Get Your Leet On!

[-smash-]

I’m going to start this off with the best news of the night. For you Counter-Strike fans, you know that your precious Source port of the game is lacking your most beloved character models. Two of the best models will be coming to Counter-Strike: Source this month! The Leet Krew (Terrorist Side) and the SAS (Counter-Terrorist Side) are going to be appearing in your favorite game very soon! Valve has given us a preview of both of these models in tonight’s Steam update:[br]

Awesome I thought I'd be dissapointed with the Leet Crew model, but it's fantastic.

It's good to have that nice variety in player models.

 

[Kare Bear]

They look ok :/

 

[Sloth]

WOO! Three models now! Doesn't change the game-play but makes it a bit more fun...

 

[Vegeta897]

On a related note, I've always wanted game to have a lot of variety. I mean, I think it would really add a ton to the life-span of a game.

More player models are great. You can't have too many, really. The more there are, the more realistic and variety-filled. Keeps it interesting.

Also, how awesome would it be if each weapon had a bunch of versions of the model, like simple things that wouldn't affect the gun, but just variation to keep the game varied and interesting. Maybe a scuff mark here, a taped up stock there. And some more variation with the sounds of everything would be neat too.

But I'm willing to go further. (This is where most people would dissagree with me) Add the ability to buy accessories for your weapon, much like in The Specialists. Laser sights, scopes, silencers... Or different kinds of mags? Maybe like you could buy a dual-mag for quick reloading, but at a higher price.

Or even just add tons more weapons. Am I the only guy who likes the idea of having like, 50 different weapons at your disposal It would add so much variety. And you would be able to use your favorite weapon. Like, make a weapon for every real life one there is. This is another reason why I like The Specialists. It really wouldn't throw off the balance of CS at all, if they are all priced and balanced properly.

I dunno, I've just always craved for lots of variation in games, especially ones that are repetitive like CS.

Nice

Yay my favorite skin is back =) If you look closely they have a motorola razr phone on their belt, I wonder if valve got paid for that?

He's wearing sunnies, woulden't they break and leave him in emense pain?

SAS is now the coolest looking model.

 

[OvA]

He's wearing sunnies, woulden't they break and leave him in emense pain?

They'd only break if he.....TAKES A BULLET TO THE EYE

SAS is now the coolest looking model.

Agreed. Gas mask always was my fav.

 

[-smash-]

Ughhhh, please don't stretch the page with an image...

 

[taroq]

Awright! L33t and SAS, the only thing that could possibly make this better is if you shot the crew guy in the face and his glasses would fly off. Hey, they could make it a pickup! He dies, they fly off, someone picks 'em up and puts them on!

 

[Captain M4d]

OMFG. I need to get back to playing CSS. Leet crew FTW!!!!

 

[Asuka]

Those models look so crazy good! Love Valve.

 

[Shamrock]

The Leet Crew has my cellphone on his belt clip.

 

[Emergency56]

damn this is bad new for a color blind player like me >_< now that guy really blends into the backround >_<

 

[CookieCuttah]

Yes, because it's the most important form of protection. Protect your eyes from the sun, augh its so powerful!

 

[JNightshade]

Definitely looking forward to this! The Leet Krew is... well, leet... but the SAS gets my vote for awesomest model EVAR.

 

[eklipse14x]

the models are finally coming back. it'd be neat if even more were made.

check out that barrel's badass shadow effects in the second pic...

 

[X-FacToR]

the sas model has allways been my favorite since before beta 7, this one is awesome, I'd like to see more screens of the l337 krew, wish they gave him a mullet instead.

 

[Dr. Freeman]

now i hope they bring back the Swiss terrorist model as well
and to counter that one, it would be the Spetsnaz(sp?) on the CT side...i think.

 

[Steven]

They'd only break if he.....TAKES A BULLET TO THE EYE

Actually they'd probably fall off unless he was a tard and ran into walls. They could brake off if shit blew onto it.

 

[Boogymanx]

Noone knows why he's wearing sunglasses? Look at the map, it's nuke. HDR, anyone?

 

[nutcrackr]

Looks pretty sweet. Do you think they will get together with turtle rock studios and release artic avenger with cs_survivor? :]

 

[James Isaac]

On a related note, I've always wanted game to have a lot of variety. I mean, I think it would really add a ton to the life-span of a game.

