Cleaner, brighter, better. Maps in Counter-Strike 2 are receiving upgrades and overhauls which leverage all of the new Source 2 tools and rendering features.
I used to wake up 8 am every saturday after saving up all week to go to a local internet cafe and used to cash in what I could afford to sit at that internet cafe and play counter strike with friends, this game has a special place in my heart.
It's crazy I am probably way younger than you but I still managed to somehow sneak into an internet cafe when I was like 8 and I got to play CS Source once with the knife and all and it imprinted itself in my head as a special moment forever
A bunch of kids 14-21 years old talking shit across the Internet cafe. That place was like the casino - time flew by and never had an idea of what time it was unless you went outside.
That is the Valve mentality and it has been so for decades. Ever since HL2 release was pushed back because of hackers, they've simply kept MOST release dates to themselves. People whine about "non-communication" from Valve, but they don't understand why... Say you will release something in 3 days, but in 2 days all of a sudden you have to postpone it, then comes the negativity.. Better to skip negativity and just release content.
0:24 I can not belive that valve had the village where I live in this map. I was shocked to the bone after seeing this. I just wanted to say one thing, Thanks Valve for this❤
valve is slowly becoming a game development company again incredible edit: it seems theyre just making a remake of csgo. i mean some of the additions are cool and they did redo like, a single map in terms of gameplay. however, im expecting more in the future. its pretty early into development rn.
Dear Valve Team, I hope this letter finds you in good health and high spirits. I am writing to you as a passionate gamer and a concerned member of the Counter-Strike community. I am reaching out to express the growing need for a dedicated server for Russian-speaking countries in Counter-Strike 2 (CS2) and to highlight the potential impact it can have on the European server community. First and foremost, I would like to acknowledge the fantastic work Valve has done in creating and maintaining the Counter-Strike franchise. The game has become a cornerstone of the global esports scene, captivating millions of players from various regions. However, it has become evident that the lack of a dedicated server for Russian-speaking countries is leading to significant issues within the European server community. Currently, players from Russia and other Russian-speaking countries have to connect to European servers, causing language barriers and inconsistent gaming experiences. The language barrier often leads to miscommunication and frustration among players, hampering teamwork and overall gameplay quality. Moreover, the disparity in network connectivity and pings between Russia and Europe results in increased latency and, consequently, a less enjoyable experience for both parties involved. By providing a dedicated server for Russian-speaking countries, Valve can alleviate these issues and enhance the gaming experience for players from both regions. This solution would promote better communication, stronger teamwork, and fairer gameplay. Additionally, it would foster a more inclusive and diverse community, where players can fully enjoy the game in their preferred language, leading to increased player engagement and longevity. Furthermore, this step would have a positive impact on the European server community as well. With a dedicated server for Russian-speaking countries, European servers would experience reduced server load and lower ping times, resulting in smoother gameplay and enhanced server performance. This change would undoubtedly breathe new life into the European server community and ensure its continued growth and vitality. As a community, we genuinely believe that Valve, as a leading force in the gaming industry, has the power and influence to make a substantial difference. We kindly request your consideration and support in establishing a dedicated server for Russian-speaking countries in CS2. We understand that this may require significant resources, but we firmly believe that the long-term benefits outweigh the initial investment. Thank you for your attention to this matter. We sincerely hope that you will give due consideration to our request. The Counter-Strike community eagerly awaits a response from Valve, and we remain confident that you will make the right decision for the betterment of the game and its players. Yours sincerely, on behalf of EU PLAYER
That's crazy. I wonder if they would add more new stuff into tbr game now. It seemed like old engine is the only thing holding them back from adding new stuff likethat
For some even myself the smoke was a instant denier in early round when as a t, this will make molotovs a must for ct's since smoke will no longer really work for a rush denier, at least in my opinion.
I like how they want their game to succeed by giving players what they want AND creating a map maker that will boost sales and leave the community happy
That's how they make money. Valve creates a framework, tells the community to handle it and rakes in the money with minimal effort. Works every time, somehow.
that literally is like VR cs, and has nothing to do with it being cool, kiddo. it completely takes away the strategic aspects of the game. this cannot be the update to come, it would ruin the game.......

