Does CorsuS mean periodic patches / updates instead of huge one's that take months?

JECS · 11-02-2007, 08:10 PM

i almost stopped playing tfc and cs because of steam. i miss the old won days. its bad enough im forced to use steam i dont want to install another program. if it were to download from steam instead of crosus that would be fine, but i have no intentions of installing something else. ill just go back to tfc if that happens.

It's not a program that you use for authentication and are required to use for gameplay.

It's a system for easy updates.

If that is too much for you to bother with, how do you survive the interweb?

i never said anything about authentication. i do everything manually and i always use custom installing for everything. i dont want programs doing it for me. i run my computer lean. even my windows is a modified lite version. i dont want extra crap on here that isnt required. plus theres a chance i need to create an account. i dont want that..
crosus = not required = crap

seems like a good idea but i like the manual way

so ill go with JECS on this one

Wouldn't want to make anything easier on the devs would ya. Appreciate it.

If they are going to update it weekly/daily I think its a good move.

If not, I agree that its useless and might as well just upload a zip file to filefront or megaupload or something easy.

Haven't played with it much yet, but its got my WoW mods and ET mods listed, if it updates all those thats kinda cool too. Be nice if custom mods/mappers could keep their stuff updated with this too.

your face is not required.

there's no reason to be spiteful about crosus whatsoever, stop being spiteful about it. noone's said we're removing archived downloads.

that was the impression i was given from previous posts

JECS, do you have a 2gb hard drive or something?
Seriously, CrosuS is so small and insignificant, not to mention it's spyware free, just deal with it. If you quit on FF that easily, go play a game for people with shorter attention spans.

thats a great way to encourage more people to join the game. especially since there are so many people playing it... no i have 240gb. its not about the space it takes. i just dont want excess crap on my computer. its more about efficiency. the less it takes to get a job done the better. if its not required, and its still being used, its inefficient. plus thats one more membership i need to sign up for which i dont need, since i dont use the program for anything else and dont intend to. and i am switching games.. timeshift was just released, and crysis and cod4 are coming out very soon. and your post wasnt even needed because as mervaka said the archived downloads arent being removed which is what i thought was going to happen.
