[QUOTE=The very best;35072893]Whatever, I give up trying to get a beta key. Out of like, 20 competitions and several waves of beta key giveouts, nothing.
Might just wait for open beta/release[/QUOTE]
I think I've been saying almost the same thing since the keys from CS:GO events, but I never give up, aways trying to win one of those thousand contests, but I keep failing..
It's like I'm going to die if I don't get a key soon.

OK, question about net_graph 1. See how yours has the "offline" at the bottom? It gets cut off on mine:

Is there any way I can fix that?
Daaaamnn yooou Valve! No key.
I hope they keep going with keys sent out every week
Is the beta on an every Friday update schedule, like Dota 2?
Gabe sure does hate my guts :(

The automated beta selection system is programmed to hate you.
Well, I can say for the first time I've enjoyed playing Counter Strike.
Is this actually global lighting?
Man these shadows really are nice, just look at this.

Yes
Now all Valve needs to do is add penumbras ( rip GTS 450 ;~; )
No i think im wrong

No, that would require ray-tracing (or a ton of hacky code with projected textures).
What they need is to get better textures that don't look so low resolution.

Does Crysis 2's DX11 update use ray-tracing or hacky code/projected textures?
Because from what I heard, their implementation of penumbras wasn't really impactful on framerate.
Ah fuck, didn't get a key.

If you are VAC banned on CSS does the ban also go to GO?
[QUOTE=PaChIrA;35075047]If you are VAC banned on CSS does the ban also go to GO?[/QUOTE]
Yes. Getting banned from one source game means getting banned from all source games

Actually I am not banned in L4D series.

The thing is, that they ARE low resolution (512x512).
Goddamn been waiting for both dota 2 and CS:GO. Enetered every survey and contest to get keys. Never won one. Fuck me :suicide:
[QUOTE=killer89;35075079]The thing is, that they ARE low resolution (512x512).[/QUOTE]
Same with L4D2, but L4D1 implemented $detail so it was a lot less noticeable.
If I get the beta (or when the game comes out) I'll probably spend a good amount of time recreating the textures (Trying to make it look the same as possible in terms of design / location of grass etc) and having them higher res (anywhere from 1024^2 to 4096^2 depending on the situation) with SSbump and $detail.
I'll probably send to VALVe and ask they add it to CS:GO retail. :v:

Crysis 2's "Variable Penumbra" just blurs the shadow of an object the further away it is from the caster (Like how shadows fall-off and ambient light effects them in real life)
They are not actually Penumbras.
Source's baked lighting can have penumbras - They may be hard to see, but where an object casts 2 shadows, and where they separate, that is a penumbra.

HOLY FUCKIN SHIT, just got into beta. Thing is, I've never expected it to happen. I'd been waiting for Dota for months and got it thanks to the STS.
