Tactical Intervention is a Free to Play first-person shooter on Steam, it was developed by Minh “Gooseman” Le, some of you may recognise that name as he was the co-creator of Counter Strike. I started playing this game a few days ago when AzzidReign was asking about games on Steam, I was looking through the Free to Play section and spotted it, so along with Azzid and Brinko, I downloaded and gave it a shot. * Winner of the Heaven Media 'E-sports Journalist of the year' awards for 20.Welcome to my first review, I usually report on news topics but I decided to do a short article on Tactical Intervention, which I keep calling Tactical Insertion. Tactical Intervention will be going into beta-testing soon and is likely to be released by the end of this year."Ģ001-2002 Pro-cybernews (Editor-in-Chief)Ģ004-2005 ESportsEA (Editor-in-Chief, Consultant)Ģ006-2008 ESportsEA (Editor, Community feature host)Ģ008-2009 (Editor-in-Chief, Consultant)Ģ013-2014 OnGamers (Senior eSports Content Creator)Ģ003-2004 Team3D (Editor-in-Chief, Consultant)Ģ010 IEM IV European Championship (SK Gaming)Ģ010 IEM IV World Championship (SK Gaming)Ģ011 IEM V European Championship (SK Gaming)Ģ011 IEM V World Championship (SK Gaming)Ģ012 IEM VI World Championship (SK Gaming)Ģ013 IEM VII World Championship (Team Acer)Ģ013 LCS Europe Spring Week 10 (Team Acer)Ģ013 LCS Europe Summer Week 9 (Team Acer)Ģ013 WCS EU S2 final / LCS Europe Summer playoffs (Team Acer)Ģ013 Riot S3 World Championship (Team Acer)Ģ010 IEM IV European Championship (ESL-TV)Ģ013 Dreamhack SteelSeries CS:GO Championship (DH-TV)Ģ014 Dreamhack Steelseries CS:GO Invitational (DH-TV)Ģ014 Dreamhack Stockholm CS:GO Invitational (DH-TV)Ģ011 Dreamhack Winter BEAT IT (whisenhunt)Ģ011 IEM VI Kiev EU qualifier (SK Gaming)Ģ013 FACEIT Sunday Cup April 28th (FACEIT)Ģ013 FACEIT Sunday Cup September 8th (FACEIT)Ģ013 FACEIT Monday Cup September 9th (FACEIT) "The average round should be two minutes, maybe less, so people aren't waiting around as much." "I wanted to make TI faster so people aren't waiting around as much between rounds," explained Minh. TI resolves the waiting issue in a simple manner: make the rounds faster. "They really unbalanced the game." With players camping at sniping points around the map, Minh remembers playing and watching games that took way too long, especially for players who died early and had to watch from the sidelines. "I hated how powerful snipers were in Counter-Strike," said Minh. But the game is definitely his baby as he is finally able to introduce some of the elements he wanted to put in Counter-Strike into TI. "Graphics-wise, I know it's not the best," said Minh. On the surface the new game very much resembles Counter-Strike in appearance both games run off the same engine so the graphics haven't progressed much. I was never able to put in all the cool features I wanted because the people who played Counter-Strike would about all the changes. "I enjoyed Counter-Strike," Minh recalls, "but I wanted to have my own game. For Minh it's been a labor of love, the game he wanted Counter-Strike to be but was never able to make happen or call his own. Now over a year later, Tactical Intervention is nearly complete. Add in the fact that Minh didn't have a regular support staff to help him and the one-year project Minh envisioned died a horrible death. But things were difficult for him as he now had to come up with an entirely brand new game on his own, from coding to map-making, with no pre-existing game to rely on. "And for two years, I worked as much as I could." Minh moved to Vancouver and continued the new project with a small 5-man team. "I moved into my parents' basement since I had to save money," he recalled.
Then he promptly fell off the video gaming map. "So Minh and Valve agreed to part ways on good terms (he still keeps in touch with people there), and he started his own project soon afterwards.
