CSS : The new optional weapon buying system.

Consoles Moderator Joined: Nov 05, 2006 Posts: 837

Well, everybody knows that Counter Strike Source is a game where you buy your weapons using money gained during the game, now until today the price for each weapon remaind fixed, but recently valve added a new system that allows weapon prices to change dynamically on a global scale, so if a piece of equipment gets bought alot the price tag gets higher, and vice versa. of course servers can always choose the fixed pricing method, but the new system adds an interesting layer to the game where non conventional weapons are used more often.

Valve's poor attempt at a stats system, only takes a few wishfull players to increase the price of the AK and decrese the DE Razz

get with the times!

I'm not gonna be playing it pure and simply because it requires steam which is the most awfully thought out programme ever invented.

Fair enough i see it's doing its bit to stop piracy and all that, but for me to have to wait two days to even install a retail copy of a game i brought from a shop because the steam server was having 'issues' as they put it i thought was absolutely shocking.

Anti piracy or not that programme is a shovel of sh**

Now back into my hole Smile

I know what you mean, everyone will have their opinion, but i suppose if i'd been using it for ages and it did it, i'd probably take it on the chin, but for the first game i buy that uses steam to cause me that many problems it sorta damaged my faith a bit Smile

If it wasnt for steam youd "probably" not have the ea downloader that now works...and secondly dont slate what youve not used,bf2 came with major issues and so did 2142...everyone i know laffed at EA,s attempt to create a game solution for buying and downloading...it failed badly,massive disconnects,failed downloads,and poor support..similar to the game,but E.A produce good games as we all know so there forgiven for now.
Secondly your clan has given the CSS community a crack,add bots to your server to fill,and your laffing...and why....because CSS has a mass following.........and !! its got a new best buddy and that would be Day of Defeat source....mrix loves his war games...well there nothing like "DODS"....check it out!!!!

Yes here here, its about time we had a CSS server Smile

I would personally pay more in my sub just to keep / expand it Smile

I for one have never had a problem with steam, once its installed, its working and all good. I also love the fact in CSS where you point and click, thats where you shoot. Not like this BF2 rubbish where the first person who hits "prone" wins Razz

Its a great game ghetto, you should come on it sometime. But you will get owwwwwwwwned!

PS: This is an awesome 58pl server. Check it out:

Guys

This is called DWP or Dynamic Weapon Pricing

You will get your server more active and be able to recruit more by removing it!

In your server name state you are recruting it will never be empty and that you have the servers admined as much as possible

No one likes hackers the admins will help keep genuine players involved

Also register the clan at steam bans they will stop any know STEAM ID from being on your server for longer than a minute

Regards
