QuoteCS:S BETA Announced

Counter-Strike: Source will see its first BETA released in the coming months to Cybercafe partners and then to Counter-Strike: Condition Zero owners. CS: Source's BETA release continues the Counter-Strike tradition of public BETA tests. The first Counter-Strike had nearly a year and a half of BETA releases that practically changed the game from month to month (about Counter-Strike). CS 1.6 and Steam shared a nine month BETA session.

Valve's Doug Lombardi sent this to CS-Nation for release:
Starting later this summer, Valve will be conducting a limited-time beta of Counter-Strike: Source via Steam. The beta will first be open to subscribers of the Valve Cybercafé Program, and then extended to owners of Counter-Strike: Condition Zero. The next installment of the world's number 1 online action game, Counter-Strike: Source blends CS' intense teamplay with the advanced technology of Valve's Source engine. For more information, please visit //www.steampowered.com.
CS-Nation was first informed of the existence of the BETA program late last night by CSN member nadomola, after he and top members of the South Korean CS community had caught wind of the story.
Of course, later this summer could be anywhen.  The above still looks promising though.

Lol, later this summer. It looks like the summer still hasn't started yet over here in the Netherlands. Nothing but rain and so.

Thanks for the find Cadaver, good 1.
