There are a few minor alterations, mainly to make for quick and safe passage from one part of the map to the other without the annoyance of having to expose yourself (in the least naked way possible) to the enemy. The main structures and passageways are still available and the main avenues for long shots are still an important part of learning how to play in Dust. The example given in the screenshots and in the video is Dust and it remains largely unchanged. It seems like an obvious thing to say, but Counter-Strike: Global Offensive really does take the series to a whole new level visually and, knowing Valve, it’ll probably look at least competitive for the next five-ten years. This lived-in feel is aided by posters and graffiti adorning every wall. Buildings look aged and damaged by war – a huge positive when considering how “clean” Source looked. Again, colours are bright, textures are superb.
Granted, these games came out the best part of a decade apart and so comparing them is hardly fair, but for the sake of this article I’ll list the latest offering’s plus points. Global Offensive is in another league entirely. Lighting effects can be a little disappointing, especially when you enter buildings or tunnels, but for the most part it has been well maintained.įind out more on Counter Strike Global Offensive in our review->
The textures seem pretty good (until you look too closely), the colours are bright – you can tell what everything is and then some. considerably.Īs you’ll see in the screenshots accompanying this article and in the video as well, Counter-Strike: Source is anything but ugly. Considering the graphical variation between those titles, it shows that – visually – the engine has evolved quite naturally, offering something familiar while updating the textures etc. First playable by the general public with Counter-Strike: Source in 2004, it has since been used to power a myriad of games, not least Valve favourites like Half-Life 2, Left 4 Dead and Portal 2. The source engine has held up rather well. This week’s blog post is designed to highlight just some of the differences we’ve found as we’ve explored Global Offensive. There are differences though, both graphically and in terms of the way the game is played.
