Over at GotFrag, Anomoly has conducted an interview with Valve's Jess Cliffe. They discuss the way CS has developed over the years, from being a beta downloaded by 50 people to the world's most popular game. However, most importantly is the information at the bottom. In response to the community and Shaguar's article, Cliffe reveals that Valve will change the money system in CS.
• Disabled round timer when bomb is planted• Winning defensive team now gets the same amount of money whether they win by round timeout or not ($3250 instead of $2000)
• Players on the offensive team who survive the round due to a round timeout no longer receive money the next round
• Terrorist team now gets an additional +$800 per player if they plant the bomb but still lose the round
Some very interesting changes, especially the last two. One wonders how the community will react to the changes. Read the full interview over on GotFrag.

Steam runs fine, and not being able to delete ur favourites is hardly a big problem lol.
Things that do need fixing are demo problems, including smoke bug. Oh yeah I wish they'd fix HLTV aswell, picture in picture is to big so when someone zooms in its f***s up. Plus duck dont close the menu anymore so u cant change target with mouse once picture in picture is up. [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

be a bit silly if it stopped when u STARTED to plant, coz u cud just stop planting and u wuda delayed the timer, or u cud get shot while planting and the timer wud get stuck/delayed, so logically its when the bomb is planted? [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

not all the time outs are eco based...
if it was a last man left in a 4v1... and he's got an awp.. and rest will be able to afford ak's next round with losing money etc.. he'll hold awp cos he doesnt need money next round... its only the player that lives that doesnt get money... rest of his team do.. as they died :x [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

What if with 20 or so seconds to go the sole remaining to only has a glock and the majority of the ct are alive and fully tooled up. All the ct have to do is hide together and NOT kill him so he gets no cash for next round. If he plants then it should be easy for ct to win (unless it's my clan of course!).
I can see a few instances of "honest mr admin, i fell off that wall 5 times in a row by accident" [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

These changes arn't going to stop round outs, shaw just gave the perfect example as to why it won't, to remove timeouts you have to remove every incentive to camp the round out. [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]
