New CS: Source Update Released

[Que_?]

So if no update today, will we get HL2 pre-load?

[-:Nighthawk:-]

Why are people so concerned about the HL2 texture preload? Oh no, we haven't gotten a bunch of art resources that we can't use for anything! Oh me oh my! Seriously...



I can't wait to try out that fire stuff, hehe. >:)

[jojojohanson]

none of the preload or the game matters to me much if they dont fix the aim/netcode lag...valve I hope youre reading this...

[superm0nk]

When I use hldsupdatetool, I get updates for the hl2 server as well. Something must be brewing.

Show that it's real.

Show that it's getting closer to release. Something is better then nothing at all.

Show that when valvE set a date, they hit it!

Like to see the icon.

Like to see the files.



If it doesn't happen I sure that it's not looking too good for HL2 to hit the September release time. Seriously...

I would think the CS: Source beta is plenty of evidence that HL2 is close to release.

The people over at steam need to patch hitboxes/recoil/whatever that makes shots register. Today 5 kids got killed from a glocker at near point blank range, and then shotgun kids running round killing people at long range with head shots? This crap is lame dude... not only that but sky walkers and crap.



I cant seem to find a decent server to play in without some kid being lame using exploits. Also, there is an sprite exploit/glitch/bug that they still havent patched yet that allows you to put ! over every ones head. So now you can see people behind boxes and camping.



Another thing, r_drawlights 1 is an exploit. allows awpers to see where enemy is fireing and prefire the wall/box/pathing area.



I am not gonna waste my time sitting here explaining all the lamenessess of the beta and yes i know its a beta but still these facts should be adressed. I'm not flamming just merely stating them.



have a nice day.

ahhh, no more wire mode, to cheat around with . I mean debug ~_~

[Mooky]

For some reason I cannot access the console in CS:S. does anyone else have this problem? also i cant change teams in CS:S. =/

[op]

Console - options -> keyboard -> advanced, you have to enable it there.



On people's complaints about fairness, unless it is a weapon balance issue i dont see the problem. I'm surprised they took anything out and referred to it as a "cheat". It is a beta for the ENGINE. They are looking for engine issues, not xyz developer ability that wasn't disabled that someone found.

[Linux]

I'm no saying its a cheat... I just saying it was funny to play, because reminded me what a cheat would look like . Well parts of it, I liked the debug, man my CS:S looked like CS for a couple rounds when screwing with it MUHAHAHA!

Pretty good. I wouldn't mind a new map, but as it's a Beta just to test out the engine, I don't see it being done. I hope I'm wrong though.



Those green exclamations are fun though, especially through a smoke cloud where all you can see is the green and you get a kill from it . Yes I know, it needs to be fixed.



I'd be happy with a skywalking fix, and the green exclamation fix. Perhaps also a fix to prevent "weapon stacking" (Throw a weapon right on top of another weapon to create a tower of weapons. It can get quite bad when you throw smoke grenades like that and they start producing this horrible noise as they're spinning on top of each other.

[T|2i|34L]

Speaking of - someone actually yelled at me the other night and told me to "get rid of that damn exclamation point". What. a. moron.

[azz0r]

LOL



Ive had many a dodgy kill because of it.



The smoke grenade needs to be relaxed! It can be thrown in a barrel, on a players head or on a weapon stack and it bounces around like a banshee creating a right racket



Also I think they should make a dropped bomb a physic object (they probably havent because itd allow some sort of exploit no doubt). Im having fun drawing terroists in to collect a gun then shooting it away and owning them >D
