What do you think of the new patch for CS?
I think Sierra went to far in trying to make CS a real-life simulation. And thanks to the little 12 year olds jumping everywhere, we know cannot jump for more than 3 times in a row, and also due to Bunny Hopping. The only positives are that no more Hackers and the Bodies on the floor is really cool.

slowed jumping adds more strategy. Now that window that you gotta jump to isn't such a good looking way to go anymore and the front door is an easier way to go. but if you can make it to that window alive you'll be able to gain more advanatages.

I think that the moving accuracy now balances the weapons more. The heavier weapons like rifles and machine guns are harder to manuever while moving, so you gotta stay still. the lighter SMG's though are easier to handle while moving so you can move around a lot more, the trade off is that their weaker.

overall i think the new patch is ok. the most of things they changed in it doesn't really suck, it's just different. But the head hitbox is still too big, which is a very big problem.

Also: Sierra doesn't make counterstrike. Counter-Strike was made by a group of independent people that came together and used their computer to make the mod. But i think Valve has some part in the development now. (or the CS Team sold their souls to Valve.)

To me, CS is NOWHERE near a "real-life" simulation. You leave that stuff to Red Storm and their Tom Clancy games :)

your right it is valve..its the picture of the valve in the guys eye when ur starting half-life.

valve develops the mod. but the game uses half life's engine, which is developed by sierra.

err..theres another topic about this already but what the hey

like i said, its gonna be a f-n fieldday for awpers without the maneuverable jumping ability that was present in earlier versions.

Also, Gooseman is a jackass. For the leader of such a successful mod, you would think he has enough sense not to make the hit boxes all screwed up like they are now. Someone should kick him in the balls. He destroyed the game. Along with all those cheaters.

i can still bunnyhop. i DID install 1.4 but somehow the half-life mod info says i'm using cs 1.3; so i dont bother installing it again. 1.4 lags and such...just made it a bit worse. i stick to 1.3 cause it's no diff. from 1.4 cept for the recoil 'n maps

this is my theory.

let me explain:
i have been a counterstriker for more than 3 years, ever since beta, not version, beta3 was out. then there was b3.1, b4, b4.1 etc. cs has come a LOOOONNGG way from the starting point. Im not sure on this cause back then i didnt care, but i think the original cs started was this guy that goes by gooseman, and he sold cs to these other guys before cs ever got officially release.
ANYWAYS, cs beta has been out for maybe 3 years, and all the 3 years or so of my counterstrike experience, i have noticed one thing. whenever a new patch comes out for cs, they add things to try to make the game more fun. sure, more guns, more maps, hell, we should celebrate whenever a new patch is released. BUT... what i notice is that each time a new patch comes out, the gameplay gets worse. you might have cooler guns, more guns, etc., but the gameplay just gets worse. i remember beta3, gunrunning and everything, although kinda cheating, it was hell of a lot of fun.
ANYWAYS, after about beta 6.5, cs became almost a complete different game. beta7 changed it again. then there came along version1.0, to just kill my happy counterstrike spirit.
the end
