damn i just started getting used to source

SAme here..Shit

These need to go. Except maybe the AK thing - haven't played on a decent server yet.

Why the hell is he wearing a bicycle helmet in that picture!?

Also does this mean the source we know is coming to an end soon ? I mean I noticed the Source Beta thing on steams site, but didn't know if it meant it was just another game to play "like Day of Defeat Source" or whether it was replacing the one we play. I hope it doesn't because that would be bullshit! If it is something gay I probably won't play anymore.

That's what I said when 1.4 became 1.5, 1.5 became 1.6, and css was released (I refuse to acknowledge the existence of cz). Change is inevitable, and this time I fully welcome it :)

There going to ruin this F*CKING game...

i've been hoping for some updates, so i welcome it. and since spyda's unofficial review is mostly good, i'd say it seems like this is a good thing.

Same exact thing here buddy!I started in 1.3 and hated the thought of every update, until I just...liked it lol. I used to LOVE CZ, just runnin around with a deag and a scout no matter what map it was. I got CSS when it first came out, but just played CZ until about 3 months ago when I got a comp good enough to run CSS :) Now i'm FINALLY starting to get used to it. I'm willing to see the change. It's just the first day so it's not gonna be changed any time soon I wouldn't think. They've got a lot of bugs to fix.

The beta will eventually replace the actual game and everything will carry on like normal. Everything so far that I have seen has been a better change than what was before. A few changes need tweaks to improve on what they have. I can see the kill cam thing working out because it will be for pubs and Valve wants the pubbers to not get frustrated with what just happened to them and possible learn new tricks instead of "wtf where was he?/how did he bank the nade off the wall to get there?" I'll love it because I get a lot of 1-2 bullet kills and if you get 3 in a row and that 3rd guy sees 3 seconds before he gets killed and specs me 1 shotting the 2 in front of him then snapping to him he'll scream aimbot and we can all laugh. Everyone gets those shots that make you think if you just did that, then they will have to watch it so you'll get that warm feeling knowing they get to watch their own death getting shot in the face across the map running sideways while aiming at someone else.

Lol, the kill cam does sound pretty sweet.

can we get some videos from all of you by chance? Would love some fraps videos to see whats up.

This-- this would be awesome. Esp. of spyda & aimbot.

I think this will really help the game out, especially the achive system. Untll this update it was the Same old CSS rush over and over again.. Now we have something to work towards besides growing e-peen, bomb defuses and yelling AFRICAN AMERICAN all day.

Oh gay.. I just found out what the kill cam actually is, it's just like TF2 after you die and shows the person who killed you. That is F*CKING retarded, I thought if they put it in that it would actually be useful instead of some retarded pos..

AK is back to normal, but notice the lack of him killing while running sideways and check out the scoreboard, forgot to mention that earlier. Kinda hope that someone comes out with a smaller version of it in a GUI because I don't need it that dark blocking my screen because I hold tab probably half the round even though I don't look at the scores.

Wow the kill cam is F*CKING gay.

ah yes, the time has come where we must say all over again, "Those were the good ole days."


i was thinking the killcam would by like in CoD. Shows you the last 3 seconds of your life from your killers POV. The killcam from TF2 is shit, rather annoying, and serves up purpose other than frustrating the player.

been playing alot of TF2 lately since my steam is fucked up (most half my games are 'unavailable' despite a fresh install and following all the troubleshooting steps steam gave me. some odd reason TF2 is the only one that works).

i could give two shits about how this effects the gameplay, what im interested in, is n00bfest going to keep the source server or is it going to be phased out like CZ was?

Current Source will be replaced by this Source Beta - there will be no phasing out. A forced upgrade.

so its going to be a content patch and not an entirely new game....ok gotcha

would suck if i had to buy another version...again

I noticed avatars. So this is one of those games where you have to use your steam name? GAY. I like being able to change my name and such via options menu.

You can still do that. Even in games where it tries to force your STEAM friends name as you in-game name just type setinfo name "name" and you have a new name.

Also, almost every game shows avatars at 1024 res or higher, CSS is one of the few that doesn't. Even 1.6 does..
