Hey guys, basic pole here for all u counter-strike players out there.
As many of you know steam had a counter-strike update today and for the most part it was a good update(unnesessary but good), but they made the damn crosshires bigger and i can't hit anything now. ITs really pissing me off cause out of the millions of complants about steams friends never working or steams laggy hit boxes they change the one thing they didn't need to.

Anyhow tell me what u think about the geniuses at steams latest update

ya i know i could mod my own crosshires but im lazy!!!
 
well u will and when u do u shall see what i am talking about.
GUYS u dont hve to post but at least vote.
 
I just hate the crosshairs..How do i make it smaller?
 
ive tried a bunch of different things but they didn't work.
but i know one way.............BITCH UNTIL VALVE COMES TO THIER DAMN SENSES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I knew it..its one of their ways that they think they can balance out the game.....

F*kin Hell... the new crosshair is just so gay.. the skull is lame also... valve is going nuts...
 
cl_dynamiccrosshair 0.

There will soon be an override for the crap headshot icon.

Killing off AWP whoring is the best thing to happen to the game since Valve took it under their wing.

I've been playing with cl_dynamiccrosshair 0 for a very long time now, putting it on doesn't change the crosshairs back to there old size.
 
Where's the "love everything but the headshot icon" option?? >.< The awp getting fixed after 5 years is awesome. So many people complaining about it though. The crosshairs I actually do better with the new ones so no complaints there. The headshot icon is just lame though.
 
fixing the awp quickswtich is like taking the railgun out of q3, its been there since the beginning and it should stay that way. Awpers that arn't cpl arn't that hard to kill anyway, you just wait them out or mp5 rush and if they are cpl they will get you awp or no awp.
 
What is the HS sprite anyway? I can't go see for myself because CS is unavailible.
 
Did they change the size of the crosshair? I thought that they only changed it to be non specular :O But anyways, what's up with the awp, I have not tested it after the patch? Also the new icon for HS is crap. Why change something the whole community is fancying already? And what comes to the new buy menu? I have always used that original and old (without any images), that's far more better than anything new imo.
 
There is now a two-second delay after you pull out a sniper rifle before you can scope it - all they need is an animation showing you pulling it up to your eye. The new buy system is F1 for autobuy (chooses best weps what you can afford) and F2 (rebuys previous equipment).
 
I already got the sprite replacements for both the headshot icon and crosshair..

http://www.tkwired.com/ for anyone who wants it

And I personally don't agree with the AWP quickswitch "fix."

The cross hair fix doesnt work for me..Prolly cuz im using 1600x1200 res
:angry:
 
BtW shuzer..do i have to make a folder for the 640hud7.spr? or just toss it in the Sprites folder?
 
Anyone who plays competitive CS will tell you that the quickswitch/quickzoom change has ruined a lot of strats.
 
why isnt there an option for "love everything"?
 
cause if i put love everything that would imply that you love steam and NOOOOOOOOOOOO ONE loves steam. srry i forgot could an admin add "love everything" please

If you have the \cstrike\sprites\ folder, then toss it in.. if not, don't
Anyhow, reportedly the crosshair doesn't work for everyone, works for me though

DOH!!! Doesnt work for me!! :flame:
 
My personal opinion is:

1) The new crosshairs are OK. They look a little odd to start with, but they're not better/worse, just different.

2) The new headshot icon is really daft.

3) Steam is pretty good technology, but they're misusing it. They need to pre-load updates before release, in the same way they pre-loaded CZ. Load the content into the *.gcfs, but don't activate it. That way, the load is nice and spread out, and on release day, the new update is just there, no catastrophic failure.
