[ NEW FEATURES AND CONTENT ]

-Replaced Competitive mode "Join in Progress" matchmaking system with "Queued" matchmaking.
. -Searching for a Competitive game, either from "Find a Game" or "Play with Friends," will enter the player/s ( between 1 and 5 ) into a waiting queue. Once 10 compatible players are found then the game will begin.
. -Players that disconnect from a match can reconnect to it from the main menu or abandon it. Abandoning a game will result in a cooldown period during which no new competitive match can be joined.
. -Note: Elo will be recalibrated for the new matchmaking system over the coming weeks.
-New maps:
. -de_vertigo is now available for Classic Casual and Classic Competitive.
. -ar_monastery is now available for Arms Race.

. Reduced p90 kill award from 300% of default to 200%.

. Increased Bizon kill award from default to 200%.
. Reduced all shotguns' price by 300.

Last update was better imo. This update hasnt touched gameplay at all apart from P90 kill reward.
2012-10-02 00:51:33
why would they change the gameplay? its fine the way it is..
2012-10-02 00:53:12
I was expecting some changes to recoil. Nerfing P90 a little. Hopefully increasing the air acceleration. Probably silencers. Post Processing etc. Atleast one of these.
2012-10-02 00:56:43
They are working on the silencers apparently...
2012-10-02 00:57:38
is that true? that would be awesome
2012-10-02 01:01:28
whats post processing? i have no idea what that is tbh

oh and i though that by gameplay u meant recoil, not gun power.. :) yeah, shitty weapons are kinda strong now

Honestly speaking if they make the movement as smooth as 1.6 and make the awp little better, i can live with the new recoil and all the new guns and maps. Its the freedom of movement that kills the joy of the game for me.
2012-10-02 01:08:56
what kills the joy of the game for me is that my pc cant go over 60 fps!


btw whats post processing?

2012-10-02 02:38:49
how about this? i have no money
2012-10-02 11:12:51
then dont whine that your pc cant handle a graphically mediocre game
2012-10-02 20:17:55
lol? who the fuck are u to tell if i can or cant whine about anything? get real kid
2012-10-02 20:43:36
looks like i touched a nerve, sucks to be poor
2012-10-03 23:51:40
The grenades and the aim flinching as well.

Oh and the Radar addition as well.
2012-10-02 00:57:14
Dont know did they fix bug when multicore rendering is on.... Let's see :D
2012-10-02 00:50:26
that is freaking gorgeous! nice
2012-10-02 00:51:31
Just another patch which has not a SINGLE important thing for ME at all. Even postprocessing is still declared as a cheat-.- ..
2012-10-02 00:53:54
matchmaking will make our competitive scene huge
2012-10-02 00:56:44
Match makin system in 1.6 would have been huge
2012-10-02 00:59:41
I don't think it would. It would be ruined by lag, as u know high lag kills the game in 1.6
2012-10-02 02:41:40
true
2012-10-02 03:20:30
its good that valve is putting some effort to make the game better.
But im still waiting for some changes using jedi config on recoil.
Still , good update
2012-10-02 01:01:23

2012-10-02 01:18:04
This can't be final version of matchmaking system because as U can see its not good now. When U do not have 5 players, system put bot to play with You :D that's stupid.. x)

yeah.......... old demos won't load after this update..... NICE ONE MATES.

"ERROR: demo network protocol 11803 outdated, engine version is 12003"

2012-10-02 01:31:01
Yeah thats a common issue which has been around since the source engine was first introduced and gradually updated. TF2 scene hated that a lot.

Not sure if there is a fix for this....

Haven't they learned yet? ffs.
2012-10-02 02:06:06
the last few updates of source fixed it, no idea why they have reverted back to this system though, only way to fix it atm is to download a cracked version of that game version
2012-10-02 02:40:13
That demo problem is one of the main reasons why competitive TF2 didn't become huge. I'm afraid now that it is happening with [our community's new] CS.
