The remade levels like office, aztec and dust are true to their origins and games on these levels play out like you would expect.<br /><br />Ballistics are a bit hit and miss, feels a little different if you are used to CS:S hit registration. I've had more than a few instances of unloading a clip at point blank range into an enemies head only to have them turn around and pwn me instantly. Feels like the hit registration code needs a bit of tweaking.<br /><br />Early in my play i was just jumping into games via the console friendly big menus provided, but wasn't always getting into games with decent ping and was therefore getting raped. Found the old style server menu under 'Community Games' or somesuch and havnt looked back since, lots of nice low ping servers there and can also find games with the zombie mod which is an added bonus.Draeborhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12117372447379090151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3269180650852979103.post-14007913759539432692012-08-25T18:45:59.857-07:002012-08-25T18:45:59.857-07:00It may be better on PC, but the XB version feels l...It may be better on PC, but the XB version feels like a rehash of the old game.
