I'm starting to believe they actually do it on purpose

They've had this ready and waiting for months, they just had to wait for the right opportunity.

@@Ground91 I thought it was a freak coincidence each time but this basically confirms it for me.

so Philip need to be on vacation all the time

They even thanked Philip for his sacrifice on twitter lmao

Yep. How do you develop a game for that ... Battlefield and Call of Duty for example are on the other side of the spectrum and always get into trouble.

people who complain that the update didnt reach their expectations are not real cs players, this is exactly what i needed, i didnt expect much only graphical changes and hopefully better mm system/tickrates but damn they came up with some new game dynamics, im excited to test them out

@@dogsushienjoyer True. Personally I'm a community server person and these changes / updates will be great.

@@dogsushienjoyer People were expecting a new game but really what would they even do in a new game aside from what they did now they remade the whole game in a new engine added some features, spiced up the server tech. That's more than you could ask for in an competitively balanced and well liked game like counter strike.

could be the slogan for the new CS2 considering how accurate it is, they change so much, even gameplaywise but it's still the same basegame, feels really weird but they did it perfectly. Seeing forward to CS2 first Major, that will be nuts.

Precisely why I was waiting to hear his thoughts, I knew he was going to cover things like the settings menu and shadow differences. In fact, I’d watch a whole series of 10-minute videos of Philip covering the most minute changes he could think of checking.

We know that this release was scheduled in accordance with your vacation

Phillip should take more vacations more often. So valve can finally update tf2

Hi 👋

xD I got on a csgo comp with a buddy that has access to cs2 and he asked our teammates if they were excited by the news, well their response was not that positive lulul, jesus this community sounds like a bunch of grumpy old men

@@SuperWeedPower People cried when CS moved from WON to Steam and when WON was subsequently shut down. Yet here we are now.

Change lol they did next to nothing and are trying to call a update cs2 hahaha

Yes. The amount of people that don't recognize you have a shadow that is seen CT when you are standing on cat ledge.

for me it’s the feet. i don’t think you’ve been able to see your feet in a source game since l4d1

NO, SEND HIM BACK

I mean I kinda get that the majority of people don’t care about the settings when the game literally just got released. Not saying it’s not important, I just think there is more interesting stuff to cover right after it’s release.

Uhhh not sure what communities you are around but basically nobody actually wants CS to change... we just wanted Source 2 for better graphics and performance and future updates (and easier map making)

Agreed, it's an absolutely perfect conclusion. I'm actually a bit disappointed by what I've seen of CS2 so far because it isn't changing as much as I would want and expect from the numbered title -- but that eagerness for change is probably why I'm just a casual CS fan and not part of the core fanbase lol

@@QuintessentialWalrusTh​e counter strike series is what it is because it stuck to its core mechanics without changing too much throughout its 20 years. It is one of the reasons for its longevity that not many games can reach. Them making too many changes would ruin their game. It is like chess. Chess is practically a perfect game with perfect mechanics that has existed for hundreds of years. It is a timeless classic that people can play and go back to whenever they want knowing that they can enjoy it every single time and chess rules have never changed in a long time.

@@Stumbler69513 that's what he's talking about lol

Cs "2"

I see a familiar face, hello!

heartbreakingly wholesome my lord

aww Richter is so wholesome as always

honestly it depends on the video type and topic, the tools you use and how flashy you want it to be. you could do your video in passes, like one pass is just reviewing your video, checking your points, making sure you got everything, second pass is trimming and cutting the clips together, third one could be audio check, fourth is everything else like fancy effects and stuff. by doing this, you can integrate some stuff later down the like like doing pass 2 and 3 at the same time with relatively less time than you used to. or it just depends from person to person on how fast they perform said stuff, but we all can agree that a good workflow really speeds process up

Don't worry the more time you spend doing and learning it the easier and faster it'll be for you. Just takes time is all

I agree but >You may hide them later based on player in-game hours. Just make in an option, I'd hate for UI to randomly change based on gameplay hours.

My exit button remains typing "quit" in console or being tabbed out and closing from the taskbar since I *mostly* play faceit and end up tabbing out after every game. I haven't used the quit button in years. Also what fqdn said. Gameplay hours should not cause changes. If a user wants to change something, they should do it themselves. Also why do the friends need to move. Couldn't a scroll-bar be added to the left of where the friends are located? Definitely move the exit button to the top right though. That is one of the main reasons I don't use it even though I've spent thousands of hours it always feels unnatural to exit with the button.

I don’t agree with the friends section moving to the left; most people read left to right and thus that’s where the most important information should be placed. What they should do instead, is to have the sidebar appear under the menu bar instead of them overlapping each other, as the menu bar has higher hierarchical importance. In that case, they could test placing the exit button on the right, which allows for better muscle memory control.

Terrible idea. Friendlist is the most important thing. As such it has to be on the right side. Also Switching to fullscreen for News etc is bad this is a game menu not KZfaq where i want to watch a video.

That would be really cool if you want to have the major up while reading through updates and be able to control where and to what size it will be. Displaying inventory skins would be sick as well. Maybe a weapon wall of sorts?

@@thrownsofaraway9978 ooooh a skin showcase yes lol thatd be sick

exactly, and unfortunately too much of the playerbase doesn't understand it.

I guess that's why Valve doesn't fix broken and useless weapons like the R8, CZ, p2000, m249, and mp5sd. I guess that's why Valve doesn't fix "fun" gamemods like demolition, retake, etc. Why don't the devs try to fix it first?

Valorant players doesn't understand this... They just want content content content and content. We CS player enjoyed simple things, move flick shoot, simple contents like skins without too much gimmicks

Bro, you know what other game who only changes its engine but get huge backlash? OVERWATCH They just get graphic update and changes from 6 to 5 player groups Ppl angry more to blizzard than valve simply bcs blizzard make it felt like greed

@@juic-ox3ns I use the mp5

My understanding is that deferred rendering can handle a lot more dynamic lights on screen at once without slowing down, which is one of its major advantages. CS can do without this: super busy light effects would be distracting for competitive play, and most maps only have the sun with maybe a few light bulbs in a tunnel or something.

They had to. TAA looks especially horrible at lower resolutions.

@@lukeforce123 TAA is garbage, too much ghosting especially for translucent textures like glass or fast movement in some games

I doubt the majority of player want RT in CS2 the game always focus on performance over graphics not to mention it's expensive too so it's not worth to trade the graphics over performance for game like this imo

@@kratosgow342 true, true. Still though would be cool seeing RTX on source since it also handles lighting so ambient reflections would occur in real time like real life. Also do we can mirrors in source 2. Portal cameras could work as well, yes.

How did you manage to be double wrong. 2018 scaleform is called that because that was the last year and last version of scaleform UI. Which was relevant to the panorama update video he made. Likewise that version of scaleform was added in 2013.

maybe the footage was gathered in 2018? Idk maybe not
