That will definately depend on the efficiency of those guns and not something you can state before you've seen/tried the game.
I'm also an oldschool 1.6 player and this is awesome news - I keep comming back to CS and have played it every year since 2001 or something, simply the best FPS for me.
I prefer the CS model with rounds to the deathmatch, constant respawn style seen in most popular FPS games today. Also the maps being less like an open battlefield and more like the oldschool CS maps (D2, Inferno, Aztec).
Would be soo awesome if they actually made this new game almost EXACTLY like 1.6 only with better grapichs. I think it's popularity even over time is a testimony that they "got something right" when figuring out how the guns and moving should work in a game. CS is the FPS game I've played where you really can see your skill improving, even after a long time playing. Which is why you don't even needed all the ranks/levels and leaderboard for it to stay popular.
Also I think cross-platform play is a bad idea from a business perspective. Us PC users will simply own the platform players to an extend that makes the game too hard and unplayable for the normal console dude who want a few frags. It will be like EZ bots running around the maps
