Counter-Strike: Source

[Taurus]

Hey everyone, just wondered does anyone play CS:S online? If you do just post your name and maybe we can get some games in. My online name is equiNox°Taurus.

Also I would like to discuss CS:S in this thread and find out everyone's opinions on the game.

I used to, but every server I want to go on makes me download 50 MP3s and the framerate crashes for some reason whenever I fire a gun.

Is the CS community has bad as it's made out to be?

I play. My name is Ice, and my xfire name is Ghost908.

[Mongoose]

Teh old.

I know, I was just asking a question. Is the CS community really like that?

[Alexanderofmacedon]

Halo! Halo! Halo! Halo!

[Mongoose]

Is it just me, or does everyone here instantly get ADD everytime some one brings up an FPS game?

Meh, I used to play CS a long, long time ago. Got over it when I realized there are other, better MP games.

I just can't stomach Steam. The first weekend I had HL2, they had server trouble and it locked me out of even the single player for almost the entire weekend. That pretty much did it for me- I can't stomach such draconian and invasive copy protection, which is too bad since SiN:episodes looks good but is only being released over steam, afaik.

It's worse. No profanity or long tirades in that strip.

Not sure why people complain about steam. I love the ability to buy and maintain my games online. Isn't this what people have been complaining about for years now? Why waste gas, physical space, and paper when games are essentially electronic transactions.

And, of course, updates and bug fixes are updated automatically with steam.

It might have been slow the first weekend. But it's fine now. 4-500k/s downloads even during busy periods (new updates, etc).

PS Having said that, I still don't like Valve. They need to add some sort of player rating/feedback mechanism to control rampant immaturity, racism, rudeness, camping, etc. There's always some guy spewing racial slurs who insists on hiding in some box at the far end of the map. Would be a fun game if not for the handful of atrocious people who ruin it for everyene else.

I got CS: Source installed, but I play CoD2 online with the MP mode "Search and Destroy". Pretty much like CS, so I won`t try CS for some time..

I like being able to buy and update games online too. What I don't like is being forced to log onto their service and ask permission every time I want to play even single-player and having "updates" and other garbage shoveled onto my computer without giving me any sayso.

Stardock Central > Steam

Sorry if too far off-topic, Steam is just a peeve of mine.

[BDC]

I like Steam. But meh. CDs are fun and all but I have piles of the buggers.

Shame Steam isn't a sort of universal game-delivery device. So I will probably end up with half-a-dozen clones installed eventually to get games from different companies.

There’s nothing more trilling then placing a perfectly aimed headshot to a terrorist who is 30meters away armed with an AK and you with a small but powerful Deagle.

I still play the good old 1.6 sometimes.
Source is nice to look at, but I’m an old fashioned kind of guy.

And stop bad talking steam pls it’s a nice little program!
True, it still needs a lot of work but have trust in the Valve Team.

A happy steam user.

Copy protection that gives pirates a better game than buyers is a big no-no in my book...

[Taurus]

I've had Steam for a while now and never had any problems with it. In fact I love Steam.

[ShadesPanther]

Steam is ok, but sometimes it is really annoying with downloads and the annoying steam news when loading up a game

[tibilicus]

I play Counter striek source Taurus.

Oh wait were in the same clan for it. ~:D

I cant help wondering what would happen to my online bought games when steam declared itself bankrupt.

Thnx for the money’s mates now **** of?

That's why Steam is better than some of the CD copy protection around...

But copy protection is going to screw everyone over in a couple of decades anyway, Steam or not. How does anyone access anything if the original companies are long gone and any hardware needed to allow access are obsolete and gone. Not just music, films and games, but scientific articles as well.

A few years ago I was a very happy clanleader of my own cs clan.
As years past by I kind off grew out of the clan concept.

But recently once again the itches of clan membership began to rise.

So is anybody here willing to create a “4 fun” cs clan with me?
I think the name would be pretty obvious “The Org” this is however disputable.

Pm me!

My 2 best friends play CS:S all the time. They're really good, but they say they play on some Warcraft III servers, which allow them to play as "undead" and stuff. Sounds like they mix the games on MP. It sounds cool. I'll try and find there names out for you. They are in some really good clan.

They're kind of mean and they'll be a d**k to all of you...sorry, but that's who they are...

[Upxl]

Nah thnx for the trouble but I’m a clan creator not joiner.
Besides it’s the good old 1.6 I’m talking about.
Tnx anyway though.
