WHat do you think of CS S

I THINK ITS AWESOME!!!! ITS SO FUN MAN!
 
I dont like the feel of it at the mo :/

seems a tiny bit too fast, ie models move very fast and tempo of the game.

also the guns accuracy etc...

it seems that there is no need to 2 shot burst with a colt anymor,e seems easier and more accurate to just spray...

and too easy to get a headshot by mistake

seems just as easy to kill sumone with the galil as it does the colt, and people die too easily, 2 shots and their dead...

part from that, its great :D
 
even though it seems a tad bit loose as far as movement goes, everything else it absolutely kick ass!
 
Once i got it to work i was very impressed, had to sort out my refresh rate, and acctually connect to a server but once i did WOW. I think its alot better than 1.6/1.5, not just because of the graphics, but the all round feel of the guns and damage etc, really fun. It really is the best multiplayer game ive played and i was surprised how good it was, also even tho i bought my machine a year ago i still play super smooth with everything on full 1024, which is great considering how good it looks.
 
I cant see my bullets. I hate that. I cant see where they are going as I shoot, so I cant control my spray. Its so ****ed, I need to SEE them! It is otherwise sweeeet.
 
I luv it, not playing it currently (kingthebadger allowed me to play on his cyber account for 24hrs), but what I have played of it, I love... I would buy the CZ just to play if it werent frickin' 30 bucks... I guess I can wait for HL2.
 
I havent had a chance to play. Is the game that much faster? If it is, awesome. I think 1.6 is dreadfully slow.

First of all, it's not bullets you can see. The "bullet" you see are tracers that are put in the magazine every few rounds. 2nd, you can tell from the bullet impact where the shots land, so what's the problem?
 
It was fun untill it had to f*ck up again! I JUST WENT INTO THE GARAGE AND BUSTED SOME SH*T! OMG FRRFRFFRFARGERGAEETHTHYY :flame:

I feel better now
 
I'm updating it now. Not sure if it's going to work or not :p
 
Fantastic except for the memory dump crash...

I'm running on high at 1240x1024 and it's running sweet at 30-50fps,
thats on 2000XP, XFX5900XT, 768MB PC2100.

That said I'm gonna drop the detail a littlle just to keep it steady at 40-50fps

(also been having a few concerns over grenade bounce but that might be just me:) )
 
Arrrgggghhhh

That's uncalled for and you know it.

Besides it's a beta, the whole point of releasing it to Cybercafes and ATI/CZ owners was to see how the new hl2 engine would be handled on different configurations.
 
Its ****ing Shiteeeeeeee Hes Vermin Hes ****ing Verrrrrmiiiiinnnn
 
also not very good cause i have waited 3 weeks for this and then this shit happens WHYYY MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE :flame:
 
Well it's fun! Alot of fun!

Then i noticed it's buggy and VERY laggy :(

But I think theres going to be an update to those bugs soon
 
Short overview--

Movement is fine. Feels exactly like CS

Nice mouse movement - no addition of mouse fix commands.

Shooting system/Accuracy of guns is sort of random.

Graphics are really good.

Great support for my card (geforce ti4200) on which i get an average of 70FPS with a 3000+ AMD

Great physics - exception with the lack of barrels (due to not being able to jump on them)

No boosting. May be implemented later on i hear from cliffe.
Lovely faded and smooth console/option menus

If they fix the accuracy of the guns or whatever removes the sort of randomness it'll be a great game
 
I couldnt find any servers to play last night. I tried for 2 hours but the only server I actually made a connection with was so laggy it was unplayable. I did get a chance to play around a bit and I must say I'm very impressed.

The physics - I got killed a number of times by flying barrels after the bomb exploded. Shooting a bottle, watching it break in half and both pieces rolling in slightly different directions

The effects- the dust kicking up when you shoot the ground, the debris from the walls, gernade effects are great

The sound effects - materials had different sounds, explosions sound great, guns sound great
 
so far not so good I'm afraid.

Its not a bad start but the netcode needs some serious work. The aiming is totally random, and the skill factor has been replaced by the who's got the best net connection factor.

Loads of graphical annomalies and artifacts. Including when I pull a smoke grenade the whole screen is covered by a single triangle.

Guns I think sound pritty ropey.

But overall the game is not playably fun. It's like a point were our servers on CZ were useless, I used to empty clips into peoples back and not hit them. On the beta I emptied a mp5 into a guys back point blank (as in I ran up to him until it stopped me) and he turned and shot me on the reload. I'd hit him a grand total of 3 times.

As first impressions go its not been the best by far. Hopefully Valve will relase an improved netcode soonish which will improve the game and allow them to focus on other bugs.
 
I like it alot, hitboxes seem very accurate, weapons feel powerfull too.

Only downside is the AWP is stronger then EVER! We need sway for the sniper rifles imo. They are wayyy to unbalanced.
 
It has lost the feel that CS has...

In CS 1.6 I can rush under the bridge in dust and with an ak kill retards camping up on the sniper nest...but in Source...it's..just different.

It's an awesome game...but.....it's frustrating. Maybe I need to play it more.

Come on....

Do you even play 1.6?

And for how long?
 
The Para OWNS now though, its like a high power assault rifle with insane clips and rate of fire. The AWP is a bit unbalanced, but most awpers aren't that smart and you can scout them. (Which is fun). The weapons feel more random, but having recently actually fired an automatic weapon IRL, it feels more realistic. You can still aim with autos, just only the first couple will hit. All in all, once they hammer ou the bugs I bet it will be a great game. (Give us aztec!)
 
Thus far I think its quite weak.

The new models for the players and weapons are excellent, the graphics are good but not as good as I was expecting but are still quite acceptable. The physics are very weak. I've shot a giant barrel with a glock and it flys across the room. (ive shot a glock and at a barrel in real life so I have a general idea of what SHOULD happen) You can shoot glass bottles and plastic bottles and they just fly around as opposed to breaking. Their are alot of clipping issues, especially with barrels. Overall I was expecting a company like Valve to have delivered something a little more refined then this.You can respond by saying its a beta, but this is valve... I mean really. And considering the overall state of cs source, I find a September release date less and less likely.
All in all, my little nitpicks with the game sure as hell arent gonna prevent it from taking over most of the free time in my life so I guess I can't complain.
 
Well, I was ejoying it last night. Then I went to sleep for a bit and everything is bunged up.......lame
 
There are obvious bugs in the game, but chalk that up to BETA. Overall I'm very impressed, and I was playing with no AA and Trilinear AF, when I get home I'm cranking those up a bit because I wasn't too impressed with the graphics.

I wish we could use the physics more, for something useful. The barrels provide cover for like 1 or 2 bullets, then go flying away like a balloon, not very realistic. All the other physics objects are just eye candy, I want to pick up a brick and drop it on someone's head. Or throw a rock to distract someone. CSS is kind of a weird CS 1.6, with all these new toys laying all over that don't really do anything. Except bring down my fps of course.
 
Someone tell me how to fix the bug where cs:s just crashes cause its not my graphics card
 
I have loved it, the graphics are great, but some of the bugs make it really annoying. Today I was doing really great and the game froze, then let me move around and then sent me back to where it froze, it was really wierd, so I had to reconnect. But once all that gets sorted out I will love it even more! :D