I always thought the best way to do it would be with one type of player model, but to allow the player to customise their characters' face/skin colour/parts of the costume etc.. That way every single person is unique, making it a lot more realistic, and it makes more sense if there's only one class on each team.

 

[Crispy]

Leet model looks 1337!

The whole point about the sunglasses is that Leets never get shot :smoking:

 

[Dekstar]

Does the Krew's glasses stop the effects of HDR or something?

Also, what if you were a leet krew, and you were sneaking around a map. What would happen if your phone started ringing? :O

 

[Crispy]

All the enemies would instanstly know where you are and would all simultaneously arrive at your position at the same time. And you'd kill them all with one clip. The end.

 

[TheMastahC]

Am I the only one that would NEVER.. EVER.. pick the leet crew skin?

Still more skins are always welcome.

 

[COALslaw]

Why oh why does it take a farking game developer a month (or more) to incorporate 2 measly player models? i'm so sick of crap like this.

 

[Homless Snark]

Why oh why does it take a farking game developer a month (or more) to incorporate 2 measly player models? i'm so sick of crap like this.

Maybe 'cuz they were also working on 2x maps, for 2x games, and these models, and bug fixes / changes, and a friends service.. and are teh same people making aftermath? not sure...

In that same month :hmph:

 

[russ_uk]

looks nothing like the last sas i saw

 

[Dalamari]

GJ Valve you ****ing ruined l33t cr3w

 

[NotATool]

The more there are, the more realistic.

Oh right, like how in real life the British SAS fight right alongside the french GIGN! Right?

 

[Steven]

Noone knows why he's wearing sunglasses? Look at the map, it's nuke. HDR, anyone?

What about dark area's of the map, he'd be effed then.

Sunglass' are a total nuesence in a CS:S situation.
SAS looks sooooo much cooler.

 

[NeoNight]

The glasses are gonna protect him from flashes! in fact his glasses are so leet that they'll reflect the light from the flash! :imu: lol j/k

 

[TonicBH]

Nice models. At least they decided to go by the 1.6 version and not the CZ version (which, while good, doesn't really look as good in CS standard).

Now hopefully the next things on their agenda is corrected right-handed v_ models and a new weapon or two (hint hint)

 

[Beerdude26]

The glasses are gonna protect him from flashes! in fact his glasses are so leet that they'll reflect the light from the flash! :imu: lol j/k

Bart walks through the shooting area and sees a script coach with
Rainier.

Coach: Up and atom!
Rainier: Up and at them!
Coach: Up and atom!
Rainier: Up and at them!
Coach: [annoyed] Up and atom!
Rainier: [louder] Up and at them!
Coach: [covers his eyes] Better.
-- McBain misses the point, "Radioactive Man"

Bart walks up to Milhouse.

Bart: Hey, Milhouse. I want you to know that I'm glad at least one of
us got the part.
[Milhouse explodes]
Bart: Milhouse! [a leg lands in front of him]
I didn't do it...I didn't do it! I wished him well.
[his head lands in Bart's arms] Aah!
Man: Stupid dummy wasn't supposed to explode yet!
Bart: [sighs] There's the _real_ Milhouse.
[Milhouse rides a bike across a road]
[a truck plows into him; its door opens and an X-ray machine
falls out, pointing right at his head]
Bart: [gasps] Milhouse! [runs up] Hey, you're not Milhouse.
[it's the Estonian midget from 1F16]1F16]
Midget: No, I'm just Milhouse when he gets hurt. [groans]
-- Stunt doubles, "Radioactive Man"

Director: OK, let's get the _real_ Milhouse over here, under the X-ray
truck.
Milhouse: [abashed] Hi, Bart.
Bart: Hey. Cool, Milhouse! You get to be crushed by a truck.
Milhouse: It sounds like more fun that it really is. Hey! I think I'm
lying on a broken bottle.
Director: Beautiful! Use it.
-- Unaccounted-for props, "Radioactive Man"

Director: OK, Fallout Boy origin scene, take 1 -- action!
[X-ray machine blasts straight on Milhouse's face]
Rainier: [lifts up truck] Up and at them.
Milhouse: Thanks for the help, mysterious stranger. Say -- I think
those X-rays gave me super powers.
[they stand around; Rainier scratches himself]
Director: That was perfect! Let's do it again.
Milhouse: Uh, these aren't real X-rays, are they?
Director: Good question! We'll check into that. OK, X-ray machine to
full power, and -- action!
[X-ray machine blasts Milhouse's face; his skull becomes
visible]
-- "Radioactive Man"

Nelson, Ralph, and Martin watch a man paint black patches on a white
horse.

