They'd probably ruin it to be honest. There really hasn't been a good FPS after CoD4 came out. Everyones been copying that thing ever since. :P

Why? So just a new CS with better graphics? I sure hope not. The Original Counter-Strike was perfect. It was balanced very well and had one of the strongest game communities for years. Counter-Strike Source was good as well although it wasn't perfect when it came out. I played CS for 10 years straight. Playing at a competitive level online and at tournaments with great people made it irresistible. Other than Starcraft (in Korea) it was the most competitive online game. So many tournaments with huge cash prizes all around the world There's only so much you can do. What are they gonna add a Single Player campaign? They already added stupid achievements to compete with games like CoD and redid the UI and Scoreboards.

CS 1.6 still is good. 16.000 servers on average, full of players 24/7. It's as popular as it has ever ben.

I didn't say it was bad. I don't know if they added achievements to it like Source though. 2002-2007 were the best years for competitive CS. I stopped seriously playing in 2008 and quit in 2009. I have only played Source a few times since at a friends and it's just boring for me on Public servers. Like I said you can't do much to the game now. They are just trying to copy CoD to hook new players or keep others playing. I wouldn't play another CS built on a new engine with new graphics.

Uh...what's wrong with better graphics? CS:Source followed that formula and seemed to be pretty successful...

No need for CS2, CS 1.6 is still great.

Valve needs to finish HL2 episode 3 already. I swear if they make L4D3 or Portal 3 before it.... :x

I don't know, not all of them, maybe more then half, but still, there's thousands of vanilla servers out there. I know there are a lot of user made maps with a good deal of mods put to them, but i think that adds to it's replayability. And i also love how sensitive good admins are to hacks. Seriously, most CS players are extremely experienced and figuring out who cheats is easy. That's one thing i like about CS 1.6. There are barely any cheats on servers that have good admins.

Most maps i play on are the standard ones as in inferno, de_dust2, aztec, and other ****c ones. I remember i had 3 servers put in 'My Favorites', i picked them because of the fantastic admins there. It's ben about a month. There are tooo many servers out there to make a aproximate conclusion as to how many mods there are.

They should put in a mix of old maps along with new maps. Also, bring back some of the classic CS maps, like Oil Rig, 747, and Siege. I miss those. :(

CS:Source did more than that. CS Source divided the Counter-Strike community. It took a few years until it got better. It will never be the master piece the original Counter-Strike is though. Anyway that's my opinion. I don't play the game anymore but I think adding the achievements and changing/adding other stuff is just lame. It's not really the same game anymore. I would like to see Half-Life 3 though.

Man reading all the posts so intent on CS being the BEST FPS ever. Pointless releasing an update it will just create the BIGGEST moaning bunch of PC gamers ever known to man. I would like to see a Counter Strike 2 but if there are so many players in this ELITE bracket of the old one is the best BLAGH BLAGH CSS sucks due to one Pixel out of place on the gun model for the AK47 or the Maps are not as well balanced! I mean i think half of these people try CSS get owned and hate it another quarter tried it and generally preferred the original then another quarter just follow the so called elite players who stick with the original due top Kudos.

Make me wanna VOMIT reading some of the PC gamer posts on here i swear. Now thanks to this attitude instead of an update to Counter Strike we get to see Portal 2 instead. Also more than likely some of my silly logic may apply to why we havent see Half Life Episode 3 yet. This constant whining from computer game players has to be effecting some things it would be interesting to see how much it affects current products or how little. Poor Dragon Age 2 another example of what is most likely a well made game shot to bits by forum posters.

I love how some if not most of the posters who make any comment about preferring which CS especially 1.6 use the much fabled words of IMO < God stop using this as a reason to state something then kinda **** out of any challenge. Its your opinion that you prefer the original but do me and others a favour SHUT UP and allow CS2 to be released without ragging on it from the 1st Screen Shot or even before it conceived. Raghhh

If Counter-Strike 2 is higher on their priority list than Episode Three, I will not be impressed.

I wouldn't be surprised if they are pushing HL2:E3 to release CS2 in tandem. Like they did with EP2/TF2.

It's amazing how a game so outdated in terms of gameplay has managed to stay fun for so long thanks to mods and competetion.

But if they were going to make a sequel I would rather them make improvements on the formula not just remake the current game, look at Tactical Intervention as an example. I can always go back an play CSS, CS 1.6, CS 1.5, etc if it doesn't work out but I would like to see Valve add something new. (incoming hate)

That was a good reaction. He's hiding something. He was expecting him to ask about Episode 3 and he was prepared but Counter Strike 2? 'No one's supposed to be thinking about that you caught me by surprise!'

I'm pretty sure this is going to happen. Valve is hiding some big things, I think there are still two 'big surprises' that Valve has. I think they have some really good ideas that they are working on. I expect amazing things.

If counterstrike 2 gets announced, it will be the ned of console FPS as we know it. there are already more people playing counterstrike 1.6 and source than Halo reach. LOL ooohhhh maaaaannn come on CS2 YEAH!!!!!!!!
