CS:GO to grow
CS:GO seems to be growing, 13500 viewers in the stream gamecast, you have to say about this?
because 1.6er are watching
source finals barely reached 2k viewers

2012-09-23 14:53:55
What it has to do with source?
2012-09-23 14:54:30
im mad
2012-09-23 14:55:51
true that, most 1.6 finals had 25-30K watching and the numbers were always higher having HLTVs.
2012-09-23 15:06:18
Fail. Thats like the LEAST i have ever seen to a 1.6 final. Your talking what i would like to call a "source event" = a small event
For IEM WCG and so on 1.6 had a lot more viewers. IEM6 this year had 74 or 76.000 viewers

This was a small event with realistically 2 decent EU teams (although VG didn't look up to the best of standards at this event).
I think 15k turnout isn't bad considering it was 1 online stream with no decent TV yet... SORT IT THE FUCK OUT VALVE! :D

it's hard to compare because CSS never had event like IEM or WCG, CSS just had an ESWC edition. But CGS had a lot of viewers.
I think CSS players are not accostumed to watch Streams because the scene were not very interresing, there were some teams everytime winning events, and confrontations between them were so rare, like once or twice a year. I think in CSGO we are gonna to see 10-20 teams very strong and at least 5-10 of these teams at each events, it will maybe take time for CSS players to start watching a lot TV and streams, but I really think in the future CSGO will grow ;)

there is no 1.6ers and sources in the future i hope, only CS guys ;)

2012-09-23 22:08:03
That matches like this will be getting minimum of 13k viewers
2012-09-23 14:53:55
WOW thats AMAZING thats SO MUCH more than 1.6 had. CS IS BACK ALIVE LADIES AND GENTLEMEN!
2012-09-23 15:02:30
stupid if u ask me but whatever..
2012-09-23 15:04:09
Its way more than 1.6 had in a long time
2012-09-23 15:04:52
lol
2012-09-23 15:06:02
LOL, 1.6 had 70K in IEM WC this year.
35+ in CPH Games
Source had 2K watching the final of CPH Games, one of its biggest tournaments.

What it has to do with source?
2012-09-23 15:08:32
its a low number for 1.6 and a big number for Source.
2012-09-23 15:11:33
Tell more about how 1.6 will ever have such numbers right now
2012-09-23 15:14:23
dont be mad bro
2012-09-23 15:53:35
Im pretty sure most 1.6 followers doesnt give a shit about all the smaller events. Thats why 1.6 wont reach any high numbers at smaller events and much viewers on big events.
IEM had 74 or 76.000 viewers this year... Were still in 2012.

btw this was a small CS:GO event. And yeah, I know this thread is old as hell.
2012-09-29 02:44:19
lol no..
2012-09-29 09:44:54
u consider 8 team tournament with 2 considerably big teams attending a big tournament compared likes of cs1.6's 32-128 tournament(with qualifications included?)
2012-09-30 02:18:15
Not big team pool. But this event has been pumped up with comercial from HLTV.org and cadred.org <---- :D
Everybody knows that this was the event the other organisators of the REALLY big events was looking at. Would it fail or would it be succesful? With this ridicolous amount of spectators there is no way IEM, WCG or any other BIG organisations are gonna take in CS:GO.

1.6 would easily get higher numbers if it hosted an event (but thats because more people support it at the moment, it would get viewers from 1.6 and CSGO).
The problem is that eventually there won't be any decent teams left to watch :( Thats why pushing CSGO away won't help anything. It's shown with some tweaks the game could be great, especially if they sort out the spectator mode.

you do realise source isn't GO??
2012-09-23 15:13:09
LOL? Almost the same shit
2012-09-23 22:24:52
You clearly don't know what you're talking about.
If you tkink it's the same shit, then you don't test the game, or you were too mad to pay attention on differences there are between GO and source.

