The HalfLife & CounterStrike Thread (with new CS trailer)

[ashu888ashu888]

Correction correction guys......

Counter Strike 1.6 (a.k.a Counter Strike-Anthology wich is based on the Half Life engine, while (as i said earlier)...
Counter Strike Source is based on Source engine (wich is the Half Life 2 engine a.k.a Source engine)....

So basically Source is the newer version of CS as compared to 1.6 (both of them are on the Half life engines, one on old and the other on a newer HL engine..)
So i will buy CSS (based on Source a.k.a HL2 engine...)

BTW Vivek, I hv replied to ur pm..


Cheers n e-peace.....

Counter Strike online-help

how can i play counter strike-condition zero online.

[ashu888ashu888]

Can u giv sum strain to ur eyes and see this thread... www.thinkdigit.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=36892 Its jus on the 1st page of the Gamerz section.. Reporting to mods to lock this thread..

BTW, Since u hv steam, there shud be a detailed manual of using it. If not then connect to net, open steam and search for a server and it will ask for ur Product Key a.k.a Game key found on ur CD pack. Enter the Code and the servers will be opened after authorising that u hv a Legal copy...

Cheers n e-peace.....

Hey Vivek, Im getting CS1.6 a.k.a. Counter Strike-Anthology 1 Original CD pack for Rs.499/- and CSS a.k.a. Counter Strike Source for Rs.999/- (but its system specs are not matching mine) so i will stick to CS1.6 as the CSS requires a high RAM and processy speed wich i dnt hv as of now...

There must be a link given in ur manual for setting up a server to play CS-CZ online also link to STEAM to validate ur game please refer tat too and postresults.

@ medigit
Bro, giv the screenshot thumbnail or a link (not for d/loading the word.doc). I hops u knw how to take a screenshot of a screen... If not then jus single left click on a particular screen (of wich u want to take the screen shot) and press ALT+Print screen and then open MS Paint and paste (ctrl+v) it and then upload the pic to rapidshare

Cheers n e-peace......

 

[medigit]

i have pasted the picture in the .doc file .Plz see that.

 

[ashu888ashu888]

@ medigit

I hv seen the error, Did reinstalling the game and its patches help u out ?? If u havent tried it yet, then i would recommend u to update the game files thru STEAM and post ur results. There seems that the game is not able to execute the gamefiles due to an older version and/or corrupted files.

Cheers n e-peace.....

^^ Sorry ashu, I was *too* busy playing de_dust online for hours everyday.... so didn't bothered to check what's going on.... :roll:. Anyways, did you get the copy of Source, trust me, ITS PURE FUN!!

 

[ashu888ashu888]

Welcome back Vivek

Well there is aproblem, wich is: CS:SOURCE wont run on my system smoothly as my system doesnt support the required specs yar Shud i still gamble on buying that game??

I checked out the prices and found tat CS 1.6 (a.k.a CS Anthology 1) is priced at Rs.499/- and CSS is at Rs.999/-

Wat are ur system specs bro !! wen u play CSS ?? I get a fps(frame rate) of 60 while playing CS 1.6 and since CSS is more graphics oriented i dnt think tat iw ill be able to play it, But anyhow tell me ur system specs and then if tat matchs mine, then i will buy CSS so awating ur reply...

BTW, sum other guys hv questions (related to Online gameplay of CS titles) wich are present in this thread, So if u knw it and if ur not too busy then plz reply to them. As i hv not played CS titles online so i cant help them much but hv tried my best


Cheers n e-peace....

Alright, I am here to help you guys...

Hey Vivek, Im getting CS1.6 a.k.a. Counter Strike-Anthology 1 Original CD pack for Rs.499/- and CSS a.k.a. Counter Strike Source for Rs.999/- (but its system specs are not matching mine) so i will stick to CS1.6 as the CSS requires a high RAM and processy speed wich i dnt hv as of now...

Do u guys hv CS1.6 ??? please reply....

Cheers n e-peace....

Ok, you should change to 512 RAM from 256, so that you will play the game smoothly, TRUST ME! My configuration is, infact I have a laptop, P4 2.8, 1.25 GB RAM, 128 MB ATi 9000 video. I get like 55-60 FPS in 1280X800X32 resolution with shadows and other things like 4XAA and 2XAS filtering. 8)

i am havin problems with steam.
i have entered the CS-CZ key successfully and also installed the game but Steam is always downloading the game files.Does it not know that i have installed the game already.
Or do i have to move the game folders somewhere else.
Please help.i want to play CS online.

Ok, let Steam do whatever it is doing, i.e. it will update your game files to date and install the latest upgrades like patches and other things itself. So, it is ok if it takes some time if it displays that steam is downloading new files and installing it. Don't worry and let me know then what is happening.

@ashu, again, your graphics card is good to play Source, but you should increase your RAM to 512 MB, so try to add 256 MB more to your current config, if possible. That way, you won't have to gamble to buy CS: Source.
Peace guys....

 

[ashu888ashu888]

@ Vivek,

So looks like i will hv to shell out a heavy sum for tat (including the RAM as well as CSS version)...lol....

NEways will try to get additional RAM and tell u here itself as and wen i get it, but one more thing Vivek, is the CS-Source gameplay smooth enough !! With a 512 MB RAM and a 2 Ghz processy ??

Cheers n e-peace.....

 

[vmp_vivek]

Sure, CSS version IS and WILL RUN smooth with 512 RAM and 2GHz processor. Sure, let me know when you will purchase (or gamble?) the money for that, LOL.
