WEll after some sneaky ftp searching, I got 1.3 and 1108 at 5pm.

3 servers, two bw and one jolt clan server were 1.3 ready.

Been playing 1 hour or so solid.

This is great, teh way u can hear radio commands at distance, hear enemy commands, the lip syncing.

little details make it great.

The voice comms are amazingly clear, will be abused on pubbies, but soo much fun.

New maps are all okay, storm is very open, survivor is fast adn torn is well -confusingly good.

New inerno is an improvement, nice changes.

Oh well enjoy your frantic and slow d/ling see you on the servers later :p

I feel like i am ice skating when i move, its wierd, torn is too laggy server ides.

The net code is fucked, voice is excellent, hit boxes appeared to be fixed but are more screwed than ever now :/

Fucked up big time valve.:upyours:

It feels absolutely terrible - even my view seems to be lagging behind my mouse movements - there are some SERIOUS problems there methinks. The voicecomms seems fine, but it ain't gonna be much use if the game itself isn't up to scratch. There's probably some configuration or something that I haven't noticed that will speed things up considerably - I certainly hope so, because otherwise CS is not going to be on my hard drive by the weekend.

Wait until the servers are less busy on the download side and BW moves this might all help but remember the fact is that every major release needs patching to iron out minor problems.

Its been mentioned elsewhere but the non functionality of OpenGL on the ATI is pretty swag considering how long this patch has been in the pipes.

I've not tried CS yet but in TFC the targetting reticle (sp?) is now inaccurate on nearly all the weapons. It wasn't pixel perfect before but its noticably worse since the patch.

Bunnying has been brought down in speed less than I thought it would be, whether this is a good or bad thing prolly depends what mod/position you play.

Oh and the latency seems to have gotten much worse for some people with little lag clusters popping up every now and again. This being on a dedicated server with no ftp demand and plenty of bandwidth. Could just be the net lagging but even with my cable connection, post 1.3 the game felt less smooth.

HLTV looks nice tho.

I do believe the net was a little laggy yesterday.

It all looks very nice!!

Had a look through the new maps this morning. I couldn't find a server that was full.... just myself and another guy checking out the maps. Torn looks the best so far. So many passages and ways to sneak up behind an enemy. But knowing me i was goig round and round in circles.


I have retail CS and only downloaded 10021003 exe file. Didn't get the map fix file or 1.0.8. Do i actually need 1.0.8?

Being able to hear the enemys' radio messages is going to take some getting used to but it really is a nice little touch. The other guy on the server kept sending out messages this morning and i was checking my radar for team mates.

Looking forward to a proper game on the new maps.


:clap: :clap:

A little? It was totally fubar for me.

And I don't think you don't need any more files for retail atm. Except the missing textures fix...
