What are your thoughts on the new update coming to css? I tried it out for a bit but i totally felt out of league. maybe it was just that day.... Everything is fast. I dont really care about achievements, they dont mean shit to me. I play css for fun. I think they are messing with the controls. css been the most stable online shooting games of all time, and they might lose me cos of this update.

It does seem more fast paced.. Also, head shots seem super easy...

I don't like it very much, for the reasons you and mossy stated.

Hopefully, just like 1.6 they won't drop Source support.

I enjoy it a lot.

It's not a new game, it's the same. it's an update, not a brand-spankin new game.

Oh god.... guess that's why its Counter-Strike: Source Beta on the mailing list...

but then, won't it kind of... not be :Source?

It's still using the Source enigne, just an updated version. There's not much gameplay difference. It's mostly engine and GUI updates

I was hoping to see it look as pretty as L4D2, but I was disappointed. Its a little better (the bomb animation), but thats about it.

Hows the bomb animation better?

not sure...

to my knowledge they slowed the AK fire rate aswell.

and less recoil

Wow that's alot better.

Still looks like CS:S too.

Yeah, I'm actually really disappointed that the beta doesnt look as good as L4D2. Why change the engine if you're not going to improve the shit out of the graphics?

Well improving might mean making them better? I for one would not want that to happen, as scores of other players will agree with me. I am guessing they want to keep all the players that they have because some people cannot run the game properly with higher graphics. The gameplay is good, and its still being enjoyed by thousands of people so no point in improving graphics. maybe gameplay.
