200/200 turned QL into a spamfest, and you lose all health/armor prediction which was the original strategy in Q3 during online play. In QL, they also turned the rail damage really low, lowered the rocket splash damage, increased the plasma spam damage, and dynamically increased the lightning gun spam damage. Basically all they did was take all the skill based aspects of the game and turned it into a newb friendly spamfest where all you have is people holding down their mouse button. They made it so unskilled people live longer and have a chance by spamming. The strategy is gone. Oh, and they removed the ability to timenudge, so my shots are not hitting where they should either. As far as the gibs go, they decided to take the politically correct route to please german liberal politicians, or at least thats what the developers are saying. It's good to know we were sold out for some euro-pussies' agenda. So yeah, I'm sticking with Q3 and RA3.
rail damage hasnt been turned down... at least not in my experience... it still does 100 points of damage, and will kill an unarmored player in one shot......
the strategy element is still there... in fact, it may be even greater now, since there are so many hit points, you really do want to play it safe against an opponent until you *know* he's been damaged alot....
i dunno, i guess we dont see eye to eye on this, but i will say that quake live is NOT a spamfest... those that try to do that are owned swiftly and repeatedly....
The rail damage is currently at 80.
Every server I've joined in QL is a spamfest.. literally no strategy or skill is involved, especially on the majority of servers having 200/200. There's no weapon strategy left with the only opportunity to get a 100 damage hit by means of a direct rocket or direct grenade.
There's still 3 or 4 servers that are almost full on a daily basis. It's easy to find a game.how big is the remaining RA3 community? still easy to get a decent game going?
My top ten in no particular order...

Liar! This is alphabetical order!
...I'd argue everything on your list was horrid with the possible exception of Sim City, so...
