CS:S news
28. júlí.. mun CS: Source BETA koma (fyrir fólk sem á cs:cz), en þeir í valve munu láta vita á fullu þegar það kemur.. :P

önnur cs:s frétt með betuna að það verður kannski bara 1 map (í BETUNNI), líklegast de_dust

“The release of CS:Source is basically the Source engine plus CS game
code plus the content to play one map (probably de_dust).
(c/p af e-mailinu frá gabe)

The reason we are doing this is primarily to find out what problems
there are with the Source engine when we give it to a couple of hundred
thousand people.

We're doing this before we RC Half-Life 2 to give us time to fix any
issues that surface (e.g. ”on this graphics card with this version of
this BIOS and this video adapter the game won't run in widescreen
modes“).

We also get information back from the engine when it crashes, which is
also very useful in evaluating how close we are to being done (one crash
per play year - good! One crash per play hour - bad!).

So don't think of this as a CS:Source beta as much as it is a Source
engine configuration and compatibility test.

CS:Source is in great shape, and I don't see it impacting the RC date.
It is the plan to include it in the regular and collectors edition
boxes.
