Important Changes in beta[edit]

One of the new features introduced in the beta is the multi-core rendering. I will add it as an important mention, since it makes the game more playable on any machine that has a multi-core processor. This is especially relevant to older machines. Ds1GIG (talk) 05:27, 31 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know how to open a new article but in the history section it never states when the game was released publicly. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 97.87.51.244 (talk) 06:33, 29 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

System Requirements[edit]

The linux ones are just copied from windows: linux doesn't use directx. 96.255.72.75 (talk) 21:39, 7 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for pointing that out. I've just changed them to match the system requirements listed on the CS:S Steam page. The1337gamer (talk) 21:45, 7 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Abbreviation[edit]

While the abbreviation "CS:S" is commonly used by the community, the referenced source (http://store.steampowered.com/css) makes no mention of it. 24.14.112.248 (talk) 20:35, 14 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Is there any character background info? if so, add plz

We can add that too, I'll go through the wiki and research on the characters involved in the game.

CS Malvinas: Relevance, Importance, & Bias[edit]

I have just rewritten Counter-Strike: Source#Modifications's sole enttry, which is currently about Counter-Strike: Malvinas. When I found this section, it was biased in favor of Britain and incorrectly, repeatedly insisted that this was a standalone game, not simply a map for CS:S.

I question the relevance & importance of this section altogether, and do not think it should have its own article. While the controversy and hacking may warrant a brief mention, they are not the extent of CS:S's modifications.

I think a solid way forward for the article (regardless of if we keep the Malvinas mention) would be to turn the "Modifications" section into "Notable Modifications" and list/describe common CS:S gamemodes such as gungame, kz, surf, jailbreak, etc and a separate mention for the game's huge mapping scene. Malvinas could be mentioned here, along with the controversy, though I am again not sure if it should remain at all.

Any guidance appreciated.
