Watch the full comparison between CS2 and CS:GO! ukposts.info/have/v-deo/aWBmh4CvhWyruoE.html

After 12 years, now the CS2 finally looks like BF3 but without destructible buildings

The bullets moving the smoke cloud was pretty impressive.

Saw everything as a great improvement! My onlyyyyy small itch is with the Bomb detonation in CS2, visually the explosion looks nice, but it doesn't feel as destructive as csgo where there's a ton of black smoke, the terrain and camera shakes. If they could add some more to it, or even have assets break or move with the explosion, it'd be amazing. But everything else was very stellar, a well needed improvement to visuals and added game features/mechanics!

Fun Fact: The liquid in the Molotov is entirely an optical illusion. Valvə didn't incorporate physics or any actual liquid inside the bottle. Instead, they developed a highly sophisticated shader system for this particular bottle to achieve a shiny, realistic appearance. WOW!

The more I play CS2 the more I keep thinking: “Man, I wish L4D2 was like this.” This will be revolutionary.

6:41 Valve did the exact same thing to Portal 2, 12 years ago, with the light panels. It's basically an image that moves according to the camera position, to look like it's a 3D object, and this optimizes the game a lot.

4:15 as someone who has done unity shader dev stuff, this is pretty damn cool. I think the smoke is volumetric and not just a texture, but getting it to block out the sun is cool. I'm also curious if it adds to the shadow map to cast shadows. I'd imagine that would be quite a performance hit though, maybe not if someone smart made it lol. These effects with smoke are really "easy" with raytracing rendering but not so much with rasterization.

its funny that even in cs2, the c4 explosion isnt any better than source's

For me cs2 it's happier to look at and could be a huge quality improvement for esport viewers.

It's not so much a graphical masterpiece but a physicals and lighting rework that's impressive. I just hope it runs as well.

Wow! The granates combinating and bullets-smoke combination give SO MUCH strategic game variations! Im so impressed!

I kinda dislike that the dead bodies and the burnt ground disappear soon after appearing in CS2. They should stay there permanently until the end of the round like destroyed doors and windows. It lets other players know there was a fight there not so long ago so they can assume an enemy is still nearby. Also makes the map look cooler. The C4 bomb should also blow up and destroy things around it like in CSS

The bending of the skin when there is a bullet hole is insane

It's going to be interesting to see how pro's use and adapt to new interactions with things like sound design and smoke physics

I love the quality and how you care for nearest details like 3D bullet holes etc. But I have a question: will there be story about the maps, missions and terrorist and counter-terrorist squads?

Only thing you missed was the rag doll differences when you kill an enemy

9:37 look at that right leg speaking of legs, it would have been cool to show off the IK (inverse kinematics) on legs, where they realistically adjust to standing on sloped surfaces like ramps

its pretty beautiful all the changes they have made...even the small ones most people wouldn't notice that much they still puht detail in it withpout chaning the "game" as most developers would. Keeping it OG is the way to go with making updates to graphics and damage mods...amazing. As playing Counter Strike since 2002 on 1.6, and even playing the 1.5beta I can say its come a long long way, and its awesome to see how its evolved :) Always will be my # 1 in my books!!! The smoke effects for CS2 were quite pretty I do say so myself, the way the explosions cleared the smoke was awesome. As well as the bullets clearing a hole, was a great addition! The soccer ball made me laugh...I always try to get a match going In game and see how many people join in! Cant wait....Cheers my dudes and dude-ettes !

5:25 trypophobia lol

6:43 the downside of parallax occlusion

i love how satisfying seeing the blood splatter after getting a kill in csgo was and now its even better im so excited

That follow recoil feature will be the game changer

Wow, the improvements in lighting, modeling, particle effects, and texturing are incredible! It's great to see that the CS:GO team is continuing to innovate and push the boundaries of what's possible in the game. I can't wait to try out CS:GO 2 and see all of these amazing improvements in action. Keep up the great work!

Your videos are so awesome, you put so much effort into them. Long time sub here, please keep 'em coming!

Looks like CS2 will be a massive improvement. I really like how the crosshair follows the recoil; that's the best way to simulate controlling a full-auto firearm in a game.

The audio engine improvements in CS2 is amazing

HS Top, the OG Channel. been watching since old L4d2 top 10 hunter plays when I was like 13, now watching CSGO vs CS2 and im 23. crazy

"Follow recoil" is a game changer! especially for players who struggle to learn the patterns

Excited for the new physics engine. Its actually refreshing to see props and ragdolls move differently than I’ve gotten used to.

Last seconds: hippyty stabby stab

I'm going to use this video as a template to follow. I'm making an FPS game and this is a great reference video.

Please valve, tf2 exist too. Just love us the way you love this game.

What Valve Thinks we want in cs2 Mechanism,Gameplay What we want Oo water on Molotov and legs

5:13 the zombies in and headcrabs in HL2 had this jiggle physics

The way how smoke works in CS2 looks so interesting! Shooting and using grenades to fan away the smoke could change how we play CS.

2:16 visual bugs on HE explosion?

Y'know, the first L4D Game did the "seeing your feet" thing first, and that game was from *2008.* But hey, nice to see you are able to do it in the recent CS2.

Parallax bullet holes and unique wound decals. I like this a lot

That's kinda cool to see that you can actually end up spreading the fire by being in the molotov and running out of it

10:56 my favorite part of the whole video is this

0:12 Foot was also in l4d but for some reason l4d2 was also removed.

