After purchasing the HL2 Silver pack I have downloaded everything and I'm now in a position to start playing Counter Strike Source. I had a go for a couple of hours last night and was suitably impressed with the graphics and physics engine along with the gameplay.
I wasn't however very impressed with the atmoshere generated by the people playing on the severs I played in. Why is it that because your new to counter strike nobody is prepared to give any assistance and all you seem to get is abuse and noob bashing I feel this game has lots of potential and would be able to give most people a run for their money after learning the ropes but feel that the whole experience is being hampered by the peoples attitudes I have encountered initially.
Does anyone know of any welcoming servers where good natured people play who are prepared to take time out and make this game an enlightening experience or am I on a lost cause.?
Does anyone want to host a game (I have 512mb adsl but I'm not sure how many players my system would cope with) or point me to some servers that are more people freindly (if they exist).
I've never ever experienced this kind of hostility playing multiplayer before and have enjoyed my time playing quakeiii, UT, BHD and joint ops over the years without this kind of problem rearing it's ugly head.
Maybe I may have to give Counter Strike a miss
