Quote from: TheLeonKing;338762It does feel a bit well...like a graphical upgrade and nothing more.

Which is all I ever wanted

As extra bonus they are adding new tactical features, can't wait

Yeah i'll be looking forward to the nostalgia of playing the dust maps, although i missed cs_estate and cs_siege which they didn't update for Source. Also I hope they bring back vehicle functionality (I LOVED playing the jeepathon and boat maps!

)

So here are some videos:

As a CS cynic, I can't help but be slightly impressed. I'm looking forward to this

That first video looks surprisingly good. Better than the beta tournament footage. The consolised buy menu looks a bit clunky, but I think they said they were tackling that before launch.

sowhat have they changed then....dont look like much to me

I would've liked to see the guns being able to be sighted/aimed instead of old cs style.
AFAICS it's just CSS with fancy gfx.
Bit disappointed TBH...
I'll get it though, for old times' sake

Just my idea!
Nothing special.

You can already do that, it's called Red Orchestra 2.

OH WAIT.

After seeing that footage. I'm actually looking forward to this. I don't think this kinda gameplay has aged at all. I remember all that time ago when i picked up a Groupon deal in London

They have released this survey for people to fill out to be entered into the pool of people they will choose to give beta keys to. http://blog.counter-strike.net/

Also if anyone has a key if you play fairly regularly they'll give you beta keys to give to your friends (guess what I'm hinting at there

Luminance · February 26, 2012, 11:39:38 AM

I've done over 800 deagle rounds now, Starting to really prefer this pistol over many other guns now

Thnx for the heads up to btw, filled it in, now lets wait.

some news, not good, but not desperately bad

It's a shame, but understandable. The nerd-rage that would ensue from PC gamers having to wait for patches because of the PS3 'approval' process would be horrendous - not to mention the cost to Valve!

Besides, picking on those lesser-beings who use gamepads just isn't sporting is it?
