reference for this statement.

Meh - due to Australian laws, most normal methods of ingame-ads cannot be
used.

etc.)

hopefully :)

I would agree, and express the same sentiments, although in
slightly less colourful language. :)

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.
