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

Hyperclearicmarkzombies yeah this game looks ok
yOU WOULDNT HAVE COD WITHOUT THIS GAME. ITS MORE THAN OK
that's false this is a modern first person shooter...call of duty was released 2003 was modeled after medal of honor that was on the PlayStation 1 that's why they are both world war 2 when counter strike is modern and if I'm wrong tell me but i think medal of honor was before counter strike

ZBrush-Ant- Console players are gonna ruin this game, it should stick to PC.
How would console gamers ruin anything? I play CS on PC and it will obviously be better than any console version, but how will console players ruin the PC version?

Is Counter Strike any good?
I have never played it before and might buy this for the Xbox unless i have a pc when this releases.

TauntzE I'd like to hear from the CS pros of this is any good.
Then again it is probably gonna be free. (:
That doesn't make any sense. Why would they make a brand new or expansion free? All the free games on Steam have been there for years and are not new.
I am in love with Counter Strike, I have been playing it since 2004 and have been loving every second of it. I hope this will be a new game(it looks like it because it's on the store and setup as a game) since they haven't released anything like HL or CS in years.
This will be interesting and will probably have a huge fan base(2-3million) for years to come. This will probably be like, $15-$25 brand new maybe even $30 for a big package! This will be a great addition to my collection.
