the interview said there will be NO additional traffic or cpu-use for
the servers!
my conclusion => the ads will be CLIENTsided only.
clients will download them like steam-updates and ads will even be
activated on LAN and offline client-servers.
no need to flame because you'll be unable to turn off ads SERVERsided...

I would agree, and express the same sentiments, except in much more
graphic language that does not pussyfoot around. Ads piss me off. Ads in
my game will make me viloently angry.

Subject: [hlds] VALVe wants advertisements in CS 1.6
interview: advertisements coming to cs
In-game advertisements are coming to Counter-Strike 1.6. Go ahead and
let
that sink in a bit. CS-Nation has the exclusive first interview with
Valve's
Doug Lombardi about this upcoming addition into the Counter-Strike
world.
CS-Nation: Many gamers who play CS 1.6 purchased the retail version.
CS:
Source was sold as part of the Half-Life 2 package. How do you think
gamers
who purchase your products will react to in-game ads?
Doug Lombardi: We believe that gamers are going to expect and accept
well-done advertising in games. We want to make sure that advertising
does
not detract from the game experience, so it is our hope that first time
Counter-Strike purchasers will consider it simply as part of the game
world.
There are three information packed pages to this interview. Go ahead
and
give it a gander and voice your opinions in the comment section.

Hey permanent screw heads. Your going to pay for my fucking server when
you
put up ads in it? Get bloody real!
This SO pisses me off. We do all the fuckin work of hosting YOUR GAME
on
OUR
SERVERS for fucking FREE and you are now going to use it as
advertisement
base?
What the bloody fucking hell is wrong with you people?
Forgive me for all the swearing, but i basicly feel like i've been
fucked
up
the ass with a giant baseball batt.
We pay the cost for the server hardware, we pay the costs for the
bandwith
and propper server locations, and your gettin all the money of it?
If we put up some ads in our server to help fund it you go all wah wah
treadning with lawsuites 'n shit, and now your pulling the very same
shit,
by putting the ads in, and taking money out of our own hands. Meaning
we
have to pay even more cause we wont attrackt our own advertisers
anymore
due
to this shit?
What a bunch of crap shit this is.
Saint K.
