CS Global Offensive

[Mamora BAR]

So i used to play CS alot but not so much anymore and i was wondering if this game is gonna be worth the price.

Anyone purchasing it or have anymore info in regards to it? Any thoughts? Opinions?

I have access to the beta. It's pretty glorious. Worth $15? Heck yes. Worth 13.49 in the current sale? Hell yes. I was big into CS:S, and I like this a lot. It's really similar in a lot of ways to Source, but improved graphics, more streamlined maps, and better physics. They kept a lot of what they were good at, and didn't bend knee to the new version of shooters. The so-called "CoD Syndrome" where a game studio adopts ironsights and "breathing scopes" and all of that nonsense. Valve knows what people like, what made the original CS games so popular and that's what they've looked to improve. I'm sure the beta version I have is different from the full release, and I'm excited to see that.

Is it a good buy if you don't play CS:S a lot?

As long as you enjoy First-Person Shooters.

CSS is always a good buy. I tried playing it a few days ago and fuck did I ever suck at it haha. Can you buy the Beta right now Kirk, or is it just lucky that you got your hands on it? =P Also is there a release date made yet, because I hope to fuck they realease the new Half Life. I'd like to play it before the end of 2012 ;D

HEARD THAT!

From what I heard by doing a review for a college project, CS: GO is going to revamp all the shit that was wrong with CS:S. Improvements to make hacking extremely hard to do. Much much more competitive atmosphere and new types of games. I'm defiantly going to get it even though I dont play CS:S but because counter strike was the first computer game I decided to really play that and roller coaster tycoon... I would suggest this game if you liked CS:S. Also the new multi-player feature allows you to create a dedicated server much like halo which could cause some problems for people.

[Quarterman 1st MRB]

lol roller coaster tycoon, still play that sometimes. Yeah i'm excited to see the new game modes.

You can't buy into the beta to my knowledge. I've had it for a little while. GO is in the Steam Shop, it'll be released on the 21st of this month.

[Crackers]

it'll be released on the 21st of this month.

Sweet thanks, good to know.

[Mamora BAR]

actually theres a beta for it opening up on august 14. So if you buy it now you get into the beta for it on aug 14. I'm really excited about this now. Thanks all for the info.

[Marsden 1st MRB]

ya if you pre-order the game you get into beta on the 14th

[ClickClickahShit]

Sick game started playing the beta and can't stop.. I forgot how much CS use to make me rage so hard almost to the point of throwing things out my window..

[Marsden 1st MRB]

is still on sale or is it to full price again?

[Ford 1st MRB]

If there is any cross platform support (which I doubt) I'll be able to play with you. Pre-ordered today on my ps3. Couldn't pass this up for 10 bucks.

Otherwise, if anyone else plans on playing on their playstation, my sn is Vertices01.

[Quarterman 1st MRB]

That would be sick if it was cross platform, but I don't think it is =[

Ford, why don't you just get back online with a computer? Or are you to cool for PC gaming?

[Ford 1st MRB]

My PC is in my closet in need of a few upgrades.

You could send m some kick ass parts if you miss me so much

It still works, it's just really slow and I don't feel like messing with it.

[Quarterman 1st MRB]

Ford, just whore out your body until you get some extra cash for pc parts. =D

[Ford 1st MRB]

I could whore myself out to 1,000 fat chicks for $50 bucks?

No, in all honesty, my fiance says I spent to much time on my pc, so it got banished to the closet lol. It is in need of an upgrade, but I don't see her going along with that.

I did pull it out a few months back and did some more work on the BCT map, but I still didn't finish it. Maybe one day...

[Quarterman 1st MRB]

Fair enough. A happy wife is a happy life ;D. Hopefully you get time to finish the BCT map. So far it looks awesome!

[Ford 1st MRB]

Btw, if you see me login to steam, it's not me, it's Joona (vivid), so feel free to harass her. She is using my account to play CoH.

[Supa Hot Fire]

I've been playing the beta for a while now and I love it! Still feels and plays like CSS but with different textures.

The only problem I have with it is gun game instarespawn - shit gets outta hand haha That and the fact that my computer sucks so much doo doo that even with the lowest resolution and everything either turned off or to low it gets really choppy haha

But for $13 it's worth buying, you'll have a great time!!
