I've been playing since Beta 1 and I can tell you that it's better to know the maps and put yourself in an advantegous position so you don't even have to worry that much about if you're dead-on headshot with your first bullet.
I'm sure any CS fans already know about how the Steam servers got shut down and the beta rescheduled, but it's managed to get around and I can say with some confidence that this is one of the most major CS updates in a long time. The riot shield adds a whole dimension to the tactics and flow of the match, a change the likes of hasn't been seen since the addition of de_maps to CS. The new weapons are both inexpensive and fairly effective, so we're likely to see a shift in weapon balance as well. And the glock is now a bit more powerful! |

What's the frickin' point of having a riot shield when your enemies are running around with assault rifles like AK-47? I can already hear the CTs say their last words: "CALM DOWN, MEANIEZ!! YOU DON'T STAND CHANCE! WE'VE GOT TEH RIOT SIEHLDS!!^1" _________________

In the preview video the shoot at the shield with an AK and the guy's health remains constant... _________________ "Ever forward, my darling wind." -Master Yuppa

A couple patches ago, Valve messed with the hit boxes on CS. The result being able to get a head shot with actually hitting the head.
Open up Half-Life model viewer and view one of the player models with hit boxes on. You will see what I mean.
Why did valve do this? Make it easier for noobs. Many vets were pissed at the time when this happened as well. |

I think luna should get a "has a wife, and does that whole living thing" bonus, cause see, hes married, and flats.... on the other side of the spectrum.
So uh, go lunatique.
even though I don't support the playing of counterstrike in any form or fashion. ut2k3 is much better... |
