MajorCOW February 25, 2005 Share MajorCOW Member February 25, 2005 What do you think about the new CT models? IMO it looks like they're wearing football helmets, but it's a nice change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simkiller February 25, 2005 Share simkiller Member February 25, 2005 The models I like. I love train. Compound so far I'm not too keen of. Hosties are in a shed with only one access point. My fps drop a ton. The map seems stacked very one sided for T's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
campkillyorself February 25, 2005 Share campkillyorself Member February 25, 2005 Haha, when I played as a ct we mowed the T's down at compound. Both maps are really nice to look at, but not too friendly with lower end comps. CT model I like, but I'm sad since I had an awsome skin for the old ct model. Be nice to get a new T model. Only played a little of train, both maps are very enjoyable. Train > Compound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MajorCOW February 25, 2005 Author Share MajorCOW Member February 25, 2005 Yeah I'd like to get a new T model too. Train seems to be a T advantage map. Compound I'm not too keen about either, but I don't think it's one sided. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simkiller February 25, 2005 Share simkiller Member February 25, 2005 Played compound some more and we kicked the ts butts so I take back the one sided comment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest zerodamage February 25, 2005 Share Guest zerodamage Guests February 25, 2005 Compound is one of those maps where you need sniper guns, even an aug and sig would make a big difference. Not sure why those guns are not allowed on noscopes. They are not sniper guns.. but anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
campkillyorself February 25, 2005 Share campkillyorself Member February 25, 2005 Yeah, it is very different with scopes allowed. But it would be impossible for me to snipe there with the fps I get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

k-wix February 25, 2005 Share k-wix Member February 25, 2005 (edited) As someone new to Counter-Strike and who has never played the original.. man, i love that map. Infact both of them i *adore*. They really emphasize teamplay, tactics and are generally different from the old CS maps, in a good way too! The new model for CT's i like, and im willing to bet we'll see T's with a new model come next update. All-around i am pleased with this update Compound is one of those maps where you need sniper guns, even an aug and sig would make a big difference. Not sure why those guns are not allowed on noscopes. They are not sniper guns.. but anyway. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> All you honestly need is a famas...

pagan February 26, 2005 Share pagan Member February 26, 2005 the new ct model is graphically sound and looks spiffy to boot. now we need a non-stupid looking terrorist model to match. another thing i noticed is that both models stand markedly higher than before. it adds a bit more of a challenge to keep your head down. i bet we stand eye to eye with those basketball playing hostages now, dont we. as for the new maps, compound is very nice with scopes. without scopes, it makes it increasingly difficult on the cts. i have a problem however with the amount of damage taken away by the chainlinked fences. you'd think you would be able to shoot through the gaps. as for the level of graphical detail they added on train, its on par with what they did to prodigy. as lame as it may sound, i would like to see a low-light map of the quality of train. not that im all about nvg's, but it would be fun.

VooDooPC February 26, 2005 Share VooDooPC Member February 26, 2005 The models are the same size. Its just that the POV has been raised to the eyes. Before they were at the chest level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clueless February 26, 2005 Share Clueless GC Alumni February 26, 2005 The vest on the Ct model looks like we did a bomb raid on a Maaco while they were spraying clearcoat, too shiny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
random_n00b February 26, 2005 Share random_n00b Member February 26, 2005 I'd say the new CT model looks nice for the most part, but they just kill my framerate with all that extra bump/cubemapping. Plus I'm just used to the old ones, so I guess I'll stick with those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norguard February 26, 2005 Share Norguard Member February 26, 2005 I love the new models. I've actually been using a bump skin on the Terrorist and CT models that was made forever ago, over at Steampowered. I take a graphic hit, but it's worth it to me. It's good to see that finally the models are getting the same update the maps did. Surely if your card can handle all of the cube/spec/normalmapping in the rest of the level, it can handle it on the models, too. Can't wait to see the new terrorist. As for Compound, it's a great 3-3 or 5-5 map, offering strong tactical play, and a lot of covert, sneaky insurgence. Any more people (my first two experiences were with 12-12), and you may as well start the CTs barefoot on broken glass, before swimming underwater in a pool infested with pirannahs, to make their way to their own, personalized electric chairs. ...an 8-8 is just a CT deathtrap. Earlier this evening, I believe it was 9-12, in Mayhem, and the Ts still took almost every single round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AgentTuna February 26, 2005 Share AgentTuna Member February 26, 2005 my imput is, train, and old map, nice to have it on source though, compound wicked map, but goes bit towards teh t's imo, ct models give that "10 40 blue, 10 40 blue! HUT HUT ! HIKE!" you know but there different, not muc of an over all change, just a cell phone here, and a striped helmet tehre i want it like 1.6, how you had 4 options to choose Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CowboyFromHell`X February 27, 2005 Share CowboyFromHell`X Member February 27, 2005 If you wanted new T models couldn't you get custom ones? Sorry I don't play source so I could be wrong but I know a site where they release tons of custom CSS skins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fatty February 27, 2005 Share Fatty GC Founder February 27, 2005 i want it like 1.6, how you had 4 options to choose <{POST_SNAPBACK}> My guess based on nothing but a guess is that eventually they'll have that option...but right now they're not going to mix old/new models. simultaneous discussion, similar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
