What do you guys reckon? After playing for so long all these little changes makes it feels odd - pressing tab to look at scores looks too 'busy' now i reckon... havent played it too much yet - cant get into my regular server because I'm guessing Game Arena hasnt updated their servers with the new CSS stuff yet.

Oh and when you press F10 it doesnt close the whole game down straight away anymore - it actually ask you if you want to quit now... damn cant trick n00bz anymore :verymad:

Took me a good 10mins to D/L it i think

I've not actually played it yet - i will have a look over the w/e.

I'll ask my bro what he thinks given he lives on the game haha, he might have more opinion!

will have to check this update

theres a massive sale on steam atm

This has completely ruined the game... It will also ruin competition. I liked it as what it was before. And I'm pretty sure 80-90% of the CS:S community agree.

thought they still used cs 1.5/1.6 for proper comps?

I've put a fair bit of time into it today... its alright but I like it before - more simple. They've made things seems a bit gimmicky - e.g. achievments, MVP, score board looks too busy etc etc...

I jumped on last weekend, why isn't there any gungame servers anymore?

The new Source engine doesn't understand the current metamod plugins, which include sourcemod. Source mod is needed to make these "mods" run. (GG, DM ect.) That's why you can sometimes see Node servers having no time limits with some people having 200+ kills.

It's like trying to run a 64bit program in a 32bit OS.

They use 1.6 for the world leagues. It still doesn't mean Source cannot have its own competitions. Cevo is an online organisation who hosts ladders and comps, in which, they include the game CS: Source. (And a hell of a lot of other games, Including on XBOX360!) Even CEVO's CS:S matches are not able to run because they rely on source mod to keep everything in order.

But yes, 1.6 is still the preferred competition game when choosing between 1.6 and Source.

Surely, just don't kill me for my tripple post... D:

You may or may not know, But australia's version of CSS is now censored along with germany. This means, No blood, and when you kill someone, they kneel down, lay down on their belly with their hands on their head. (Surrendering, Shown in the link below)

The player list overlay (when you press TAB) is now a lot more busy, A lot of players usually hold TAB and play at the same time (or even for a few seconds), now with it soo busy, the playerlist covers most of the screen (ie. You can't really have it on and still be able to see what's going on)

Now all the popup stuff, get an achievement, get your screen blocked, get killed. Kill 4 people, get MVP, and die by the 5th person, (ie. in a competition, the round ends, but there is still 2-3 seconds where you are still able to run around, you CAN still die and loose your gun, and have no money afterwards depending on which team won)

IMHO this update was NOT NEEDED. Yes maybe the update would be good for the server side letting the core being able to run on more than 2 cores, but that's it... Graphics aren't that much different, Useless crap. Counterstrike was made purely for shoot, kill, respawn. THATS IT. It IS a pure FPS. No extras. And valve decides to kill it adding crap which makes the gameplay for other people worse. 1.6 is still going really strong, why? Because they didn't add crappy achievements like they did in Counter Strike: Condition Zero. Player figures show that 1.6 is easily more popular than CS:CZ. Why? The extra crap... People play this game just for its simpleness.

A lot of players have stopped playing because of this update... Valve's to blame.

PS. Some people might not have the censor, I don't know why. But its luck... ;)

Hope that kind of cleared things up. I'm not that good in writing.. >.>

      CD009 RB Conversion

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      Thanks for the info. The only "Issue" I've had with the shifter is I always found the throw between 4th and 6th gear too close. I'm always worried to shift into 4th accidently and sending my motor to the moon. Adam LZ recently came out with a video and stated Serialnine revised their shifters to correct this and will change all the revised parts for 150$. Strangely enough, I contacted Serialnine right after and they denied it and said it's bullshit. I found that strange as he's a distributer. I'll keep this forum post updated on that saga.

      Yep that is correct. It allows you to adjust the short throw range from what I can tell

      R32 GTST - 600KW+ RB28/CD009 Build

      Car has been running great, I've put about 300km's of break in time on it. First thing that stands out with properly sealing rings is no more noticeable crankcase smell coming out of my catch can. This may seem insignificant, but the constant smell while driving around was infuriating. It's also nice to see my oil level remain stable. Two new issues have developed that I only noticed this weekend though. There's a very noticeable driveline vibration past 100kmh. I only noticed it now as I've been babying it under 100kmh in the backroads. This comes as no surprise as I'm running a one-piece shaft, and I paid zero attention to my driveshaft angle when I put everything back in. I also have a fair bit of voltage drop on hot starts. The starter audibly is forcing. No issues on cold start though. I must not have removed all the paint under my main block ground during assembly. I'll try and take care of both those issues this week once the kids are asleep.  I also received all the parts I was missing for my direct port setup. I will hopefully have pictures of that up soon. I'm hoping to get back on the dyno the week of June 30th as I'll be on vacation. I'm confident I should be able to make north of 500rwkw on pump gas and WMI. I'll go back again later this summer with E98, but I want to confirm my ethanol content sensor is working properly first. I've never seen it read anything but 11%. This makes sense for our 10% ethanol content pump gas here, but I would expect the occasional movement between fill ups.

      The Evolution Of "night Fury"

      75% complete. Will now need to get a new axle with 5x114.3 hubs and then figure out how to customize some mudguards for it once the wheels are on.

      Trailer prep is underway... Lined up the wheel to get a rough indication of how it would sit Then removed all the bits (as far as possible) and gave the frame a light sand and quick lick of paint   Then added some carpet
