hey all is till havent been able to play the cs source beta. i have everything downlaoded and in properties it says the game is 100% and ready to play but when i click on it to play it says
'This Game Is Currently Unavailable' 'Please try Again At Another Time'
Its been doing this all day and to be seriously honest im getting really fu*ked of now. what a waste of money.

wate of momey? well, it's a BETA program, which is FREE, for owners of counterstrike condition zero, the ati half life 2 bundle, or members of the cyber cafe program.
unless you're a very very single-minded individual with an unhealthy counterstrike addiction, it hasn't cost you anything
lmao, i agree with hex. You DIDN'T pay for it. Valve only just decided who to let the beta out to. Reinstall steam ;)Quote:

all very strange... now it's 7 mins - go figure.
I'd hoped that it would actually download, given that I restarted steam before I went out tonight. Who knew you had to restart the client to get it to pull updates.
You have to go into properties of CS:S in the games menu and tell it to always update otherwise it doesn't ;)
Well actually when i consider that for me to get my ati voucher i had to pay £400 to get it. so really in some way or another ppl did have to pay money to be able to test it.
Ive tried reinstalling steam. ive even made it delete cs source and redownlaod it. but it still aint working.
Ok, i'm trying to say this nicely 'cause you're acting like a timmy. You DIDN'T pay to play CS:S beta. When valve made those vouchers they hadn't planned that the people with those vouchers were going to be playing the beta. It said the voucher was for HL2 and NOT for CS:S beta. If you want to act like that go and complain to valve.Quote:

Neon - have you cycled the client? A good couple of times in case you're having the same problems I am.
Kezzer... was set to automatically update... cycled the app this morning - then it pulled another update inspite of having all the settings on all the games set to automatically keep up to date.
Oh well - it's not much of a stretch! Was fun getting some gaming in last night - I forget exactly how fast you have to be in cs! It's quite scary... what's even more scary is that I was plonked firmly in the middle in terms of score!

Thank you ;)
Is it? Oh, I thought it was RL, and me sitting at my desk at work was a game...
I get the error "couldn't CRC map de_dust.bsp".
