because part of CS 1.6 is the new GUI and console changes. unless they were included the steam and download versions would be incompatible.

The man's got a point you know.
then it begs the question: why even incoporate cs1.6 into steam for the beta?

By download normally I mean you will have to hammer any and every site that will host the new release for hours on end until you find a server you can download from.
Right... downloaded normallyComment

wow, for a lot of people, steam won't even show up on their desktops. You know what this means? Valve can just take away counter-strike from all of us and we can never play because Steam is the only way we can play it!Comment

the whole point of beta testing is to pin point exact problems and sources of error. it just seems to me that adding steam to the equation when it wont even be incorporated into the final release, would only complicate matters.
edit: actually I take that back, I suppose steam would be ideal for beta testing. its a lot better than distributing a ton of small fixes and downloads via the conventional means. DUH.

The dreaded 1.4 patch was BETA tested (a private BETA) using steam before it was released.
