Counter-Strike 2

Counter-Strike 2: From Past To Present



Counter-Strike 2 will be real in 2003.

In this video, we go back and forth in time and look at a bunch of Counter-Strike maps. Source 2 might not feel like a big update compared to CSGO’s Source 1 implementation, but the devil is in the details.

Smash that like button and if this video gets 2 likes I’ll drink bleach live on camera.

  1. CS2 would be a good looking game if we were still in 2015. It's time to admit Source needs a major internal rewrite, especially everything related to the rendering and presenting scenes.

  2. God damn this game is absolutely beautiful, my only problem is some of the weapon and character skins don’t fit the style very well

  3. Something feels off with the lighting in CS2.
    I can't quite put my finger on it and called it "Overwatch-like" feels more of an insult than a comparison.
    Everything feels too "bright"?

  4. 1:28 CS2 still primarily uses baked lighting, especially for indirect bounced light. There are light sources that act as partially-dynamic lights, since they draw dynamic shadows for players and non-static objects, but will render baked shadows for everything else.

  5. 3:07 I always like these kinds of stuff where buildings are so huge when you're on a limited/closed area. It helps in selling the feeling that there is actually something in the distance that you just can't see.

  6. mmmm counter strike makes me realize i like day of defeat more. day of defeat on source 2 would be great

  7. Rest In Peace Rad clone #561. I feel like it should be a factory setting in them to not mention half life 3 but oh well

  8. The reason you find CS2 fun compared to CSGO is probably because of hackers.

  9. tbh, i'm sure you can recreate those cs2 maps in goldsrc and source. you just have to circumvent the obvious limits with some creativity, but it's more than doable.

  10. I mean CS2 is a pretty good sign that a HL3 could come within maybe 10 years. They now have a non-vr fps in source 2 after all and that could easily be built off of.

  11. Technically there is a source 2 half life game 🤓

    Although according to trademark inquiries from valve it seems they're working on a new half life universe game called Neon Prime. Prolly source 2.

  12. "Counter Strike innovates more through it's aesthetics than radical gameplay changes."
    – The Act Man

  13. Idk if someone has asked this before, but what are the songs playing in the background in your videos?

  14. Afaik you can still play CS:GO by selecting "demo viewer" in the betas tab of the game properties on Steam. The Matchmaking servers are offline, of course, but you can still host your own games.

  15. I think my favorite CS game would Be CS Source, just because of the old-school mid 2000s source feel. But CS2 is a strong number 2 for me

  16. Unlike others, personally I'm not fond about how CS has evolved since CSGO, and as a result the CS2 overhaul leaves me cold, to say the least. I feel like it's so far removed from what made CS well, CS, specifically its strong community output in the form of maps and server mods, that it may as well be called something else now. And also less fun, thanks to all the gameplay tweaks it received thoughout the years, I got more enjoyment out of it back in its Beta days, and shortly after launch. So CS2, as all multiplayer games nowadays, is a pass for me. I'd much rather look forward to whatever happens to CSCO instead.

  17. People need to understand Half – Life aint somekinda "cod or bf" type franchise… Half – Life is the game what brings something new-like-NEW to the gameing…..

  18. Evolution is visible between CS and CS2. But that's very obvious since there is a big gap in time.

  19. Nice video Mr.Hazard but i would like to ask you one question. What is your rank in premier ?

  20. We just know Counter Strike 3 will never exist now…
    To think we could have avoided numbers in this franchise well screw it I guess.

  21. As much as I agree with Counter strike 2 being pretty dang good… I still find it kinda hypocritic that Overwatch did the somewhat the same thing and got hate for it. Like yeah, Overwatch 2 is a shit game in every aspect and deserves it, did they really have to remove GO? Like the vid said, some people with lower end GPUs are going to have a problem.
