  • Counter Strike 2 is finally here, proving that Valve actually makes video games. However, Counter Strike 2 had quite the messy launch, with missing content, bugs, and the viral Michael Jackson lean. Counter Strike even has some dancing.
    Is Counter Strike 2 a worthy sequel? Should CSGO have gotten replaced? Let's find out if Counter Strike 2 is good.

      Although its not my biggest issues but Not having map dedicated models in each map is really a downgrade. One of reason CSGO was superior than 1.6 and CSS was because of that feature. Now in CS2 we are back too randomized model root of 1.6.

    Biggest real issue is the netplay/hitboxes when moving. Peekers advantage is so powerful that if you watch recent pro play that's all they do, nobody holds angles. Shooting behind or ahead of someone as they move will get you hits often. They really need this fixed. Outside of that, I just have minor gripes with content parity with CSGO, which it will get there eventually. Overall though I'm loving everything about it.

    The view model flip is probably because of how shooting through smokes works. The smoke doesn't get cleared where your bullets go (from your eyes), but in front of the barrel, so flipping viewmodels would also need to flip this, meaning there is potential jank in spamming a bind to flip the viewmodels to during a spray to clear more smoke.

    Just to clarify, when I say I think Counter Strike 2 deserves to be called a sequel, I meant "mechanically," since the core formula has been refined and had some changes made. Content wise? They absolutely dropped the ball. Really hoping they get the rest of the content in ASAP. I'm watching you, Gabe.
    ***EDIT***
    I actually didn’t know pinging was added to CSGO, and I think in my sub-tick example, there might’ve been a small head behind the box lol. Sub-tick still sucks though
    I didn’t mention cheaters because I felt the video was already too long, but yeah they are a problem for sure

      Well, CS:GO could have been CS 2 after CS 1.6. The original creator of CS, Minh Le, started working on a CS sequel that included features like vehicle gameplay, and other shit that modern games have (in 2007 btw). However, Valve canceled this project in 2009 (later the elements were copied by some third party company to make the game "Tactical Intervention"). Instead, they released CS: Source, which led to a division in the CS community. Additionally, Valve hired a studio to create a CS: Source port for consoles, CSGO.
      However, halfway through CS:GO's development, Valve recognized the opportunity to unify both the 1.6 and Source player bases and decided to develop CS:GO themselves. If Valve had initiated the CS:GO project in-house from the beginning without involving the external studio, it's likely they would have named it CS 2. Now with CSGO moving to Source 2 they prolly thot this was the perfect oppurtunity. to rename Cs back to Cs2.
      TL;DR: CSGO was Cs2 all along

    • @brokendoop
      @brokendoop Před 7 měsíci +4

      Not really, mechanically it plays practically the same, changing a few things like the length of matches and adding loadouts doesn't redefine the core mechanics, the gunplay, movement, team play and core functionality of gamemodes are exactly the same as CSGO. Mechanically it's just CSGO with some tweaks. And most of the content missing which for some reason isn't the first thing people bring up about cs2.

    I think CS2 is less demanding on hardware for 2023 standards than CS GO was in 2012. The new engine also scales better, though they need to address some stutter issues.
    However when CS GO came out it did not replace CS 1.6 or CS Source. Hence the complaints.

      Hi bro, in regards to the graphics I'd like to give my unit as an example - Nvidia GT 730 (2GB VRAM), 16GB RAM and an i3-7100.. Yes this isn't cutting edge but going from being able to play CSGO on high to not being able to get past 13fps at the lowest setting with severely reduced resolution in CS2 is simply bs.
      Valve has excluded tens of thousands of people with these requirements and we're mostly better off playing Valorant impeccably at the highest settings than bearing with this shit for the sake of hyperrealistic water and glass physics.

    I am guessing that they've redone the latency compensation - this is where the server tries to predict where the characters were on your screen at the time the attack command was sent. This is HARD to do, and CS:GO (afaik) just said hell with it and let the clients say what was visible (the client bundles the attack command with each other characters' timecode the client was seeing, since you see others' movements as they WERE), which made it really easy to make backtrack cheats.

    About replacing the game, it is also about maintenance cost. Where I think Valve has gone right is that the development costs seems more sustainable for the player base than e.g. what Blizzard has tried to do. Competitive games are _very_ different from big selling exciting games, so keeping people working on the game is integral to its future for all the players.

      ​@@kel_skibefore this feature I hated CS shooting. CS is almost as old as Quake but while in Quake you see your crosshair, you know where will be the rail or shaft. In CS you had to shoot into some weird invisible crosshair which only sometimes align with actual one and I hated it. You can have very jumpy and fierce recoil but I want to see where my bullet will go, one of the reasons why I like Rainbow Six Siege shooting. Now with this feature in CS2 (which apparently was a thing in GO but as console command and only with sv_cheats) I can now kill people without spending hours of playtime shooting blank wall in lobby with every gun just to have vague understanding of pattern of them. Negev laser beam is goat with this feature btw. Some people can call it "casualizing" but it's just a norm to understand where you gun will shoot

  • @turn1p
    @turn1p Před 7 měsíci +2

    Im sorry but i couldnt disagree more with your view on subtick. It’s just not correct even. Subtick is not the issue, the netcode isnt either. It’s the fact that the gun animations are not ALSO subtick, and that now the game favors people with lower ping increasing peakers advantage. Awps are significantly more powerful, you have to actually be able to counterstrafe, and recoil is a bit harder because of this. Whatever it may be atleast it’s not the completely unplayable crap csgo was running with while i wait 3000 years for my shot to be registered when a tick happened.

    The problem with the requirements is that they don't take into account if you want to play the game with "Competitive" FPS. I think they only tested for 60fps, which is not enough for a game like CS. I for example have an old but respectable 5 year old PC, way above the requirements, and it's hard to reach 144fps on some maps, borderline impossible if there are smokes, mollies, and multiple enemies on the screen. There also seems to be a giant dip of 10-20 FPS when you're shooting/spraying. Taking this into account, I estimate that atleast 30% of the player base in this boat.
    CSGO was supposedly unable to use multithreading properly, so I was hoping source 2 would take better advantage of my CPU, even if I had to turn down the fancy visuals. Now it seems I'm CPU bottlenecked, down to 90fps at times, with 50% usage. FSR does literally nothing but destroy visual clarity for no FPS benefit. Something just isn't adding up.

    the "what you see is what you get" thing comes apart when you realize someone with a better connection will have faster sub tick updates, and since their mouse movements are on a different sub tick than the rest of them, they literally have better aim just for the quality of their connection, even if just by a few ms. it only takes a second to consider the magnitude of issues that comes with that. i wouldnt be surprised if they never considered that since they all probably played on the same server as each other during development, negating that issue. valve, pls fix. they should have just added 128 tick and called it a day, and im sure it would be a very hard thing for them to drop sub tick and just do that instead, as they have already flaunted it as a better system than regular tick servers. it may work on lan, but once u factor in variables in internet connections and different systems, it begins to fall apart.
