Oh man, where do I even start? So, get this—soon you can actually dive back into the chaos of Counter-Strike, but in VR. I mean, picture it: you’re in the game, on Quest and Pico headsets, all thanks to these wizards called Team Beef. Seriously, what a name. They’ve been up to all sorts of hijinks bringing classics like Tomb Raider and Quake 4 into VR. Honestly, didn’t even know Duke Nukem 3D was something I missed until now.
Anyway, they’re taking on Counter-Strike 1.6 now. Yeah, that iconic one from 2000. I remember the first time I played it—it was wild. Felt like a lifetime ago, and now, they’re rebuilding it for VR. They’re using something called Xash3D FWGS. Sounds fancy, right? It’s some independent engine that gels with Valve’s GoldSrc. At least that’s what Team Beef mentioned. Maybe you know what that means.
Oh! And they’re talking about cross-play and crafting servers right from the VR experience. How cool is that? In-game server creation! Who would have thought?
They’re teasing on Patreon now, and if you’re one of their lucky backers, you might even get a sneak peek. I saw their teaser—it doesn’t have all the bells and whistles yet, but man, you can already feel the nostalgia creeping in. And hey, maybe soon you’ll be ducking bullets in your living room. I dunno, but I’m excited. Or distracted. Who can tell?
