There is already a thread for this.. Thread merged.

What's the point of changing a 6 year old game, and also the tab function in-game is ruined, it blacks out your screen while pressing it. The casual gamer I guess is more important than the competitive these days

Yeah i know, but the good thing is that with the new engine bullets can go thru walls
like CS1.6

i cant even go into css. all it shows is a loading screen and after that is all black. :S help? dang.

Hopefully the servers will get updated soon. Only 30 servers online atm.

 

[Miiikey]

Uh Awesome

 

[Seph]

Sweet as long as im able to shoot thru walls again im happy for now.

Hmm, this update takes alot on the current servers, ive been on european ones and they all lag even with 10 players on, hope next few weeks will be better. Upgrading the servers and cutting down on slots has to be considered.

good timing for this update since FBG is going down. Now we have a purpose other then stats.
Achievements!

I'm not too impressed with it. Scoreboard sucks, kill cam sucks. And I miss the EGO servers

 

[NinjaWuuzoku]

This is the worst thing I've seen in awhile.
My computer doesn't have good specs so the orange box engine just made everything worse.
And basically every aspect of this new.. update.. is everything I don't want CSS to be. :/

The achievements are cool except you can get the achievements by playing bots so it doesn't mean very much except to yourself. I think the improved hit reg is the biggest improvement. Personally I like this update

I love it.
I think it's the best thing ever to CSS.

Another thing that popped up was the fade to black after you get killed. It quick-cams to the opponent that shoots you in their view..then fade to black, can't watch the rest of the round. Must be a server setting, but man that's annoying.

I love it.

Agreed. The lag provides slower gameplay so that it's on even footing now. Plus, the cool scoreboard and awards etc bring out the joys of victory and the murderous rage from passion.

Grade:
A- (Where's the lazers? Comon guys, you're being paid for a reason)

hmmm, wonder how this is all gonna turn out ! D:

 

[Super_Hooah_Hooah]

These are all just first impressions anyway. Give it a few weeks and we'll have a better idea about it all
