[RAA]-=Chi3f=- Posted August 3, 2003 Share Posted August 3, 2003 CS was my absolute favorite game online of all time. I used to play all the time (before cheating was bad), but now I have to say the game is old and out-dated. I hope the Sierra boys realize what a jewel this is. I mean 80% of the world still plays CS while the other 20% is everything else. That's amazing, absolutely amazing! What I don't understand is the next step in the CS process: CZ. The original dev team dropped CZ half way to work on something bigger (007 nightfire, lmao) and I know that they recruited a new team to pick up the slack. This, I feel, will ruin this game's potental. They literally have a gold mine here. By the time CS CZ comes out it will already be outdated. Looking at the statistics, all the dev team would need to do is recreate the original. Beef up the graphics, make new guns and maps, improve cheat technology, and voila another huge success. I say they should make a CS off of the new HL2 engine immediately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HertogJan Posted August 3, 2003 Share Posted August 3, 2003 Well Gooseman has confirmed a lot of months ago he IS working on CS2... And since Valve was already far in the HL2 process back then, CS2 will probably run on the Source engine, TF2 too I think... But I don't kn ow for sure. I don't expect CS2 before late 2004, but still... CS:CZ seems a strange step for me, they should've released it 1 year ago!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thazac Posted August 3, 2003 Share Posted August 3, 2003 Oh yea, CZ is almost as delayed as Duke Forever Anyway, yes, I play some CS and on our own server (81.224.186.141 if you want to try it). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emon Posted August 3, 2003 Share Posted August 3, 2003 I suppose it's good if you like a not-very realistic realistic game that has totally gone down the crapper over the years... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheJackal Posted August 3, 2003 Share Posted August 3, 2003 I still play. But only on servers of which I know people personnaly. Here are the general servers I play on: 66.208.103.88:27015 http://chaoticgroove.com (I'm in the top 20 over there. i was #3 for a while but i was too busy to play for a while now) 66.208.102.156:27015 http://www.sobtribe.net/ (server has been reset and stats lost) 151.196.57.162:27015 http://www.thefriendlyclan.com/ (i might join this clan.... might) If you ever go on this server look for ComradCanuck... which might change to Friendly.Canuck, but we'll see. I jump from server to server depending who is playing on which server. (ColBatman, Tweed, G.I.Jane, Soma, Sam200*AntiHero, etc) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ratmjedi Posted August 5, 2003 Share Posted August 5, 2003 Well my friends got me back into the game. We go to this place called LanWerx were they mostly play CS but other games as well. They have a few servers but there aren't really any cheaters other than just screen hacking. We have our own little clan called |AJ| =American Jihad. Of course I am known as |AJ|R@7mj3di.18. Have you guys ever tried plaing it with Pod Bots? I do cause I really don't play online from my house so it makes for good practice. Espicially since the bots are very smart and precise.

DiRtY $oUtH™ Posted August 5, 2003 Author Share Posted August 5, 2003 Well, I am known as o.S | DiRtY $oUtH just in case any of you run into me. As I said before I play on 56k that connects at 26400 BUT don't think thats to your advantage...I can still own with lag up the ass. I'm in a clan (duh..the tag) called Outlaw Stars but I'm still looking around just in case. I did, however, make the forums used by my clan. Outlaw Stars Clan Outlaw Stars Forums (Made by me ) P.S. - To Ratmjedi, can you clarify your CS name please, I don't know if the period at the end of it is part of the name of the end of the sentence??

I fdeel sorry for you :' Then feel sorry for me, I've never played online, only an cybercafes and on LAN. CS is great, though it's just a bit outdated. I don't know about you, but FPS games with bad graphics make me sick. By the way, ShockV1.89, where'd you get that emoticon? I want it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DiRtY $oUtH™ Posted August 6, 2003 Author Share Posted August 6, 2003 it's just a bit outdated Well, if you think about it, it might be outdated but you have to admit there must be something good about it if its the most played online game on earth...

WolfmanNCSU Posted August 6, 2003 Share Posted August 6, 2003 Oh yeah, I loved CS. Have not played in a long time, but I was pretty good for a while. I was asked to join a clan or two but never did. I was in 2 TFC clans, one with some friend, and one with some clan that was getting started, but that was years ago. I have started to play DoD again, and have been kicking some ass in that. Some people asked me to join there clan, but I did not want to do that. I think tonight I am going to download the new version of Natural Selection and give that a run through. Excellent mod. Lots of fun and requires a lot of team play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GUNNER Posted August 11, 2003 Share Posted August 11, 2003 CS takes up way to much of my time. I'm in a clan called [sU] Slackers United. Our server addy is su.nuclearfallout.net:27015 I play as [sU]Juggernaut The server is in Seattle but we have guys from New York that can ping as low as 90. Most of us are from the west coast. I ping at a 30-40 usually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crow_Nest Posted August 11, 2003 Share Posted August 11, 2003 What's Natural Selection? Its a new half-life mod, i played it before, quite fun. But you might find it frustrating when its your first time playing. It just takes some getting used to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DiRtY $oUtH™ Posted August 13, 2003 Author Share Posted August 13, 2003 It just takes some getting used to. Thats true for almost anything in life but yea I think I will check that out. Is it similar to CS in any way? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XERXES Posted August 14, 2003 Share Posted August 14, 2003 I aint played CS in years. As far as clans recruiting...I was in a few, and one of our rules was...if a player asked to be in your clan, they were automatically declined an opportunity. It was for the best cause that way we could pick out who really had skill, and was not just "showing off" to a clan. Worked out well me thinks.

Well, that may be a good technique but lets say that somebody is an excellent player but is either having a bad day or maybe has a slow connection. What then? You won't notice his "skill". Or let's say its a great player who has skill and happens to be playing at a friends house who has dialup. Then you won't notice his "skill" either.

KBell Posted August 16, 2003 Share Posted August 16, 2003 I would rather recruit my friends than people who were "Skilled" That way i would have alot more fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes a clan's objectives should be to enjoy themselves as opposed to having the best players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lost Welshman Posted August 16, 2003 Share Posted August 16, 2003 HA HA HA HA HA, Counterstrike. That word used to bring me so much joy. I resently installed something from a demo dvd and now I can play it again! Little did I know every other server has cheating admins playing. I read the rules and it said: 'Anyone caught using cheats will be banned.... ...anyone caught camping will be banned.....' And then I died, so decided to fly around the level in spectator view and I noticed one of the admin guys. And he was see through, not completely invisible but very hard to notice, not only that, he wasn't moving *cough*camping*cough* Therefore, I don't play Counter-Strike anymore. I stick to good ol' Unreal Tourny 2003. Because I like et. (That's mean't to be et, not it. They mean the same though. :op because I say so.)
