All the globalcs help stuff and board posting how to accessible from HELP
I have added a TeamSpeak how to which is way better than the in built cs voice and Skype for broadcast verbal abuse - nice tip moleman
GLOBAL CS now just opens montreal server status - just open it in a new tab if you want to monitor it.
just to chip in over the source vs 1.6 argument -
I am connecting 2 machines over a 256kb adsl and getting a ping on both of about 320. One machine is an AMD 1400 with an ATI video card kaiser sent me and the other is a 2GHz laptop with GeForce 4 and I find playing cs:source is absolutely fine and the new maps are most excellent. I have the worst ping of you all, so if anyone is gonna moan its gonna be me.

no problem.
am still up for a retro game although I think you might find that the new levels (esp deltamill) will make you miss rio a lot less
there's a bunch of levels we haven't played yet including one in a cowboy town which is very cool.

Subject: Getting there very, very slowly!
Just left my computer for over 5 hours while it was downloading HL2, when I came back to it, it had "finished" downloading and was "ready" to play. So I go to play and...1st thing that came up "updating game" Aaaaargh. Only another 20 steam minutes, ie: anything up to an hour or more!!! WHY IS STEAM SO FUCKING SHIT??

Subject: But...
just might be able to play at the weekend!! Problem is the connection that used to be shared between four fairly light users now has about 8 including some heavy users so not sure if it will work. I'm looking at the router and every light on it is flashing like crazy!

Subject: what does it take...?
to play HL2 offline?? After 6 hours + downloading, a test play online, after checking in the game properties that it was ready to play offline, I took my puter home, tried to play off line and was told not ready to play offline , only 84% of files downloaded!!! That's after twice being told that all files were downloaded!
Seems that to play "offline" you have to be online!
