I haven't played CS sind version 1.3 in 2002, and I am an extreme elitist CS hipster. How disappointed will I be? :-D

I started with 1.0.1.13. Suck it.

Also please let me use your key?

LOL noob. Version player haha! LMAO go home

Beta 1.2 July 1999 baby :-D

Edit: Downloading right now. 4gigs haha wow. My first CS download was 12Mb and I copied it to my PC on a stack of floppies.

I see your Beta 1.2 and raise you a middle finger

Oh no you didn't

Summary of the CSGO beta experience thus far:

Pubbing with 200 ping on nothing but Dust, against POD Bots.

Unless you're scrimming, this is so unenjoyable. The last two would be much more tolerable if it weren't for the ping. I'm sure they don't have the server browser set up yet (at least I hope this is the reason, and that the final version WILL have one) but right now you can only do matchmaking and all of the servers seem terrible for US East.

Yeah this is horrendous. I bought a key for 20 bucks with the hopes of playing a decent game. Seriously, how can they even make a beta so bad. This game is optimized for noobs and matchmaking system like COD uses. 5v5 with bots, on the worst map ever De_Dust.
Just the fact that they have created the map De_dust, while saying the game is for esports, is a joke itself.

I can give the developers some tips: Remove all unecessary trash flying around, it has no use what so ever. Remove the horrific buy menu and add the old school one, make the players have more distinguished colors. Its hard to tell if ur shooting an enemy or friend.. + 100 other things that i cba write

Yeah, it is quite telling that Valve claims to be making this game for esports, and the first thing they do is re-make Dust which has NEVER been used in any tournaments or leagues.

Pretty sure I have a screenshot of CK3 playing on Dust somewhere.

I've been Googling for some sort of server list, but all I can find are servers for CSS with GO map versions. :/

Yeha it got stale really fast once every server I join had 1,2,3 players max and the rest filled with bots. Also don't get why they would use de_dust of all maps for the beta.

De_dust is not used in competitions for CS. Last time it was used in a proper tournament was perhaps in 2001.

Dust was an ok map. I'm actually not too familiar with the maps that were featured in Tournament play, but Office, Militia, and Aztec were my faves. God I hope there's a new Militia :S

What is the buy menu like? Does it have the option of text only buy menu like CS 1.6?

I made a blog ranting about user interfaces and stuff. Looking at you google.

(Seriously I had trouble using the new gmail. Some email messages didn't load properly + I dislike the look.)

You guys really all need to check out some other forums for this kinda info. They've already said the buy menu was transferred straight from console version and the PC version WILL CHANGE. As for dust being the only map? why give you a good competetive map like dust2, inferno, train or even aztec... I'm glad there making you wait... The fact they are getting constant input from previous cs:S pros is a huge plus. (should be using 1.6 players but whatever) maybe i'm just an optimist because my game has been dead for years.


I've been around since beta, but really who cares? lol

Why would making people wait be a good thing, when dust continues to be one of the worst and least diverse maps there is? The stairwell only changed pubs, it doesn't make it a competitive map at all. T still has only two routes and CT can still shut down both A and B with extreme easy. With molotovs, getting a sniper into B is literally guaranteed before any Ts can come close. The bridge is harder to cover because of the stairwell, but there's no reason to cover at the bridge. A is tucked away neatly with crossfires everywhere. The mid-big box to double doors is way too treacherous of a corner, as they have to account for a 2nd CT peaking the doors from B, and someone long range hiding behind the balcony boxes. The difference between this two spots is like 150 degrees, which is too much to account for. That is if they can even get there, because your guaranteed first man into B should have an AWP in which case he can spot the entire tunnel AND movement at the bridge/stairwell area. The tunnel, from the middle to B, is like 3 times longer than the dust2 tunnel to B and if you want to be aggressive, you can park a CT behind a wall to peak right as the awper in B calls it. Plus it's 10x easier for CTs to flash Ts than the other way around. The distances are too far for many T flashes to be effective, whereas a CT can throw a flash in every single choke with relative safety, and it'll be much closer range/more effective.

This is literally the first time I've ever brainstormed strategy for dust and I already see how terrible it is.

There would be more people playing if it was Dust2 or Inferno. Like I said, as it is it's just not a very fun experience to pub.

de_dust is not a competitive map, they should have re-done dust2, nuke, train and inferno, or even better, finally make a new map pool.

dust2 is there, it's just not available on pubs. You can only access it in a private server.

i dont understand how you can have cross platform play and still have it be competitive.

they should really update textures. if this game looks like source, i just can't see it selling that well (even though graphics aren't super important to me). guns look so cartoony

There's an ELO system. Valve thinks people will play nice and the ELO will sort out different skill levels.

In reality, because pubs/scrims don't matter, people will tank their ratings just to bash on console noobs.

I wouldn't judge the final graphics yet, just because it's still a beta. There's hardly any graphics settings atm and usually betas don't enable the highest settings anyways. I'm sure it'll be nicer when it's finally "done."

There's nothing wrong with matchmaking systems. SC2 has a matchmaking system.

Also, who cares what the buy menu looks like. You can still buy using keys.

There's plenty of things wrong with SC2's ranking system, but nothing is wrong with the matchmaking system. The one goal of a matchmaking system is to get everyone's win ratio to 50% with fair matches, while still having reasonable search times, i.e. make every match equal. And it's done a very good job at that.
