Do we have any counterstrike fans here? well the beta version has been released and it looks outstanding. below are some pictures of comparison with 1.6
Character Skins
Rifles
========================================
for all gun comparisons go to http://www.csnation.net and click on the CSSource link.
the New version of de_dust looks awesome.
i really want to get but cant for two reasons...
1.needs a 2.6 ghz computer minimum (if ur gonna play with any graphical satisfaction) i only have 1 ghz
2. Need a copy of Condition Zero dont have
so i've decided to buy a new computer
with CZ
hopefullly i will get it soon so i can play this game
Has anybody got it? your views??

i played it a couple of times, pretty good though not a massive improvement over the orginal, could be because there is only 1 map so far though.
Posted by mixin
It is just the same game still, so i'm really not getting excited at all
Posted by 50Cent
but it does have a whole new game engine. and the gameplay has been significantly improved (as i have read from reviews) like being able to interact with the surroundings (i.e. build barracades with tables or boxes so u can hear the opposition as they try to get thru!. And there are now 64 player servers. which will be really good once they get sum larger maps done.

Do you guys think that a 1.5 ghz comp with 768mb ddr memory and Radeon 7500 (32mb) graphics card will do?
[ This Message was edited by: JohnN4 on 2004-08-21 16:38 ]
Posted by buckle247
yeah once there are some new original maps, rather than remakes such as de_dust it will be much better. Also the interactive surroundings are cool, being able to shoot barrels, knock over car tyres etc.
I am guessing if it needs a 2ghz processor, it will need a lot more than 32mb graphic card.

might just work on my home comp then, running 1.5ghz, 256mb ram, and i think i have directx 9, though it is only a 64mb card.
Posted by 50Cent
have you got Condition Zero?

Thats more or less what i have, cept i have 512 ram...
lags to buggery even on the lowest resolution
Posted by buckle247
not yet, but theres not much point if it is going to be laggy, to play it at my local game centre
Posted by 50Cent
its not really worth playing if it lags a lot. with a 2.4ghz it works okay on medium settings but cant handle high very well. IMO its only worth playing on a 3 ghz computer cos u can put it on max settings - so u can enjoy the scenery whilst ur waiting to re-spawn
(assuming u have a good graphics card)

well, just had a quick mess about..

Posted by 50Cent
hehe, who says u have to spray ur logo when u can use good old fashioned bullets
i cant wait to play this !!!!
Posted by mixin
when you throw your weapons down aswell, the animation is rather dodgy
Posted by 50Cent
yeah, sumtimes it bouces a little too high, or in the wrong direction
but i like how it will slide down a hill or get blown away by a HE grenade
Posted by mixin
wonder what'll happen if i shoot it?
/me goes to test
Posted by mixin
Bullet marks from me shooting gun away...
where gun ended up
Posted by 50Cent
cool.... they dissapear the next round right?
Posted by mixin
most prob yeah... i've only been messing around on lan to see the whole shootings things up engine thing
Posted by 50Cent
i see. do you know if they have been able to stop sky walking??
Posted by buckle247
has anyone noticed on the remale of the de_dust map, if you go into free camera mode (after other players have died) there is like another world just outside the map. Hard to explain but it is simler to the dust map, but it is not part of it, it you fly high in the air you will be able to see it, then get in close to it.
Posted by 50Cent
yeah, they had those in 1.6 if u get to certain places on the map you can see them... just scenery really.
Posted by buckle247
no riot shield either in source
, that was a laugh in 1.6 having a straight gun battle using one of thouse
Posted by 50Cent
i'm glad to see it go.. lame how u could knife thru them. i'd rather use my team mates as shields
Posted by mixin
you cant destroy half empty bottles of fanta
Posted by 50Cent
i saw a video of some guy smashing bottles using his knife..hours of endless fun

or a X600 pro (256) cheapest i found was £103
Edit- sorted i got a X600
Cheers

Cheers

Posted by 50Cent
any1 use scripts?
Posted by 50Cent
i found out u can use the "use last weapon" button just as effectively.
My clan needs a server but we aint got no money being students
any1 got one they could dedicate to my clan? They would aslo be a honarary member of course.
Oh yeah, my clan owns btw

Posted by mixin
I use mousewheel up as "lastinv" works a treat for fast weapon switching
