the FPS shows what the graphics card is outputting, but then if your frame rate is higher it'll start redrawing the next frame before the current frame is completely drawn, which looks ugly. So you enable v-sync and then it draws all nicely.

Most people turn v-sync off. The effect you're describing BBM is called "tearing" I believe. Basically it makes your gun choppy and ugly if you're getting more frames than your monitor allows. Usually the problem is fixed by using "triple buffering".

GAME HAS BEEN UPDATED!!

Beta has officially ended and Valve has released the extensive update. I have yet to try it for myself, but I am hearing mostly positive reviews so far. Will probably pub a shit ton to get all these stupid achievements.

Steam servers must be under alot of stress atm, I'm getting 24kb/s when downloading the new CS:S update and it keeps pausing randomly.
This could take a while.

Im getting 180kb/s

maybe cause im on swedish servers.

Hrm, what?

This thread died and came back awesome.

I can't wait to play with some Mac players and this update will follow with new content.

You assholes, give me some screenies!

I'm on a Swe server and i got a steady 500 kb/s...

Great! Achievements I'll never manage to get because I die straight away in the game...

because there really wasn't any discussion availible? I just bumped it because the game got updated?

herp derp derp.

No new content. And why would playing with mac players be any different than pc owners?

Meeting new people.

Valve will be a huge asshole if they don't follow through with new content.

I was playing at my brother's house and I was dissapoint. No one in any game used any type of teamwork and everyone acted its like Modern Warfare 2. Oh well, I guess I'll stick to America's Army 3 for a Team-based game.

player base is already quite large. Not like adding mac players would double it/

Valve would be huge assholes if they did. Fuck off scrub.

Is that dual-wielding with a pistol and a rifle?

Yes. He has four Arms.

pff Counter strike is garbage.

Jesus the OP is an asshole.

What's wrong with adding content?

Anyone know how I can get my old hud back?

sorry brah. Valve should just stop fucking up the game.

Only positive things I can see from this update would be multicore support, fixed network, and the updated engine. Achievements are whatever, I could care less but they don't bug me too much.

Now all servers are locked at 66 tick and everything is just too laggy. They made the deagle worse as well. Very buggy, sometimes people are invisible ffs. At least give us a finished product instead of this junk.

Don't know what the hell they did but my frames suck shit now too so I can hardly even play the game. After either I find a way to fix it or valve fixes it there's just no way.

see what they just did shows there amateurs.

They updated the graphics from Source 7 to Source 15, explains your frames.

Also the game probably was supposed to be played at 66 tic or whatever the the fuck that is, it made no difference to me when I was playing (Or Myg0ting =3)

Also they did some work on the weapons to encourage you to use the other ones, I was already using the P226 and the TMP before, but whatever.

This isn't the year 2000.

what? if anything running and gunning has gotten worse. smgs like the tmp, and p90 just aren't as good anymore. Deagle blows as well now.

In short, Valve fucked up big time. Promising Mac users the game, they rushed it and released an incomplete product. It's just so terribly buggy, glitchy, and laggy.

Only people who like the update are baddies who are too dumb to notice the gameplay changes, and are happy playing on 30 fps, while unlocking dumb achievements.

Because there is no changes to the gameplay.

Your not supposed to be running and gunning anyway.

If you don't like it-
1. Stop playing it.
2. Stop posting.

The only glitch I've seen is people getting a censored version, me getting inside the floor when I spawn (Which you can crouch it get out) and ragdolls getting stuck in walls and that just minor.

But if you INSIST on saying Valve fucked up big time, give them a few weeks.

Running and shooting should suck. Deagle is probably the least impacted gun by the engine update that I've noticed.

There's like 2 somewhat annoying bugs, the one where you have 2 guns and the one where your teammate has the opponent skin. I've not seen either, just heard of it, but no others. It's not laggy either, everyone complaining about lag I've asked what their graphics card is and either they didn't know (which means it's shit) or they said it was from like 7 years ago. Or they were playing with a slow connection, not dialup, that's obvious, but probably the next slowest type, which you won't be able to get by with anymore.

Gameplay changes? Like what? I've noticed the way ak/m4 spray patterns are different, but I'll get used to it. And you run a bit faster so you have to prefire around corners different, so hard :|
30 fps? Maybe if you're computer is from 2004. I still run at 80+ easily with maxed settings with an nVidea 9800. That card is pretty old as well now.

I can play it on an Intel 4500M and still enjoy it, people need to learn FPS (unless its like, below 10.) does not make the game better.

I too haven't noticed any change whatsoever the only bug that happens to me is when I get sucked into the ground (you can crouch to go back to normal.)

After they fixed all the bugs, I really, REALLY hope they add in new content, like they did with TF2.

I don't see what everyone is so pissed about. The game plays the same for me. I like the update.

You were probably just bad to begin with, now you have an excuse :)

my computer cant even handle the regular CC:S :C

Least impacted? Neg. You can be standing still and your shots will go out of the crosshair. You just have to space more time before shots, and strafing/running shots are less accurate as well. You could never run while spraying with ak/m4 or rifles unless you were in really close quarters, but it was viable with the deagle to strafe while shooting at short/mid distances.

They released an unfinished product. There were some subtle graphical improvements so yeah. And I will admit, the new bomb explosions look very nice. I've never experienced the dual gun bug, but I have seen cts in t skins and vice versa, very rarely though.

Spray patterns are slightly different, but nothing too significant imo. I have not noticed faster running whatsoever. Impressive. After reinstalling and restarting my comp the fps got much better. But not as great as before. All low settings except for shadows on high, dxlevel 80. 60+ on large maps (dust2, inferno, nuke, train, etc.)

I think you need to learn that it does. Anything under 30 fps is considered shit. Gun recoil is actually higher on lower fps, and registry isn't as good.

I get this one a lot. Still, pretty annoying and it should be fixed.

No. I just wish valve released an update without bugs in the first place.

If you weren't that great at the game in the first place, you won't notice the subtle changes.

Lol no.

-------------------------

Overall, registry is better. We just need to learn the new rates and update our configs to make the game run smoothly.

Many issues people hope would get fixed didn't. Such as crabwalking, and defuse stealing.

I also think, as do many other people, that the deagle was nerfed intentionally. It was pretty overpowered for $650. Just something else to get used to.
