Why not Source?

[Friedchicken100]

I went to this lan gaming center and everyone was playing the first counterstrike when they could play the source version. I asked someone why then prefer the first one and they just said they like it better. I don't get it, I LOVED source. All the textures and everything looked a lot better. So what's up?

I like peanut butter....

Point is, just because you like it, doesn't mean every will or does.

I was playing cs since the first public release and it seems like they always do something that makes me hate it little by little.

To be honest i dont think cs:s is nothing to write home about. Yah it was cool at first with the new effects and whatnot. But im a true born DOD fan now

come on DOD:S!!!

[Friedchicken100]

yeah but if cs:s is just a little better, wouldn't just a little better be better than nothing better?

[GroundZero3]

no

if they have choice, why not pick the one you enjoy the most?

[Friedchicken100]

DOD:S!!!!! WOOHOO!!!!

Its gonna be western sizzlin'

But you need a better system to handle the new source engine... I bet the CS gets better FPS performance without source.

from what i understand all the people on the dod team was moved to CS:S to move over the maps to source.

thats what i heard.

actualy i get higher fps on counterstrike source than i do on regular counterstrike and i have a lot of settings turned up at 1024 768

dont ask why but maybe this means you loose your bet?

source is a great game

improves on everything

maps.... better and CAN be bigger if you want to play a bigger map

physics!!!!!!!! OMG you cant shoot through 2 foot thick brick walls????

physics alone makes the game more fair and much more enjoyable

i get higher fps in source too ^^ i thought it was just me but i guess not

[Friedchicken100]

then there's that, but the guys at the gaming cafe were playing the first cs with systems that could easily handle source.

Is there a better "feel" with the first one?

[vikeor]

the feel is the same EXCEPT they change the speed at which the crosshair returns to the normal state...

[Friedchicken100]

yeah thats one thing I noticed.

The weapons looked SSSOOO nice! And the flashbang effect is much more realistic.

[vikeor]

and u go deaf from nades

[Friedchicken100]

yeah the ringing noise that was cool

Not surprising if you use an ATI card. Half life 1 and all its mods hated ATI cards. HL2 and the source engine is of course, optimized for ATI cards. Radeon owners rejoice