Martin: Uh, Sir, why don't you just use real cows?
Painter: Cows don't look like cows on film. You gotta use horses.
Ralph: What do you do if you want something that looks like a horse?
Painter: Ehh, usually we just tape a bunch of cats together.
-- Clever film techniques, "Radioactive Man"

Homer goes up to a bunch of Teamsters.

Homer: You guys work on the movie?
Teamster: You sayin' we're not working?
Homer: Oh, I always wanted to be a Teamster. So lazy and surly...
mind if I relax next to you?
-- Yet another lifelong dream, "Radioactive Man"

Homer stretches and leans on the truck. The Teamster does the same,
only for longer, and sighs with more satisfaction at the end. Homer
does a _really_ long stretch, then sits down and leans against the
truck. The other Teamsters, not to be outdone, all do the same, only
more exaggeratedly. The whole thing degenerates into a big stretching
and groaning contest.

The director and his main man are seated in an office. Wiggum walks in,
whispering to Quimby.

Assistant: [on phone] Oh, here he comes. What is it now, Quimby?
Quimby: Nothing, nothing. Only the, er, city has just passed another
tax on puffy directing pants.
Director: [exasperated] But I don't wear puffy pants!
Quimby: I meant a tax on _not_ wearing puffy pants.
Assistant: Oy.
Quimby: I'm sorry. [sounding anything but]
-- More stringent than the "two comely lasses" thing, "Radioactive Man"

Bart walks into Milhouse's trailer and marvels at all the stuff inside.

Bart: Wow, you really got it made now, Milhouse. This is living!
Milhouse: [in a costume] Is it, Bart? Is it really?
Bart: Yeah.
Milhouse: Ever since I became a movie star I've been miserable. I had
to get up at five a.m. just for makeup. I like the way the
blush brings out my cheekbones, but it's not worth it. And
making movies is so horribly repetitive: I've said "jiminy
jillikers" so many times the words have lost all meaning!
Director: We've got to do the "jiminy jillikers" scene again, Milhouse.
Milhouse: [quietly angry] But we already did it. It took seven hours,
but we did it. It's done!
Director: Yes...but we've got to do it from different angles! Again and
again, and again and again and again!
Milhouse: Aah! [gets dragged out screaming]
Bart: [looking around] Yeah! [sighs]
-- The downside of stardom, "Radioactive Man"

The next scene of the film features Radioactive Man and Fallout Boy tied
up inside a wooden cage.

Rainier: Ach! I can't believe Silly Sailor beat us both up and
imprisoned us in his floating Aquaworld.
Milhouse: Jiminy jillikers!
Rainier: Uh, now there's no need for profanity, Fallout Boy.
[in the editing room, the clip rolls]
Assistant: Everyone in town has been gouging us silly, but it's worth
it: it's all up there on the screen.
Director: Yes. That Milhouse is going to be big -- Gabby Hayes big!
-- Appropriate allusions, "Radioactive Man"

The next scene is to be filmed in the nuclear plant.

Director: OK, listen up, everybody: this is the hardest, most expensive
scene in the movie, and we only get one shot at it, so we
_have_ to do it right.
Fallout Boy will untie Radioactive Man and pull him to safety
moments before he's hit with a forty-foot wall of sulfuric
acid that will horribly burn everything in its path. Now,
that's real acid, so I want to see goggles, people!
[everyone puts them on]
Rainier: [tied up] _Real_ acid?
-- The perils of movie stardom, "Radioactive Man"

"OK, roll film...tip the acid vats...and -- action!" A fire lights up
around Rainier as he laments, "Ach...only Fallout Boy can save me now."
The director calls, "Where's Fallout Boy?" Rainier gasps as the acid
flies toward him. "Fallout Boy!" calls the director. "Uh oh," says
Rainier, putting on goggles. The acid hits him full force and carries
him off, leaving a burning dent in the pillar where he was tied. "My
eyes...the goggles do nothing!"

There we go.
