Counter-Strike: Condition Zero
Randy Pitchford is grilled on the topic of this single-player add-on for Counter-Strike...
Firstly, Counterstrike has been the game of choice for the on-line community for some time now, to what do you attribute this success?
Randy Pitchford: It's fun.
How will Condition Zero build upon the strengths of CS, and what will it add that fans will relish?
Randy Pitchford: Condition Zero is a single player version of the on-line game. It adds purpose, narrative, character and team building incentives to the game. Condition Zero also allows players to tackle the narrative missions cooperatively. Finally, Condition Zero adds new technology, content and game play features that will upgrade the existing multiplayer game.
I hear that a little new technology will be improving the visuals of Condition Zero; what kinds of improvements will we witness, and what benefits has this entailed from a design perspective?
Randy Pitchford: There are new special effects technologies and rendering technologies that give us a number of benefits that specifically benefit the design of the game. This includes some upgrades to the model rendering system to allow for fully alpha blended models. You'll see very realistic trees and foliage as a result of this feature. There will now also be levels of detail in models which allows us to provide the High Definition pack for Counter-Strike without sacrificing performance on mid-range PC's. The most visible upgrades will be in the area of special effects. These can really only be appreciated by seeing the game in action. As a result of new special effects technology, there's now precipitation in many levels (like snow and rain) and specific bullet impact effects for any given type of material found in the world.

Thanks for the insight in what appears to be a game extensions that is well worth waiting for. And this review site.... Impressive, in depth tips on the game scene, and and and so easy to navigate - keep it up chaps.
Glad you like the site - we worked hard on getting it right. You have Luke and the other writers to thanks for the great content :)
will the strong weapons like the rocket make the game more boring?
rocket , cs , no way ! heheheh
Whoopie now we can rocket jump!
Well in the Fed issue of CGW there was an article that there wil be crosshairs, will that still be included
shut up, all of you, rockets will be cool and if they wernt then why would they put them in
hmmmm thats a way of putting it i guess that you could be right.
Great ideas aholes
i dont think rockets will work out with counter strike and what will the gas nades do?
painted on goggle set
the gas grenades will take away health not the mask
Will the system requirements be too high for a P2 cpu to play and will u need a really good video card?
i would like to se pictures in this!
E un joc super tineto tot asa
The rocket launcher is single shot folks...no rocket jumping. I won't be buying something I can only use once AND that takes my beloved HE grenage slot.
the same comen of crisiszone
the two last comments
also i think that their should be character levels like up to 50... thst would make game more interesting
The rocket launcher is gonna be the n00b Cann0n 2 I can't stand awp or auto shotty, rocket launcher is just gonna be another weapon for people to complain about =\
Ppl that complain about the AWP/AWM and the auto-shotty better get their act together. Devasting weapons in the right hands, but in the hands of a n00b? Let's just see how this LAW works, else, let a serverside script take out the use of any weap. you don't like. ;) AdminMOD rules!
Is CS Condition zero going to be a muilti player game to ????
Of course it is. Is the new M60E3 going to fire its regular 7.52 round, or the same 5.56 rond as the para?
Of course it is, otherwise it would suck. Is the new M60E3 going to fire its regular 7.52 round, or the same 5.56 round as the para?
Of course it is, otherwise it would suck. Is the new [M60E3] going to fire its regular 7.52 round, or the same 5.56 round as the para?
You'll still be able to play online idiot. Have you not been reading anything? If you don't like the new cs, go play Quake and quit complaining.
i was wondering if u know when u would have condition zero out?
daros prisa en sacarlos
Right, Ive read ALL of these comments and Im gonna say this, Do you honestly beleive that the developers dont know how anticipated this game is? They are gonna get the balance JUST RIGHT. And whats more, deep deep down, you ALL know it!! So...stop winging about weapons amd multipayers and nOObs etc. Infact I got a better idea, I DARE you not to buy it, no...I DOUBLE DOG DARE YA!!!................fools...........you cant resist :D
