Supposingly there is a beta that adds achievements etc to CSS.

It almost sounds like they cod'ing cs up

[skeletor]

It will be more like Team Fortress 2 in the way the backend works.

Game play should be more or less the same although the performance and netcode is improved, so shots should register more.

Main problem is the mods probably won't work.

So what does that mean, admin is gonna be fooked?

And there isnt any levelling, just achievements. So will hopefully see some more weapon variation and stuff? Would be nice if they could do something to tweak CS a bit, it is becoming a bit stale in its age. Making AWP fucking inaccurate until you've been stationary for 2 seconds would help. Or you have to get a tripod out a la DoD (is that included in DoD source?)

No levelling up. Weapons etc will likely be the same, some fire rates may differ.

its about time they did a new css... with better graphics... inline with cod ect.

You can guarantee this will happen in line with Half Life 3. I believe there is going to be a Half Life 3?

[skeletor]

Half Life 2 Episode 3 is supposed to be next. Then they will either carry on with Episode 4 or start HL3. I think there were only supposed to be 3 episodes.

I know someone that got the beta. He said that reg is basically perfect now, if you shoot at someone you hit it. Shooting through objects does less damage now, awp headshot through door use to do 260 damage, only now does 105. And the deagle is less accurate. And graphics have been improved.
