Darren Kitchen Posted April 11, 2006 Share Posted April 11, 2006 Good news all! We now have a new and more stable IRC server at irc.hak5.org. We welcome everyone to join us in #hak5. We’ll be slowly making the transition over the week. Thanks go to Oliver Wine for making that happen smoothly. And in other awesome news, we’re currently beta-testing a new Hak.5 game server — sponsored by EVOLANS.com. We’re currently testing Counter-Strike: Source. You can join us on the server at game.hak5.org (password is hak5). Kick us an email or leave a comment about your experience, we want to get everything worked out before episode 10 release on May 5th. Thanks to everyone that has been so supportive bringing these new Hak5 services online. –Darren (yes that was just a repost from the homepage) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kYd Posted April 12, 2006 Share Posted April 12, 2006 Whoa! that's awsome. Didn't expect it that quick. Not sure if my laptop can play CS:S but i'll buy it and give it a shot :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darren Kitchen Posted April 12, 2006 Author Share Posted April 12, 2006 Nice! Now I just need a rig that can play CS ... :S Me too! no, but actually it seems to run just fine on my Athlon XP 2500+ with 512MB RAM and a Radion 9500pro. 100+ FPS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moonlit Posted April 12, 2006 Share Posted April 12, 2006 I'm lagging a little behind on my hardware atm, I haven't checked the sysreqs but my system is a AthlonXP 2100+ w/512MB DDR and NV GF 5200FX 128MB or ATI Radeon 9250 256MB depending on whether I'm using TV-out (for hak.5 - I despise watching vids on my CRT) since my 9250's TV-out is mono only on my regular TV... I guess I should check the sysreqs and go get CS so I can try the server :D Edit: Apparently this should be good enough... *contemplates buying CS:S so I can tear myself away from the still addictive MOH:AA* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stingwray Posted April 13, 2006 Share Posted April 13, 2006 it would be good to change the game fairly often so that everybody gets to play their favourite. also if we knew what it was going to be in advanced then we could go out and buy it in time to play if we didn't have it.
