Counter-Strike Map Pack Soon

Nov 30, 2000 5:14am CST tags: Half-Life, Counter-Strike
Big news for all the Counter-Strike players, an update yesterday afternoon at Counter-Strike.net has word that an official map pack will be released online. Here's the direct word:

we're going to hopefully be putting out a map-pack for those of you who don't have all the CS maps. A few had to be left out due to complications in the retail process. We'll update with more info as soon as we finalize the pack.

Thats the cue to badger me with requests for the Shack CS server to come back online. I'll take another crack at it soon, not sure what busted and we all know how easy to use Linux is.
