update reversed

[rossy]

just so everyone knows.. im sure ur aware all those updates with jump sounds etc were replaced read full article here http://www.gotfrag.com/cs/story/44189/

 

GotFrag.com – Following community outcry and many attempted fixes to the crouch hopping “fix” the following updates have just been patched in for Counter-Strike 1.6

 

* Rolled back recent silent walking exploit fixes as we investigate less impactful ways of preventing the bug

* Adjusted bomb bounding box to prevent silent plant exploit

* Fix to eliminate or significantly reduce “flashbugs”

* Fixed status icons (buy zone, bomb zone, etc) disappearing when starting a recording, or issuing a fullupdate

* Prevent creating aliases using the same name as existing cvars

* Rate limit fullupdate and some other commands to prevent spamming

* Fixed an issue with grenades where they could go into an area and bounce infinitely, causing the server to choke and or crash

 

Many of these updates to 1.6 have been a long time coming, and also hopefully will have a positive impact on the competitive scene, the removal of flash bugs and silent planting will greatly reduce possible disputes in both online and LAN play, along with the reversal of the botched fix Valve implemented last month for crouch hopping should improve competitive play at all levels.

 

Other updates such as the nade bouncing fix and the buy zone when recording fix are sure to be much appreciated and it’s nice that someone at valve took the time to fix some of these old bugs, hopefully with continued support by Valve 1.6 will keep becoming a more bug free game for all of us to enjoy for many more years to come.

sad to see the rolling nades go

 

but the crouchhopping fix was more of a pain than a fix, nice to see Valve recognize this and rolled it back whilst other avenues are explored.

 

GJ Valve. Nice to see some attention being spent on what still is their best game

Glad Valve does not just discard their old games. Granted it was probably unpaid interns whom fixed these bugs, I’m just glad they still got looked at. Most Company’s would not even bother. Props to Valve.
