its groovy, i still have to delete my HUGE Sierra folder with tons of cs stuff, but im for sure saving the screenshotz

i love the new guns and the shield is sometimes bs when im trying to get around it..
but its easier to get around :)
maybe its just me but i LIKE IT :mad:
 
haha, i haven't downloaded the 1.6 yet, but i assume it's good... most of the reviews i heard from players that played it was good.
 
eh....I'm just prejudiced against it :O lol partiallly because they changed all the guns/sounds and because when you're behind the shield...you basically invincible....that is if u know how to use it :trouble: but I think I'll stick with 1.5 until the servers I play upgrade :irked:

they changed all the guns? so no colt, ak, deagle, etc..?
and what you mean you can be invincible?! can't you still shoot through the sides or from behind?! :rolleyes:
 
I do:)
Thanks to tainted*:)
But ummm....
How do you play?
I still don't get the controls.
And what's the point of the missions?
Do you get to shoot somebody sometime?
I also noticed that it lags alot (nito cursed it:))
So many questions I know, but I'm a noob to this game, so if anybody could help me out, I'd be very glad:)
And what's the best map?

:O was too exhausted from a week @ school to think clearly :O ok what i meant was that the gun names were all changed (a Maverik M4A1 and a CV-47 in place of the Colt M4A1 and AK47) but...just found i could change that with a little editing (check it out at http://www.cscentral.com/) so im going to be dling and playing 1.6 as soon as i get my hw done :irked:

btw for the shield i was refering to the people shooting at you cant kill you from the front; you can still get shot at from the sides and back ;)

To complete the map's objectives:
fy maps:
*you have to eliminate all members of the opposing team
de maps:
*terrorists (t's) have to successfully bomb the target or eliminate all
*counter-terrorists (ct's) ct's have to eliminate all t's or make sure the bombsites arent blown up by the end of the round
as maps:
*ct's have to escort the VIP to safety
*t's have to make sure the VIP doesnt get to the rescue zone by eliminating all ct's
cs maps:
*ct's have to eliminate all t's or rescue all hostages
*t's have to eliminate ct's and/or make sure hostages aren't rescued by the end of the round
(geez that was a lot of eliminates i used in a row!)

therefore...yes, you do have to shoot at people...and a lot of times :p ;)

totally up to you...i personally like fy_iceworld :rolleyes: de_dust de_dust2 cs_militia de_aztec :D hope you enjoy the game
 
UNAM, if you have 56k and a computer 1year+ older it will lag...Heh. I just need to buy the game now, as I have my ADSL connection.
 
Counter-Strike is a fun,but a pretty hard game.
I'm actually getting the hang of it.
Nitto is getting really boring when you have Counter-Strike.

I have Dsl and a relatively new computer, but it still lags.

That's weird...:odd: Maybe it's the server then?

hmm...possibly you're video card? or RAM? either those or when you are searching for servers, make sure to search for connections of 100 ping or less then your ping should drop, making the game less laggy
 
100 ping?whats that?and i rearly go play nitto now that counter strike is here.........yeah tainted you are right its fun but its hard.....im getting good at it a lil bit though im always in the coounter terrerist they have shields thats why........
 
Oh OK thanks for the tip blitz.:)
Haven't tried it yet, but maybe it will help.
It makes difficult to play when the game freezes every ten seconds.
 
do you guys play 1.6 or 1.5... cuz if you guys play 1.6, it's kind of fake...the stuff aren't as nice as 1.5.. although the graphics are way better. Anyway, if you train with 1.6, and then play 1.5 at someone elses house, it's going to be harder and different. When i tried 1.6, it seemed so fake. Just my opinion :)
 
ooh, yeah steam is 1.6 :p
it's nicely made, but personally i think 1.5 is better. i suggest you go and buy the cd and play it, it's more realistic. :D

Personally I play 1.6 but that's only because the servers I played on switched :irked: 1.6 is so different than 1.5 :mad: the whole thing looks so much......worse you could say...ok yeah fake xP but you get used to it eventually..although I feel that 1.5 was better. :O nonetheless, with 1.6 you can find servers to play on with only like 20 latency :D so I just stuck with 1.6 (besides the Galil, Famas, Riot Shields are pretty cool...;) )