when we see 16+ teams in next LAN tournaments, then yeah it is growing, but not now.
2012-09-23 14:54:36
There are no 1.6 tournaments right now so they watch what they get, people just watch this game because it has former 1.6 players (f0rest and GeT_RiGhT pretty much made name for themselves in this game, didn't they?), I mean, at least this are the reasons why I'm watching...
2012-09-23 14:56:40

the only reason why many of us stubborn-headed 1.6 player watch the final match between vg vs nip is because forest,xizt and gtr . damn right . i watched it because of them if not i wouldn't even watch at all. i am casual player but im fond to watching competitive matches :)

this game sucks

2012-09-23 15:02:32
no it doesnt suck. its a good game, u are just so childish that u refuse to adapt, refuse to learn the game...
2012-09-23 15:05:17
Then adapt to learn ballet, if you can't/won't, you're also childish.
2012-09-23 15:07:51
thats a nice comparison... totally idiotic bro..
2012-09-23 15:14:08
You won't, right? Because you don't like it.

i have never danced in my life before! on the other hand, i have played CS.. get it?

1.6 and GO share the same franchise name, "Counter-Strike", yet it doesn't mean that people who've played and loved the previous title will also like the latterly mentioned game. The name "Counter-Strike" means nothing. Therefore, even if "Counter-Strike 1.6" is named as "Aggresive Portuguese Anarchist 1.6", I will still play it and love it as my all-time favourite game :3
Doesn't like means doesn't like, regardless of the name.

It's still a first person shooter you moron. And it is VERY similar to the other CS titles. Comparing liking that, to liking Ballet, is completely fucking stupid.
Most people that don't like this game seem to be bad 1.6 players, or lazy 1.6 players, that cba to get used to a new game cause they refuse to be bad at a CS game. But if you don't want to play it fair enough, but stop posting in our newsfeeds about how shit it is.

Well, Battlefield 3 is also an FPS game. Plus, it has better graphics, includes tanks, jets, copters, and bigger maps. What? You're telling me to shut the fuck up then to just play it if I like it? I play whatever games I like and I don't play games I dislike, hence the analogy of not doing ballet when you don't like it is valid. When I want some FPS game that has many eye-candies put into a mixer at the cost of its reduced competitive capacity, I prefer to play Battlefield 3. But, when I want to play some serious FPS game with deep competitive elements and high skill caps, I prefer Counter-Strike 1.6. Seriously, no place for GO. To play it for money? That's inefficient since the prize pools given are not equal to the level of enjoyment. I'd better make money by doing normal jobs and try to satisfy myself with that money since although they are boring as hell (or maybe not even at all), they provide more money, than to compete with 10.000 people on an inferior game for less money that I most likely won't win anyway. Inefficiency of life is inefficient..
Similar? Well, I believe we have different definition of what are similar and what are not. Oh, are you referring to GO being similar to Source? Must be it, since I've also played both games and can tell that GO is way more similar to Source than to 1.6. Its resemblance to 1.6 are only the maps, choices of weapons, and the game title, "Counter-Strike".
Most people who don't like the game seem to be bad or lazy 1.6 players? Actually, it's totally the other way around. Here, I show you why.

Average players' skill in 1.6

Where is your proof of this? Are you just making up stats?
And battlefield is NOTHING like counter-strike, as you pointed out when you said it has tanks etc etc.
And when I said it is similar to CS, I meant as a genre, not any one of the particular games.

Bloody hell, Potter.. You're joking, aren't you? It's obviously just a sketch to show the rough picture of the difference between the higher skill caps of 1.6 and the more limited skill caps of GO. Seriously, I'm laughing my ass off thinking of how on Earth could a Brit mistake a sketch for a stats XD Are you really a Brit? Do you even know what stats means?
Well, BF3 indeed does have nothing in common with CS apart from being in the same genre as a modern multiplayer FPS game. What I was trying to point out was that BF3 provided something that GO also did, but far more superior. The same went for 1.6, which provided another different unique aspects, and which GO also provided, but also far more superior. That led to a conclusion: if I were about to choose to play something to maximize my gaming experience, I should just pick both BF3 and 1.6 as games that would fulfill the job and swap from one to another when playing as I wish, since both provided superior elements each of their own, than GO, which although was a hybrid of previously mentioned games, had far more inferior said elements..
I forgot to add that Sourcers seemed to hate GO far less than 1.6ers every did. I rarely saw a hate comment from Sourcers towards GO, and that made me to be more sure that GO resembled Source way more than 1.6.
What genre does GO and CS have in common? 5-vs-5 FPS? Then, you have 1.6. 1.6's competition dead? Then, you can compete in another competitive games such as DotA 2/SC 2. You want to make out money from a game using your already-developed-through-years skill? The prize pools given and the level of enjoyment aren't equal, trust me. You should just find normal jobs if you want to make some money, and find a girlfriend, then travel the world with her, if you want to enjoy life. You're not enjoying life competing and trying to find mediocre money in a mediocre game..

