CS:S question

[Yellonet]

ToaAnyone that played CS:S (CSS is Cascading Style Sheets, BTW): Can you pick up objects and throw them?
That could be very usefull. As a diversion, or to flush someone out of their hidingplace... they might think it's a grenade

No, you wont have a manipulator in CS:S.

You have 420 posts yet you still dont know where the CS:S forum is? I dont understand. Why post a CS:S question in the HL2 forum its just plain stupid unless you are new to the forums.

EDIT: sorry chris, wasnt trying to be mean

That's not what I meant. Gordon can pick up stuff and throw them without the Manipulator you know :E

In CS it would be a really cool feature if you could pick up (and then throw them of course ) stones and other loose material lying around. Just think about it... that would bring a whole new dimension to the game.

On dust (doh), when I'm CT, I always put the silencer on the M4 and shoot the cans around. I have tricked the T's many times with that. I have also been tricked many times myself When you shoot one of the cans it looks like a flashbang, and as a reflex the opponents turn around, or panic (for .5 seconds).

yeah, that would be cool... but i dont think valve want to give more dimensions to the game, it is just a port to source after all...

I did

Anyway, you cant actually pick up objects but because of the physics its easy to push stuff to make them roll down hills. For example barrels and tires can be easily rolled to cause a small distraction.
