I don't care when it will be out just release it

1.6 4ever and evah !

w00t O_O

LOL , gj :D

I dont know what to say, just OMG :O

OMG, GL!

O_O

please be true! :S

As far as i can see, it states:
"Coming in 2011" ?

I don't care. I'll be playing 1.6 cus this game is stylish, oldschool and still fashionable.

i know what to say , change the damn graphics . i hate those details in cs 1.6 ^^

1.6 > all

Counter-Strike 1.6 will always be the number1..

I will always keep playing cs 1.6, but I have to try the new version :D

unless it has better graphics than sauce and gameplay of 1.6 the game is destined to fail

CS 1.6 > ALL

I think the fact that it's called cs 2 shows that it has more relation with 1.6

how two different companys, such as valve and the other dudes, whom i dont know the name, alex garfield's team or whatever that is, use the same name for two games? one of them shouldnt be use the name Counter-Strike, or isnt cs a registered mark?:s

i even got my self confused... :)

ridiculous..

Whether it happens or not I am so not looking forward to it either way. "New CSS Beta" is all I should have to say. If the trend continues then CS2 will just be a more pub-friendly game than CSS was. I know Team Fortress 2 could be an argument to that but at least Valve actually listened to the competitive TF2 community when the game was still relatively new and I doubt they will do that for CS2.

probably gonna fail nothing can replace cs 1.6
like all those cheap ass fail games like CS online and promod and other shit.
stop trying to come out of something else.
you spend time and money on something that will not catch on.
i sure hope its fake ...

no thanks, 1.6 always

fake..

Some say Valve canceled the Portal 2 announcement at the E3 because of a possible Orange Box 2 surprise, which may include CS 2, Portal 2, TF 3 (?), L4D 3 (?), HL:Ep.3 (?), but i personally think it's about that DOTA like game being developed by Valve and that Icefrog guy. Let's see.

either absolute fail or fake....

Amazes me how people can judge a game before its even confirmed or released ;p

just lol

frak yeah plz!!!!

fake

fake yes.

fake

If it's not fake it will just fail like Condition Zero and Source..

Does C.S ProMod complete??
How long whas i a sleep ??

Why do they still try to recreate a game that in my opinion is Fine, and continues to gather Players all over the world???

WHY GOD WHY??? :D

I would like to see something similar to CS Promod but with original CS 1.6 physic and recoil (Yes, I think in CSP it's a bit different).

Or the better one: SOURCE with shooting/spamming/scanning (whatever u call it) through walls <3

another mistake that will split the scene ever more than it is now...

source failed, so they they'll make 2.0 cuz it sounds good

Valve could make more games, but it'll never be as popular as 1.6 now..

lol.

LIVE COUNTER STRIKE LIVE! HAHHAHA :)

buying it when it comes... :)

i think that counter strike 2 is essential,for a very long time that people are complaining about their "counter strike recoil bug",mainly because of network problems,its time to update the netcode imo :)

/v/ ftw

Haven't Valve cancelled their E3-presentation?

Before doing a counter strike 2 they should firstly correct 1.6 bugs ...

I still think it won't happen, it's a dead end like cs promod...

illuminati

How bout CS 2.0 with fixed bugs and some new perks.
gief me a working HLTV Autodirector and I'll be happy-.-

Post edited 2010-06-11 14:35:18

probably not true considering they just had a huge counter strike source update planned

They have canned the entire presentasjon, so I doubt xD

CS1.6 is great!~~~~~
noone can replaces CS1.6

im unconvinced that this will be CS2, and if it is I think it could be bad news for the competative side of cs. the problem with cs, both source and 1.6 is that the communities are so stubborn and refuse ever move to an updated game, or even support an attempt such as promod. if you through cs2 into the mix we're just going to be left with 3 slightly smaller communities than we have now, and the smaller the communities get, the less reason for tournament holders to support our games

MEGATON

o No
cs 1.6 best!!!!!

FAIL

It's not CS 2 , it's the Source engine 2.

Or it's true, one thing i have notice in the last year is that you can't hide a project anymore, there is always some one who leaks something and maybe this screenshot is true, maybe we will se a CS 2 but maybe it won't be like as good as 1.6 .

Even if it is CS 2, guys we all know how VALVe is they announced HL2 EP 3 until today we haven't heard from him, they announced Portal 2 and it was delayed.

www.vg247.com/2010/06/08/rumor-valves-e3-surprise-is-source-engine-2/

HL3 is coming, so it's very possible to have cs2

:)

cs 1.6 always

mb they just moving CSPromod to Orange box?
http://cspromod.com/ ^^

I don't see the point in making these games since I think 1.6 is perfectly fine and a lot of people LOVE it..