Brit mistake a sketch for a stats
They are not stats u absolute moron. I could draw a bar graph in paint saying that a toaster sells 10 million times the amount of apps than an iPhone., it doesn't mean it's true.
I don't argue with kids who make up stats, and think that battlefield is similar to 1.6.

Well, it really is not, as I stated how a Brit could mistake a sketch for a stats because you called it stats in #237.
Being in denial now, eh?
It's a sketch, thus it only gave the rough picture of a condition we're talking about: GO having lower skill caps than 1.6.
Nor did once I say that Battlefield 3 looked like similar. I was just saying that playing both 1.6 and Battlefield 3 provided you better gaming experience than to play GO alone, which was a waste of time.
You're losing and now starting to be deluded, aren't you?

think everyone see you're a mindless nerd arguing 24/7 on here.. calling ppl "moron" when you're actually a dumbfuck. And how funny is that you acting like you're any good but you're shit indeed desperate to get above div3 of sgl @ 1.6.. ugly wannabe
2012-10-04 20:10:43
he's kinda right, and it was a good comparision, you sir, are way to blind to see that 80% of the community isn't satisfied with the game, i dont know a single person that likes more cs:go than 1.6, but if we want to continue to play it competitivly, we are obligated to change, "sad but true"
2012-09-29 15:40:15
You are not obligated to change/adapt since there are more competitive games aside from CS.
2012-12-13 08:36:32
its such an ugly game i have 50+ hours on it and im trying everyday to adapt to it but its not working its just.... too ugly..
2012-09-23 15:07:59
why is it ugly? it isnt cs? what exactly dont u like about it? the movement is nothing like Source, literally. the recoil could be better i give u that, but the rest is pretty much the same thing..
2012-09-23 15:19:01
Movement: awful, pistols: P250 aka BaZooKa, maps: full of shit cars, trucks, boxes its retarded, recoil mehhh not that bad but i dont like it that much and that P90 is like i dont know its better than AK47...
2012-09-23 16:03:36
see? u just said things that are easily fixed! ofc the game need work, there is no question about it, but the game is good and has a lot or room to improve. if only this so called cs-lovers would see that...

2012-09-23 22:03:25
sir I'm too old for learning some new game which I don't like. I play only games what I like. I won't play something only because of valve or f0rest said that. I don't wanna adapt.
2012-09-23 15:09:45
then dont, and stop saying the game sucks!!! no one is forcing u to play it, if u wanna play, play it, if u dont wanna play, DONT! its that simple!!!
2012-09-23 15:13:02
but I'm exactly doing that, u're talking shits about adapting.
2012-09-23 15:16:36
than why are u always saying the game sucks? what ur purpose?! and im not talking to u per say, but also for the whole 1.6 community that even though they dont like the game, they dont want any1 else to play it! its so childish, why did u got in this thread to say the game sucks?! i just dont understand...
2012-09-23 15:21:11
Because we simply don't want our fellow 1.6 players to be brainwashed by some Source guys and Valve's "agents". They are trying to tell the mass that CS:GO is the next thing by saying some bullshit yet charismatic things when it's not. More importantly, deep inside the hearts of every 1.6 players, they know, and feel it; CS:GO isn't the successor of the Counter-Strike series; and I'm trying to help pronouncing that voice of heart :)
2012-09-23 16:27:59
"Because we simply don't want our fellow 1.6 players to be brainwashed by some Source guys and Valve's "agents"
Conspiracy everywhere :<<<
If you think that your "fellow 1.6 players" will not try the game just because you say it's bullshit, then I think you're totally wrong.
"and I'm trying to help pronouncing that voice of heart :)"
Don't really need your voice, because 1.6 is in the heart of all the players who played it. And I'm still playing it. But I want competition, I want matches, gathers, and I want people to play with all the time. On 1.6, this is not possible anymore, sad but true.
I understand what you're doing too. You don't want all 1.6 players go on GO for keeping 1.6 alive. I want that too, to keep 1.6 alive. I agree and I respect this. But bro, come on, you can't really expect to see 1.6 players stay on 1.6 just because you want it.
And say that GO sucks only for that reason make you childish and immature :<
And no, I'm not from source, I was just an 1.6 player that didn't like GO, like you. But I tryied the game, and I like it, don't mean I love it as I love 1.6. But I think that with some updates, with Valve that for once, seems listen their community, this game will become great. I really think this. Not as big as 1.6 in the past. But just a nice game.

