I don't understand how it can only be 300mb isn't this based on the hl2 platform so wouldn't we need to download that also? What exactly are we downloading?

One map. Probably the source engine files. The necessary files to run CS: Source.



Hell, my CS.gcf is only 264MB. Coupled with the CS folder (another 202MB), that amounts to 466MB for the current CS. 300MB for a one map BETA is quite substantial.

The Source engine, Counter-Strike Source, and a map. That's not much.

Btw I see Zips beat me to it, I'm going to report his comment to the moderators now.

Just add CSS to it.

dang i had a bad feeling it was all horseshit from whoever said 28; 10th still sounds a lil early, somehow valve will manage to get hacked again or get a bsod and lose data.

Jesus people. They never said the 28th for us CZ owners. Drive that fact into your heads.



They slated the 28th as a possible preload date. Guess what? Cyber Cafe owners still get the game before us. The 28th may very well be a preload date, JUST NOT FOR CZ OWNERS.

Is there any idea as to when Counter-Stike: source beta will begin

pre-loading? There is mad chaos at the boards with people saying that

CS:s beta will come out tonight, which I know probably isint true.



thanks,

It isn't tonight. It will be closer to the 28th. We'll give people

plenty of warning.



Sounds like it to me.

There was no word of "Condition Zero" owners anywhere in there.



Sorry.

He said there was mad chaos on the boards with people saying that CSS beta will come out tonight. If you think about it and LOOK at the forum there are only a few post on the CyberCafe's...So I think he knew what he was saying... :/



[Edit] Looks more to the "Condition Zero" owners then the "CyberCafe's" owners. If it was I think he would of said Cafe's first then CZ owners.

...is it really that hard to wait? I think some people are mad because they updated their pc's a year ago for nothing.

[NotName]

Don't worry all CSNation.net wouldn't post something unless they though it was true and confirmed. (...right?)

Go on fact and not speculation. You're speculating an awful lot there with your assumption he was talking about CZ owners. There was no word of CZ owners in the original email nor was there any mention of CZ owners in the reply email.



Again, don't make such a huge assumption that the 28th was a preload date for CZ owners when it was never clearly specified as such.

That's why I never take release dates from VALVe seriously.

Ok.. Your right just the facts. FACT: alb1221 is a CZ owner not a CyberCafe's owner.....It really doesn't matter. If you look at the Email. I think that it's more CZ owners then Cafe. I'll will just wait it out and never listen to dates from valvE until it is in my hands.
