Everybody is aware of chickens are essentially the most important a part of Counter-Strike. Valve certainly is aware of it, as a result of the developer has launched a game-changing, earth-shattering new rooster mechanic to CS2 that can change the Counter-Strike meta without end.

You could possibly kill chickens in CS:GO. You could possibly kill them with knives, you could possibly kill them with weapons, and you could possibly kill them with grenades. Don’t fear, these should not actual chickens. It’s all simply innocent enjoyable, we swear. In CS:GO, when you kill a rooster, it simply vanishes with out leaving a corpse. That is sensible as a result of seeing rooster carcasses mendacity round would make the enjoyable far more morbid than it must be. CS2 comes with an fascinating and downright hilarious resolution to this never-brought-up dilemma, although.

In CS2, for those who kill a rooster with a Molotov or an Incendiary grenade, it’s going to go away a roasted corpse, wanting prefer it’s simply able to be stuffed for Thanksgiving.

Evidently, the group has reacted overwhelmingly positively to this alteration, praising the cheeky humor Valve is inclined to point out inside its video games. Some followers even steered turning the cooked chickens right into a CS2 gameplay mechanic. Roast a rooster and consume its dead body to regain a low amount of HP. We by no means thought we’d use the phrase morbid twice in an article about Counter-Strike chickens, however yeah, this one requires it.

CS2 is certainly a looker, as new map leaks have proven, however Valve is relying on far more than graphics to hold the sport. We nonetheless can’t think about the builders arising with a CS2 characteristic that might prime the burning chickens, although, as onerous as they might strive.
