Has anybody played the newest update.?
It comes bundled with Steam which is kinda like Gamespy ie you can find servers for all variants of Halflife and mods, buddy list etc. It also contains a Halflife update.
I finnally got round to trying it yesterday and tbh I have mixed feelings. Basically it is the same but with a few changes. Generally things look abit more up to date, the menus look nicer, the console is easier to use.
There are a couple of new weapons including the Riot shield for the CTs whcih is pretty cool, but you can only use the pistol behind it.
Another thing I noticed is that it tells you when a teammate has thrown a grenade or flashbang etc so you know when to turn away!
Having said all that, it didnt seem the same, it felt jerky and I was struggleing to get any kills. I am not sure if that was just me tho, as I did have downloads going but my ping was fairly low. Whenever there was any action it felt very jerky and I would end up dead.
Has anyone else played it yet? What are your thoughts?
