havnt rteally played it much due to exams over the last week, but ive been playing today and it appears that i cant walk properly anymore. when im TRYING to walk around so not to be heard, every few metres its asif i let go of walk and i run for a split second, giving my position away.
i usualy read all of the udtade notes, and i recall something similar about being able to hear people walking /crouching up stairs which was fixxed.

also ive noticed on Dust 2 theres now black smoke in the air.
i play CSS a lot, and never noticed these things. but there was an update couple days ago.
anyoen else had similar probs ?
 
There has been a few changes:

As you've said;

Black Dust in the Air in De_Dust 2

What I've noticed:

Footsteps are louder
Shots are louder
Walking is more responsize and faster


Anyone else noticed anymore changes?
 
yea !
but theres diddly squat in the update news... i mean the last MAJOR / noticable update was the one before last when they added HDR to dust 1

this is weird

have you tried walking for a long distance yet without it making audiable stepping noises?
 
I thought you had uninstalled CSS as you got addicted to it?, or was that someone else?. Ive noticed that foot steps seem louder lately.

ha ha that was me a while back mate !! but then i bought an X1900 and gave in to tempatation... but i dont play half as much / intense as i used to. im clannless which helps control the playing lol, where as before in a clan it was just non stop :P

coem to think of it footsteps may be louder... its hard to tell though
 
I've just been on and it was right quick! i couldn't keep up with the pace of everything lol. The black dust in the air on dust looks pathetic in my opinion, but it's their decision so meh. :p

what u mean quick ?, asin you think the game speed has changed abit, or it was just a quick / riot / mad server?

im not the only one that thinks this but im sure that ever time you join a server you get some kind of speed hanicap / bennefit, i could sware sometimes it FEELS like im running faster, or slower game to game / server to server.

they must chnage loads of stuff without telling us !

Yeah I've noticed this, Teeside servers seem quick compared to some of the others I go on, but personally I prefer it slightly quicker than normal
 
Yeh that was an update needed for the servers otherwise while going sideways and forwards it would move faster ;)
 
what happened was a problem with valve overwriting configs so sv_accelerate was defaulting to 10 instead of 5. This made straffing really quick and much harder to shoot people at a distance. The default value should have been changed by any decent server admins now back to 5 as valve did admit it was a mistake.

As for the black smoke, i've only played once for about 2mins since the update but i didn't notice anything on D2. Must be a setting that people haven't turned off in their configs.
 
Forget running. Bunny hop around the map, it's great fun.

Well mmy css crashes every 5 minutes now so im leaving it until i wipe my pc.

just what i was about to post....damn you andy
 
Most decent servers have changed the walk back to what it was. And for the dust on d2, wth? annoys me. Like the end effects of smoke nades all over A.
 
Dust 2 lags like hell now because of that bloody pointless smoke in the air...

Might be a blessing in disguise though, maybe it'll lag a lot of other computers too and the map won't be used so much!
