Steam news update - CS Source update
Posted by Elanzer - 10 comments
    Soon, we'll be releasing the first in a series of updates to Counter-Strike: Source which will be focused on moving the core Counter-Strike gameplay forward.

    The first update will include an updated version of the map Train, which will feature an HDR lighting pass, some minor layout changes, and a number of small bugfixes.

    The second facet of this release will be a completely reworked radar system. There will be a significant change to the aesthetics of the radar, but there are also some fairly significant gameplay ramifications to the new system. One example: when you look directly at an enemy for a long enough time for their name to appear on your screen, everyone on your team will be able to see that enemy in the radar. We're planning on releasing this first update in about two weeks.

I thought the game was already good enough. Train was already good looking, and the radar seemed perfect.

Yea, the radar is gonna be annoying I think and take a lot of the surprise and fun outta the game. Train was fine...Valve should work on other things to better the game like fixing the freakin' hostages already. They're still retarded!!!

Counter-strike: source, a graphically enhanced 1.6...or not.

a new map would be better, and for the radar, sounds promising.

Remember that this is the first of several updates, hostages and new maps could come as well.

Well I will have to play with the Radar before I say anything about it. Mods to train arnt needed but I will have to look at them too. What I think is that Valve should make like 4 new maps with a new game type or something, like CTF would be fun.
