CS and Condition Zero Updated - Ads now in CZ

[azz0r]

This makes ZERO sense.



They could use the excuse that CS was free therefore adverts were fine, however when I bought Condition Zero I did not agree to pay towards adverts.



They should make CZ free and refund me.

Faggot Valve. They are the perfectly flawed game company. They make great games, and don't rip you off. But what do they go and do? Why, throw some non-subtle ads into their most popular games. Why? Fuck knows, surely they aren't using much more bandwidth than any of their other, newer titles.

[-:Nighthawk:-]

So ends me playing CS.



I know plenty of others say that, but sadly my hatred of in-game advertisement is so strong that I've refused to play 1.6 since the ads were implemented. CZ was my refuge until now, and even this has been taken from me. From the beginning I haven't enjoyed playing CS:S, so there no longer is a legit version of CS that I enjoy.



I guess I'll pick up a hacked version of 1.6 for LANs, but that's it now... farewell to a game I've loved for 7 long years.

At least I kinda enjoy CS:S so I still have a refuge.



Hopefully new maps like that museum one will continue to come out before the ads come in.

If you want to help out you can make yourself a little bind to a key that says something like "ADMINS DOWNLOAD ADTHEMES.AMXX TO COVER UP IN GAME ADS!" in chat whenever you play on a server. I've been using the plugin and you don't even know the ads are there. They get covered completely. Still doesn't block the ones in the scoreboard or the spectate view but it wipes out the ones on the map walls where they are the most annoying. The plugin works great and you can even add new coordinates to block new ads when (if) valve decides to put them in a new position on the maps. By spamming the message 3 or 4 times I've even gotten a few admins of some servers to get the plugin and use it. Its a slow process but its proving to be a very good start to fighting back.
