Cmon, after that dynamic buying shit they did in the past, I don't expect anything better.

oh yea, I forgot that you don't even have to buy ammo in Source :lol

(not to mention, you have to use the awful new buy menu, ughhhhh)

You used to have to buy ammo in source, they changed that a while back. Can we get in-game pics up in here? The only videos on youtube have been removed, I'm really anxious to see what stuff looks like!

Guys don't plant the bomb in the well, the fish fuck up the defuses.
 
Impossible to get into any servers here, but new source-effects look good. Other than that nothing to exciting.

I'm not sure why people get so excited to start playing all of a sudden, it's just a graphical upgrade, along with some hud-improvements and achievements. Core game seems the same to me.

achievements, stats (OMG MY KD RATIO IZ GOIN DOWN *quits*), killcam and "domination and revenge system" seems like they really want this game to be a pub game. Throw in the terrible hitboxes and near non-existent recoil and you got yourself pubbers paradise.

Thankfully, goobers like you segregated yourselves by staying with 1.6.
How many pixels above the head to one shot with the AWP?
I don't know, but I bet you do!

Before douches and frat boys had Halo multiplayer, they had Counterstrike.

So how does that make it less competitive than it was before?

How do you get this update? My game didn't update when launching steam and there is no achievement list when I start up the game.

Fake Edit: They filled it already! FUUUUUUU..

Fuck, I should have signed up when I had the chance. Didn't realize it would be a limited number. I don't really care either way though

How am I supposed to get 1,000 kills with an AWP if no servers allow it anymore?

Achievement servers. Like TF2, there will be plenty of them in CSS to hog the main server list! Wait, maybe not because there are no apparent bonuses for unlocking them AFAIK.

Why are you trying to play comp in pub servers; isn't that what scrims and pugs are for?

what the fuck are you talking about? How could you play competitively in a public server? All of this shit is gonna be patched into the game, it's not some pub only stuff.

You wannabe pro asshats can go play 1.6 or something. Have fun headshotting pixels, brah.

What exactly does this change in the comp scene? Domination/revenge is just worked into an existing system of killing anyway. Stats have been so many servers anyway it's hardly a new addition either and achievement won't alter anything in competitive play - maybe in pub matches - but anything to get people to try different weapons and different maps can only be a good thing.

Yeah, and how does it change at all how you're going to play comp? Are people going to all of a sudden start going for achievements in scrims?

you'd have thought they'd throw in a couple of hitbox changes just to appease 1.6 generation.

I thought it was obvious nothing can appease the 1.6 generation.

From what I've seen the achievements are mostly stuff you'd do normally anyway.
 
Valve has succeeded with this news, I'm now interested in CS:S. I've played a bit of old CS and it's fun but it feels old and wonky.

Edit: What. CSS is kinda expensive for being such an old game, especially compared with TF2 with its insane ammount of content. Hope the update comes with a nice sale :lol

To be fair, CS:S might be lacking in number of maps but the maps that are there are pretty fucking good
 
Just played some, game looks nicer and smoother due to the lighting, something about it compared to the old, but i'll skip on playing this game again I think, TF2 is my go to pc shooter still.

It seems pretty obvious this update is to help get CS ready for the mac release, so I wouldn't be surprised if theres a Valve 'everything pack' sale day 1 of Mac Steam release.


...fuck, I can't imagine what it must be like to be a Mac only gamer to have DoD, CS, TF2, L4D and the HLs all land at once.

Edit: And Portal. Doh.
 
It's funny that i'll probably play the game more when this update comes. And it's mostly because of the achievements? :lol
