Counter-Life Updated

[CSN NewsBot]

Counter-Life, a Half-Life mod, has received a much needed update that brings it up to Beta 6 status. For those that do not know, or have simply forgotten (the last update came during August of 2003), CL allows the use of Counter-Strike weapons in Half-Life. Major updates in this new release include the addition of the Galil and FAMAS. The following is the list of all the new features:

GAMEPLAY:

- Leeches now gives cash when killed.

- Penalties removed.

- Commands 'bankrupt', 'cl_colors', 'cl_monhealth' and 'cl_shellstay' removed.

- Wallpuffs added (Triple thanks to ttt [from Poke646] for this)

- Added command for getting knife, suit, 15 armor and full money: 'terra'.

- Weapon buying in Xen.



WEAPONS:

- All weapons client side.

- Glock's burst fire improved.

- 5.7mm ammunition now penetrates walls.

- Galil and Famas addded (Finally!).

- Readded Flashbangs.

- Elites price reduced.

- Increased number of buckshots for shotguns.

- Altered all weapons' damage. Should be better now.

If you are looking to spice things up, or simply have an undying urge of blowing away Alien Grunts, Gargs, or even Grunts with an AWP/Deagle combination, this is definitely your calling.

CL has always been a fun mod. And I'm glad it's updated again.

Just play deleted scenes in cz.......same type of effect...although cl is free and you kill aliens...you choose...but if you ask me ritual had an awsome game and the turtle rock product is just retarded in my opinion...its cs with bots same setup and layout...rounds are conducted same way as regular online cs and everything else is pretty much the same except instead of being able to decide for yourself what to do next round...the game tells you waht to do...BORING.....The deleted scenes are what i expected from cz and RITUAL delivered....for an unfinished game it was a ton of fun and good overall

*10/10 RITUAL

*3/10 Turtle Rock (and thats being generous)



Its just too bad i dont get to play with the ritual models online.....unless i want to import them and do all that work....nope...fuck it...good job ritual i appreciate what you did

i agree with you totally, i thought ritual was doing a great job with CZ -- i liked the plot line, the levels, the models, etc. but valve kicked them out and let turtlerock in? were they on drugs at the time? *sigh*



anyways, i'm off to play counter-life -- it rules

im reinstalling hl just to play cl. its that much fun

[Supersonic^]

Does it work with Steam?

[Mrknowitall1919]

ya thats wat i wanna know, i am about to download it, but i might not if it doesn't work with steam.

[marc___1]

it does work with steam but you will have to get all the models/sprites/sounds form a cs1.5 install (or the cs1.6 cache)

and copy them to the cl folder

if you dont have cs1.5 you can download the files from

http://www.counterstrikeshome.de/csmodels.php3 (only weapon models i think)

http://www.counterstrikeshome.de/cssounds.php3

http://www.counterstrikeshome.de/cssprites.php3



if you need any help

goto the official cl forums (http://forums.csbanana.com/forumdisplay.php?f=39)

[Relica Religia]

Yeah, but I'm forced to open Milkshape and manually flip all the 1.6 weapons because CL still doesn't have the weapon-switcher. D:

[Glamador]

considering i have been spending all of my time for the past 6 months finding the best possible skins ever created for CS, i was able to play the older versions of CL easily with all my custom models. :) Its a terrific mod with great multiplayer in my opinion. If any of you wanna play me in CL (which nobody plays online so im dying for a partner) then email me at cory.conahan@pinecrest.edu or IM me on AIM at "CorMacDa7th"

CL is actually suprisingly fun for a single player game.

[[7bits]Slownumb]

ofcourse its fun. It combines the best single player game (imho) and the best multiplayer game (imho)
