There won't be any "big port" or "big update", that already happened when China got their servers (Perfect World)
yeah we are playing on devoloped source one but we mechanics will change in source 2 big difrence try hafl life two or three

You dont understand, what could be improved by Source 2 already has.

Source 2 was made for Dota 2 which is MOBA game and not FPS, because of that not everything will suit the CSGO so it uses modified engine that has parts of both Source 1 and 2

Panorama was the "source 2" update

There won't be a big jump like there in from Half life 1 and 2 since CSGO doesnt use the 1998 Source 1, it uses the modified Source 1 that is still used.

The only "improvement" you can expect is Vulkan compatibility and possible DX11 upgrade, and that won't be much, just slightly more fps or slightly better graphics (see new shaders :P)

I think it will totally refresh game, but I'm afraid about new mechanics ;/ Everyone are used to CS what is right now, and of course new Engine means new problems.

It's going to largely be just for eye candy, not the kind this community cares about since it's not the one you can trade for hundreds of dollars.

That aside, this game doesn't really need it, especially when you have people out there who are adamant about playing the game on the lowest possible settings using resolutions from 2001 on a high end system. No wonder they're taking their time with that.

Will be better bc it's will support vulkon but outside that things will change like the movement/physic learning new smokes bc it's not just using source 1 engine for that havok engine

Valve never said they ll ever do a FULL port to source 2

Ppl think jumping from source 1 to source 2 is like jumping from goldSRC to source

Source 2 is just a modification of the source engine,not a entirely new engine ...
