Im not so exited for this "new" css...all they are doing is adding achievements. if i want achivements points i would just play xbox360. How ever, even tho it not mention there, i hope they fix all the little bugs like the nade "trowing" glitch.

me too! that glitch and the "crouch jump" glitch. nothing pisses me off more, than shooting someone in the air in the chest but only doing 85 dmg, because he was crouched when jumping. i aimed above the knees, gah.

I support the update, It's being ported to the Orange Box and the OB handles Multi Core systems a lot better then the source engine CS:S uses.

There a lot of little bugs that they could fix, but right now they are just trying to get everything the same as it currently is in the beta. Then they will iron out all the bugs etc etc.

If they do this right it could really bring many people back to playing CS:S, but if they do it wrong it will crash and lose many, many players.

Right now from what I can tell on the forums is just there are so many people bitching and complaining about little things in a BETA, that's what a BETA is for, to fix and change and get everything correct.

But w/e there are too many dumb people out there to really take the steam forums seriously
