RUMOR: Counter-Strike: Source Beta Coming; Updated to Latest

[Flash]

Just saw this rumor over at CS Nation:

Counter-Strike: Source Beta Coming; Updated to Latest Public Source Build
http://csnation.totalgamingnetwork.com/ ... urce-Build

I can see where it might need some updating to ease the porting to Mac.

Myth confirmed:

My guess is that this is like the DoD:S update - they're switching to the Orange Box engine.

Looks like Dog's already made a server for it - 69.162.99.28:27016 TheVille.Org X - Counterstrike Source Beta [HLStatsX]

[Dog]

Yup
And so has Stevo!

Both filled in seconds.
Reserved slots will not be working until we get SM working properly

[TheCarpe]

Aww, I missed it

[NoahTheBoa]

Wait.... CS:S beta? I'm confused.

[Dog]

It's over?????

[TheCarpe]

Nope, no luck. I guess if the slots filled in seconds, the available beta slots went just as fast

[Hamese]

That sucks... I was out of town and couldn't d/l it.

Features new to the beta:

144 achievements added
New lifetime player stats and summary screens
New match player stats and summary screens
New end of round display with MVP and interesting fact about a player
Updated scoreboard with new icons, visual style, MVP stars, and avatar pictures
New cinematic death camera
New domination and revenge system
Added avatar icons to voice chat, scoreboard, and end of round display
Incorporated many source engine updates

OK, that's just a bunch of stuff from TF2 that Counter-Strike didn't even need.

Wow, post about the rumor, go to work, get home and it's official with all slots filled. Just my luck.
