I really want a beta key for this game. Looks so good!

[QUOTE=Robertto;35009882]They still using low quality world models :/[/QUOTE] I don't know, but they look fine to me.

[QUOTE=Robertto;35009882]They still using low quality world models :/[/QUOTE] It looks much better than cs:s, and it's not like you're going to be that close to a player to actually see how detailed it in while playing. The M4A4 one looks pretty meh, but the rest, especially the AK47 world model, look great.

we still have to remember that its still a beta :)

[QUOTE=wombo;35009656]Mmmm I hope this is in the update today, the official twitter said "The map will change...," and 3 dots always means something good.[/QUOTE] add valve time to that and see what happens

I got a extra beta key I didn't even notice, 7th guy to pm me gets it :pwn:

[QUOTE=Sam Za Nemesis;35011092]I just hope they aren't faking those pretty shadows with a cleverly hidden flashlight for the promotional shots like they've done before, I really like the quality of how it looks like that[/QUOTE] I sure hope it isn't faked, it looks like it's all around the place but the ones in the background could just be static.

[QUOTE=Weltmeister;35011183]I got a extra beta key I didn't even notice, 7th guy to pm me gets it :pwn:[/QUOTE] Don't want to seem like a nag or anything but I would really like a beta key to help with the audio aspect of the game. See my TF2 sound fixes that i submitted to Valve: [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oL1OHHeonbs[/url] [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sLWbzFTThPA[/url] I just want to help :(, and play! :) EDIT: Another video showing some WIP stuff for my sound replacement mod. [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0wSh0xdz7NI[/url] Some of those sounds are old and pretty bad though haha. I think gun no.2 and 3 are my best efforts :)

People care way to much about graphics.

[QUOTE=bionic0n3;35011771]People care way to much about graphics.[/QUOTE] I totally understand what you mean and I agree... But we must accept that VALVE has made a very good improvement in their games' visuals. Judging from the video, CS:GO's lighting is way better than PORTAL 2's (and it was decent in that one) Of course, I can't be sure about that since I am not in the BETA (nor do I care) Still, I am getting even more excited about this game...

[QUOTE=i dunno;35011077]average CS:S match in australia seriously this game is dead here[/QUOTE] Uuuuh what? No it isn't... That picture was taken off a shitty server with 4k models at 4 in the morning. There were still 10 or so completely populated servers at that time too

Maybe we will get cross-platform play with the Steam Box!

Shadows on view models? Chickens? INSTANT BUY. [editline]6th March 2012[/editline] Fuck I wish I was in the beta so bad

[QUOTE=Gabe Newell;35013105]what are you talking about portal 2's lighting was great[/QUOTE] Yes it is. I used the wrong word there. Sorry. I just wanted to note that CS:GO's lighting looks even better.

but is global illumination or what? i mean like modern engines... cryengine, or the used in rockstar games and such (gta and red dead)

[QUOTE=Robertto;35013327]but is global illumination or what? i mean like modern engines... cryengine, or the used in rockstar games and such (gta and red dead)[/QUOTE] it's possible valve could implement global illumination in the PC, but not the PS3

I want to play this game so hard it hurts.

I really hope they re add vehicle controls like nipper maps, the best part about cs 1.6 maps was the map with the pit in the middle, the vehicle that was stairs and 2 ladders on each side, both teams had to get up the stairs up the ladder and shit. I swear vehicles that you can turn and shit were the shit I hope they some how make up for it if it doesn't make a return.
