Counter-Strike: Condition Zero
by Maarten Goldstein, May 14, 2001 3:03pm PDTAn update to the Rogue's Counter-Strike Canned? thanks to the guys at CGW. Yes, Rogue's Counter-Strike has been cancellled, instead development will take place at Valve Software. Counter-Strike: Condition Zero will be a stand-alone Counter-Strike game and the July issue of Computer Gaming World will feature a "exclusive first look" at this title
Counter-Strike, the tactical-sim lite that's popped a cap in the gaming world's ass, is getting ready for it's next big stand-alone update. We're talking new weapons, a new player class, new skins and sixteen new maps for you and your terrorist (or counter-terrorist) pals to enjoy round after round of fast-paced run-and-gun action

did anybody ever consider that this is just something to hold the mappers, skinners, and modellers over while the programming team is continuing work on the new tf2 engine?
they never say that this is on a new engine of "cs2" or anything. in fact, they specifically say that this will be "it's next big stand-alone update". this appears to me just a way to acquire the next version of cs. i'm not positive, but reading the blurb here gives me the impression that i'll be able to download the updates for free if i so desire, or i can buy the retail release, similar to what they did for cs1.0. in other words, this is still cs. this isn't a totally seperate game, or even a q3/ta type release. it's just the next big update for the regular old cs.
anybody have any info that will confirm/deny this? shackmessage me please.

Damn that's ghey. They really need to use a thesaurus to come up with titles. How lame is Condition Zero?
I bet they lose sales for the lame title. :p

Counter-Strike: Condition Zero almost dodged lbsn's rocket.
Serious Sam Wins!
So many ambushes! So many F-key reloads! So many crawlie bitches to kill! So many scientists to wax and so many ways to do it! So many helicopters to mortar into oblivion! So many mods to play! So many Counter-Strike additions -- oh, wait, it's for the standalone version. Thanks, Valve. Time to suck dick now.

I was talking to this guy on a CS server last night, and he was talking about Day of Defeat and how it was a MOD for CS. I was like "It's a MOD for Half-Life, not Counter-Strike," and he's arguing that it's a MOD for Counter-Strike. I asked him if he knew what Half-Life was. He said "What...?"

We're talking new weapons - ok, that excites me a little
a new player class - a whole new class? hmmm (hope it doesn't suck like "VIP")
new skins and sixteen new maps - well that's not that exciting, i can get that online
and i hope this is not on the old HL engine : (
