CS2 Overpass Analysed

[@lufetm]

The best part of CS2 Overpass is the visibility, you can finally see people in connector

[@Vinicantstopcrying]

CS2 will be colourful themed ( Official Poster consistent with the map which is Highly saturated and bright ). Csgo is Dark, Greyish and Depressed themed ( EVERY Official Posters released so far are always Dark themed which are consistent to the In game theme ) I think every map in CS2 will be Happy and Colorful looking compared to CSGO. I am not saying my preference but my observations so far. I don't understand the Toxic replies below

@@Vinicantstopcrying Counter-Strike: Source had better suited graphics for its gameplay than whatever the hell CSGO was smoking. I suspect someone at Valve's CSGO Art team got infected with Gears Of War disease and they didn't bothered to purge the Grey Filth before it was too late. At least Valve finally fixed their worst aspect of the game, 10 years later.

[@lostkostin]

@@LazyBuddyBan It's probably because the game back then was made from military references.

The dark and gritty themed will be missed but the whole visibility issue is sort over the top when it comes to the new CS2 overhaul maps.

In the first map of HL:Alyx, there are props from HL2 and CS:S, like an awning and some junction boxes.

I am so glad they brightened up the dark areas of this map, but then again the orignal map has its own charm too, like the new maps dont feel like they are abandoned places.

overpass is looking a lot more bangable 10/10 video philip

[@GermanPeter]

I'm actually not so sure it's meant to be sewage water, actually. Considering they're doing construction in the area, it seems silly and dangerous to have the whole area be full of raw sewage, especially the kind that can create foam. I think it's more meant to represent old rainwater that has gathered after the whole sewage system has been shut down. You see that remarkably often in construction sites, too. While it would be more accurate to have debris gathering on top of it, this doesn't look too far off from reality to begin with.

[@atreYO18]

A note to where Overpass is located: While the map includes something very similar to the Berlin TV tower and shows German language at various occassions, funnily enough, the background of the map shows the classic panorama of the city Prague. Just a curious tidbit that seems to have gone unnoticed.

[@AmBush2048]

I knew that those card textures looked familiar!

[@joeyvg07]

I mean it was german owned at one point

[@Interference22]

That semi-transparent foliage is probably a bunch of tree models being partially culled from view. Props are meant to disappear once they reach a certain distance from the player, cleanly fading away with a dither pattern as they get close to the limit so you don't see them just pop out of existence. I imagine whoever's placed them hasn't set the cull distance high enough and they're just hovering at the limit.

[@AkillesOfSweden]

Shouldn’t the trees be using LODs instead?

[@RuNeN00b]

that's what i thought too, i was on mirage the other day and discovered that right at the bottom of A ramp, you can see the palm trees fade in and out of the texture scaling phases

[@Interference22]

@@AkillesOfSweden Not if they're never actually meant to be distance culled at all and their default model is already low poly geometry you're never meant to see close up. It's likely just an oversight that the dithering is applied at all.

[@simpson6700]

very impressive how accurately you got the camera lined up

[@locki_dos]

I think the maps that were already remade or made 2016 onwards by Valve like Dust 2, Nuke and ancient were already made in source 2 and were backported to Source 1. Which probably explains their lack of changes between them now. I think what shows it more obviously is that Source 2 maps generally use alot of models for detail compared to the original source maps especially when you consider half life: alyx's maps were mostly decorated by models.

[@Scrum_Master_Revolution]

Devs specifically said those maps werent made in source 2. Production of Nuke especially required them to add a bunch of new features to source just to get it working.
