I got excited, until I found out it was Source 2.0

Hype slowly went out the door.

Hope this is good as much as I've hardly ever played other CS games it would be good to have a good game to play. Because lets be honest, COD4 is fucking dog.

They should have made a compromise between 1.6 and CS:S and completely rebranded and re-made everything. They've had plenty of time.

To me it just seems like a stand alone expansion back for CS:S.

Decoy grenade: emits fake weapon firing sounds to confuse enemies about your position

1.6 games are fun as hell, atleast in my opinion. css sucks

At the end of the day it all comes down to the implementation. Just becuase its on the Source engine doesnt necessarily mean its going to be bad, just means they have to work harder to make it good!

I am a 1.6 player at heart, but I would still be up for giving this a go. Atleast they are attempting to make a serious 5v5 competitive FPS, and have the budget to really see it through.

HLTV retards running wild already on their forums haha, will probably still fail to unite the scene unless tournaments just enforce this new game.

Why is everyone bashing CS:S? I never played source just 1.6 but if they would remake 1.6 everyone would be bashing on 1.6.

tl;dr: haters gonna hate.

i like 1.6 and s, i still find it a bit odd when you spray the bullets go above the crosshair and you have to aim with the top bit but oh well

Looks really interesting tbh, they should have invited some top CS 1.6 players as well but maybe they will ask for their input at a later stage. Some of the "new" ideas are decent but some are fucking bizarre, like a Molotov cocktail... really ? And the defuse kit idea quite idiotic x), but I love 1.6 and CSS and despite playing CoD4 they are definitely better games IMO. Hope it turns out to be a top game, something freshhh !

In the meantime one of our inside men e-mailed us the following:

CS:GO isn't a replacement for CSS. It is going to be mainly aimed at the console market (Xbox and PS3) as a download (like bf1943 etc)

They have promised to continue support for CSS throughout the development of GO and we have nothing to worry about. Gabe is coming by today and will have more of a detailed discussion then.

The only cs game i like is 1.6... you can't even aim on cs:s, this game is so random. just look at it:

www.youtube.com/watch?v=11K8cRfZB5M&feature=channel_video_title

He doesn't aim players.
Randomness to the max.

That is HLTV demo so you can't really base the game on that, but yeah 1.6 is vastly superior!
