A new
Steam
Marketing Message (thanks
Frans) has a screenshot of a new HDR version of
the Counter-Strike: Source map Train as well as details on changes to the CS:S
radar that will impact gameplay, all due in an update they expect to be
releasing in a couple of weeks:
Soon, we'll be releasing the first in a
series of updates to Counter-Strike: Source which will be focused on moving the
core Counter-Strike gameplay forward.
The first update will include an updated version of the map Train, which will
feature an HDR lighting pass, some minor layout changes, and a number of small
bugfixes.
The second facet of this release will be a completely reworked radar system.
There will be a significant change to the aesthetics of the radar, but there are
also some fairly significant gameplay ramifications to the new system. One
example: when you look directly at an enemy for a long enough time for their
name to appear on your screen, everyone on your team will be able to see that
enemy in the radar. We're planning on releasing this first update in about two
weeks.
