CSP taking over
Lurppis is 100% right, just take a look at this screenshot from recent CSP version...

http://i48.tinypic.com/2crxeok.jpg

This is something REALLY apropriate for competitive play, and it looks good too.

1) Maps are clean (very important)
2) recoil isn't broken in CSP, it requires skill (very important)
3) movement is good, jump / duck and strafe are working the right way for competitive play, it requires skill to move faster and dodge bullets ( very important)
4) bullet reg, accuracy is very good in CSP
5) hud is clean, modern, and looks good
6) player models are correctly scaled (not too big, making headshots easier, just like in css)
7) weapon models are good
8) sounds are good (there is 1.6 sounds)
9) gameplay is much closer to 1.6 than anyother game available
10) granades are working the right way, very balanced and good
11) flashes are working the right way, not too overpowered just like in css
12) spamming is there (very important skill factor)

And the list goes on... All of that is superior in CSP, when you compare it to CS:GO. CSP is a Counter-Strike game, designed to be good for competitive play.

There is absolute no reason to play CS:GO (an inferior game) when we have CSP just arround the corner.

I can only see CSP taking over the scene, not CS:GO.

CSP is a way better game than CS:GO. History books told us a similar story with 1.6 vs Source. We all know how that ended... They tryed to 'force' people into Source (CGS, etc) but in the end, the better game won big time, and 1.6 dominated the scene for soooo long after CGS dies... Same story with CSP vs CS:GO... Valve and some events will try to 'force' people (the mercenary ones) into CS:GO, but it will fail just like Source failed, and CSP will be the future. The better and more adequate game for competitive play will always wins, and it was 1.6, and not its CSP.

would rather play csp then the csgo if 1.6 will not survive ;)
2012-07-31 18:25:54
We should really boycott CS:GO... No one should buy that game, in fact, I believe by the end of the month, we will see CS:GO with very low numbers on steam, probably even lower than 1.6... and it will probably stay like that. Like people pointed out, its just an inferior version of the game, why would people buy it? If Valve give us a GOOD game, we will play it, but if they give us CRAP, we will boycott it, thats how it should be, and this time they are giving us CRAP with CS:GO...

"8) sounds are good (there is 1.6 sounds)" In 1.09 you mean? Because in 1.08 sounds still with CS:Sucks sistem

If this piece of shit 1.6 community had any fucking brains they would realise 3 years ago this is the end of 1.6.

Everything about Promod the ignorant CS1.6 just dissed it(AHHAHAHAH PROMOD FAIL CS 1.6 FOREVERRZZZZZ) before trying it and now look at them all 1.6 is dead and your looking for something to replace it and its CSP.

Well guess what its too late you guys should of got behind CSP a long time ago because now Valve has bought out ESWC WCG etc to help promote their shit game CSGO as a "competitive game" you will see on the advertisements of CSGO that Valve will claim this is the number 1 competitive FPS game.

Dont blame anyone but yourself you hated on CSP, if you guys jumped on board 3 years ago this game would of update 1.09 years ago because the team would of had support.

Enjoy the era of CSGO.

"The era" of cs: go will have a maximum of two years. Why? Just look at CGS.
2012-07-31 18:36:31
What kind of support? The majority of the German CS community was already positive towards CSP in 2010 (release of 1.04).
The previous versions just got too much game-breaking stuff and that's why most people switched back to 1.6 after some weeks (e.g the invisible smokes in 1.08). The game was still inferior to 1.6. But now it seems like it became a worthy replacement for 1.6. I played the 1.09 Alpha and actually that was the first version I would prefer over 1.6 (played all version from 1.04 upwards).


I just read trough the comments on the news and articles about CSP on readmore, HLTV, gotfrag and cadred. I don't see any way how a more positive feedback would have speed up the project. The only thing that may helped would have been a higher and stable player number, but that's not the communities fault, it's just the fact that CSP wasn't ready to be a legit alternative to CS 1.6 and CSS at that time.

By the way: Where was your support?

