Does it work good on laptops because it read it and it said a mouse is recommended?

That's to do with your internet connection ,not your computer hardware.

Pretty much pointless to try without a mouse as its a fps.

yh thought so ive just read about it. Still my internet is quick with wireless and modeum.

@redtom, i thought i would be able to use laptop touch mouse thing but i guess it will be stupid so i might just stop downloading it:/

edit - it isnt 6 days its 6 hours to download lol but it did say 6 days :l

edit again - no im wrong, the time keeps increasing so is probs 6 days lol.

It's gunna be full of hackers and noobs now. And how will VAC Banning work? People will just make new accounts now.

IMO this could see the death of the game as we know it.

My exact thought.



Luckily sourcemod and other admin mods are there to help out with that if you play on the correct servers.

From what I've learned from the FAQ and some Valve interviews, they've been working on monitoring tech since the game started with micro-transactions. That and admins exist as does voting and stuff.

Oh and the 'noobs' thing? MMMMMM. EAT 'EM UP YUM YUM.

I suspect that they'll just increase the speed that VAC bans are processed since it normally takes a few weeks, but if they cut it down to a few hours it should be fine. I wonder if this'll give them access to steam friends though since you normally can't use it until you've got a paid game, I wonder if TF2 will work the same since it's rather more dependant on the steam friends.

Well at least they now have by far the best free multiplayer FPS on the market.

Do original owners who paid for it get any benefits?

I have this on xbox and no one plays it, but I really enjoy it, is there a bigger community on PC?
