Source

T R U E T R U E. anyway i jus watched that high res cs source movie and i think the physics are gonna play a big part in this game, dunno bout anyone else but i'm a real sucker for physics, Far cry 4 example wasnt perfect but i loved it none the less jus because of the physics n graphics............but i'm gonna love cs source i can tell

lol, it's the same clip they released before but in a higher res and as Bink file.
It's the same CS as before only in higher texture quality. The best part is the water effect shading....but when they run over it the splater makes them seem like ballet dancer who ran over with their toes. Of course, if you love barrels flying around it's your game babe

That video doesn't show enough, once again valve have just cleverly manipulated the game via the videos they've released to avoid showing the shabby bits.

The video I saw was much longer and was a shaky cam of someone actually playing the game.

I wasn't impressed with the CS source bink demo at all. Valve totally remade Half Life 2 from the ground up. I love the graphics, the physics, the realistic expressions, the way people stand and move, the detailed city, freaking everything. Then I watch the CS source demo and I almost cried. It's the original counter strike with improved graphics and thats it. Even the graphics didn't seem up to par with the Half Life 2 demos. They didn't make new levels, characters, or sound effects. Give me a break. I watch how much detail is in the City in Half Life 2 and then I watch the level in CS source and theres nothing there. Just the ground and a couple of boxes. I'm not trying to beat on any CS fans out there. I just was not impressed at all.

You mean the city in HL2 with the floating buildings in the background

Its not a different game though; its still CS, with its now perfectly balanced maps.

Still the most played FPS online or probably game even.

I welcome the update just hope theres something new in the works for a proper sequel.

Thats it, it's still like CS. I don't know, maybe it's just me but I like it when they revamp sequals from the ground up, especially when it has been five years since the game came on the scene. I know so many people still play CS, so it has a great formula but there has been so many new things over the past 5 years that I think valve should have updated the entire thing instead of throwing nicer graphics on top. I don't know what you mean by "perfectly balanced maps"??? Clue me in.

on certain maps on cs terrorists kick anus all the time and on others vice versa

is it me or does the way the player holds the gun in the screen foreground look really wierd?

dont know why but it looks really odd, and not just because its lefthanded

I just downloaded some lengthy in-game vids of counterstrike source, and I have to say that i'm really really unimpressed.

The game looked nice, but that's about it. Far from a doom III beater. And as for the physics... WTF?! There were barrels littered throughout the levels (all of which looked identical, but that's beside the point), and the physics on these things were piss poor. The player could just run into an overturned barrel, and it would pretty much fly through the air infront of him, there was absolutely no weight on it at all! The same went for bottles and other random objects. IMO the physics looked like the worst i've seen in recent games, everything was completely over-exaggerated just to show off.

There were a couple of nice things though, grenade explosions looked awesome, and there was an eerie mist in some dark places which looked pretty cool. But other than that, thumbs down from me! The weapons didn't even look particularly detailed.

shut up! :thumbup: Source engine is just great!! nice! Source engine > Doom3, stalker etc...
