Various improvements
 Gooseman has done more than just adding new weapons and maps. The SEAL team 6 model
had a little makeover, and looks very kewl now. Another improvement in B7 is the buying/selecting system.
When you choose your class, you get a picture and description for the character. The same goes for the
weapons. It looks neat, but I turned it off after a few hours of playing. The system is
a nice feature for newbies, but the experienced players canīt use it for much, since the old
textbased system operates faster. You can disable the VGUI buying system either trough the
customize - advanced menu, or simply by using this command in the console:
setinfo vgui_menus X (X is either 0 or 1)
  
The "escape" playmode never became a succes, because nobody wanted to be the hunted.
Escape has been removed in Beta7. Another critisised problem was the VIP in assasination games.
He canīt buy anything, and could only defend himself with the knife. Gooseman has listened to the
criticism and given the VIP an USP - only with 24 rounds though.
The remaining improvements are minor. It is finally possible to see when a player reloads.
Thereīs also added some new player animations, and they carry the weapons more realistic now.
 For instance I saw a new death animation where the character grabs his food and then
falls to the ground.....good with some renewal, instead of the usual anims.
Every time a new Beta is released some of the weapons are slightly changed. Beta7 is no exeption
and I especially noticed the MP5īs ROF (rate of fire) has been increased.
To the conclusion...
Beta7 seems very average to me. A lot of things has changed, but is it
really better? The Berretas are cool but ineffective, and the same goes for the new buying system.
The maps are ok, and the rest is just superficial improvements.
It is still CS though, and it remains the best 3D teamplay game (or should I say MOD?) outthere. Download here.
Quotes:
I really liked this beta, I think it was almost worth the wait. It just took so damn long
to get out! Oh well, good job Gooseman and... oh he's the only one who works on the mod.

Is it really worth the download? The new beta certainly does focus more on action
this time, and if you like that, then your going to enjoy CSB7.

All in all Beta 7 is an improvement, no new gameplay but the new maps
are a treat!
