Counter-Strike: Global Offensive Video Preview - General

I don't like what I see.

What's wrong? It still has that CS feeling.

It barely looks like something Valve would make. It's like CS 1.6 with Left for Dead 2 engine.

I'm hoping that they make some nice view model running animations like they did in L4D 1/2.

What did you expect?

Don't like the cross hair either.

Holy fucking shit. I AM SO EXCITED.

looks cool likin the new weapons

Go to :50 for the most awkward left-handed reach around bolt release ever. Also, looks like L4D in a way, I don't like it. The graphical makeover isn't enough of one to actually warrant the creation of this game...am I wrong?

the video wont let me submit my age, even on different browsers is there somewhere else they have the vid

Looks good actually.

So is it going to be a full 50$ or what?

Doesn't look like what anything I expected. I would have thought the games style would follow suit with l4d and portal, like how the textures looked really clean and the models looked almost cartoonish to some degree. But I like what I see in any case.

I've never been much of a Counter-Strike person myself, but this looks really nice. I wonder how the CoD/console players will react to the lack of ironsights.

Alright, can't wait for surf maps, and a fuck ton of mods that make joining a server impossible.

This could get me back into the game. I got pretty good at it, though it is one of those games where a decent pub player doesn't compare to a pro. That's what I like about it though, with a lot of games I feel like the gap between a decent player and a pro isn't that big.

Gimme gimme gimme

im really looking forward to this and this doesn't even look like the source engine. But i hope its not $70 on launch

Weapon models seem a bit small to me. Looks greats none the less.

[QUOTE=yuper11;31947351]im really looking forward to this and this doesn't even look like the source engine. But i hope its not $70 on launch[/QUOTE] Knowing Valve, it will probably start out at 40 dollars and go down to like 15 dollars within a year.

I'm adoring the new crosshair, never realized how sick of the old 4-line crosshair I was until I saw this.

I would so buy this game if Valve would collect every piece of custom sound there possibly is and make it available for you from the start. That way, I'm not waiting to join a server because I'm downloading a gigabyte of sounds.

holy fuck the sounds, maps, models and ragdoll physics are awesome. reminds me a lot of ZPS pumpshot gun? stun gun? molotov? man. this keeps getting better.

Yay new weapons.

Oh great, yeah, remake the shitty maps with 3 ways at best that you can go. And put the most unbalanced weapon back into the game too. I expected more than this.

The maps and gameplay look great, the AK47 kinda looks like a toy, CSS version looks much better. And the AWP is still in and still kills in 1 shot..

oh god that ak47 reload animation is awful [editline]26th August 2011[/editline] I'll keep an eye out for it though, remember how different L4D was when it released compared to the first gameplay videos?

So it's basically just CS:S with bad animations?
