Your reference to little kiddie hackers is commonly referred to as myg0t. If you dont know who it is, google it and you'll see what I mean.

But CS:S's physics are pale in comparison to HL2. I finally got the gravity gun today and its just awesome. Nothing funner then throwing a barrel of fuel/explosives at enemies

myg0t is a CS clan that their goal is to only make people's game experience suck, ie: cheat, hacks, etc..

A recent example is in the last month, an exploit was found where if you put %n in your name in CS:S and joined a game, when you get killed, the server crashes out (thus, everyone else does also). They used that exploit EVERYWHERE on CS:S until Valve fixed it.

My only complaint about the game so far:

I can't pick up dead bodies and fling them down the stairs... Watching a combine soldier dude roll down them is so fun! Weeeeheheheeeeh!

I've tried with the gravity gun and you can't but I'm gonna wait for a mod that can let me pick up just about anything with it. it can pickup alot of stuff but not things like cars or semi trailers.

I've run into an irritating problem (well, more like an annoyance of sorts)... Not having to do with the game itself, I guess...

When I pump up the graphics a bit, the game runs perfectly smooth 99% of the time... The only thing is, when something sudden happens such as me turning around quickly to reveal a new something-or-other, an enemy popping out, or me shooting my gun after not having shot it for awhile, the game pauses for a split second and the audio loops, which is extremely annoying... So I have to dumb down the overall settings of the game just for those instances...

It makes me cry...

thats odd, cuz in the demo they showed at E3 last year or the year before, they picked up a dead body by the guys foot and dragged him against the table.

but then again, the gravity gun looked different then too. it shot a beam out and grabed things. perhaps an upgrade later in the game? OR perhaps something they just never put in the game. interesting tho.


Anyone know a command to change crosshair colors?
