Yeah, they will change it.  It is going to also be a real beta and not a demo beta.  A wider beta should start fairly soon and I am predicting it could be in beta until spring of next year.  I wasn't so excited for it originally because of how terrible CS:S is right now.  Orange Box really killed the speed of the game and I have had it uninstalled for a few weeks now.  But since they are really building the engine around CS:GO this time, I feel it should be better.  They should have done this from the start instead of messing with CS:S.  I also feel like they are listening to the right people this time around.  When Orange Box CS:S was in beta, there were so many idiot telling them what to do.  The only people playing the beta were people that didn't have counter-strike and were playing because the beta was free.  So they just had a bunch of people whining because the game was too hard.
