interesting how many teams will get invite..

2012-08-16 15:03

It's cool to have events popping up but I wish Valve would get their act together and get a working spectator system for the game. HLTV had the stupid jumps due to slow motion (I suppose) and sourceTV was extremely laggy and terrible overall at least for me. Also I hope that some of the maps will be remade since I feel current versions of maps like d2 are way too small in some areas. Of course many of the maps resemble their CS:S counterparts but I feel they should be changed and made more 1.6 scale to improve gameplay.

Totally agree on your first point, Valve pioneered with HLTV, but then left it to rot, they should really do a proper system for CS:GO.

And then have less viewers on the streams?

it depends on how you view it, if you could advertise in-game there would be no need for streams. streams will always be crap for FPS games anyways.

Players from big orgs are required to stream their games.

POV streams are cool but I'm talking about 5vs5 broadcasting, its much better watching games in-game not via stream, you miss so much action on the streams.

valve could implement something like their dota2 spec system. their autodirector is on a delay and switches to a certain POV a few seconds before a kill. if they can get something similar to work for GO then it would be awesome

That's what they are doing for CSGO, implementing the DoTA2 spectator mode!

Well it is fine that you wish to live in a fantasy world where CS 1.6 is still included in all major events, but that isn't the real world, if we do not expand to cover other games we shut down the site, it is simple as that. By covering CS:GO we can also keep covering the CS 1.6 events that may popup. So accept it, or find another CS 1.6 coverage site.

2012-08-16 15:42

you must be patient against us who support CS1.6, regardless what we writing here. Almost 65K people followed competitive CS scene, and still follow. Some one is part of this site only because of CS1.6 almost 4-5 years, and you would banned him because he wrote "Fuck CS:GO"? But if i was instead of you, i would closed this site. Maybe with covering CS:GO, HLTV.org will attract new people who plays COD, Source, teamFortress and others game, because all of it, has in CS:GO.. But one remember, HLTV.org with CS:GO will never be as HLTV.org with CS 1.6. Now with your procedure you made site full with hating, instead site of loved game, CS1.6 boys versus CS:GO,Source boys. I respect your labor about Filtering, its vain, to taking out CS1.6 boys of CS:GO boys, or conversely. Now for example, you will go to cover CS:GO event in Inferno Online, Sweden. Why you(hltv.org) dont go in America? To cover one of the big tournaments there, WCG Pan-America which feature CS1.6? That is not HLTV.org who i met years back. youtube.com/watch?v=r_QAEXlDrIY

yeah first few hours I thought it was horrible, but now it feels a little better, but the movement is whats really annoying imo. they try to make it realistic like a real human moves, but its boring and in a computer game it doesnt have to feel real.

The movement was horrible a few months back. Now I feel it's a bit slower than CS 1.6 and of course the impact of jumping is much greater but I don't think it's that bad. Much more precise than before. The recoil & sound however, is horrible ha ha

2012-08-16 15:37

if you played the beta last year.. movement is about 100 times better. still needs some improvements
