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:

I noticed my PC chugging like an animal @ 4am this morning and my net slowed... fking big update it was too!

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?

^ you need better internets :)

Care to elaborate for us that are perhaps not that indepth? :laugh:

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.

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

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.. >.>

    • Out of curiosity, how do you cover up the inspection hole? Surely it doesn't sit open like that, right? With grime and dirt coming in and oil going out?
    • Hi from Canada, Both of my calipers are starting to fail. My car is a 2005 M35 Stagea ARX and I can't seem to find any parts or any cross reference caliper that would fit my car. Is there a company or a similar caliper that would fit and I could replace the OEM one. Or if anyone knows where I can find a new OEM. Any help is very appreciated. Let me know!
    • Maf is a question mark but TPS  I have set at 0.47, the fact that I’m getting proper voltage range out of it with the key on leads me to believe it’s functioning properly. I’m getting proper voltages on basically everything. I still need to look up voltage ranges for z32 maf and test that 
    • Honestly no not at all, but it’s a very basic tune, it’s stock injectors q45 tps and z32 maf. Other than that it’s a completely stock base map. The file is from nistune and from my understanding if it was tune related I would be able to unplug maf and tps and it would still start even if it was a really shitty start. I have tried starting it with coolant temp, maf, and tps unplugged none of those 3 togethor or individually changes anything