9 years for something that can be done in one update 😭😭

0:50 When your cocktail turns into bud light 😄

Sensacional. Pensaram em todos os detalhes. Incrível ver essa evolução que tivemos desde da época do 1.6 onde eu vivia na Lan-house jogando fy_snow, poolday, de_inferno, assault, de_dust2 com a galera kkkkk'

we should get skins for molotovs (bottle skin to be exact), like real life counterparts, rare wine/tequila/whiskey bottles etc

the ending comparison was a nice touch lol

I absolutely love that they keep the 1.6 voice prompts still ❤👍

5:35 Looks like a death scene from 2012-2017 CS:GO. I think they tried to make CS2 kind of rhyme with other Counter-Strike games.

High quality content as always, keep it up ❤!!

the nade cam thing is hella awesome

0:15 T-BAG is realistic now

9:37 his right foot is dying

5:30 this sh!t is cursed

0:11 i love that gabe said that

Ladies and gentlemen, the game has leveled up.

The Follow Recoil option looks fun! I remember seeing this system in Blacklight Retribution and wondering why no other FPS employs it.

8:32 I've been wating this feature for ages

1:13 Advertisment jumpscare

IMO, the way the right foot bends when planting is the best part about CS2 (9:37)

I hope overtime they beef up the weapon animations, it doesn't have to be super detailed like tarkov and mw2 but a nice glowup would be awesome while keeping it familiar

8:38 I'm thinking that this follow recoil mechanic will really do something...

the explosions must be like battlefield games

8:49 Bullets leaving a trail is pretty big, that means that players exiting the tunnel from the left here can see the trails and attack the sniper on the right rather than getting ambushed

6:48 Oh wow I remember seeing that in HL2 Beta, didn't know it was used on CSGO

the pros are complaining about the flash noise in cs2 and that's for a good reason, leave it like in csgo

It seems that whilst the Bullet decals are much improved, that's not actually new geometry. As seen from the corner shot, it's Parallax Mapping. A good example of parallax mapping are the interiors in Spiderman PS4, whilst they are not actually modelled, they appear so.

Finally after all these years, the trees and mesh move in the wind for the first time in a valve game.

0:51 I hope they give a bit animation when holding like moving their hand a bit the weapon or hand, i mean human always moving.

Very well explained comparison 🙌🏻

Being able to disapate smoke with bullets and grenades is really cool.

Is the follow recoil option good? Difficult spraying was an appeal to me

It would be nice if there was an animation when the c4 is deactivating, that you can see that he is holding the deactivator with one hand, and the other on the weapon.

Source 2 games will never escape the glory of the HL:A bottle shader

"game of the year" It's litterally the same thing bro 😭

having a "follow recoil" option is game changing

I swear, as much as Valve improves CS2.... HS also keeps on improving these type of quality content videos. Kudos!

Are you using an old update? The smokes looks weird just like on release of the limited test, I believe they look as intended now, without those random huge dark parts in the smoke.

As someone who don't play CS, and though CS2 was just a new engine and thats it, Im impressed with the smoke effects!

but you gotta love how "bomb has been planted" hasnt been changed. and i think its iconic

One thing worries me, the smoke. Yes, yes I know that this depends on the situation and playstyle, but with this update, they have effectively killed the ninja defuse.

2:55 i guess this is some balancing reason, but why return dissipated smoke back? I'd at least imagine it'd "come back" from the smoke grenade, the center of it, not just accumilate as if some dark force gathering from outside source... they need to change that, either completely gone, like how smoke clears fire, so would grenade "destroy" smoke grenade, or so that smoke actually comes out of the grenade after this, and not just coming back out of the oblivion.

I'm not even a CS fan, but those smoke effects and interactions are fucking awesome. I can also see new tactics being used with this new system.

Used to play cs1.5 and 1.6 back in the day amazes me it’s still going.

cs2 explosions make me want to puke

0:33 that sounds like Minecraft ngl😂

that smoke grenade with bullet holes is gonna be a game changer

how are the hitboxes? does my bullets hit the intended target or is it still random?

It looks great but with the Zeus electric effect and the fireball from the HE grenade I’m worried this will lead to the game becoming super cartoony in the future. GO, Source and 1.6 had a very gritty feel to them that looks to be most likely on the way out.

8:34 follow recoil will be a bit of a game changer for managing recoil

9:33 Ich bin froh das Valve die alte Voice von CS 1.6 in Counter Strike 2 drin gelassen hat. Ich mag die Spielereihe, ich spiele das Spiel nun schon seit Anfang 2018, spiele sowohl Counter Strike 1.6, Counter Strike Condition Zero, Counter Strike Source als auch Counter Strike Global Offensive....und icv liebe all diese spiele. Ich muss mich unbedingt an Counter Strike 2 hera wagen. Klasse! Danke für das Video! 9:33 I'm glad that Valve left the old voice from CS 1.6 in Counter Strike 2. I like the game series, I've been playing the game since the beginning of 2018, playing Counter Strike 1.6, Counter Strike Condition Zero, Counter Strike Source and Counter Strike Global Offensive... and I love all of these games. I definitely have to try Counter Strike 2. Class! Thanks for the video!

the more realistic blood in cs2 is lowkey scary 😭

Фейковые углубления от пуль прямо из фиара 2005 года, вот это эволюция

I don't even play CS:GO or CS2 but it was fun to see the improvements!

Wow this game bring back my momories, CS is my first computer game

When the bomb explodes it should have a blast wave :D Maybe some shuttered windows and the sign in A should blow off or something 😄

I liked more of the CS-GO's c4 explosion... And also the ball sound was better.

fun fact about molotov’s detail: you can see there’s gas oli water moving

lighting on that bottle is so realistic it triggered my alcoholic urges

Fun fact : For half-life Alex, there was a dude dedicated to making the water physics for bottles/cups, that code is probably reproduced/reused in cs2
