Quote:Valve Talks Counter-Strike 2 Potential

The topic of a full Counter-Strike sequel has been cautiously broached by Valve during a series of interviews with GameTrailers TV.

"We will never abandon Counter-Strike," asserted Valve director of marketing Doug Lombardi, who went on to explain why the game hasn't received a major update since the release of Counter-Strike Source in 2004.

"It's a little bit unfair to compare Counter-Strike, I think, to your classic game that's gonna have these sequels. It looks a little bit more like an MMO where it's constantly [being updated]."

Of course, even the most successful MMOs get sequels eventually, and it appears that Valve is at least tentatively working out the details of a Counter-Strike refresh.

"With Counter-Strike 2, there's a big question between, do we go start over from scratch and build this whole new game, do we do something that looks more like Team Fortress 2 that is rooted in the old game but has a ton of new stuff, or do we just sort of take everything that's new that we've released and put that out in a new box," remarked Lombardi.

"I think we're leaning more towards the two more radical places than just sort of rolling up the new box and reskinning the box and putting out all the new stuff."

But will the game truly go the way of Team Fortress and end up in the new "cartoon shooter" genre?

"Oh I doubt that," Lombardi said, laughing.

"I just don't think that [Counter-Strike 2] would be a good fit [with Half-Life Episode 3]," added Valve co-founder Gabe Newell, noting that the potential game would be a stand-alone product in his eyes.

Newell closed with a dangerous challenge: "But if I get 15,000 emails from customers in response to this interview telling me 'Of course it should be in [the next Orange Box],' then of course we'll pay attention to that."

Counter Strike online

this is the most recent installment to the CS series...unfortunately there is a down side. It's being made by NEXON, meaning it will only (as for now) be exclusive to the far east. countries like Korea, Japan, and china will only see this game...also, its an MMOFPS. not sure how that works out but its more of a mod based off of condition zero..so the source engine will not be incorporated in this game. also as far as i have seen the quality is the exact same as condition zero..but the new things about the game has to offer is more weapons and ammo and ect. so im sad to report America will have to wait a while longer until the next CS game is launched...(if it ever does)

I'm betting sometime after Half Life: episode 3 is launched we will see something of a CS game pop out somewhere.

Heres hoping,

Well that excludes me. I am way over here in Florida.
But shoot, I never played counter strike.

It likely wont be until after Half Life 2 Episode 3.

That's how they do it. After Half Life 1 came Counterstrike.

Then the engine was massively updated, and Half Life 2, followed by CS:S was/were born.

So I imagine once we see some amazing, new engine by valve that will be paraded by Half Life 3, well then see a new Counterstrike based off that engine (call it Source 2 or whatever you please).

The spiritual successor to Counterstrike is in fact Team Fortress 2, which arguable is making comparable amounts of money in the Multiplayer Departments as CS:S did back in the day.
