Counter-Strike Update News

We already knew about Half-Life patch plans, but what about Counter-Strike? The official site (thanks Blues News) has been updated with the following

Here's the projected release schedule for the next few weeks. Sometime next week CS 1.0.0.2 (Retail) will be released, which features Valve's Deathmatch Classic. If you have DMC already, you won't have to download the full package -- only about 1MB or so. Then in mid July CS 1.3 will go out with Valve's integrated Voice Communication Tech as well as their new Proxy Spectator Tech. It will be called 1.3 as not to confuse it with the CS Retail version number.

  • I think valve will allow servers to have alot of options to limit abuse of voice in games. For example, you could have a 'time bank' where you only have 20 seconds of talk time per round, or you can earn voice time with kills. Maybe the longer you are on the server, or alive per round you could get more talk time. There may even be a voting system to allow one player full voice all the time, like a commander class type thing.
    I think voice has the potential to change online games a lot . We should wait and see...
