CSS Beta going live next week

[ZERO]

The issue is that valve is updating the game for no reason other than to support macs. In the process of doing this they are breaking all the mods, requiring them to all be reprogrammed to work, introducing new bugs and glitches and making the game less compatible by not supporting older systems that currently work fine.

So if your not playing on a mac the "update" only makes the game worse. The update is totally pointless for anyone that does not use mac. We can literally blame all of the problems with the game from when the beta goes live on mac users.

He's right, they are taking a perfectly good game and fucking it up.... Again...

Valve is a great company on there releases, they may be a bit slow, but they do good. As for every attempt at fixing issues they tend to fuck it up more, as history shows, meaning that this update is probably gonna be no better. Other than also breaking all of the mods for the game, a lot of my friends list is quitting, out of 240 + friends 90% of them are quitting.


That's really sad..

No worries mac users will replace them...

Dont blame the mac users, blame fucking valve for doing a half assed job of this.

We should not even have been effected by this, they should have done the bare minnium to get all of the games working on the mac, NOT changing the engine and fucking with the net code.

If they had used there fucking head and done that instead of redoing everything they'd have saved us and them alot of trouble and all this after the left 4 dead 1 and 2, HL2, Ep1 and ep2 debacles and the not even shakendown UI that took them about a month just to get it to serviceable condition.

and they STILL havent rigged up a way to disable all that useless junk in the ingame UI.


Concerning episode 3 its in developement hell, theres no other reason for the news blackout. hell even the mafia 2 boys who have been working on mafia 2 for 8 years put out more news in total on that than valve on episode 3, so just think of episode 3 as valves duke nukem forever and forget about it.

I'm glad I invested in them rather than valve, just on basic principal.



and the direct hit works on direct hits provided the game registers it as just that, but beyond that the standard one is a far better weapon, all they needed to with it is make it faster and reduce the reload time instead they gave us the direct hit.

its kinda like someone giving you a handgun that only works under certain curcumstances and you have to switch to the other one when its not working, and thats just ingnis and annoying.

tf2 right now feels abit like a swiss army knife puzzle where you constantly have to change tools (IE weapons and classes) to get the job done and I dont like that, theres a reason why I play css because all I need are two weapons a deagle and ak 47 and I dont need to change classes every 5 seconds.

Kavinsky, look out your window, see that bright object in the sky? Its the sun, and you know what? The world revolves around that, not you.

Doesnt affect me much. 90% of my friends list plays L4D/2 and 1.6. I'll just play 1.6 more till mods are fixed.

[mastercheff]

I always have tf2,garrysmod,and hl2 mods to play. I might even buy bc2.
