Since independent journalist Richard Lewis reported that Valve will launch Counter-Strike 2, a game that will come with the company’s next-gen engine Source 2, at the end of March, a plethora of fans, pros, and content creators have been excited about what this could mean for the franchise. FaZe Clan’s CS:GO star rifler Twistzz, however, isn’t buying all the hype.
“I think people are overreacting really bad right now with Source 2,” Twistzz said on ESL Pro League season 17‘s casting couch after his team FaZe Clan defeated Ninjas in Pyjamas yesterday. “I think Source 2 is a main update to help them mesh the maps better together, like fix texture problems or any issues. On Overpass, for example, if you’re walking along the left wall on Long, you’ll get stuck. I think issues like that are the ones that will get fixed. Maybe some grenade bugs or maps. Honestly, if you look at a map like Tuscan, it feels like the limit of what Source 1 can accomplish.”
