New CS:CZ/CSX Details

[[SWE]Twiggy]

but seriously, DRUG LORD?! omg ritual....

[TeMPeR]

current EAX mode doesnt support 5.1?



i always thought it did

[FLeK0]

Translated Gabe Newell i-view from PC Gameplay

We'll continue to fully support the mod community and will provide a number of mulitplayer modes and maps in HL2 itself, although I won't be going into specifics at this point in time.

[CmdrFlesh]

hey "focus on horizontally-oriented action" sounds good harr harr...

[aioth]

Finally, an M60. Sprayage+Prayage=Ownage

[Tx3]

anyways, the game is finished... The staff at ritualistic is just trying to get some 1337 skills at it before they go public with it, and when they do, they will rule public servers all over the world..



then, the 14 year old fagots will start getting some skill at the game, and ritualistic makes an update, where they are the only ones who have skills again! they have fooled you all, fooled you!!!!!!



BTW, I wrote faggots, but the spell check thingy made it fagots.. neat!

[Shadow]

I'm gonna get condition zero for PC....i already have a L337 graphics card and a chair that has speakers all over it to produce suround sound,and syringes and machetes are little melee weapons.And i don't give a damn piece of chicken-shit bout the other features,the PC version already has those.And,to top off this paragraph,id like to say that:

WTF is a drug lord gonna do to you,give u an overdose of Columbian crack while getting their ass sprayed with bullets by an SAS!??!Thanks for taking the time to read my insane ramblings,all.

[Pharlap]

the EAX setup in CS/HL is geared towards 4.1 surround sound. i cant see a reason to have more channels than that.

[Gpig]

Playing CS in widescreen is appealing to me...



I wonder if they'll put in support for like the mice you can attach using a usb adapter. I don't have an xbox but if they did have a mouse feature I wouldn't see much reason to not get one since they're so cheap, heh.



Also, fun thing to post on xbox forums when the game is released: OMG WHAT RES DO U GUYS PREFER?!



Sorry one last thing I forgot to add. BOING!



Edit: Wait, they say CZ is coming next month? Right...

» CSX will offer all of the current CS material, the new Condition Zero content, and exclusive content including two weapons (Syringe and Machete), two solo missions, and at least five multiplayer maps



Lmao, a syringe and a machete...thats like.. a somewhat movie-comical thing for knifers but other then that..their pretty crappy.



»CSX exclusive graphical enhancements include 24-bit texture

quality, improved lighting and particle effects, and new color schemes



Exclusive? Yah right.. CS 1.6 already has 3 2 - b i t , the reason they say exclusive is that 24 bit is crap on the comp, everything else is included in CS:CZ



» Support for a widescreen aspect ratio and 480p progressive scan mode enhances the visuals and DD 5.1 provides an incredibly realistic soundscape



I guess thats good, but a comp can always match that up with an audigy2



» Geometry of levels will be altered to account for the loss of precision that comes with the controller-interface; focus on horizontally-oriented action

ugh.. that means some of our fav maps will be gone



» Valve will review submissions of custom mods and maps, and release approved content through Xbox Live



Sounds good



» Hacks will be virtually eliminated from the closed gaming network that is Xbox Live; PKers and idlers will be automatically kicked from servers by Valve's anti-cheat software



This is the one damn thing that is like 100000% good on this



» Player limit undetermined, it will be 16 or 20 players depending on how net coding progresses



haha



» Planned support for clan spray tags

"planned" I doubt this will happen, if everyone sprayed their logo, it'd probably crash it haha ^O^



I just hate XBOX

[Quietus]

"CSX is slated for release this fall, CZ is due out May 2003 (yes, next month...really)."



Anyone happen to notice that at the bottom of the news article that Ritual posted on their website? CZ coming out in May? Hah, and I'm the freakin Queen of England.

[pizzaboi99]

Oh yah According to that magazine scan...



All precision weapons are gone...



ak47,scout,awp and many..many pistols..plus no tact. shield

guess those fat boys won't be able to play so well using a joystick so ritual helped em out and removed all the good weapons.



Or maybe their afraid people will just get too good at the precise weapons even on XBOX.

[orphy]

You god damn idiot. Can you not read? It says here are some of the new weapons, old and new. Some is the key word, meaning that it's only a small selection of the actual weapons in the game.

[AceR]

seems fun, i wonder how cs will play on a controller?

[Mr. Tom Clancy]

Condition Zero come out next month? Thats like rizzuh getting a date for Friday night, pleaassseeeee...
