it looks a lot like the last one, not very excited
I don’t think it’s much about excitement and more to converge their games on Source 2 engine. Dota2 moved years ago and it was barely a footnote for casual gamers. This time the switch is more noticeable and for the time being even a regression (which some vocal people are very mad about which I don’t get about a free game).
I hope it’s more stable than the limited test I’ve been playing.
At least practicing with friends+bots is broken as of today. I guess that’s what you get when the beta program only targets die hard competitive players who don’t care about anything the casual majority cares about.
I think the worst bugs will be remedied very shortly now that a wide user base has access to the game.
The hitboxes feel really weird.
From what I’ve heard, this could be that new sub tick system where inputs are handled as closely to real time as possible but the animations are not (it would be too compute intensive to do that as well, if I understood correctly).
You calling me a dick and fanboy definitely is more uncivilized that the colloquial term of living under a rock, especially when you yourself agreed that you don’t have motivation to check up on CS news. Fact is they announced it, it’s no surprise, you not getting the memo isn’t anybody’s fault but your own, and yet you’re too sensitive when someone just says that and feel the need to report it. Yeah…
Valve just did with CS:GO and CS2 almost exactly what Blizzard did with Overwatch and Overwatch 2.
Except that Overwatch 1 was a paid game replaced with a version with broken promises.
I know CS:GO has been Free to Play for a long time, but seriously, this is kind of a big fuck you to any archivists who wanted to keep a copy around for history’s sake.
You had half a year to archive CSGO. Don’t act as it came as a surprise or something. Steam emulators like gitlab.com/Mr_Goldberg/goldberg_emulator exist to play archived copies.
