Posted by Blitz at 10:00 23/4/2002.

Rizzuh has sent over an email to let us know that CSNation have posted up a full list of the CS V1.4 changes that we'll be seeing very soon. The list is pretty big so I won't quote them all. Here's a selection of the changes:

Voice communication uses DirectSound by default now
Added player ID to Half-Life DM
Added chat flood protection to HLDM.

	VespR 11:22 23/4/2002	I liked hearing the enemies radio commands when they were close by. [ Comment: Report \| IP: Logged ]
	Messiah Game2XS.Monkey Magic 11:35 23/4/2002	yeh i found hearing ppls radio cmd's on publics useful but in clan games it kinda rendered them useless so hopefully 1.4 will see the return of the "Enemy Spotted" in a clan game near you! [ Comment: Report \| IP: Logged ]
	Mintman 12:41 23/4/2002	Yeah, I found that I stopped using radio as much as the other team could detect u by it. Also what's with removing any skill from bomb plants? No more dropping it behind the box on bs B on dust2 and jumping off the ledge on bs A :( [ Comment: Report \| IP: Logged ]
	Elem_ 13:08 23/4/2002	Hearing enemy radio was so utterly bad, that even the cs team saw how bad it was and reversed it 1 beta later. Some nice tweaks in this beta I reckon. Elem [ Comment: Report \| IP: Logged ]
	PeaKster 13:59 23/4/2002	Impressive list but it seems that its all simple but nice tweaks (and the new spectator technology which im looking forward to). The radio commands issue is a definate improvement imho - now HE/FB will be more effective again instead of hearing 'fire in the hole' the first thing youll here is the nade landing at ur feet ;p Dont like sound of jumping accuracy of pistols tweaked - i mean if there stoping u jumping already by tweaking that then also making the pistols less accurate when jumping is harsh - ill miss jumping round corner with DE as it was one of the best ways to beat a player with a better gun. But above all i think alot of changes have been aimed at clan play which is excellent. eg notification of bomb droping only to t's/when u type u flash on radar (or can now use radio again for enemy spotted etc). cant wait to dl it now ;p Gonna feel vunerable when defusing now since u cant fire and defuse at same time but should be fun in 1v1 with bomb planted....... hope [ Comment: Report \| IP: Logged ]

	Sapper 18:22 24/4/2002	a few changes seem alittle lame i.e Changed so players must stand still when planting the bomb (including no jumping) but some features sound ok, if it flops it flops, if its good its good. lets hope so. [ Comment: Report \| IP: Logged ]
