Surf and Zombies has already been ported. Some things are not yet implemented because they have been locked out (cannot place weapons in custom maps / improper knockback for zombies)
I really hope Valve is going to make an official modding API or something to their multiplayer games later.
[QUOTE=uzikus;37156298]I thought they re-enabled surfing or something? I've seen a video for it once. Minigames? Like what?[/QUOTE] I thought I remembered reading something about a number of svars being missing like sv_airacclerate you need for proper function of surf maps
[QUOTE=aydin690;37155529]Already pre-ordered it but is this anything other than a reskinned css?[/QUOTE] From all the complaints people are voicing, they're mad that it's different so yeah, it's different
[QUOTE=Biotoxsin;37156139]Does anyone know if "gamemodes" like surf, minigames, and the like will be possible in Global Offensive? I can't imagine they won't be, but I feel like it's going to greatly influence my purchase decision.[/QUOTE] There's surf, I was playing surf a few weeks ago. I'm not sure how minigames work, but there's source mod and zombies already so i don't see why not. Sv_acceleration is missing for the client but you cans still change it as a server.

A good way to see what I mean is to open a "smash" map in hammer after decompiling
Are we going to get silencers in this next update? They said they would add them before launch.
[QUOTE=dageek;37161754]Are we going to get silencers in this next update? They said they would add them before launch.[/QUOTE]And flashlights. I'm surprised they haven't added them yet.
Woo, gonna preorder.
[QUOTE=simzboy;37161811]And flashlights. I'm surprised they haven't added them yet.[/QUOTE] I thought flashlights are going to be obsolete because maps don't have much dark areas and we've got fog in the game? I'd personally despise a flashlight without some proper animations or at least a weapon attachment, because chest flashlight is really bad.
There's no map/location in CS:GO that would require a flashlight.
[QUOTE=En Ex;37163170]There's no map/location in CS:GO that would require a flashlight.[/QUOTE] Yeah, exactly... I could point out a few darker areas though, such as the tunnel on Dust or ducts on Nuke. I'm not sure if they are pitch black, but they still could work without a flashlight I suppose. I'll check that out. Who else doesn't really like the new scoreboard? 32 player support is fine, but I don't really see any use for the $/K thing. I also liked it more when it had symbols for kills, deaths and cash instead of text.
[QUOTE=En Ex;37163170]There's no map/location in CS:GO that would require a flashlight.[/QUOTE] custom maps...?
[QUOTE=En Ex;37163170]There's no map/location in CS:GO that would require a flashlight.[/QUOTE] What about zombie mode? You cant be telling me that everyones gonna be running around in the darkness, zombies galore, without a flashlight?

Forgive my lack of modding knowledge, but are flashlights something a modder could specify as being a feature on a specific map?
[QUOTE=En Ex;37165030]I was referring to the base game, but you both have a point. Forgive my lack of modding knowledge, but are flashlights something a modder could specify as being a feature on a specific map?[/QUOTE] Not easily and it probably won't look very good.
Is CS:GO worth a buy?
Maybe the flashlight will appear later when they'll be adding the official zombie mode? Actually making the flashlight on the chest justified for realism's sake could be easily done by making a flashlight on the player models. Something like this: [img_thumb]http://usgroove.com/wp-content/uploads/CompFirstLight01.jpg[/img_thumb] Sure, this would require some model changes, but it would make more sense than making a flashlight attachment for every weapon. I know this isn't needed for the flashlight to appear, but they've been making those changes to make the game more realistic visually (fixed player models on maps and voices for each character type) so I guess that could be a simple solution to that problem.
[QUOTE=loopoo;37165159]Is CS:GO worth a buy?[/QUOTE] Affirmative. [sp]Roger that.[/sp]
Any news on when we can expect the ability to pre-load?
[QUOTE=En Ex;37165433]Affirmative. [sp]Roger that.[/sp][/QUOTE] I see what you did there ;) :v:
[QUOTE=uzikus;37155572]What I said on SPUF about female models:[/QUOTE] Tactical Ops : Assault On Terror did female models and voices pretty well, and it was an arcadey tactical shooter just like CS.
We should expect the update today, right? Since they traditionally updated during Fridays way back when?
[QUOTE=dageek;37167831]We should expect the update today, right? Since they traditionally updated during Fridays way back when?[/QUOTE] Hopefully, if not then Monday.
[QUOTE=Bound;37167805]Tactical Ops : Assault On Terror did female models and voices pretty well, and it was an arcadey tactical shooter just like CS.[/QUOTE] I'm not saying it can't be done - it's maybe just the fact that they had to hurry up to not make any more delays. We might see women models in the future.
[QUOTE=Bound;37167805]Tactical Ops : Assault On Terror did female models and voices pretty well, and it was an arcadey tactical shooter just like CS.[/QUOTE] I loved that game. Every five seconds the bots would call out EMERGENCY!
I know this is nothing big or major, but I just noticed that the video on the Store page for CS:GO has been removed. But there are some new screenshots.

Pre-ordered CS:GO today. Had to go through Steam support because I'm not at home ATM. :S For those who are wondering, I ordered through a web browser instead of through Steam. That way you don't have to worry about your IP being different.
I feel like pre ordering it. I'm not very sure though.
