On the eve of the open phase for Counter-Strike Source BETA, Game2XS have 4 new movies showing off Valve’s awesome new shooter. The movies are quite short but give a good idea of what preloaded players can expect tomorrow.

What's fixed in this release:

  • Back/forward buttons are severely messed up
  • Settings.xml and Favorite.xml appear on the desktop or %AppData%
  • Address bar text flickers
  • Random positions for child windows
  • Control Panel should only show one instance at a time
  • History system needs to be implemented
  • Address bar text should be highlighted when you click it
  • Ability to scroll favorites up and down
  • Ctrl + Enter auto complete should be added
  • Icon for SSL secured sites
  • Finish Control Panel
  • Stop, Refresh buttons (Esc, F5)
  • Skinning system
  • Rollovers for all buttons in the browser
  • Mail button sends an email to: mailto:?subject=&body=
  • For some, the Control Panel corners are pink and not transparent
  • Customize search button behavior
  • Right-click menu for tray
  • Address bar text isn't centered
  • Borders of browser are too thick
  • WebBrowser control is not themed

I'm not impressed. The graphics don't look that much better to me. Maybe when I see it on my monitor I will think differently but as of now thay look almost the same.

CounterStrike source... is it CS2, or is it just a port of the original CS to the halflife 2 engine, using functions that half life 2 has?

I got sick and tired with the original CS, but considering the graphics and functions i've heard should be in CS2 i might start playing again. Would like some clarification on all this CS-Source and CS2 hype...

CS Source is just the original CS on the Source engine with updated functions and graphics. Think of it as CS 1.7, only on an entirely new engine.

Exactly what I was thinking and they didn't even take good videos of the flashbang's haze effect.

All these movies are crappy quality with a GF4MX
This is, however, the best movie for cs:s
