The most significant new change I see is that radio commands will be heard by nearby enemy. Sound plays a HUGE role in this game!

[ CS 1.3 release update] [ Friday, September 7, 2001 ] - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - As you can tell, the anticipated "first week" of September has come and gone. Things change quickly with large releases like this, so I can only give my best estimate. Now it's looking like in the next 2 weeks (hopefully next week, but that could change). There are a lot of factors, such as Retail and Mod version issues lining up with Half-Life patches to support the new Valve technology. Regardless, we really think you guys are going to like the voice communication and proxy spectator mode -- both new features will add great depth to all Half-Life mods. We've tested the voice comm even on the slowest connections; everybody will be able to enjoy it. Keep an eye on cs.net -- things are about to get crazy. [ cliffe ]

Do you think that if you are using the built in voice chat and are near someone they can also hear it or is it just for the "get in position" type commands?
It will be interesting to see how the voice chat works.

I think someone said it will be like roger wilco... the other team will be able to hear your "fire in the hole" comands. Thats all they hear. I dont think thats a big deal really... A lot of people use roger wilco or game voice already so integrating it isnt really tht big of a thing.
