my_e36 43 Report post Posted August 12, 2012 (edited) I wanted to but I only have a Mac Mini with Intel 3000HD graphics, does any know if this is "better" than the system requirement? (ATI Radeon HD 2400 or better / NVidia 8600M or better) Have they got a demo version that I can try? Edited August 12, 2012 by SpikeyLemon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

(ATI Radeon HD 2400 or better / NVidia 8600M or better) Have they got a demo version that I can try? I recevied the beta from Steam around 2 months ago. I can say it runs on a Intel 3000HD but playable ONLY at a lower resolution, lowest of all detail detail settings and using a software called "Game Booster" which pretty much shuts down all process you don't really need. After all that it should run 90% ok of the time. Intel 3000HD means pretty much there is no dedicated graphics card. I know because I tried on my netbook. However it plays great on my laptop with an ATI card. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
liyi_92 37 Report post Posted August 12, 2012 Yes it will de_dust2 Maps had a nice makeover graphically. Play it for a while then jump back on Source and you will go WOW Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

martyp 0 Report post Posted August 26, 2012 I don't understand why the persist on using the source hit boxes, it's literally painful. Bring back 1.6 with shiney graphics... I'll still give it a butchers though, if we can get 5 of us we could even have a cheeky PCW Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Michael. 2312 Report post Posted August 27, 2012 Ahh the good old days. Been a while since I've dabbled with CS... I agree with Marty on the 1.6 version though, I still think it's the pick of the bunch. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
