More Condition Zero Goodness

Community boys Boomtown have added a rather interesting preview of the upcoming CS:CZ. It's definitely worth a read, and they also sport some new screenshots. Here's a tidbit:

The ingame effects have been improved quite a bit, even though they are still all scripted sequences, meaning that they will be executed the same way every time. The chopper, for example, will always follow the same route, and people falling down stairs will do it in the same manner every time and pay no attention to whether you shot them in the head or the kneecaps. We'll probably have to wait for Half-Life 2 or Counter-Strike 2 to see dynamic effects.

Point yourself in this direction for the full preview.

	phonics 14:48 9/7/2003	riot shield is very funny though, mostly because the retards on the beta servers will just stand there and spray u even if u walk up to them at point blank , (untill they have no ammo or u get bored and shoot them with ure deagle). [ Comment: Report \| IP: Logged ]

	Ablation contact! 19:04 9/7/2003	The good thing about using "ye olde engine", is that system requirements will be kept relatively low, people who are able to run Half-Life on their systems should have no problems running Condition Zero as well. Ahahaha :/ [ Comment: Report \| IP: Logged ]
	PFCalcio THX 19:30 9/7/2003	ROFL - how to contradict yourself inside two sentences If you think that Condition Zero's graphics will be superior to Counter-Strike, you're wrong. The game is still using the old Quake engine that the original Half-Life used. However Ritual has managed to squeeze the very last drop of capacity out of the engine, so a tiny improvement is actually noticeable. [ Comment: Report \| IP: Logged ]
	G^D 20:12 9/7/2003	i think the engine is tired, they need a new 1. [ Comment: Report \| IP: Logged ]
	phonics 12:04 10/7/2003	the graphics in 1.6 are slightly better, and the sound is better, but it couldnt be considered a real graphical improvement (just guns are a bit fatter etc.) [ Comment: Report \| IP: Logged ]
