Counterstrike problem


Recommended Posts

Whenever I try to connect to a server on counterstrike the connection fails and i get the message "could not complete connection to server". I have a cable modem that works fine with other games.

Steam is horrid, but youll just have to get used to 1.6 WON will eventually go down, sorry. I dont know why some people hate steam, but I hate it because it has to install in about 3 or 4 different directories all over your hard drive, then it has to be stupid and feed you the data of some games as you play them (I cant play half life or opposing force single player anymore because of this) and for some reason, the steam.exe will mysteriously delete itself.

Strange, because .. I used to play (cheat :pinch: ) with CS 1.5 retail a whole lot, and then when Steam beta came out.. it was ok.

Now, Im on Cable and 1.6 seems pretty damn fast. I dont really care what steam does directory wise, but as far as sucking ... im not exactly sure I got an answer as to why. And as for the executable easing itself.. err.. ??

my executable has never been lost, and i played through all of HL and OpFor with little to no problems.... luck? up to you to decide, but i love steam. when friends is up, its quite handy.

this might be a little off topic, i used to play cs 1.5 before they went to 1.6. I want to start playing again! anyway, when is half life 2 coming out?

i hate steam because im on 56k and when i decide to play counter-strike, i have to sit and wait for 2 hours for it to download a new update. Also, if you want to set up a lan game, everyone has to be connected to the internet to start steam, which basically defeats the purpose of a lan game. Plus, i am a scripter, and they changed the buy menu completly around, and made it extremely hard to write a good script without using the command menu. And i know that it doesnt do this on everyones computer, but no matter how many times i reinstall steam, my guns always end up in the left hand, and i can not get them to switch to the right. It also does not show any of my half-life mods in my game list. It's just all around stupid and i see steam failing in the future and valve going back to retail versions and regular patches.

uh.... they made it much more simple to write scripts. instead of worrying about the command menu, you can simply do "scout" or whatever in the console. same thing works with the scripting, just use the weapon names.

and no official bots, as those will be in CS:CZ (someday....). there are other ones out there though. someone asked in another thread recently, glance around.
