Yeh, I think that interview explains it. Can't remember though.

Starting to look like it could be really good but still not sure if i want to leave source behind.

MS don't want the Steam overlay on 360, same thing happened with Portal 2.

Not sure why theres so many complaints about the animations, for the msot part they just seem to be recycled from source. Even the running animation in source had a kind of floaty\skating look to it, looks the same in this.

I for one think the animations look alright, especially the old headshot animation being back!

AWWWWWWWWWW YEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!

Biggest worries for me with a franchise i love !

5 v 5 and matchmaking. I know custom games can be made with more players, but with dedicated servers its just a lot easier to play with the same people on a map you want etc.

Also will this matchmaking be with dedicated servers or host connection.

waited 8 years for this news and to be honest its not looking brilliant right now.

You wont actually believe how much that 1 line has eased my bleeding heart hehe but seriously valve less l4d/portal and more of the game which put you where you are today. Ive allways defended valve when it came to how long they where taking to put out each episode of half life.

But even I have now lost patience. Man up valve!

Launch Trailer, cross-platform confirmed on it.

Don't see why people are complaining about the graphics. Looks a lot better than CSS, and I thought 'pro' people turned down all the settings anyway to maximise frame rate. To them it doesn't matter what the game looks like. It looks as good as COD, and of course it isn't going to look as good as BF3, but then again what games are?? Plus, it will mean the average computer can run it.

Looks pretty decent to me, liking the idea of the molotov for map control should make it a little more tactical, also like the addition of the stairs and widening of the underpass on Dust!

Might give this a go, hated Sourse but loved 1.5/1.6

Shadez · 2 Sep 2011 at 13:11

25 million copies of ccs sold :eek:

thats a lot considering people got it for free when it came out.

Since when would a molotov block some suited up counter terrorism guys? It's only petrol in a bottle with immediate explosive power.

Well according to the video's it leaves the ground on fire causing damage over time when stood in it, you aren't going to want to stroll through a choke point with one of those on the floor that's probably got somebody watching it anyway
