Would you like a spoon straw with your Counterstrike?

or the counterstrike website ....

Can't believe you don't know what Counterstrike is...

What's that wannabe Counterstrike coming out where when you defuse the bomb....there's an animated motion where you take out a bomb kit, look at the set of three colored wires, calculate which one it is, then cut the according wire? That looks so SWEET!!

Also, when you don't have time to calculate which wire, you can just randomly cut any wire, hoping that it's the right one. IF not, BOOOM!

Anybody know the name of the game? Supposedly gonna be a hit. Forgot the name though...

Cheers,

Bryan

I actually have a dual proc PIII 1U with recent CS server install and anti-cheats installed from a while back. I was thinking to locate this badboy back in StLouis at prior ISP I used to work, but dunno if thats gonna happen. I can see if the Startup Guys I know will let me drop it on their dark fiber if it's turned up.

No guarantees, but if nothing else, I've a box we could use if bandwidth can be found.

If you haven't yet, you guys might also want to check out Day of Defeat mod, it's not too shabby either.

name the time and place.

what do you guys think about camping? especially awm camping (speaking of which, why does everyone say awp?)?

personally, i think it's realistic, and we all know how much MUCH more realistic CS can get. i've started working with the hl sdk and have been trying to tweak out cs to be more realistic (you can't run forever, you definitely can't jump like a monkey, if you get shot in the leg, you limp, etc).

yea, so camping is okay by me. if you play as a team, campers are easy to headshot
one request...if we do setup this server, for gods sake, TURN FF ON!

I think CS should be realistic in a way where it gives the player a chance to use tactics and strategies in real-world scenarios and play out little kid fantasies of being special forces operatives battling it out with terrorists. But if you make it TOO real such as you can't run forever, jump forever, limp, etc., then it will just turn into another day of defeat or firearms. It'll lag the game down. I think the reason CS is so popular is because with the backing of the Quake engine, it's a fast paced shoot em up style first person shooter. If you were to limp or can't jump forever or even run forever for that matter, the game, I think, will lose its fervor. I was a diehard Firearms, DOD fan, but when I look back on CS, the only reason why I like it better is because of the unrealistic realistic environment. There was a petition going around because CS 1.4 is supposed to incorporate limited jumping and if that goes through, I'm going to quickly uninstall counterstrike from my computer. Me and my clan mates as well as many other renowned clans throughout the nation and world that I'm close with agree with the fact that if they disable jumping in CS, it's going to ruin the game as well as its popularity. If you want realism, go play firearms or DoD...but leave CS alone. The original state of CS that it is in right now is what attracted so many people, some 70,000 players all over the world...and if you change it, it's going to lose a bulk of it's players, including me.

Cheers,

Bryan

I'm too sleepy to type anything long, but everything you said is true. I think some jump/run tweaks are needed, but not to the extent that it will drag the game.

Have you ever played Ghost Recon?
