Touché

Gabe asked the CS team at Valve to design a game that would allow them to troll console players. Job well done!

I realise it's still beta but from watching the video I don't think I could leave CSS for that

I've played the beta over a hour now and no way any 1.6 player will leave to play this

The whole point of the Molotov is for competitive play.

It's a tactical tool designed to block off certain routes to give a defending team time to regroup. Same with the decoy grenade, it's for teams who throw a dummy and pretend to go one way and then send the bomb another. It's very tactical

So the decoy grenade basically cuts out fakes?

I guess it'll make strats a bit more interesting. Triple fakes in a game?

the decoy grenade makes weapon sounds of whichever weapon you have equipped.

So you use it to throw a dummy and feign a rush on say B

The molotov puts a pool of fire on the floor and can be used to momentarily cut off routes

Is there any word from Valve on when the beta is likely to become open?

 

[dmcg]

made some screenshots on dust2 matchmaker only seems to use dust

I like how the game tints to the colour of your team at the start

It looks like CS: Source mixed in with Battlefield.

Lol thats what i said to a few in my clan!

Apparently there are a few obvious bugs/exploits:

1) If you run forward alongside a wall and hold a strafe key into the wall you gain a lot of speed.

2) Whilst running forward in general you can quickly tap left and right which also accelerates you.

I don't have the game but this it what I've been told by a guy from work who has it.
