The BETA of CS:Source, which a few weeks ago was promised to preload for us on the 5th of August (today), is delayed. Jess Cliffe from Valve Software wrote the following in an email to CS Nation:
"Counter-Srike: Source will not start pre-loading on the 5th. We are working extremely hard to get it out and will have more information on this soon."
The date at which CS:Source BETA was planned to be playable, the 10th of August, is very likely to be pushed back as well. Further information or other dates were not handed out.

Mind you it is a "BETA" so its there for bug finding, reminds me of the good old beta days of CS when you would go around maps looking for bugs :D [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

and if your 'engrosed' with a game you don't look for something new to play
valve sure do know how to keep the community hating them, its getting to the stage where its really quite impressive how they manage to annoy people more and more with every single step! [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

CS's variation comes in the form of players, not gameplay... doom3 lacks in both and its absolutely dire multiplayer, too sluggish and there's no real feel to the guns [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

I personally dislike doom3 based on the fact that. Yes everything looks nice and realistic, but it doesn't feel realistic at all. You run into the most gorgeous looking box, and it just sits there like a 50 tonne weight. In HL2 you run into a box, and it will push etc, and have a sense of weight.
I think a better horror game could be made with the hl2 engine. (mod perhaps?) [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

neither valve nor id have 'contracts' with ati... they've just got associated offers which I am sure are completely separate from actual game/release strategy.
ATI could never ask or pressure either company to release earlier or later, that's just silly. [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

people expecting the monsters to reach out the screen and give you a hand job will be dissapointed , but these people will be dissapointed with hl2 when it arrives aswell [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]