I wasn't a big fan of csp but I can't deny that it looks really nice and I'd rather watch a competitive csp match than CS:GO. However, csp needs exposure because only a small fraction of 1.6 players will actually play it when released. CSP needs to somehow advertise it and I'm sure many would choose it over CS:GO because its f2p. So I guess I still can't see it going big but I really hope it will.
2012-07-31 18:33:33
15$ is f2p?

He said many would choose CSP instead of CS:GO because CSP is f2p

CSP was fucking shit 3 - 2 years ago. Today, CSP evolved and is better, but 1.6 is superior to it. If 1.6 is no more, CSP is a waaaaay better replacement for it, than CS:GO. Thats it, there is no more, it has nothing to do with the 1.6 community, its just that CSP project took YEARS AND YEARS, that was the problem.

The problem was that you idiots didn't get behind it who would you rather support people who want to make a good version of 1.6(csp team) or Valve money hungry cunts.

If there was 50000 people following there would but a lot more motivation for the game to improve faster.

How can a team feel good about every update which was a huge improvement have the community turn around and say its shit, you would have motivation.

We are the problem.

#7 you cannot compare Source(CGS) to CSGO.

Back then 1.6 had ALL the tournaments apart from CGS, Today CSGO has everything and 1.6 has nothing where the money is the pros will be there.

This promoting is useless. CS:GO is a bad game and CSP is worse.

I love to see that retarded morons who play Promod in lowest resolution. This is NOT 1.6 netcode tard00s.
2012-07-31 19:12:21
ahaha same here :D

Reminds me of people dressing like we're still in the 80's:

Please enlighten me how lower resolution helps your "netcode/reg" in CS1.6.
2012-07-31 19:36:00
MAN YOU KNOW WHAT I WANTED TO SAY WITH THAT ITS NOT LIKE THE HITBOXES ARE BETTER IF YOU PLAY LOW RESOLUTION

NOW STFU PLEASE
http://i.imgur.com/uIXLE.gif

IM MAD
2012-07-31 19:48:08
The hitboxes are not better in 1.6 if you play lower resolution. It's just that many players are used to playing with it from the old days, and new players use it cause many pro's play low reso.
Dosia plays with 1024, and he is clearly one of the best players in the world. If 640 or 800 would give such an advantage, don't you think he would use that?
2012-07-31 19:53:32
The hitboxes are different then.
Still I'm mad so BYE.

OMFG whats the problem of pro scene dying?!
for what you do this blogs/threads... you still can play the fking 1.6 and enjoy it...in ukraine there are still LANs,night cups...
just play the fking game and stfu... omg
just by saying that csp is good wont make that IEM,WCG and other tournaments will take it... 1.6 has a huge community in terms of fps games,and still tournaments said no to it,why they will say yes to csp?
2012-07-31 19:23:19
i havent had a chance to test CSP, there are no servers near my country, so the ping is too high!!!
2012-07-31 19:45:57
lol CSPROMOD is 1000000% better than CS:GO, NO DISCUSSION
2012-07-31 19:50:34
cs:go will have lots of players because the uk and usa scene is dominated by consoles and 15$ is a small price for a console game
2012-07-31 19:50:51
lol csp will cause world war 3. csp new death prediction system and updated net code will allow all the racist kids from all over the world to finally play on different international servers and duke it out with no lag. they can finally claim their country is best. prepare yourself for all the shit talking lol.

2012-07-31 20:06:12
wow it certainly looks good .. i would love to see 1.6 stay alive but if it doesn't CSP all the way .. GO is just shit
2012-07-31 20:25:38
Only thing i don't like about that game is sometimes weird animation. Sometimes when they ducking or begriping it looks like retarded kid trying climb upstairs...
2012-07-31 20:29:01
same in 1.6 ..
2012-07-31 21:03:20
yeah I'd love if they remove totaly begrip from CSP. Only thing I like on CSS you can't begrip...
2012-07-31 22:09:44
Don't worry guys when csp comes out all those haters and nay sayers will be playing it so don't even bother trying to explain just support the game. :)

tbh it all goes back to the 1960's "space race" between russia and the US, which ever game is launched first (provided it's half decent) will grab the market. this will be followed by a cold war.

LOL

Promod needs to partner up with ESEA so that lpkane can have it back on ESEA, it's the only way to give it the hype it needs to succeed
