CS 1.4 Info Page

Posted by Blitz at 18:40 18/1/2002.

One of the 1.4 beta testers has set up an info page regarding his experience when beta testing the upcoming release. I'm not sure he's allowed to do this but that's not for us to worry about...he talks about new features, fixes, maps. It's mainly compiled of screenshots so don't expect too much info, other than what you can see in the pics:

CS 1.4? CS 1.4?

"Death - When you're killed you are shot out of your body in time to see your own death and follow the enemy who killed you.
Bomb
Ts planting the bomb cant move.
"Player picked up the bomb" has been added.
A dropped bomb flashes red on the radar (great addition).
Bodies - No longer will bodies disappear...just lie and rot till the end of the round"

He also mentions things like hostage fixes, scoreboard colour changes (to show bomb carrier etc), and the fact that you slow down when jumping. I'm not sure how long it'll be up, but it's worth checking out anyway.

	b33p 20:10 18/1/2002	I think the decision to make CS jumping so that u fatigue over a few jumps is not going to be a welcome addition. I think jumping in CS has been so inter-weaven into the gameplay since the first beta of CS it wont be possible for older gamers to adapt. If anything this option should be server-side so we have an option whether to use it or not. [ Comment: Report \| IP: Logged ]

	Mintman 22:57 18/1/2002	Not being able to move whilst planting, hmmmm. Me no likes that one, no jump plant at bs A on Dust, or the jump on dust 2 or the plant behind the box, I could go on. I don't want that in the final beta :0p [ Comment: Report \| IP: Logged ]
	Vetinari 23:01 18/1/2002	Not keen on many of those changes, nice to see the hitboxes are nearly fully fixed(supposedly)...but... not moving with bomb? what about all the fun from placing it in a difficult place? hard to keep accurate whilst strafing/moving? So as soon as I get used to that being different, it's changed back? the jumping thing is just mank... Vet [ Comment: Report \| IP: Logged ]

	VespR 02:36 19/1/2002	Personally I feel all the changes made help bring the game to its true stance. Making it based on realism... A good gamer can adjust. [ Comment: Report \| IP: Logged ]
	ryano theb0g 09:58 19/1/2002	I have to agree xceed, these guys (usually) know what they are doing and the counterstrike fanbase only grows with each release. Deean [ Comment: Report \| IP: Logged ]

	VespR 15:43 19/1/2002	Also does anyone else think that when you "drop the bomb" or pick it up, then only the T's should know about this and not make it universal. It's just when your crosshair strafes over a target you see their name. Now if you're clever enough to remember who picked up the bomb it'll make focusing your attention on the enemy a lot easier if you know where the bomb is without even seeing it on the ground, just by seeing the name of the player whom picked it up. Just a thought? [ Comment: Report \| IP: Logged ]
	Blitz Editor UKTerrorist 17:21 19/1/2002	I presume it would be a T only message. Bit daft otherwise, would save the CTs from needing to guard a dropped bomb. [ Comment: Report \| IP: Logged ]
