Counter Strike: Global Offensive

[Farobi]

I am in love with this game! OMG, it's like taking over my life despite me being terribad at it. The weapon skins -- THE WEAPON SKINS!!! I have such a bad laptop that lags almost all the time in online matches but I can't get off sometimes, haha.

Does anyone here have CSGO too?

Personally, this game is honestly the worst in the Counter Strike series. Source was better, and will always be better. I dont understand the point of skins, this isn't TF2 or DOTA 2, this is a 15 dollar game. In CS:S I could go and get skins that replaced the animations and the actual gun itself for absolutely free, and now we have to waste money on splotches of paint. The point of Counter Strike is a fun tactical FPS, and the game play isn't really as fluid as it used to be. I mean play CS:S and you can see how less floaty it is, it honestly makes matches much more fair. Another problem is that this game likes to borrow from CoD (We CS players play CS because it makes us feel supreme) so look at CS:GO and you'll see a game that likes to borrow elements from CoD. I mean look at the map packs, the stickers, the "Camos"(Skins). Honestly its sickening at times, and I swear I am the only one who feels this way about the game. But that's my two cents.

I get my skins through betting in CSGOLounge, and the ones I aim for usually cost less than a $1, which is pretty nice :] I get my Steam funds through selling item drops in the game (boxes, skins etc), without really touching any outside value except for TBT Bells. I really want to try out Source though, I'll have to wait for it to be on sale since I'm pretty cheap xD

Source is the worst game, there's a reason it never seriously took off competitively. GO however moves the game back into the 1.6 direction, and as a result, it's growing very quickly as an esport. ESL One last week saw 3-400,000 viewers. There's nothing wrong with skins, it doesn't detract from the gameplay at all. In fact it helps put money into the competitive scene, and also provides income for talented designers.

If you're the only one who feels that way about the game, then maybe you're wrong.

ps. I have a Stattrak Balisong, really want a nice AWP skin though.

I have it, but I never could get into it much. It's fun to play on casual servers for a while but I couldn't get into competitive if my life depended on it.

Bump because this game is awesome but I'm still a Silver.

If anyone wants to buy CSGO, contact me first. You can buy it cheaper through me since the Philippine Store is selling a much cheaper copy compared to international ones (PHP store is less than ~$10, NA is $15 // pm if interested ).

But on topic, what are your favorite maps? Dust 2 is a great map but it's too overrated since I keep on getting matched on it in Competitive. Cache and Overpass are pretty underrated. I like Inferno too, but Nuke is getting meh since I suck at it at Terrorist side.

 

[KarlaKGB]

I really like Cache, it's probably the map I know best after dust2. Despite nuke being a staple of competitive cs for a decade, I still don't really know the map.

You can frequently find it for 3 TF2/Dota Keys on SteamTrades. 1 key = $2.49 usually.

I went there and most of the threads selling it are for 4-5 keys. The latest one that was selling it for 3 keys was a month ago, so I think my price seems fair enough.

Frequently =/= all the time lol
It goes on sale on Steam for $3.74 several times a year (same with all of Valve's titles, like Half-Life), so you can USUALLY (this is a key word here, please take note) find it for 2-3 keys. Depending on the seller. If you pay more than that, you're being ripped off.

W3W guys keep this on topic please


I just got 29-4-9 in freaking Nuke lately, top fragger. The other team kinda sucks but I'm surprised that my K-D ratio was pretty awesome.
