"Operation Tomorrow, Acquired Origins 2."
This rotten meme, engraved in the DNA of CS players, must become a real force.
In the early hours of the morning, Valve officially announced Counter-Strike CS 2.
Since the release of the Origin 2 engine in 2015, there has been constant news that the CS will be replaced.
After waiting for 8 years, my dream finally came true.
According to the official, CS 2 is currently a limited edition test, and the CS:GO will be fully transitioned to CS 2 by this summer.
It is estimated that Valve also wants to quickly throw away the name CS:GO.
After the official announcement, the name of social media was directly changed to "CS2".
Spicy, what's updated with CS 2?
According to the official promotional video, there are three relatively heavy updates.
The rendering effect has been fully upgraded
Because of the change of the Origin 2 engine, CS 2 has greatly improved the game's lighting and shadow performance and map rendering.
Like light and shadow, materials, etc., they are all rebuilt from scratch.
Direct comparison:
There are also various character and gun model displays, which will also be improved with the new engine.
There are also particle effects, explosion effects, gunfire, and more, which have also been remastered with the addition of the Origin 2 engine.
Although the rendering effect has been upgraded, the gameplay and details of the map have not changed.
The technique you've honed for years will work just as well as CS 2.
Smoke bombs overhauled
In CS 2, smoke bombs explode to interact with the environment.
For example, when a narrow space explodes, the smoke expands more naturally.
Coupled with the new lighting rendering, it is much stronger than the old version.
In addition, when the player fires, throws mines, etc., it will have an impact on the smoke.
In the future, the game of one-way smoke may not be so smart.
Sub-tick delay compensation system
Simply put, it is an upgrade for the refresh rate of the server.
After the update, the player's movement, design, throwing and other operations will not be affected by the refresh rate.
In addition to the three highlights, CS 2 has other small details updated, you can pay attention to the official follow-up announcement.
This official announcement has indeed blown up many old players.
But the one who laughs the most may be the uncle...
Have a small partner who got the test qualification to squeak and make me envious?
