What do you want in 1.0?
——————————————————————————–
1.0 is a major milestone in the CS world. It obviously means that development is going to be slowing down. So, if you could add one feature to CS 1.0 what would it be and why?

Objective oriented scoring for sure. No more frags.
Cmon, this is a team play mod. Frags shouldnt mean crap. I, for one, would like to see some recognition for defusing the bomb or rescuing hostages or at least add points to my team's score for completing an objective. For once I would like to be leading my team not in frags, but in hostages rescued.
Gooseman has said that he doesnt want to put this in because he doesnt want all the complaints from the DMers. But since beta 4, most of the DMers have left and went on to other mods and games, yet a few linger on. I doubt he will recieve as much flak as before if this was implemented.
And no, there shouldnt be a cl_hidefrags command since that just defeats the whole purpose of hiding frags anyway.
I totally agree, but sadly gooseman is quite subborn on the issue.. He just won't do it. I think a compromise between showing frags AND your personal score. It really does get to me that I can rescue 14 hostages and win three rounds in a row and STILL have some lamer tell me that my score blows. In my opinion it really damages CS. A team game using a death-match scoring method is just plain stupid.
Name: [...rs...]-lithium
i would like to have a "bomb defused by [playername]“ and ”bomb is planted by [playername] text line on scren since 99% of the players would put some more effort and risk on the line to plant and defuse if everybody on the server saw that it was just them who did it.
the same for hostage rescue of course
Liking it, liking it! I think that would be a great addition, hell it'd encourage people to actually achieve their objectives.
Name: AlltheWhile
when players gave radio commands like, “follow me”, there were animations that went along with the radio commands. For example, when a player says, “follow me”, they could make the gesture with their hand that portrayed that statement.
Also, I think that the game needs a better way of communicating with the team what's going on. There are so many times that I wanted to tell my team to watch out under the bridge, because there are two terr's, but not being able because of the massive amount of typing that would require.
The gesture idea is really cool, but it probably won't happen. The communication issue on the otherhand… CS will probably be using a new ‘voice communicator’ that valve releases in another SDK for Half-Life. I'm not so sure I want to hear a bunch of 13 year olds whining about being killed, but it has potental for serious players.

Last feature I'd like to see is a counter of how many people are left on each team above/below your money.
I dont like pressing tab all the time to see how many are left (it blocks my vision).
Example: $16000
CT: 4 | T: 6
+ 100 \/ 100 #2:45 20 | 100
Therefore, there would be 4 ct's and 6 t's still alive. Maybe it could even include the ammount of people left to the ammount of people total. Example:
$14000
CT: 3/8 | T: 5/8
+ 70 \/ 56 #1:25 20 | 100
That example, there would be 3 of the 8 ct's alive, and 5 of the 8 t's alive.
Lemme know what you think…
Hmm.. I don't really like this idea, it's really impossible to know when you're teammates die in real life without actually seeing them. I think the ‘dead’ thing on the scoreboard should be removed for alive players, along with death messages.
Name: Thrawn
I'd like to have the ability to ‘lean’ around a corner (a la Rogue Spear), so that the entire body is not exposed. I think in one of Gooseman's interviews (one out of about 12 million….. :P), he stated that he had worked on it, but couldn't quite get the modeling the way he wanted. Still a possibility? It's anyones guess.
Leaning would be really cool, it's just CS/HL doesn't really calculate bullets all that well. They tend to shoot from the middle of the screen and not the muzzle, meaning it hits the crosshair but sometimes shoots through objects right infront of the weapon.. But still, leaning would be neat!
Name: Untouchable
I'd love to see a feature where on the side of the screen, there's perhaps a red bar that goes up as you hit your enemy with little marks on the side and it will fill up with the more hits that you have on an enemy(s). I'd like to know when im hitting my enemy from a distance with say…a glock or mp5. It might seem stupid at first but i'd like it.

Ya, it still seems stupid.

