Sliding has a key difference between the two games. In Source , there’s a slight sliding animation when landing that adds more momentum to Surfing. In contrast, CS:GO stops movement when landing complet
CS:GO predecessor Counter-Strike Source also gave players the opportunities to create their own Surf Maps. Thanks to Source improving on the game’s graphics and providing more flexible settings, a lot of Surf Maps stuck with Source . Classic options such as gimped surfing and bunnyhopping added a new level of thrill to Surf in Sour
LambdaGeneration has now come full circle, returning to its website roots but with all the modern bells and whistles. “The concept for the new community platform is the same as the original website – it’s a place to share and discover Half-Life and Valve community content,” Alex says. “I’m not a writer or journalist, the original website ran on WordPress. But I was always open to other mediums, so – in my head – turning it into a social platform felt like a natural progression.
The Glock-18 is easily one of the most versatile weapons in CS:GO. The semi-automatic firing mode makes it feel like a run-of-the-mill pistol that serves the user well in medium to long-range shooto
“Reddit feels quite outdated,” Alex tells me, “I personally find it hard to use, and I know many others do too. We wanted to build a modern site, more in line with the easy-to-use interface that people have come to expect from platforms like Twitter. The Half-Life subreddit also has a huge amount of meme content and while I enjoy a good meme, we want to appeal to serious content too. For example, last week we added a ‘Fanart of the Week’ section to our sidebar. We also noticed that a lot of people shared their work on our Discord and while it is great for discussion, it’s not intended for long-term archiving due to how quickly things get buried. We wanted to create a platform that was fully public, organized, and search engine-friendly.”
Back from LucasArts glory days, Grim Fandango is probably the best example of a graphic adventure you can find. It was amazingly stylized and had an incredible plot which hooked you right from the beginning, and is probably one of the best examples of good writing in the videogame busin
The AWP is practically the franchise mascot . This classic one-shot showstopper has been the bane of many servers, and the boon of any player that has taken the time to master it. Everyone knows and either loves or fears its trademark firing so
Surfing is best used in Surf Maps built specifically to accommodate Surfing. These maps often feature slanted walls or ramps designed for players to “strafe” or Surf in and gradually increase their velocity. This movement results in these acti
_Updated on June 7, 2021 by Ritwik Mitra: Counter-Strike Mod Download: Global Offensive stands strong to this day as one of the greatest multiplayer shooter titles anyone can pick up and play right now. The gameplay is engaging, the squad play is extremely satisfying… and the weapons are a blast to use — literally! For players who want their arsenal in the game to be as reliable as possible, we’ve refreshed this list to include more of the best guns that players can use in CS:G
While others emphasized what Valve was up to, this blog was all about what fans were doing. It started out as a website before transitioning into a Discord server and a Twitter page. Now, it’s a fully-fledged social network in the making. I’ve long followed LambdaGeneration, so I was ecstatic when they reached out to me about an interview for the new initative. This group has always been the go-to place to find what the community is up to, or to uncover hidden gems – a new resource like this is a total game-changer.
No gun can shut down entire sections of a map or take over a game quite like the AWP can. The only gun that is able to one shot to the body, the AWP is expensive, but it is worth every dollar spent. Every team will have an AWPer whenever possible on both sides. The amount of map control the AWP provides is uncontestable. Enemy players need to know where the opposing AWPer is at all times and strategies need to be made to combat them. Peeking into an AWP without help is a near-death sente
But as much as I enjoyed the single player, the multiplayer is what really stood out for me – it was so unique. In each map there are 4 bunkers, and any one a player controls starts spawning soldiers. You can bring up to eight soldiers with you, and ordering them to defend different positions in the map adds an amazing tactical twist as players fight to control different bunkers. I cannot tell you how many hours I’ve poured into this game, but one thing is certain – I still haven’t poured eno
The platform is not quite finished yet, mostly because there are plans to expand and breathe more life into it. “We have a lot of plans for the platform,” Alex says. “Everything you see has been coded by just two people. I have a background in design and front-end web development. David – our CTO – is an ex-military software developer and created the system and servers behind it all. Our most requested thing right now is a native app, which we plan to work on later in the year once we feel the website is more complete. For now, we have sub-communities for major Half-Life games, mods, and topics in the work. We’re also releasing new features every week. Last week, we added mentions. Now we’re working on multi-image posts.”
