[Zaphod_]

That picture looks bloody awesome. HDR + leaves = good.

 

[Psycho]

Wow, I didn't expect it to look that good. But then again, I didn't expect all those remakes to look as good as they do .

 

[StardogChampion]

Ground looks too shiny.

 

[HiPNoTyQ]

so militia takes place around what looks to be a barn? thats cool

 

[kaf11]

I love the new militia theme. This map will make me want to get into cs:s again.

 

[Gray Fox]

I like the new heading. It simply looks wonderfull, I might just play this map by my self for a while to experience it's beauty.

 

[nutcrackr]

Looks hot, is this from turtle rock or valve?

 

[agentbob00]

Valve of course, Turtle rock isnt involved in any of the remakes, plus they worked on condition zero and militia isnt a condition zero map.

Although valve may have taken on some Turtle Rock employee's but i dont think they actually had the company work on it. Well beyond doing the Bot work anyway.

Turtle Rock had a hand in Nuke, Inferno, Train, Prodigy, Tides, and Office.

[OvA]

Wow! Looks way cooler than old Militia! Consider me pleasantly surprised!

 

[simon]

It's about time they release HDR for third party games! ;o

 

[MuToiD_MaN]

"New gameplay elements" huh? Let's hope that means more cover for the people coming in through the front, rather than it being an AWP turkey-shoot.

 

[Steven]

Looks good, I hope it won't be an AWP/sniper map like de_aztec.

 

[bigburpco]

Looks awesome. I take back my wish for wanting it to be a desert.

 

[Dekstar]

Looking quite nice. Change from the normal militia, but I think it's for the best.

Can you get up on those massive cylinders?

 

[CookieCuttah]

Can you hide in those leaves?

 

[D€vIL²]

wow, beautiful, im making that my wallpaper

 

[Quixoticism]

That looks amazing! Just beautiful. I can't wait.

 

[Asuka]

Looks awesome! Everything is PERFECT.

 

[TheMastahC]

I'm now going to go to the steampowered forums to see how many people are bitching that it isn't a straight up port from 1.6.

You'd be surprised...

 

[Captain M4d]

That's so...*explodes in pants*

 

[JNightshade]

Looks friggin' awesome!

 

[homeobocks]

Woot. Militia = win.

 

[EriktheBulldozer]

My jaw dropped when I saw this... and I didn't even maximize the pic yet!

It looks great, let's hope the rest of it is great too. They rarely disappoint me.

:bounce:

 

[TheMastahC]

You'd be surprised...

I wasn't. Lot's of people bitching that it runs really slow for them...

 

[taroq]

Effing gorgeous. I honestly wanted it to be an out-and-out port at first, but whatever team did this just made me eat my words. Holy crap.

 

[CrazyJeepDriver]

That looks amazingly good

 

[Bjorn Borg]

"New gameplay elements" huh? Let's hope that means more cover for the people coming in through the front, rather than it being an AWP turkey-shoot.

Or maybe it means you get points for flushing that turd down the toity!:thumbs:

[SIN55]

I wonder what the sewer system is gonna be like, with the rural setting and all....

It looks friggin' mind blowing!

 

[Dr. Freeman]

omg.
Militia looks so good in that picture...definitely looks different from other CS:Source maps :thumbs:
so after Militia, whats next?

 

[Naudian]

Wasn't expecting that kind of look, wow...

Cool, now I wonder when they're gonna mention some news on those new blur/depth/film effects for DoD:Source :E

 

[UltimaApocalypse]

Whoa.....heh, if they keep adding new stuff who knows what the next ferw maps will be like. And they are releasing these fast too....

Also I can't wait for some new player models, however the ones that just came out weren't that great. Guerrila Warefare looked like he was high or something

 

[clarky003]

Now that in my mind is a great example of how adaptable and long lasting the source engines visual competition can be.

 

[Betelgeuze]

I wanted the source version of militia like the old one(desert), but this is just amazing!

 

[MuToiD_MaN]

so after Militia, whats next?

Oilrig ...

pffffHAHAHAHAHA I couldn't keep a straight face, even over the Internet.
