WON Closing This Month

[GFreeman]

Well, aren't these CS 1.5 players still gonna stay with CS 1.5 when CS: Source is out? I'm sure those are the people who just don't have a good internet connection and bad com.

[RaptorRage]

Yep the people that prefer CS 1.5 can join the other 20 players using it on Steam...

[farmer brown]

Heck, who wants to play 1.5 on Steam? People who play 1.5 do so to avoid the steam system in the first place.

[FaScO]

VALVe BETTER MAKE VAC EVEN MORE POWERFULL!!!!! ALL HAXORS FROM 1.5 WILL COME TO STEAM AND THEY WILL RUIN ALL OUR FUN!!!!!! MAKE VAC BETTER SO NO ONE AND AGAIN NO ONE WILL BE ABLE TO HACK!!!!!!

[Zips]

They are people with 56k or are decent people who *wont be pushed around* by stupid updates. they play what they like. and they like 1.5



kthx

[abysmal]

Oh i see so they wont be pushed around by the people who made the game. Let me get the tinyest violin out i can find. Fucking grow up and get with the times.

Not buying anything from VaLVe EVER AGAIN~!

NO HL2

NO CS:CZ

NO CS:SB1



Steam SUXS!



I hope they start charging pay to play so all you steam users can rot in hell.

[Urban Terror]

I know I definetely wont "upgrade" to Steam.



I do have the CS, HL, and Steam files on CD already, so I could get Steam right now on my 56k connection and be playing within an hour since I wouldnt have to dl any huge cache files.



I dont understand what people mean when they say Steam and CS 1.6 has more bug fixes and works better. All I ever hear about Steam is people having FPS problems, hitbox bugs, (btw, we dont get any of those in 1.5), connection errors and lag spikes, and whenever a game update comes out, Ive heard (and seen at the steampowered forums) that Steam and all its games go down for days at a time. I was talking to a friend of mine who uses Steam, he had to stop playing for 3 days because of an update recently.



I dont want to use Steam instead of WON because I dont like Steam and the version of CS that comes with it. The only way I would think about using Steam is if Valve officially released CS 1.5 to be played thru Steam. I know theres a third party mod, and I even tried using Steam for a few hours with it, and there werent any players, or maybe just a few online. So until Valve decides to start distributing CS 1.5 themselves as an "official" game for Steam, (because if they did that, there would be a lot more players), and the WON servers go down, I doubt I will be playing CS or any HL mods online again.

I think it's Steam that's making people reluctant to upgrade to 1.6 and not 1.6 itself.

Gee, who's losing out here? Certainly not us, somehow I don't think you're going to be missed. I suppose Valve is going to miss out on a little bit of cash. On the other hand, you're not going to get to play HL2.



Ouch.