The ONE last feature I'd like to see in CS????
What I want to see before this thing is finally done are;
1 : FEMALE SKINS PLEASE - my girlfriend is a pretty good player and I want to encourage her :) (I know the cheaterz have probably closed the skins debate but you know, this is the last chance for the fairer sex in CS.)
2: Get rid of the bleedin' autoswitch!!!! I hate autoswitch in CS. Why can't we have autoswitch either an option in the setup menu or say, you only pick up a new gun if you hold down a key? Like as we do to drop a gun. Which will be crap and empty to sucker the next poor fool.
3: The silencers on the TMP and the Colt - Make em both detachable like on the Colt and restore the Colt's scope and make it's silencer a buyable item. About the price of an extra beretta should do imho.
4: Is it really too much too ask for an extra radio message to warn BEFORE you throw a grenade and not after?????
5 : Driveable vehicles? Kewl. Driveable vehicles that don't sink into the ground, get stuck on railings, jam into corners and give the passengers jitter weirdness? Cool.
6 : Hyper-Intelligent Hostages who won't get lost halfway to the rescue point. And won't stand around stoopidly so you have to go back to get them and then get killed. And can open a bloody door on their own too.
7: A special international taskforce set up to bring to justice all Camper Whiners, Blockers, URL Spammers, Members of Annoyers Anonymous, Psychos who kill all the hostages, LPBs who squat on HPB servers, and those charming types who abuse peeps for not speaking their language. And usually on European servers too, funnily enough….
8: Is this too much? Yep. Cheers! :)
Female model? Wow, now I can kill a woman!!! My life's dream!! But seriously, how many female Counter-Terrorists are there? Very few, probably somewhere near the ratio of men to women in CS. It's not really realistic to have a female Navy SEAL when there isn't one in real life. I'm all for a female terrorist or hostage if her body is displayed in a mature manner. It could even benefit general gaming sexism, since most implementations of females in games are really… distasteful.
I agree, making autoswitch and option would…. ROCK.
3/4: Keep it the way it is!
Intelligent hostages may be possible, but is it really viable to waste CPU time on a ‘smart hostage’? It'd probably require waypointing in map production, anyways.

Tell ya the truth I think it is nearly perfect. All I think that needs to be done is to perfect the vehicle code and then maybe start helping people develop bots or start developing there own bots. I think they need to optimize the game a little for the lower end systems (if they can that is).
How….. warm.
Name: Praetorian
i really wanna see a mp3 player in CS, some other mods have em, why doesnt cs, i think it would be kick ass to listen to the matrix soundtrack while nailing headshots (a lot of those now arent there) while busting a move.
Too novel.. Playing some LIMP BIZCUT music while running around on CS will just get you killed, weapon and footstep sounds are pretty important.

i think that it would be cool if counter-strike had more jungle maps. i know everyone thought forest sucks but im writing to says long live forest! forest rulez!
Forest owned!!!

Teamplay, straight up teamplay.
Um, yes.
Name: Sally
I'd like to see awps removed, they dwarf scouts and g3s, being more accurate that g3s and kill in a toe shot. Any newbie can wait 1-2 round for it and use it. I've played scout/g3 only servers and it's fun/fair to get killed in 2 (or 1 to head) shots than to just die instantly.
Removing the AWM would piss too many people off.. I say make leg shots shots NOT LETHAL. It's insane, especially since stopping for one millisecond makes you the best shooter ion this side of Texas.
Name: Ender
i've always wanted a stationary, ACCURATE machine gun, unlike the M-249 - “Para Fired for 2 Min, No Injuries or Fatalities” - something that the person could buy, deploy, and control, deploy being what you could do in Team Fortress with the Sentry Gun…except you can control this thing. It would be great just to get into a fixed position and defend that location…so many times a team just floods in through one location, it would encourage “diversified battles.”
i don't know if this would work, but deploying the sniper rifles on a bipod? …maybe…? after all, the AWP's got a folded bipod.
'course, me and several other folks would love to see a flamethrower, but we know THAT'S not going to happen.
A flame thrower?

i would like more guns and player models or maybe even a third party like CT, T, And N(neutral)they fight for the sake of fighting
That was nearly perfectly stupid.
