Counter Strike New Revealed

Valve finally announced Counter Strike New after weeks of rumors. It's an update to CS:GO that will bring the game onto the Source 2 engine and make some significant visual changes.

It also comes with responsive smoke grenades and sub-tick updates for servers. It's made a lot of armchair gamers crazy, but it looks like an upgrade for the average player.

Smokes

Counter Strike New has a huge update that will change the way smokes function in the game. The new changes are being referred to as responsive smokes and will be a significant game changer. Smokes will expand to fill in spaces and move across the map in a variety of ways. They will also respond to the lighting of the games, making them appear more realistic. In addition to these new features, smokes are now be capable of interacting with game events and will offer new tactical possibilities. Bullets, for example, will push smoke in order to temporarily clear the sightlines. Hex grenade blasts can also disperse smoke occlusion.

Smokes will be more dynamic in the game. In previous iterations, smokes were a fixed form that was limited in terms of how far they could go and the amount of vision it blocked. But, the new smokes will expand to cover the space they're in and take up more of the player's view when they are within it. This is a significant improvement that will make the game more dynamic and will give both teams the same level of visibility.

Smokes also react to light, weapons, and environment in the world space. This will make the smoke feel more realistic and allow players to use it in different ways to gain an advantage over their opponents. This is especially beneficial in the chaotic games that will take place on every map.

Smokes are no longer a one-way. This was a major issue in CSGO as it allowed players to see the location of their opponent from behind the smoke. Twistzz is a well-known CS:GO pro, says that the new system is a major improvement for Case spectrum competitive CS2 and makes it fairer for both teams.

Other minor enhancements include adjusting the position of smoke particles to prevent seeing through edges and updating spectators' smoke overlay visuals to match their camera's position. The expiration time of smokes was updated to match the visuals displayed on screen.

Loadouts

The players of CS:GO are able to modify their weapon selection prior to the start of every game. The new loadout system allows the players to choose weapons that fit their style of play and team strategies. The new system also adds new tactical depth to the game, because players must balance power and utility.

In addition to the new loadouts In addition to the new loadouts CS: GO update includes a number of other improvements and modifications. Most important, the purchase menu has been completely revamped. The old buy wheel has been replaced with a customizable grid that shows all available purchase options simultaneously. The grid has been populated with five pistols and five "mid-tier" weapons such as submachine guns and shotguns, and five rifles and carbines.

The new system is simple to use and will give players greater control over their weapon selection. It will let them choose the weapon that best fits their style of play, Case Shadow team strategy and try out different combinations. It will also enable players to test their abilities against other players' loadouts, and see how they compare.

While many players appreciate the added flexibility, case Shadow others have complained about it deviating from the fundamental premise of Counter-Strike. They have also raised concerns over how it will impact map-specific loadouts and skins of agents based on visibility.

However, despite these criticisms However, it is important to note that the new loadout system is in its infancy, and will go through more thorough testing over the next few months. Some of these issues might be addressed in future updates. It is crucial to stay updated for more details.

Workshop Tools are also included in the update, and can be enabled from the settings menu. This allows community contributors to design weapon finishes and stickers, as and maps. In addition the update will live ban players who break the VAC rules during matches.

The new CS: GO update is expected to be released later this esports 2014 summer case. Players can check out the full list of features and upgrades by visiting the official CS: GO site.

Sub-Tick Updates

The server updates the world of Counter-Strike in small intervals of time, referred to as ticks. Valve wants to ensure that CS: GO is fast and smooth. The smallest delay can impact the accuracy of a shot. A new video shows the biggest improvements made to the game, which is also known as sub tick updates.

Instead of the 64-tick update that occurs every millisecond, CS: Go will now be able use sub-ticks (or as Valve calls them, "micro-ticks") to communicate with the server. The client will keep track of each of these tiny increments and send them to the server. The server will then transmit the updated game state back to players. The servers will know when you shot, jumped, or peeked.

Although a minute-long video may not enough to cover everything, the video explains that every piece of data sent by a client has an associated time stamp. The server will gather all the data from all players in chronological order before sending it back. According to the video, a CS: GO server will now be able to transmit more than twice the information as a 64-tick server.

This means that even when the tick rate of the game is increased to 128 Hz, it can still handle your commands immediately. Micro-tick updates can also reduce the time it takes to input by ensuring that the server responds to your actions without delays or glitches.

Valve's technical enhancements to the game are just the beginning. The company is implementing dynamic smoke and particle systems to improve how smoke interacts with the surrounding, and it's updating all maps with high-resolution textures, lighting, and models. All CS weapons and cosmetics will also be updated with Source 2 tools and features.

Maps

The next update for Counter Strike New brings new maps and a few classics with facelifts. These updates are currently being tested as part of a limited-test beta. The first set of maps includes touchstone and upgrade maps that won't see major changes to gameplay, while others have been revamped or rebuilt using the latest Source 2 tools.

One of them is Overpass has been revamped to take advantage of the new engine's unified lighting system. The map's eerie underground has been filled with daylight, making it more spacious and less crowded. Smoke grenades are now expanding dynamically in order to fill in spaces, and interact with the light.

Italy is another map that has been reworked. Its lighting, texture, and structure have all been greatly improved. The new version is also more balanced than its predecessor which was heavily CT-oriented. Fans can anticipate a few more classics, such as Aztec and Militia which will be updated in the near future.

Although many of these maps are accessible in other modes, they're no longer added to the competitive map pool. The only exception is Train which has been removed from Active Duty and will continue to be played in tournaments. Valve hasn't yet decided if the other maps removed from the pool will be added back.

One of the most controversial updates is one designed by Helsingin Sanomat, Finland's national newspaper. The newspaper has been active in its critique of Russia's actions in Ukraine. This map is based on the war-torn Donetsk. The map is called de_voyna, and contains a range of references to the war.

The developer will release a set Source 2 Tools for map makers in the near future. This will include features such as improved lighting and character read as well as physically-based rendering that creates realistic textures, materials, and reflections. It will also make real-world objects, such as windows and doors, easier to implement. The update will be released sometime this summer.
