Yes I think 5.1 users are the inly exeption.
And yes, that seems to be a glitch unfortunately.

Cores, shaders and BIOS oh my!
This seems like a bit of an underwhelming upgrade, kind of like CS: Source was in its time, at least visually. That blocky arch in De_Dust sticks out a lot in that screenshot. I guess they still want low end PCs to run this smoothly. Oh well, I'll be trying it still.

That's why I was going to go for the PS3 version, but Sony are keeping quiet as usual about it which means an EU release date is up in the air....
I'm sure it will be fine though on 360.
The settings are tailored for headphones, yes, and although the August 11 patch notes mention snd_speaker variants for speaker-based setups, they weren't showing up for me in the console. I didn't see any mention of them being removed in the more recent patch notes, so perhaps the game has to be set to a speaker setup for them to be visible?

Annoying isn't it?
The only response I could see to a dozen questions was one of the managers saying it's down to Valve and they'll let us know when more concrete information is coming in.
Concrete information lacking a day before advertised launch? :|
Not the first time either, unfortunately.
I'm really loving the game. Tons of fun. I haven't played CS in years, though, and I really suck. According to my Quake Live stats, I usually hit between 30-40% accuracy when playing a game of deathmatch, but I can't hit shit with an AK or an M4, haha.
I hated the default crosshair and changed it to this. I found the instructions on the Steam forums somewhere.
Dump this into the autoexec.cfg if you want your crosshairs to look the same --
Other useful commands I found on the steam forums --
I also copied and pasted the stuff in the highframes TF2 config found here - http://fakkelbrigade.eu/chris/configs/ - to my CS GO autoexec. It reduced some of the graphical fluff and makes the game cleaner and the models easier to see.

I did.
I first started playing CS with beta 3 or beta 4 where there were only left handed models. Playing it with right handed models just feels wrong.
And chill out. It was meant to be tongue in cheek.
Are you having issues looking up and down with the right stick? Seems very laggy on my end.
Whoa, does this give some advantage? I mean why wouldn't you want reduce the bobbing effect and scope to move less while zoomed in. Give me a command to remove blur while jumping with the awp
Ps3 version was the best version. But I've seen a short clip of the ps3 version in a montage made by sony for e3. I just wanna know the deal with dedicated servers for ps3

So on 360, party chat will be disabled right? Completely game breaking if its not.

I hated the gameplay at first, but really warmed up to it. Now to split time between sleeping dogs, tf2 co-op and dota 2 ;_;
It's not game breaking. You can talk to your teammates through voice chat when you're dead now, I believe. People just used to use Vent/TS/Mumble anyways.
A lot of people are questioning Major Nelson on Twitter.. but, as always, he's evading questions.
Try capitalizing CFG. And I always put an echo statement in there so I can check the console at launch and make sure it's firing off.

I just purchased it, but I donno if I should bother downloading the beta if I'll have to redownload everything tomorrow.
i am really enjoying this game. when i first started playing the beta, the game disappointed me, just didn't feel like CS. i am very happy with the recent update that came out last week. the game feels much better and honestly reminds me a lot of 1.6. it has a nice 1.6/source mixture to it.

Ah fkn lame :/
It's up to Valve? That sounds like they (SCEE) haven't even Q&A tested it! I don't... Whoozaaah, whooozaaaah...
Anyone know why the beta reduces the volume of Teamspeak 3 (and I guess other voice programs) and how to disable that?

This makes SUCH a huge difference. Thanks for the heads up. I can tell exactly where someone is coming from now. Makes the game so much more fun.
That is just shitty practice, games usually come out on Tuesday so by MS policy let's delay Skyrim because it came out on a Friday!

Is that available for people who are in the Dashboard Preview?
I haven't seen it yet.
Yes, it's amazing 1.6 like goodness and imo a huge advantage once you use it.
Yup. Just got accused of wall hacking because I ran round a corner spraying cos I heard a guy reloading. Hah, it's so good.
Same here. I was waffling on pre-ordering, finally broke down and then it tells me I already own it. I thought maybe I did it in a drunken stupor? Kinda want the slight discount and TF2 thingy.
Enjoying the demo well enough. But I wish it ran a little better. I have to dumb it down quite a bit to get a good framerate.