Oh man, I haven't played since 1.6. This was shocking in regards to the amount of memories that flooded my brain. I'm 40. This is a game I played obsessively at 20.
I don't even play CS, and don't have any real interest in doing so, but seeing Valve coming back to _game_ development and finally seeing the fruits of Source 2 (CS2, HL: Alyx, Aperture Desk Job) just fills me with such joy. It feels like seeing the old Valve again. It makes my poor TF2 heart hope beyond hope. Source 2 isn't the most advanced graphics in the world, but what it excels at is a _consistently_ all around great look and ease of running its games. It still looks super detailed (even in VR), but it's less heavy than most other high-detail games.
Lord Gaben: welcome to Counter-Strike 2, after several years of development, i hope it was worth the wait, my favorite map is Dust2, thank you and have fun.
Now would be the best time to do it, Blizzard killed OV and OV2 os complete trash, People are finally getting tired of the battle royal format the time is ripe for Valve to revamp its class based shooter
@@auraskadante6273 Bruh...come on man don't jizz on my cupcake and tell me it's frosting, The game started out as a perfectly balanced hero shooter that was 6v6, Then they started adding too many hybrid characters and the pros figured out that the offensive characters were obsolete and 3 tank 3 healer was the way to go because of the hybrids, At this point the game was broken instead of blizzard acknowledging this they instituted a class lock and the game was instantly dead, OV2 Is even further of a step back because blizzard refused to acknowledge the game play in balance because of the hybrid characters so they shrunk the game to 5V5 and instituted and even harsher class lock, The game is trash now is the perfect time for valve to revamp team fortress
I remember when the public beta for CS came out. Was a HL mod, fewer than 10 servers, and they were all empty. Rocking a Celeron 300a@450mhz and a Voodoo2. Fun times.
@@Niyatex A mid tier pc can push hundreds of fps in 16:9 as well. I play 4:3 to make the models appear wider and i think most play 4:3 for that reason as well
As a TF2 player, I'm very happy for the CSGO community! (valve has abandoned us, this is a cry for help) EDIT: The Summer update has arrived, Supreme Overlord Gaben has answered our prayers! Now we just need the Heavy update to come out...
@@lurksnitchtongue3958 it was, the community post stated first that they would release a new update but then it was quickly changed to say a "seasonal update", so who knows really
Everybody is gonna play this on the lowest graphics possible after 1 week because they gotta see the *Pixel* of the enemy's head turning a corner. Still, cool to see it get an overhaul.
Can you make improvements to the smoke grenade blocking the light? I think this will make the game more fun. (My grammar may be a bit weird because I use a translation software)😅
I know!! I was barely paying attention at first but my friends uncle slipped out and stuck it in pretty hard and it make me twitch a little to the side and I noticed the lighting!!! It's so good.

