I've mostly just been going through the matchmaking buttons as the servers currently available don't seem to be running the classic 5v5 games.
Bit of a pain as you can get connected to high ping servers.
Pre-ordered. No beta access
Can I run it on the exact same specs as css?
I've heard people say it's still the source engine, but looking at the steam store pages there is a significant difference in spec reqs.
It goes by American time, so it wont be till afternoon/evening I guess
It's the most recent version of the source engine afaik, or maybe the same version used in Portal 2.
I best wait then. My laptop starts to struggle when someone throws a smoke in css

Save it as casey.cfg in:
PATH-TO-STEAM\steamapps\USERNAME\counter-strike source\cstrike\cfg
Then to try it, open console before joining a server and type:
exec casey
If you want it to load automatically, put that line in autoexec.cfg in the same folder.
