Valve have just released a new update to fix a bug in the previous update with allowed players to pick up the sound of any floor type around and do it anywhere on the map simply by jumping.

The bug was caused after Valve patched the game in an attempt to prevent silent running by making the players create more noise when they jump while stationary, this however backfired and caused an uproar from the community when the bug was discovered. To see the bug in action you can visit our previous news on the subject which also includes a user submitted video.

Counter-Strike 1.6

"- Fixed the wrong sounds being played on jump when moving to different surfaces
- Fixed crash in the spectator UI when hitting tab"

So its Steam what decides for us what we have to play? It sucks so hard - full of undesired commercial, downloading updates you dont want, listing games you don't have and should buy... I installed Steam because I wanted to be part of gaming community (in other words: there was no other choice), because it made easier for me to play game I WANTED to play - but now it destroyed the game, shew community a big finger and proved everyone that it cares only about profit - not about players.
And words "CS without Steam" sound like oxymoron nowadays... Funny considering how much did they change it. That's one small step sound for game; one giant leap into pandaemonium for gameplay.

cant stand css and now the game i play has turned into it.. amazing how a company this huge have brains the size of grapes. Just restore the game to the previous version and leave it. If you hate it, either email them or post on a thread on the steam site. Hopefully some brainiac at steam hq will notice it and decide to do something about it.

Haha it seems that whenever Valve is trying to fix something they end up messing another thing up. If I were them I would at least let someone with a little knowledge of the game test it before releasing it to the public, how hard can it be =)
