Good thing they invited Torbull, hopefully he bashed some sense and logic into the developers heads.

Seriously. Hopefully Torbull suggested that Valve invite CS legends such as HeatoN, Johnny R, Ksharp, elemeNt, etc to at least get some feedback for them.

Counter-Strike: Global Offensive at PAX West later this month where Valve will be showcasing the game play and handing out beta keys to those lucky enough to nab one.


Soon my friend, soon.

I hope to god they don't try to compete with those titles, they're strictly pub games. CS is sooo much more than that.

But I guess no-recoil + ranks, unlocks and achievements is pretty much a given these days for online fps games.

The thing is that CS originated as a pub game and only got complex later at a competitive level. It is like how SC1/BW was just a game for fun until people started to play it more and more until it got to a whole other level. I can see Valve adding things in such as achievements, unlockables, some kill streaks etc because it makes the pub game more enjoyable to today's casual gamers. They could always implement a competitive mode where the mode strips away all the pub perks and becomes the old fashion CS that people know of.

People have their preferences. Just because they don't like the same game as you doesn't degrade them in any way.

I personally preferred CSS to 1.6, something about the crouch-walking and the fimsy aspect of the walls turned me off. I'm not saying 1.6 is bad, far from it, but it didn't necessarily "fail" as hard as every fan of 1.6 claims it to have.


CSS is the real pub game of the two, it has and has always had a small competitive scene compared to 1.6.

CSS is just inferior, both community-wise but also as a competitive game. The number of people playing the game hardy makes an argument when valve has been promoting the shit out of it while 1.6 has been left rotting and still somehow succeeded.

Also casual games ALWAYS have a strong following in comparison to competitive/hardcore games. That goes without saying.

Esport is what matters here, so if I want a good and fun pub game I go play TFT2 or any of the 23 COD titles.

How has valve been promoting the shit out of a game that's been around since 2004?? I've not seen that anywhere

CS is more of a competitor to MW than it is to BF. The first two are more similar, and BF is not at all like either of others besides the guns

it's also kind of foolish to assume this won't have a competitive side as well, and it's silly to discount how many people stuck with CS1.6 bc of hardware limitations

I'm pretty confident to say that even this version of CS could beat MW3 any time. And i hope Valve doesn't compete with these games (or atleast MW3)

What worries me when game developers make new games intended to be played competitively is that they overcomplicate things - the gameplay, the maps, the controls, the weapons. I always thought the beauty of CS was how simple it was, less time fiddling with different guns and more time being absorbed in the gameplay. Its pretty amazing that a mod for a very old game created by one guy was the preferred choice of online competitive players even over AAA million dollar new releases.Valve has to appreciate the reasons why this was.

I liked it that it wasnt wacky races with the guns. The economy feature worked really well - although I feel it could be a little more restrictive. I like how it started with a pistol round, then economizing early on, then an overwhelming majority using M4/AK, occasionally AWP or scout. The problem is when a company like valve has 50 or more game developers waiting to be told what to do - its no surprise that the final product ends up so complicated. Still hope it works out well.

oh yeah, and I hope to god the game doesnt end up like 1.6 is today oline - 5 minutes downloading stupid sound effects, server mods tinkering with the gravity, that stupid god damn betting feature and the rest...

Inviting only source players was a REALLY REALLY big mistake by the developers. First, simply because source isn't as big of a competitive game (it would be like blizzard inviting top wc3 instead of BW players when they wanted to develop SC2), and second because it makes the 1.6 community immediately look at it with suspicious eyes. If they had even bothered to invite ONE 1.6 top player (like f0rest, neo, markeloff) or legend (like Heaton, xeqtr, spawn, ksharp, potti), it would have made a world of difference to the 1.6 community.

http://www.hiddenpath.com/contact/

Thats hidden path's (developers of the game) contact info. I suggest everyone send them an email telling them they're dissapointed that no 1.6 players were invited to provide feedback.
