HL/CS v1108 Interview

September 18, 2001 12:40 PM

Speakeasy has a brief interview with Erik Johnson of Valve Software asking about the new Half-Life patch that is scheduled for release tomorrow. Here's a couple of the important questions:

Will CS now be updated more regularly to fight the cheats that will be coming out?
[Erik Johnson] Yes.
Many players will complain that the gameplay has been affected, were there any deliberate changes and who was primarily responsible for them?
[Erik Johnson] Fixing problems with the hit boxes is going to change gameplay. Internally we see a lot more headshots than in 1.1.

Fixed hit boxes?!?! Say it aint so!
