cs owns. It's the greatest game, period. The graphics suck, the engine is almost as old as some ATOT members, but the gameplay (on a proper server with other cool players, like where I play) is far beyojnd any other multiplayer game ever made.

Agreed.

CS is great when you dont have newbs and lammas playing on your sever. You and some friends playing CS on a server together is better than any other game ever. (multiplayer) ...

We are always looking for mature players to add the the 20 or 30 regulars we have! Server is located in Oklahoma City.

I always play schwanz.org. It's a GA Tech server with good hardware and a great pipeline. The only problem is that it has become quite popular, so we get our share of n00bs and cheaters.

I've recently installed some mods for QIII: Urban Terror and True Combat. True Combat is still in the alpha stage, but shows tons of potential. Easily a CS beater once it matures. UBT is ok, but too cartoony for me. There is just no substitute for CT vs. T team play that's found in CS.

CS 1.3 will support the voice comm too so no more need for random keyboard stabs to get the right radio messages out. It will add a new dimension to the game.

I'll have to check that out, Q3 is a MUCH better engine.

At sagz.dynip.com we get newbs and cheaters too, but we admins are pretty harsh on anyone who isnt a regular, so we run most of the jerks off within a round or two. We are also an AWPless server, when an ace with a good ping gets one, its just no fair .

de_torn should definitely be fun
de_survivor was ok, I wasn't too impressed with it.

howd you do that? Linux client?

Yeah, just unzip and untar the linux client to grab the map files, textures, etc. I had *almost* 1.3 with the sounds, maps, textures, etc. The best thing with CS 1.3, is the map specific radio commands! When you guys see this, it'll make co-ordinating CS attacks easier. All maps have specific radio calls, so even if you don't have voice going, the in-game commands will be much more useful.

WOOHOO!!!! My Linux machine may be worth something yet.

 

[LNXman]

LINUX client?!?!? If that is true. . . <tear of joy>. . .now I can get rid off my only windows machine. . . SWEEEEEEEEEET! I just wish I could get into the C.S. website to find out when it will be out. . .
Thanks for the info. . .
