CS:S Seoul Impressions

[Kommunistsvin]

Just saw the vid. Dust2 looks really great, but it did seem larger? Maybe I'm seeing things but especially the area left of ct spawn seemed much bigger. (we call it center where I'm from ) Looks like they've made the maps a bit bigger.



Also, anyone else notice if the silencer is always on the USP when shown in 3rd person? Noticed once when they spectated a guy in 1st person using the usp without the silencer that it was on when the perspective changed to 3rd like in old cs - One of those little things that's always annoyed me about old cs. Hopefully they'll change that before release :)

looks no different from CS now... run and shoot.

Which is the whole point.

After all... CS is fine right now. If you ignore certain glaring issues, of course...

it looks the same gameplay because it is the same gameplay, they were just changin physics and graphics which is where i see the let down..

It's called "Counter-Strike: Source" for one reason. It's CS on the Source engine. You won't see great strides or extreme changes in gameplay here as it's the same game on a new engine. Just wait for CS2 for the extreme changes to come.

Ah, I thought you were let down in the gameplay department. What though, is so disappointing about the updated graphics? We're looking at little 320x240 resolution shaky cam videos here =/

They're rushing it for the HL2 release. They know this feature will sell LOTS of copies. Its a pity really, money is where the whole thing boils down to, I hate it.

[Vi3tSkl11]

If they were really doing this for money, would they be giving it to us for free? They could easily charge us for it and make twice as much money...

watched the video. graphics look amazing. gameplay looks about the same. the only thing that bugs me are the player animations. i prefer the current ones to the ones i saw in the video. the cs2 ones seem to skate around the floor and just move way to "smoothly".

well i can tell that the graphics ARE superb, yes, but not quite what i was looking for, what im trying to say is that no matter how good these graphics are, a person can still think they suck, compared to what they thought they would be. in this case, i thought they would be better, so i feel let down, waitin so long for a game that has graphics of this quality

[ultracooldom]

even if your computer cant run it smooth, its called turning down the graphics...

[fonaul]

i thought counter-strike was about the gameplay, not about the graphics.



the graphical changes they made to maps, it seems like they don't care how these changes affect the gameplay.