I don't want it to be a new CS because I'm afraid people will start playing it and I hate changing games like that, but I'd have to if the competitive side would transfer to "CS2". -.-

hmmmm.....will be nice to see how it is....

another fail game like source and like promod will be

1.6 forever.

FFFUUU :X

fake

no one will play it, cs 1.6 will stay anyway.

No plz!!! nooo!!!

oh no =(

It's 100% fake. Valve already said that the surprise is Portal themed so it won't be a new game.

All those images showing up come from 4chan.

Buuu for cs 2. Cs 1.6 <3 So many good memories, best game ever made! <3

Ok it's fake, www.computerandvideogames.com/article.php?id=250562

Eeeeh, there was big news that valve had cancled this game ones back in 2008/09 or so .

"With Counter-Strike 2, there's a big question between, do we go start over from scratch and build this whole new game, do we do something that looks more like Team Fortress 2 that is rooted in the old game but has a ton of new stuff, or do we just sort of take everything that's new that we've released and put that out in a new box," remarked Lombardi.

"I think we're leaning more towards the two more radical places than just sort of rolling up the new box and reskinning the box and putting out all the new stuff."



My guess is it'll just be like CS:S-beta where they added TF2 style features.

In other words - No thanks, back to 1.6

dont judge the game..
maybe it will be just an improvement like maps and stuff, gameplay of 1.6 and grafics improvements the will be better...

cs 1.6 in <3

omg :D, but cs 1.6 <3 :/

SUUCKS!!!
1.6>all

It'll be an average replace for source/promod, but I doubt it would take over 1.6.

1.6 > all

The size of that screendump tells me it's a fake.

another fail from valve.

i only hope for the best, but we need a new game

MIRAA, there should not be a hyphen between the words "highly" and "popular" in the article. Also, canceled is spelled with only one L. Lastly, periods (and commas, too) ALWAYS, no matter what, go inside the quotation marks. I know people are going to call me a grammar hound, but I figured I'd give you a few tips to refine your writing. Keep up the good work! I always enjoy your articles.

same shit O_o

Valve already announced that the E3-surprise will be Portal-2 themed.

This isn't in any way related to Portal 2, so even though this is real, it has nothing to do whatsoever with the E3-surprise.

And it looks just as fake as duke nukem forever picture and EP3 picture.

1.6 ofc > ALL

NOT SOURCE,NOT PROMOD , NOT 2, BUT 1.6 IS WAY!

cs2 won't be announced before hl3
fake

More like Half Life 3.

I dont believe this. Valve is not going spend the time and money working on a game as old as CS/HL1. Sure you may see some minor fixes here and there, but that will be it.

1.6 > rest, i hope it will be good and not so shitty like CSS, when not i will stay in CS1.6

1.6 for life

update 1.6 netcode valve!

i think it will end op like counter-strike online... It will only be released in korea with korean language

another game for the source noobs

Well if it's Counter Strike 2.0 then STEAM will automatically update from 1.6 to 2.0

My 2 cents

CS 2.0: Modern Warfare

s0

PHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

SO FUCKING LAME,

like i said when csp came out.... if only i can find that thread huh, greedy basterds.

1.6 baby

If CS 2.0 comes out, I'm quite sure the gameplay will be like MW2 and BC2.

OMG ? NO!!! cs 1.6 forever that's all... :)

now i think its totaly fake

:E

I just jizzed! :O

Sounds Good But I love 1.6 :)

omg, nice!!!

i never leave cs 1.6! they made 1.8 and it sux SOURCE sux... Every new gets worser .. cs 1.5/1.6 forever!

good luck valve, pleasing us 1.6 fans

that would by greaTE!

if cs 2.0 keeps the same engine as 1.6 but with better graphics/bugs fixed/same maps , it wont only be good for 1.6 players but for newer gamers ;)

fake, they announce new hl2 episode :p

Just do what promod is trying to do but DONT FAIL and it may be a good game

i hope not.

I wish it was true..

lol

lol! and now what ? release a new version every year like cod? :/

So much assumption, fear and prejudice in these comments.

Chill people, chill.

why you ppls hate cs:s ??

If CS2 will be made will be a different game :) just like Brood war and Starcraft2

CS1.6 and BW 4 life !

i hope its cs 1.6 with better textures

1.6 steam 4 ever :D

fake

God no!

if it's true, valve is killing cs community... 1.6, source, 2?

GTFO

We will see...

