<div class="IPBDescription">Mnyeh!</div> Okay, first, go <a href='http://www.gamespot.com/pc/action/counterstrikesource/preview_6103815.html' target='_blank'>here.</a> Now that you've seen that, we now know, That you will get CS:S with TFC:S, DoD:S when you buy HL2. You CAN get CS:S standalone, but if you get HL2, it comes with CS:S. Same with collector's edition.

...this also has TONS of new CS:S footage, and confirms something I have feared: The removal of the riot shield(and thus, the removal of teamwork, once again).

    Remember when I complained about the ejection ports being on the wrong side of the guns again, and all of you said "olo he's holding it in left hand k?" Yeah. They're on the wrong side for both hands.

    Punks.

    That being said, I'm looking forward to playing it. I still play lots of CS, and CS:S looks like a very solid improvement on what I feel is a fun, simple game.

    good vid, can't wait to see those ragdolls in action. The whole hitbox problem being removed *i think* should really make it worth while.

    Yes, because as we all know, graphics make the game. I mean, gameplay? They should totally take that crap out and just make movies instead.

    yeah, after that they said, "CS:S will be availbe first to cafe's in early august, then a week later too CZ owners."

    "The source engine is so cool you can do this, that etc"

    "You will still be able to play it on older machines, youll just not be able to see the bumpmapping etc."

    "The riot shield is gone"

    stuff like that really.

    They should jsut have nerfed the shield to make it realistic or make it go down as it takes hits liek body armour,

    just so long as its not the invincible metal slab as it is now.


    PS

    its not a riot shield as its more a tactical ballistic entry shield.


    Riot shields are smaller and made of different material.

    What's wrong with Ricochet? It's a fun little game that's nice to play once in a while.

    EDIT: I wonder if they'll port the CS bot to other mods like DMC and DoD...?
  • Sniper_ChanceSniper_Chance Join Date: 2002-12-11 Member: 10549Members
    They did show the Riot Shield being used in that one German CS:S video.

    If they do remove it, that's a waste of a good shield model. :/

    I DARE YOU to try CZ, and play on servers. The intelligence level jumps just as high as NS, I swear. Though its still just as hard to find teamwork, but once you do, the game(just like NS) gets 10x as fun.

    Yeah, The only bit of that vid i found interesting was the bit about it being much easier than expected to port CS and only took a couple of guys. This brings a great prospect for NS

    That sort of puzzles me too...if you buy HL2, you also get CS:S. 2 games.

    On the other hand....if you get CS:S, you only get one game o_O

    Who wouldn't want 2 games for the price of one?!

    What teamwork? There's no teamwork when trying to take someone down with the shield, it's more of a game to see who can kill him the fastest.

    Actually I did pay for condition zero before it had come out and wanted to play it, and once i did for some wierd reason I had 500+ ping in cz on every server. The only thing I really used it for was to test the cs maps that I used to make with the bots, who would just end up getting stuck. But now that you say so I might try out cz again, but I'll definitely play cs:s in the days we get to play it.
