The beta should now be available, go go go!

Welcome to the beta.

In addition to an update to CS:GO earlier this afternoon (see the release notes <a href="http://store.steampowered.com/news/8641/">here</a>), everyone who has <a href="http://store.steampowered.com/app/730/">pre-purchased</a> the game should now have access.

We’re excited to add so many new players to the beta today. As we approach the release of CS:GO on August 21st, play as much as you can, and let us know what you think in the forums.