vAlVe WiLl bE mAkIng gAmEs AgAiN Theyre probably just gonna re-release half-life but with the new engine... call it black mesa 2; the gordoning or something
@@scootza1 Nah. Black Mesa is already HL1 remake. I HIGHLY doubt they would re-release a game that was already remade unless they plan on remaking it and taking it a completely different direction.
@@TechnologicallyTechnical True. For example, I remember when bds got them to rehaul the netcode, and 2kliksphillip got them to fix minor things multiple times.
An engine that looked impressive when the L4D2 Plantation level screens leaked in 2014.. I mean it still looks good, but only one major game has been released on this engine (bar DOTA2) for all the time it's been around, S&box doesn't count because it's not made by Valve. It's just sad. Where's L4D3?! That game needed a sequel ages ago as it's so bare-bones.
Realistically we probably will get a L4D3 I'm guessing it's a similar issue to HL where the expectations are high as hell and they don't wanna screw it up
This is so exciting, I’m glad the time was taken to make an actual good game than just rushing it. I’m sure these new features will bring more techniques and tactics
Is the music at the beginning referencing the Condition Zero Deleted Scenes theme? The one everyone think it's from the original CS? Holy shit that's cool
Thank you for keeping originals as well without touching them too much for true OG's. This is something lots of big gaming companies could learn from. Well done, looks awesome.
True OG's lol I didn't see any inclusions of the original maps there, just the CS:GO ones. I'd quite like to see a bunch of untouched maps from 1.6's legacy in there. y'know, cs_assault for example. Was nice to see italy though
@@zhell I don't think it's raytraced though. Nice reflections isn't always raytracing, especially since that would use a lot of the performance budget for no reason.
Fun fact: Ever since CS 1.6, there have been 3 Major versions of Counter Strike released: CS:CZ, CS:S, and CS:GO. Which can be named alternatively as CS 1.7, 1.8, and 1.9. Making CS2 logical in the version timeline.
as a gamer who played counter strike already when it first came out in version 1.0 back in 2000 i would have never ever imagined that i would be still playing videogames at age 42. so happy to see them announce CS2. honestly can't wait.
After spending like 10 years trying and failing to make Half-Life 3, Valve finally is making stuff again. Alyx, Steam Deck, the new Big Picture UI, giving Source 2 to S&box, and now CS 2. What a time to be alive!
Source 2's Hammer for Half Life: Alyx was the most fun I had using ANY sort of Hammer editor. Now, it's in a non-VR game! I'm sure workshop creators will love the new editor and all the other tools that come with it
Also the new garry's mod successor made by the same people, S&box, also uses source 2. It is truly getting close to replacing source 1 entirely, we just need at least a good single player game or two to round things out.
it looks more like Cs source rather than inferno we had in csgo which is a good thing, in my honest opinion. Imagine they give back mid window from t side
That’s what I’m saying! I feel like TF2 looks ancient compared to anything today. With it’s straight up pngs of characters on the main menu. something like this would hopefully maybe bring some new life into it
A game that was not even a game in fact , but a custom modification of Hal Life, for almost 25 years ! remains so beloved and popular (although so many "killers" of this game have been announced) I would also compare the CS with a serviceable reliable bike - no need to put the steering wheel from the car on it , lift up the front or rear wheel , swap them or attach additional wheels - just change the chain and bushing , lubricate with oil and update the tires on the wheels - everything is fine
Well boys, and girls that's another series to add to the "2 and pending" list Although on a serious note, it's nice seeing valve being active in the games industry again
And considering that Source 2 is a brand spanking new engine, we won't have to worry about map size limitations or loading points ever again like we did with Source 1! Maybe now I can finally see Killzone 2: Source 2 become a Reality or even a revival of Boreal Alyph now that the team doesn't have to worry about Source 1's limitations anymore.

Now would be the best time to do it, Blizzard killed OV and OV2 os complete trash, People are finally getting tired of the battle royal format the time is ripe for Valve to revamp its class based shooter
@@DangleSan ov2 aint that bad tbh
@@auraskadante6273 Bruh...come on man don't jizz on my cupcake and tell me it's frosting, The game started out as a perfectly balanced hero shooter that was 6v6, Then they started adding too many hybrid characters and the pros figured out that the offensive characters were obsolete and 3 tank 3 healer was the way to go because of the hybrids, At this point the game was broken instead of blizzard acknowledging this they instituted a class lock and the game was instantly dead, OV2 Is even further of a step back because blizzard refused to acknowledge the game play in balance because of the hybrid characters so they shrunk the game to 5V5 and instituted and even harsher class lock, The game is trash now is the perfect time for valve to revamp team fortress
Team Fortress 3?
I like how they’re not even like “Introducing Counter Strike 2” and just jump straight into features of it like you already know what it is.
That's our lord Gaben for you.

