Will the be a new Counterstrike Source?

Hi all,

Love this game and wondered if the will be a new release of it with improved graphics and some new maps? Played it since 1.5 and still quality.
 
Not at the moment as far as I know. Counterstrike 2 is being asked for with exactly what you ask, but I doubt valve will bother making it, or updating the old one. The CSS team is busy with L4D2 atm anyway...
 
Pretty sure Valve are working on it. Think Gabe said so in a video on Gametrailers when he talked about the developing problems with the PS3. Said something along the lines of they are working on Counterstrike 2, EP3 and Portal 2.

I'm pretty sure in that gametrailers interview Gabe says to tell the viewers that they need to send him an email to say whether they want Portal 2 or Counterstrike 2. I personally don't think Valve will make another Counterstrike until the next game engine for HL3 is released. Hopefully however you are right and I'm wrong...
 
Link is right. Not in development but potentially their next project. That or portal 2.. I mean you cant go wrong really..
 
Problem with CS is its basically controlled by all the "pros". Make 1 minor change to things and youl get a riot on every CS forum out there. Imagine if they did to CS what they did with TF2 (not in graphics, just changing stuff up a bit like removing grenades), i bet Valve would get death threats :p

Yeah, people moan but it still gets played a lot.


All the 'pros' whined when 1.6 started getting phased out for source and now theyre probably playing it :P

People will move on from Source to CS2 or whatever other game comes along that pleases them :P
 
In the interview he said hes more interested in doing portal 2.

Most CSS players just want the bugs to be fixed, we dont want a new engine or better graphics or anything like that, just for the documented bugs to be looked at, things like interpolate delay, the random nade throwing animation bug, the screwed up hitboxes on the 'crabbing' bomb planter, and there are many others.

If a new engine is required to fix these bugs then so be it, but if its not required, then they should just update the game, fix these bugs, and I think CSS would last another 5-6 years. Loads of people still play cs1.6, its the second most played online game on Steam (after CSS).
 
cs:s is pretty flawed, it looks nicer but the hitbox issues are a bit of nightmare, 1.6 is better in that respect and even that's quite flawed. So i'd prefer a CS2 that a Portal 2, but then i've never played Portal :)

Dear god, no portal!?

The door is that way ---> ;)

(Tbh I didn't play it but my GF did and I half watched. It is truely great, you should give it a go!)
 
Hmm, I find all CS's a bit boring tbh, although it will be cool to see what a new ones brings to the table. I just hope they don't basically rehash the entire game again just in a new engine.