Talks Counter-Strike 2 Potential
by Nick Breckon Mar 01, 2008 2:53pm CST tags: Counter-Strike, Counter-Strike 2, Valve
The topic of a full Counter-Strike sequel has been cautiously broached by Valve during a series of interviews with GameTrailers TV.

"We will never abandon Counter-Strike," asserted Valve director of marketing Doug Lombardi, who went on to explain why the game hasn't received a major update since the release of Counter-Strike Source in 2004.

"It's a little bit unfair to compare Counter-Strike, I think, to your classic game that's gonna have these sequels. It looks a little bit more like an MMO where it's constantly [being updated]."

Of course, even the most successful MMOs get sequels eventually, and it appears that Valve is at least tentatively working out the details of a Counter-Strike refresh.

"With Counter-Strike 2, there's a big question between, do we go start over from scratch and build this whole new game, do we do something that looks more like Team Fortress 2 that is rooted in the old game but has a ton of new stuff, or do we just sort of take everything that's new that we've released and put that out in a new box," remarked Lombardi.

"I think we're leaning more towards the two more radical places than just sort of rolling up the new box and reskinning the box and putting out all the new stuff."

But will the game truly go the way of Team Fortress and end up in the new "cartoon shooter" genre?

"Oh I doubt that," Lombardi said, laughing.

"I just don't think that [Counter-Strike 2] would be a good fit [with Half-Life Episode 3]," added Valve co-founder Gabe Newell, noting that the potential game would be a stand-alone product in his eyes.

Newell closed with a dangerous challenge: "But if I get 15,000 emails from customers in response to this interview telling me 'Of course it should be in [the next Orange Box],' then of course we'll pay attention to that."

COunTER STR!kE 2 = *gameplay : CS 1.6
*graphicmode: CS:S

FAIL

and then you need Quad cores and graphic cards with 2 GB, I pass..

If they take what made CS 1.6 great and follow Promod's steps but add in a new engine similar to BFBC2 with new sounds,new skins for the guns, sum new things but still retaining the same gameplay then they might pull it off. But if they fuck up like they did for Source by making it super n00b friendly then they will fail.

FAIL..

just fix major bugs on counter strike 1.6 / and call it 2.0 and every1 is happy lol

cs 1.6 4ever!!!!!!

yep...fix bugs,make a face lift through in a few knew competitive maps and lets go.Just dont change the 1.6 feeling....recoil teamplay movements

why not!cs 1.6 is too old now.if they want to compete with COD for the best fps,they should do an exxelent cs 2.0 not a fail like css or cz!

Yep, 1.6 for ever!
But I want to play CS 2 too. :]

fake

FUCK

letz c!!! :)

well... once we played 1.5 and then 1.6 came and everybody played 1.6. although its the most´famous FPS game of all times, I honestly think that a new version should come, one which bring a new pack of graphics without commit the old and well known 1.6`s gameplay. change for good is always a nice effort, til then 1.6 4eva :)

1.6 for ever.

PS: At the taylor whatever CSS guy

CSS is GAY and SUCKS, face it.

Peace, out.

LONG LIVE CS 1.6 !

1.6 > all

Still will already stay.

1.6
2.0 fake

Dont talk bullshit ppl. let the game release play it and then comment.. no wonder ppl moved to dota . MW , MW2 etc. do u know they have a better community than us? If this is good then it deserves to replace CS 1.6

life is 1 but cs is 1.6

CS 2.0 whit hl3 engine :D maybe some COD like multiplayer modes like capture the flag etc

1.6 forever!

I went through the whole thread..
The best thing would be to disable some map bugs.. Make better looking players / gun models.. Make better detailed map textures but with exactly same dimensions.. Add new maps like tuscan / mirage etc in the default package.. Retain recoil / gameplay etc.. Better GUI with player money etc.. Remove stupid ladder climbing / jump movements with 'shivering' legs.. Add more physics.. Like giving a headshot always throws the enemy player in opposite direction.. Keep Spams / Wallbangs but not through very thick walls and rocks that may simply seem impractical.. Retain Kreedz Jump / KZ bugs with slightly reducing their advantages (if developers / community feels like).. Disable crouch binding on scroll wheel.. Make the game security much much better so that hacks / cheats don't get any encouragement.. Add newer sounds (optional).. Improve netcode so that people with different config PCs get similar experience.. ( even if we have to make the game not playable on lower config PCs if developers feel like.. Specially for sponsors interests ).. & Call it CS 2.0.. I am sure the community would be ready to even pay extra to upgrade to CS 2.0.. Give them the option of keeping both games alive initially.. So that we can go back to 1.6 if 2.0 turns out to be a fail..
Give bots some intelligence if you feel :P
