eagle one have a bunch of tutorial videos now

source2 is still very new so I'm sure more will be learnt as time goes on but it's exciting to finally be getting into something 'new'!

Hey guys,
Finally got around to make a short breakdown of the Source 2 scene I made a while ago. I made sure I took a few WIP screenshots as I worked on it, so I could do a thorough breakdown later on, so here you have it.
This engine is really fun to work with, you can model nearly everything in editor, just like you could back in the BSP era, I really hope to see more engines (specifically Unity/Unreal) follow suit, as removing the need to use so many third party apps from your workflow really makes making maps a lot more fun.
 
(Had to divide it into two parts, as ArtStation limits the amount of characters per post.)

Yeah, lighting is an art form, more important than ever! Lumens is amazing, but you still need to know how to squeeze it's juice.

University degrees are overrated anyway, for many fields!

I've only played this game Friday night and Saturday and I already have like 17 hours on the game ?
 
A few companies in Japan gave their employees the day off. I can't find the same article but the other one had a quote that went something like "you're not getting any work done talking about the game all day anyways, may as well have the day off"

The Danger Zone experiment returns to the sun soaked hills of southern Italy. Between scenic towns and ancient ruins, fight to survive and be the last man standing.

Once valve releases a non-vr game on Source2, you'll see how amazing that editor is, it's legit the best editor i've ever used.
It depends what it'll come attached with tho, if it's a CS-Scr2 release you'll be limited to what you can do with it.

My body is ready 
 

Bought the deluxe edition, don't think I've ever actually done that with a game before. Excited to peep the art book.

Just got done setting up the desk helder recommended, should be perfect for my needs. Plenty of room thanks to that monitor shelf, fairly solid quality for the price.
I still need to buy a floor mat but damn does it feel good to not be sitting on my ass while I'm working on shit. 

Modern-day Miami could be interesting, but something tells me they're probably going back to the past again. The 80's theme of Vice City was likely the thing that people connected the most.
I think London could be great, it's the melting pot hub of europe, so much to grab and have some fun there. Maybe they can do the 90's this time around? I wanna storm inside a gritty underground club blasting europop music as this guy

Can't wait to play it in 6 years. 

It's out in two days! I haven't pre ordered a game in years, but I did pre order this on Epic games. you get the art book too.

The map looks amazing dude, makes me want to play CS again. Also, those stats are awesome, ~45/~55 win rate are also my favorite maps in any pvp game.
