, 2017 @ 10:21am

Dantasticool 13 Aug, 2017 @ 11:10am 
Mostly played q1/ra3 on heat.net . Had a clan called [KING] and my handle was [KING]CoBrA. Heat.net was great ;) :steamhappy:
ColdCoffee 2 Jun, 2017 @ 4:42am 
Making clan websites on geocities. I use to play Quake2 and Battlezone using heat.net .

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.
CyanideAssassin 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.
rhubarbmold 6 Sep, 2016 @ 2:24pm 
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.
heartwork96 14 Aug, 2016 @ 8:06pm 
I used to be Dukey2 on Heat.net . Mainly chilled in the Quake 2 lobby. Miss those golden days...
ShadowHeat 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.
Mr. Pipes 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.
MMAN 19 Jan, 2016 @ 7:10am 
Quake 2 CTF, Railz only was how i rolled on heat.net
poros1ty 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 :)
Icez 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.
heartwork96 18 Dec, 2015 @ 8:02pm 
I seriously miss heat.net . Damn I'm old.
Rabidmutt 11 Apr, 2015 @ 10:51pm 
Deathdrome and 10six were my jam.
KillerQ13 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).
madmerlyn 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?
Spanky 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?
SnòóksV3 14 Jan, 2015 @ 7:31am 
I was a huge fan of DukeNukem3D through heat.net . Good times.
SnòóksV3 14 Jan, 2015 @ 7:30am 
10six... Now that was a game WAY ahead of its time. :)
Code-Red 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.
Code-Red 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.
Tapewormz 14 Dec, 2014 @ 4:44am 
@[DMFD]Postalrad,
Yup, I'm the same Tapewormz.

@Spanky,
General Heat might have a disc laying around.
Spanky 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.
volitionVX 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.
Gloveberg 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!!!
XRPLank 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!!
heartwork96 12 May, 2014 @ 8:08pm 
I used to be Dukey2. Spent many hours in the Quake 2 lobbies
brokenpinata 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).
informer 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:
[DMFD]Postalrad 28 Jan, 2014 @ 7:32am

Pastor of Muppets 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.
hl3dsx2 27 Oct, 2013 @ 5:24am 
Heat.net , was my portal into PC gaming full time!
Kung Fu Jesus 18 Oct, 2013 @ 9:16pm 
EarthStorm001 in Descent 2, Q2 and 10Six. What an awesome thing to be a part of.
RoadkillSD 9 Oct, 2013 @ 12:14pm 
Oh yeah... same username then too. Never changes lol
RoadkillSD 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.
Pastor of Muppets 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.
BearSuitAttack 19 Dec, 2011 @ 8:43pm 
Crotch-Goblin is Stubby1, btw! everyone say hi!
Ninjoe 18 Dec, 2011 @ 5:20pm 
Whats up guys, iomegaman here. Its been a long time!
heartwork96 13 Dec, 2011 @ 12:26am 
I was Dukey2. Don't know If any of you remember me. I played Quake 2..day and night...geez..those were the days!
Tapewormz 9 Nov, 2011 @ 8:58am 
Nice post DHalen. If you have contact with any of your old Heat friends, by all means invite them to the group. Grillo is a member of the group, he used to run the Footsoldiers program. I met Reniu in Pennsylvania at the paintball event that Heat.net threw. So much fun. I've been trying to get a hold of Doug for some time for some gaming.
