Counter-Strike: Global Offensive to include new Decoy grenade and balance tweaks

Officially, Valve hasn't given us much more than a name for Counter-Strike Global Offensive, but unofficially, they've invited a bevy of pro-gamers to the HQ to play it already. G4 got a hold of one of those pros, and Craig "Torbull" Levin from eSports Entertainment Association, has shared some details on the game he saw.

It sure sounds a lot like Counter-Strike -- of course there will be new models and animations, but the maps are all the old familiar kind: Dust, Dust2, Inferno, Nuke, and Train. There are some new maps to play on, and new weapons, including a new heavy machine gun, a new range of shotguns specifically for close-up combat, and a Molotov cocktail grenade, expensive and designed for strategically cutting off a certain area on the map.

There's another new grenade called a Decoy that sounds cool: It'll send out a burst of gunfire from wherever it's thrown, confusing the enemy team into thinking there's action there. That's still being tweaked (the gunfire might be from specific weapons or just the generic enemy firearms), along with weapons strength and various experiments like giving everyone kevlar at round start, or making the CT defuse kit a special item like the Terrorist bomb.

Sounds interesting -- and still very under development. We'll see the game later on this month at PAX, and let you know more then.

Could the OG beat the COD/BF killer?

Socom was pretty good. Reminded me alot of MGS4. 
Resistance 3 Beta is broken.

Tried MAG, that lasted about 10 minutes. What an awful game.

Really, i thought Socom was trash. I just went to gamestop and got them to open Socom for the resistance code and then returned it.

Now Alice is a surprise to me because its actual a pretty good.

At least you're not as bad as me, still haven't played RE5 or MGS4.

 

RE5 was pretty easy to platinum. Tap did all of the work though.

Happy to help, although I'd hardly say I did all of the work! I just know my way around that game.
