Any info about GU converting to 1.6?

Well basically as the title says.
Are there preperations for the update anytime soon?

Would love to get some GU folk into some new cs eh :wink:

Sorry probably getting a little ahead of myself here, just a simple yes would be great :D

From another thread, I'd say yes 8)

Is the friggin CS 1.6 still Beta or is it final ?
Tell me or I am going to eat you all :twisted:

CS 1.6 is indeed final!
Here is news from CS Nation-

In case you haven't noticed, Counter-Strike 1.6 is indeed final. Final in that leagues and everyone else will now be using it. It may be updated, however, which is one of the major features of Steam. The developers at VALVe will be able to balance the game's major changes without doing another major release.

Steam is and always will be required to play CS 1.6.

I dont like 1.6
When i played the beta i thought the new guns were crap and the shield as an excuse to muck around. I think ill stick to 1.5 and wait for cz to come out

Bah ok people.
I'll think you'll find there are 4 serves up now. 2 of which are run under the admin team of Sabaki.

The other 2 are GU#1 and a wc3 server.

As far as I can see there is no 1.6 server about. That IP Wrathlon is about as good as trying to connect to steam.

Anyway just wondering :)

which u cant do because as of 2 weeks CS 1.5 will not be played at all seeings the WON ID system is going out the door

if wonid goes out the door what hjappens to wc3, arnt our chars based on our wonid?? and reserved slots for that matter

Been trying to figure that out, i guess anyone whos played with the 1.6 dedicated server install will probably have a better idea.

When you connect to steam you have a unique ID (I think this is run from your email address), which i guess you could use in a similar way to a wonid.

# name userid uniqueid frag time ping loss adr
#1 ".|sB|. Jono" 720 STEAM_0:1:5874 0 00:42 72 0

This is taken from using "status" within cs. Under uniqueid, mine is "STEAM_0:1:5874". This would be simple used in a simliar way to how a wonid was used i guess.

To be honest im not really sure, but thats just what I can figure out.

I'd say wc3 mod would be pretty much dead unless it was modified to suit the new 1.6. Again don't take my word as im only guessing.

Anyone had a play with the server install?

What happens to the wc3 CS?
will it stay in the 1.5 version?

jono, lookie what i found, 1.6 wc3 long xp server

Or if the admins like, the existing forum members can post their new Steam ID's and the xp is transfered or something.
BTW I own with the shield.
Its not a much around mate, its a lethal weapon if you know how to use it :P :twisted:

i reckon itdd be cool to start again

itdd give the noobs a good chance, and most of the people with lots of lv 9s/10s wouldnt mind it to much. i think. ill post a poll in the GU wc3 forum

edit: go here for the poll http://www.gamers-underground.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=12378

PlayinG ShithousE - Nice one mate, thanks for that. :D

no i wudnt like it to be reset, ive spent the last few months getting 2 lvl 10s.

Id much rather the admins transfer our 1.5 wonid xp to our 1.6 unique id's.

This is the CS 1.6 server which I usually hang around in:-
203.96.216.49:27015 :twisted:

well theres no trnasfering xp guys (from ODs keyboard) what a pity :P

i tried closing the poll but im not sure if i did it right

Yeah I suggested something which might work for transferring XP, but my hopes are not high :cry:
