First I must say that I’m neither a broadcaster (don’t make money from a YouTube channel either) nor I ever played CS:GO, but I was watching this video and I thought this would be something worth mentioning here.
So, it seems the commentator can scribble on the top view map. It could be something that might be worth implementing in DB.
(11:50 to 12:20)
man, this is so freaking boring. they just repeate round after round after round on the same map…
That is indeed a neat features, and it’s one that’s alongside many others on a list of cool spectating functionality we’d like to get into the game at some stage. That’d certainly be a nice to have.
But it can play out 100 different ways - that’s the beauty of it (and what is lacking in DB).
Sort of true… I mean you are in control of the length of the game in CS… You could rush and make it a 2 minute round…
In games like ET, RTCW and DB - SW the games are going to last at least 5 minutes… I have seen the train one done super fast but normal rounds will take 10 to 15 minutes…
I want the One life to live to come back to DB… The different game mode will keep people around that are sick of SW. I am sure SD could come up with something very creative and one off just for DB in this mode.
CS has the plant and good for them… COD has a bunch of mods that could be One Life to Live that would be fun… What if SD did a completely out of the box OLTL…
It has to be some one obj based but highly addictive even if you die to watch. It just get people out of spawn and moving or progressing the map or an object.
Humm… Thinking shoes on here people… The basic question is how would you change CS objective and make it better?
Almost like a OLTL capture and return the flag type thing… Or a sort of Dodge ball (Multi Doc Run) OLTL… Or a middle flag that is neutral that needs to be returned…
Something where a team can win even without killing all of the other team…
Hummm Think…
Almost like a base race type mod could work… Returning parts or something…
Hummm…
What about mini objectives with in the map or something… To make other classes useful…
RTCW OLTL was always done on Normal maps and maps that had doc runs…
It does in the matches I’ve played/watched. So many possibilities for tactics/strategy/rotations in CS. In DB it’s spawn, run down a 50ft wide street/tunnel, and shoot people, die, spawn, etc… Hopefully when the maps get a major overhaul and get some side route/side objective and forward spawn/cp love, there will be more possibilities for different strategies.
I hate commentators who talk like they are game show hosts… like seriously talk like a real person.
If this is implemented please give an option to turn it off, this feature gets trolled way too much.
I would think this is for broadcasting situations only, and not to communicate with your team mates. So you’d only see it in someone else’s video, not ingame.
