HL/CS Patches Soon

Related Topics – Half-Life, half-life, Valve

Valve sends word they are going to make the Internet crash again soon, as new Counter-Strike and Half-Life patches are on the way. Here's what will be included.

New client and server updates for Half-Life and Counter-Strike are in the final phases of development and will be released in the coming weeks. Both updates (Half-Life 1.1.1.0 and C.S. 1.5) include the Ricochet Mod, phase two of the recently introduced anti-cheat technology, as well as various fixes and tweaks. The Ricochet Mod source, which includes animation blending and multi-serve technology, will be added to the Half-Life SDK. In addition, Counter-Strike 1.5 includes de_piranesi, a new mission created by Iikka Keranen.
