              I haven't been able to download it because all the queues have been full! Will keep trying today.

              If it sucks I can always fall back on Day of Defeat I guess.

                        I actually quite like the new cs. You don't have people jumping around headshotting you like stupid and I like the new spectator mode, very stylish.

                        I love it how the guns are so much more accurate when crouched, especially the pistols. The cheat protection also seems to be working quite well.

                        I haven't played the new maps yet, but I hope they are good.
