nice i can turn off some of those shit features. Still doesn't address how royally pointless the update was or the ugly UI Graphics.

Only point in this update was to sell more copies of 6 years old game ( tbh its more like 10 years old counter-strike with updated graphics ) to Mac users and PC with awesome achievements and other useless stuff.

FYI, this upgrade was absolutely necessary - server sided wise. The old engine was as leak as a colander. There were dozens of crash exploits, file download exploits, rcon exploits etc etc.

Post subject:  Re: CSS update

fair enough; i have no beef with features that improve the game and engine stability, doesn't mean that they need to bundle in a load of useless shit along with the important and useful server upgrades and fixes.

Post subject:  Re: CSS update

Most stuff people complain about (mainly the stuff with the tick 100 servers gone) are due to the OB engine, which was the necessary stuff. The other features are really just gimmicks and I don't get how people can rant about it that much. It's not like it's changing the metagame or anything - you can simply ignore it.

Some people are just complaining for the sake of complaining.

tbh what gets my chicken is they could be working on a new game engine, but instead add frilly bits and achievements with their time - which makes the majority of players go OMG ACHIEVEMENTS AND FANCY NEW THINGS COOL LETS PLAY MORE, because they are simple and silly all in the face.

Achievements and frilly bits dont make my game improved? how about urs? Thats why it does my nut. Just like when they added achievements in WoW - Oh joy, most people spend 1000's hours just to get all the hard achievements, and mundane ones and funny ones and pointless one, except its all just rehashing old content in a slightly different way meaning that blizzard dont have to make as much content as they should because people enjoy running around doing their 60,000 reputation gain - 45 reputation per half hour.

I want new CS, not CS source rehashed a billion times so i can get a super leet 7000000 kills while defusing the bomb on de_dust with a scout while not scoping and being on 1 hp achievement.

They maybe have got a team working on a new engine or HL:episode 3 or whatever as they don't have that big of teams working on games. I don't get what they really could have changed, if they changed any gameplay aspect of CSS in any way people would still cry.

All these fucking ugly and shit new GUI elements designed for MacTards! or iTards..
Some of the stats tables have been purely updated with like 40px extra height, thats it... fucking slackers at valve should stop wasting time, fuck the ps3 (like they said they would originally) and the mac and make some new fucking games FOR ONCE!

because i like a good front end; and it makes me sad when a once proud company just fucks their shit up for a quick buck, valve have had a taste of the money and now they are hooked.

sorry migu, ps3 isn't an easy console to code for. i just know that valve will waste time trying to port games to it and they will spend so long trying to get them to work and be of a good standard that it has a negative effect on the other consoles. just my opinion though.

Post subject:  Re: CSS update

I know, but maybe things have evolved...Gabe said that Portal 2 on PS3 would be the best version on any console (aka better than on 360, for which it's obviously easier to code for). But then of course, those are the things you say when you get money shoved up your ass. I guess time will tell.

Okay, now back to bashing CSS. :mrgreen:

lol when he announced that he looked so uncomfortable, which to me say's he just got given a dumptruck load of money from sony; im just concerned the other platforms will suffer, maybe not.

So you're saying they should not care about making ports for PS3 that are of good quality so they can focus on [insert console you own here] more?

Congratulations, you are a fanboy.

Post subject:  Re: CSS update

well they already didnt care about the ps3 port of the orange box games because they outsourced most of it, and it was neglected and shit; they should just focus on what they were good at. old saying if it aint broke, dont fix it.

Not really a fanboy, perhaps a pc fanboy, but ive only got 5 games for my xbox. I used to be fanboy of valve till they started fucking around. how can you defend this blatant money whoring shit.

Post subject:  Re: CSS update

I'm not defending Valve, but can't you see how stupid that statement is (investing time in making good prots for all consoles is bad, rather focus on one console so you can make more games).

You're acting as if Valve has 5 employees for all of their games.