Working with the community and modding developers is a very smart move.
Valve’s been doing that since 1997
@@TechnologicallyTechnical True. For example, I remember when bds got them to rehaul the netcode, and 2kliksphillip got them to fix minor things multiple times.

What rockstar should have done all the years...
Valve is pretty much the last good game company
Let’s hope those legendary graffiti is still there. Those are icons of many beautiful Esport moments during the franchise history.
Summer will end soon. Will they release it this month or in September?
An engine that looked impressive when the L4D2 Plantation level screens leaked in 2014.. I mean it still looks good, but only one major game has been released on this engine (bar DOTA2) for all the time it's been around, S&box doesn't count because it's not made by Valve. It's just sad. Where's L4D3?! That game needed a sequel ages ago as it's so bare-bones.
HLA is also made in Source 2
Realistically we probably will get a L4D3 I'm guessing it's a similar issue to HL where the expectations are high as hell and they don't wanna screw it up
Another person forgetting about half life alyx :(
there's a 3 in that it would never get approved
L4D3 was cancelled internally
This is so exciting, I’m glad the time was taken to make an actual good game than just rushing it. I’m sure these new features will bring more techniques and tactics

Fun fact:
Ever since CS 1.6, there have been 3 Major versions of Counter Strike released: CS:CZ, CS:S, and CS:GO. Which can be named alternatively as CS 1.7, 1.8, and 1.9. Making CS2 logical in the version timeline.

Source 2's Hammer for Half Life: Alyx was the most fun I had using ANY sort of Hammer editor. Now, it's in a non-VR game! I'm sure workshop creators will love the new editor and all the other tools that come with it
Also the new garry's mod successor made by the same people, S&box, also uses source 2.
It is truly getting close to replacing source 1 entirely, we just need at least a good single player game or two to round things out.
Let’s hope so, compared to UnrealEd it was lagging behind and that was many years ago. Not seeing the lighting in Hammer was my biggest annoyance

Anyone else get super excited with the sneak peak of the New Inferno? Can’t wait to see it, always been one of my favorite maps.
yesss, reworked inferno in CSGO is messy with colors and on cs2 it looks so clean, I hope we get to see it soon, more than just 2nd mid
it looks more like Cs source rather than inferno we had in csgo which is a good thing, in my honest opinion. Imagine they give back mid window from t side
Plus no skybox, banana control is going to be a whole lot harder to take, and so I b site with the limited use of moltovs. Should be interesting.
God damn that gameplay at the end looks so much more transformative than I was expecting. Outstanding job
I dunno b0ss he emptied a whole clip on the guys face and he was still standing there so it still looks like good ol' cs to me

Bajs lock in
A game that was not even a game in fact , but a custom modification of Hal Life, for almost 25 years ! remains so beloved and popular (although so many "killers" of this game have been announced)
I would also compare the CS with a serviceable reliable bike - no need to put the steering wheel from the car on it , lift up the front or rear wheel , swap them or attach additional wheels - just change the chain and bushing , lubricate with oil and update the tires on the wheels - everything is fine
Sick.
Still waiting for number 3..
Well boys, and girls that's another series to add to the "2 and pending" list
Although on a serious note, it's nice seeing valve being active in the games industry again
Hopefully they make another Singleplayer story game (non vr).
It's the third CS. They literally are just memeing now. They will do whatever it takes to not use the number that shall not be named.
Really hope they collab with the tf2 source 2 project too! Overall smokes look better and that is all I needed to see
The last counter strike we will ever see
why do you say that?
The community developed content will be DOPE! Hope valve make it open source for creators
And considering that Source 2 is a brand spanking new engine, we won't have to worry about map size limitations or loading points ever again like we did with Source 1!
Maybe now I can finally see Killzone 2: Source 2 become a Reality or even a revival of Boreal Alyph now that the team doesn't have to worry about Source 1's limitations anymore.
