OLD SKOOL CS PLAYERS (1.3-1.6)

[afraser2k]

The map I miss the most is the APC-version of Siege. Sure it was bugged but it made the map a whole lot of fun, it didn't last long though. The APC made life very difficult for camping terrorists especially those using sniper rifles.

1.3(?) I didn't like much due to the AWP/DEagle quick-switching bunny-hoppers that in the end forced Valve to change both weapons and some of the gameplay.

was anyone around in 1999 ish for Beta 3? Thats when I started playing. 'wasted' a good 4 years playing cs most days/nights.

 

[Weebull]

thanks but its none of them xD

American or British or European?

Some kind of clue beyond "their name was a bit like this only it wasn't like this at all" would be nice.

arabstreets was an awsome map

i started back in beta 6.5 and yes the game mag's updates were a MUST have for updates

I remember them days. PC Zone disks were my main source of updates due to crappy 56k

i also remember when i had a diamond supra express 56k modem, and it was giving me SUB 200 PINGS!! wowee. Back at that time few people had pings less than 180. Every now and then someone would have isdn and would be a LPB

LPB is an old term these days

Sub 200 pffft
Pace 56k Voice ISA was the best modem I ever came across, capable of sub-90 pings with a quality isp. It was one reason why when I built a Pentium3 system in 2000 I made sure I got a mobo with an ISA slot, which had started to get hard to come by.

lol ai we were there when ED was "respectable". Top for a while

 

[Master_X]

Its all commercialized now. Beta was so much better..... (6 was the best )

Wonder what it would be like if they hadent sold the CS brand to Valve???

 

[matja]

haha the buggy APC on siege was BRILLIANT.

cs_arabstreets, as_highrise and cs_militia were my favorites. - pretty much stopped playing it when they fixed bunny hopping - doing a 'rev up' on the tower by cs spawn on cs_assault and jumping onto the warehouse sure suprised those T's.
