Oh man, where to start? Imagine the chaos—everyone’s trying to bring back a legend. We’ve all been there, right? Counter-Strike—yeah, that game from way back when, early 2000s, if I’m not totally mixing up my timeline. So here’s the tea: this modding crew, Team Beef (seriously, who comes up with these names?), they’re on this mission. They’ve dragged all these classic games kicking and screaming into the VR world. Tomb Raider, Duke Nukem 3D—you name it, they’ve done it. Now Counter-Strike 1.6, the legend itself, is getting the royal treatment for Quest and Pico.
Team Beef’s been using this engine called Xash3D FWGS. Don’t ask me what it stands for—something about compatibility with Valve’s old GoldSrc engine? These tech terms always sound like another language. Anyway, they’re mixing it up with Velaron’s multiplatform client. I know, sounds fancy.
And here’s the kicker—cross-play and easy server creation, right from VR. Like, imagine setting up your own little cyber battlefield without needing to leave VR. Wild, right? They’re also talking about full motion controls too. Six degrees and all that jazz. But patience, my friend. They’ve teased this—what was it—a prototype video? It’s got everyone curious. But don’t expect those motion controls just yet. I guess they want to keep us in suspense.
Supposedly, they’ll roll out an early access version soon. You gotta be a Team Beef Patreon supporter to get the inside scoop on that. Yep, that’s the catch. Anyway, if you’re one of those folks who’ve been longing for a VR throwback, this just might be your thing. Time to dust off those headsets? Maybe, maybe not. You decide.
