The reason why there's no real-time reflections in Counter-Strike source 2 because it can give you at a competitive advantage over people that have it turned off
You know, even without the parallax reflections, CSGO nuke still looks pretty good. That's an unfair representation of shadows, though. Source 1 had that kind of real-time shadow, too.
they will make 2 big updates for source 2 and tease a third update but never release it and then 16 years later they will make a completely new engine called source2²
Two half life games are on the roadmap for valve. One Regular and one VR oriented. No one knows when they plan to release them but they're actively being worked on. My guess would be that the VR game would be released alongside the new Index 2 or shortly after (Again Valve Time so 1-2 years). The other one I had no clue about
SSR is possible but there hasnt been an opportunity yet, HLA didnt really need it and needed to focus on good performance more since it was a VR game, and cs2 is competitive so graphics arent given the main focus and needs as high fps as possible. idk about rt tho

@@Archman155They’re using SSR, but only for water effects. CS2 also supports Ray tracing but only for the hammer tool. The reason why they don’t want to use SSR and RT in Half-Life Alyx because as you already said, it’s good for performance. VR game needs to render twice for both lens, they downgraded many aspects in term of graphics to make it runs good on any PCs.

its not an engine comparison, its games comparison. I wonder when people will learn what does the "engine" stands for... 🤦🏿♂️ Most of the things shown here are possible to code in S1 engine so an actual accurate comparison video between these two engines would be recording the SDK which is not available for public yet when it comes S2.
Plenty of these things come standard in Source 2, without extra coding needed. For example, the parallax corrected cubemaps, along with the rest of the rendering engine. And the things that were specifically coded, were probably easier to code in Source 2 than it would be in Source 1.
@@vibaj16 "were probably easier to code in Source 2 than it would be in Source 1" Not at all, I'm a c++ programmer and have worked in both old and new engines made using that language and coding in many of them, is very similar, even if the engines are decades apart. Coding in c++ in 2004, is not that much different than coding in c++11 or later in 2024, just a few things became easier, like for example now having smart pointers, move constructors and range based for loops but is not that much easier that you can say "working on the older engine code was very hard!".

@@Argoon1981 I meant that Source 2 has new tools your code can use, so you won't have to do as much from scratch. For example, the smoke: Source 2 probably has more volumetric rendering tools and features, which the devs used to make the smoke for CS2. Making the same effect in Source 1 would require you to code some of those features from scratch.

I think I'm gonna have to start agreeing with the people saying Source 2 has no style and looks like Unreal. Even with more realistic, well, everything, the smoothness of the lighting and flatness of textures take you out of the game. Should the word be Disney-ification? Maybe Fortnite-ification? I've never really liked the graphical feel of modern Unreal Engine games compared to Source 1. Source 1 always seemed properly as grungy as real life, whereas engines with lighting like Unreal Engine, well, seem unreal. And I thought that might've been the point, but this does not fit Valve games, in my opinion. Also, geez that water(7:23) is Disney-cartoony colored as hell!
You have to just stop and appreciate that valve was way ahead of its time when it came to source.

Love that you added the Half-Life comparisons, instant nostalgia

Only max 1 light source per map though..
bro playing half life 3 before gta 6
I really love the Source 2 water. Seeing stuff on top of the water move when a character is wading through it is amazing. It’s so interactive
half life 2 source 1 explosion i think still has the best "pop" sound i expect to hear from a grenade, the others sound too bass boosted
CS2 definitely isn't the best example of bounce physics since the bounces are intentionally made to match Source 1
I agree. I would to see Source 2 bounce physics apply on those Half Life 1 Assassins as well.
1:34 I know this is gonna sound weird, but... that fire looks sexy.
pyrosexual
I know this is gonna sound weird, but… your comment looks sexy.
freaky fire
It literally looks the most cartoony fire.I think left 4 dead-2 has the best fire effect in my opinion.
Honestly, I like the fire and explosions of Source 1 more. But, that's probably more due to the more 'realistic' art direction than engine stuff.
Can't wait to see what Valve do with Source 3
You already know they can't count that high.
@@pepperbytez8128 they just gona make a huge upgrade to source 2

Nah they just gonna name it Source 2 Episode 2
The water in Source 2 alone makes me *thirsty.* 💦
I guess you could say the souce engine lineage is the "source" of valve's successful games
I think CS2 legitimately has the best water sim in the gaming space right now
maybe we dont have hl3 because valve has been too busy making accurate algae simulation to put in the corner of a map which no one will notice lmao

You just compared games running on those engines, not engines itself. Feature in game is not necessarily an engine feature
2:22 *Me when the telephone rings, but I'm home alone:*
Do goldscr vs source 2
I want to drink source 2 water
blood in cs2 looks awesome
Source 2 is just so beautiful.
Remember you are comparing 2004 vs 2014 engine
in reality source 2 was finished in development in 2020, 2014 is where development began
the reflections look to me like they are just higher resolution cube maps, and could (probably?) be achievable on source 1 aswell
They are parallax corrected, which Source 1's were not

yeah it was so ahead of its time and has aged well, source2 looks very promising cant wait to see what they can achieve in the engine
