CS: Source has come out for sometime now. However, I heard little of people talking about it. Now, it is my chance to know what you, CS Fans, think about the new breed of CS. It is also your chance to tell what you feel need to be improved in CS: Source.

I, recently, installed CS: Source in my notebook. It runs pretty well in my notebook, a little lag in smokes and when I added more than 5 bots per team. Well it is a very good performance considering I only have Pentium IV 2.0 GHz, 512 RAM, and Radeon 7500. Well, the one disappoinment is that the keyboard option has been limited to one key per each function (unlike CZ or 1.6 where we can assign 2 key for 1 function). Another disappointment is the design of the player and weapons, they are somehow less cool and detailed than that of CZ (perhaps they need to do that to minimize the burden to the computer because of too much rendering). I also find it quite difficult to kill, I don't know, perhaps the rate of fire has been increased and it is somehow less accurate. Except for the AWP, which accuracy is very very good. The grenade and flashbang are standard, but do you know that you can stuck a smoke grenade on a barrel by throwing it directly to the barrel and it will not blow up. The smoke will start to disperse if you shoot down the barrel. I guess it is a good way to make a trap for your opponent. Make your opponent go near the barrel, shoot it, and your opponent will have a hard time looking for you. And do you notice that you jump higher eventhough the gravity setting is the same. I mean you can easily jump from one box to another.

Well, overall, CS: Source is a good game just for fun and to please curiousity. It is, however, will not be able to replace CZ unless the programmers made some changes to the options and gameplay. If you ask me to rate it from 1 to 10, I'd rate it a 7.5. Good, but not good enough.

What do you think about CS: Source?

Oh and almost forget, CS: Source only have two skins for the player's models. One for each team. Well, we could not hope much from a Beta game.

Counter-Strike: Source is the top most unriveled games in the history of computers. To say that Source is anything less than perfect, you would have to be one retarted rabbit name efrum. Like the one off family guy -aka- bugs bunny. Yeah sure there are some mishaps in Source like the barels not being solid. Which is probably the only thing i can think of. Besides when the servers mess up and you can see through walls. Other then that. Source is perfect and if anyone has anything bad to say about it. Well you can just go have sex with a moose.

Counter-Strike Source Is very good, a lot of changes from the 1.6 but im not playing it as much now.

source isnt necessarly over all better at the moment, their are still a number of bugs that need to be worked out of it, but for the over all game play it is unrivaled, except by its counterpart, Half Life 2 (not to be confused with half life source).

I guess the major improvements would be the overall physics engine, which they have really done will with to where you dont have such a high ping when people with bad connections play. But if you own a server and somebody has a ping of "5" or "1" kick and or ban them immediatly, they are using a ping mask which means that they generaly already have a high ping, and also it puts a ton of stress on the server.

What I thought of CS:Source:

Well, When I first got it I was like Holy Crap! This is freaking amazing! Awesome graphics, phsyhics (like HL2), the m4 was Elite!, but then I changed. I moved over to Army games such as Americas Army and Operation Flashpoint.

But for those people who have just bought it or want to buy CS:S. Do it, it's worth it, but if your like me and like Army games, get America's Army for FREE! or Operation Flashpoint G.O.T.Y.

Americas army was ok, but i would rather play CSS

CounterStrike: Source is a very good game in my opinion, although it is not perfect.

It took me a while before anybody actually persuaded me to give CounterStrike: Source a try, because i was not a fan of Countersrike 1.6 or counterstrike: condition zero. After giving it a try for the first time, i thought that it was fairly good, so i decided to play it again, and then again until i thought that it was a highly enjoyable, fun game to play.

As people have said, there are a few minor problems with the game that make it short of perfect, but it is a much better game then i thought it was going to be.

As far as America's army is concerned, i found it far too slow paced for my liking. I much prefer counterStrike: Source to America's army, but this is just my opinion.

I think that Source is much better then CZ, I don't know what your talking about when you say CZ has better graphics, Source has 100x better graphics then CZ. Also they lowered the recoil rate so it should be easier to kill. The only problem in Source is that it isn't customizable yet like CZ in which you can have like Mp5 with Grenades. But for everything else its perfect. I would rate it 9.5.
