Don't forget the 64 bit and dual core support! -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ghost Sent: 17 November 2006 23:12 To: hlds_linux@list.valvesoftware.com Subject: Re: [hlds_linux] Counter-Strike: Source and Source Engine Update Released
Valve - instead of ignoring us, can you give us some insight? Can you say something? Why are you always so silent? Specifically, I would like to hear your thoughts on: - Is this update _really_ worth breaking so many mods and server add-ons? - Why is CS:S not considered good enough for the CPL? - Why are you adding features that the community did not ask for instead of fixing long-time bugs? - Why do you think that CS:S is played less then CS1.6 even though 1.6 is much older? - Why are you ignoring the community instead of using them to your advantage? (testing, betas, ideas, sales, etc.) - If the community is not important to you what is? - What are your long term plans for CS:S? - Why do you think your solutions are the best ones? I am not trolling for Valve bashing answers from the court. These are honest questions that I have for Valve. I run 3 public servers that together get 60,000+ connection attempts per month and a CS:S community with a website that gets 350,000+ hits per month. My communities users spend money by renting servers (game, web, vent), buying STEAM games (The Ship, etc.) and convincing others to buy CS:S. Yes we are just a small voice but the point I am trying to make is that we are part of the overall community. We are your end users. I will not try and hide my disappointment in the last update but this really sucks. The add-ons provided by Mani make my servers fun. They add choice and switch up the "same old thing". Now that is gone (by default). For the first time I actually started thinking about either just giving up and shutting everything down or migrating to a new game. My decision has not been made yet, I'm still thinking. I guess I just don't understand and am hoping for some honest enlightenment from Valve themselves. Am I asking for too much?
