when did CS relinquish the crown? still more people play CS per day then any other shooter.

clrlite4643d ago

To me it still holds the crown. Hopefully they will not try any silly business to try and appeal to a "wider audience"(nubs). They have a tried and true formula that many fans already appreciate. It would be wise to work with the fanbase they already have rather than risk losing them by going casual. Look what happened to Socom, I think valve knows better than this.

"it absolutely kills any chance the game has of acceptance in e-sports circles"

In reference to a game with dozen of professional teams who play in tournaments.

Cool story bro.

molotovs are rumored? wow and who cares about the money. just find a server that has the unlimited 16,000. there problem solved. i can already predict the console version will have that crappy matchmaking crap on it.

TABSF4645d ago (Edited 4645d ago )

Can't argue with them 6 points.

Lets see what Valve do

One thing for sure Valve listen to the community but also are not scared of taking risks and by not copying what others are doing.

jackoffjim4645d ago (Edited 4645d ago )

Think of it this way. Without Counter-Strike, The Call of Duty franchise wouldn't exist. If you put Call of Duty 4 next to Counter-Strike, wouldn't you say they look identical?

clrlite4643d ago

Pretty strange that anyone could disagree with you considering pretty much everything that has ever been done in COD was already done in CS with mods, etc.

Team Fortress: Source 2 and Portal 64 Fan Projects Shut Down by Valve Takedowns

Fan projects Team Fortress: Source 2 and Portal 64 have shut down after Valve intervened in their development.

-Foxtrot111d ago

First they open Steam up to more AI, now they are shutting down fan projects when at one time they used to support or even give the fans jobs.

Wonder what's going on with Valve at the minute.

rlow1111d ago

@Foxtrot
It’s called money plain and simple.

JEECE111d ago

I mean, that might explain the Team Fortress 2 thing, because Valve might bring that to Source 2 (though I'm not sure I'd bet on that), but I can't see how Portal 64 hurts them. If anything, it's more attention to the Portal and therefore Valve/Steam.

Giblet_Head111d ago (Edited 111d ago )

There's potential that Valve had already planned to bring Source 2 to TF2 officially after Counter Strike 2. It's been getting some renewed attention lately.

Inverno111d ago

You got Nintendo to thank for Portal64 being taken down. As for TF2, most likely it's due to the probability of Valve working on a source 2 port themselves. It's sucks but Nintendo are the biggest pricks in the business and not letting this drag out into a huge court drama is the best decision.

Valve Opens the Floodgates to Allow More AI Based Games on Steam

Valve has updated its stance on AI games on the Steam storefront, allowing creators to publish AI-created games.

Droppedez111d ago

AI is just another form of slavery for our computer brethren.

Barlos111d ago (Edited 111d ago )

Hell no. I want games that have been made by creative minds who have a passion for their craft, not a bot with a penchant for plagiarism.

BrainSyphoned110d ago (Edited 110d ago )

So instead of paying for an engine and assets to create a game they are paying for an engine and assets to create a game.

Valve Tells Players To Stop Inhaling Steam Deck Vent Fumes

Valve has officially warned against inhaling the Steam Deck vent fumes in an official response due to potential health hazards.

gold_drake137d ago

my god, people are so dumb these days.

shinoff2183137d ago

I read the headline to my girl and she even reacted wtf is wrong with people. People wild

Notellin135d ago

I feel bad for her that she can't read and needs you to do it for her. Keep your head up!

shinoff2183134d ago

Notellin, I've been teaching her 😘

Jin_Sakai135d ago (Edited 135d ago )

This generation is about dumb as it gets.

frostypants135d ago

Huffing things isn't new to be fair.

SavageFlamingo135d ago

This has nothing to do with generations. It’s not a stupid challenge or anything. People just happened to smell it while they were playing. The steam deck exhaust is easy to smell without even trying. Just playing it you’ll smell it in the air around you.

Felix_Argyle_Catbro135d ago

"tHiS gEErAtIoN"
It's every generation, today you just see it more clearly thanks to internet.

k2d135d ago

To be fair, I loved the smell of glue, gas and certain plastics as a kid (new disc cartridges/new hardware, anyone?)

Si-Fly134d ago

Instruction manuals for me, best smell ever 😂

crazyCoconuts135d ago

I actually take a whiff of it once in a while, it's funny that it smells so good lol

DarXyde135d ago

Tide pod fiasco all over again

Felix_Argyle_Catbro135d ago

"tHeSe DaYs"
People have been just as dumb in the past, you just see it clearly now thanks to the internet.

gold_drake135d ago

thanks for that .. insight. ha.

rlow1135d ago

Well good thing about dumb people, they play an important part in human history. How else do we know which plants, animals and foods ar dangerous? Dumb people! They pay the price so the rest of us don’t have to. Lol

FinalFantasyFanatic135d ago

Honestly, I'm not even surprised considering some of the people I come across these days, inhaling fumes would explain a lot of things.

Wow people will huff anything nowadays some people just have way too much time on their hands.

Abnor_Mal135d ago (Edited 135d ago )

Another reason to love the PlayStation Portal, no chance of breathing in noxious vapors.

Get a Steam Deck they said, to which I reply, what are you high?

KwietStorm_BLM135d ago

Were you high when you typed this?

Abnor_Mal135d ago

Sorry bud no Steam Deck here.

135d ago
FinalFantasyFanatic135d ago (Edited 135d ago )

Even the Steam Deck does streaming better than the Portal (they portal is capped for streaming for some reason, whereas the Steam Deck isn't).

Neonridr135d ago

imagine pretending a glorified streaming device is better than a stand alone unit that can also, stream.

Stand by for the 'gaming kills' articles.
Que Halloween movie theme.

Nucleux135d ago

What does it smell/taste like?

Barlos135d ago

Better than the Switch cartridges is my guess.

Just to be clear, I've never licked a Switch cartridge, nor have I inhaled my deck's fumes.

Profchaos135d ago

Same never licked a switch cart I've always been worried more about where it's been than the taste but

Fluke_Skywalker135d ago

It smells good, that's the problem lol. When I first turned mine on I noticed it 😅
Better stop sniffing it then.

Barlos135d ago

I've had my deck for over a year, I've never been compelled to put my nose near the vent for a good lungful 😂

crazyCoconuts135d ago

I can't explain it... It smells...new

SavageFlamingo135d ago (Edited 135d ago )

Kind of like cheap bacon cooking. Even cheap bacon smells good.