Indeed. They want the crowd to support the game so that they are playing in 'the right game' which will lead to them having more money milked out of the game.
But I want competition, I want matches, gathers, and I want people to play with all the time. On 1.6, this is not possible anymore, sad but true.
You want competition? Then, you should play competitive games/do competitive things. 1.6 is a more competitive game than GO regardless of its current state of competitive scene. Why would you move on to something less competitive? If 1.6 is lacking the tournaments, then you may just switch to something of a whole different genre to get those, rather than struggling in a game which is for me not that competitive. That's just stupid.
Want to play competitive FPS game? Play 1.6.
Want competitions? Play DotA 2, Starcraft 2, FIFA, PES, or you can just do another competitive things in life like football, basketball, badminton, scoring girls, participating in American Idol, or British Got Talent.
Want money? Finish school and get to work, not searching for them in the garbages of a medicore video game competitions.
Want more fun? Use that money you get from jobs to do anything you want to!
Seriously, if you play GO, you're just being another one of those brain-dead zombie kids who have been gimmicked, manipulated, drained, and sucked by those video game companies to play their not-so-rich-or-even-not-rich-at-all-in-gameplay-but-have-modern-graphics games.
And say that GO sucks only for that reason make you childish and immature :<
Only for what reason? For not being similar to 1.6? Where did I state such a thing? Don't make up things. I accept new changes, and I want a new CS, but unfortunately GO isn't there to fulfill my requirement which is to have a fast-paced and accurate team-based First Person Shooter game. For me, GO = CoD + CS maps and weapons.
Not as big as 1.6 in the past. But
just a nice game.
Personally, I don't want 'just a nice game'. It's either to play a remarkably enjoyable game or not to play video games at all, and instead, to search for another sources of fun in life.
GL HF!

Want competitions? Play DotA 2, Starcraft 2, FIFA, PES, or you can just do another competitive things in life like football, basketball, badminton, scoring girls, participating in American Idol, or British Got Talent.
Want money? Finish school and get to work, not searching for them in the garbages of a medicore video game competitions.
Want more fun? Use that money you get from jobs to do anything you want to!
Seriously, if you play GO, you're just being another one of those brain-dead zombie kids who have been gimmicked, manipulated, drained, and sucked by those video game companies to play their not-so-rich-or-even-not-rich-at-all-in-gameplay-but-have-modern-graphics games.
And say that GO sucks only for that reason make you childish and immature :<
Only for what reason? For not being similar to 1.6? Where did I state such a thing? Don't make up things. I accept new changes, and I want a new CS, but unfortunately GO isn't there to fulfill my requirement which is to have a fast-paced and accurate team-based First Person Shooter game. For me, GO = CoD + CS maps and weapons.
Not as big as 1.6 in the past. But
just a nice game.
Personally, I don't want 'just a nice game'. It's either to play a remarkably enjoyable game or not to play video games at all, and instead, to search for another sources of fun in life.

Bro, you take your "role" too seriously ...
The only game I liked was 1.6. So play SC2, dota2 and all other games you mentioned is out of question.
I live in France, even if I'm half-swedish half-french. And in France, 1.6 died in 2008, at least for me. But I continue tu play it until the last event (well, not the last because I didn't go to the "Coupe de France 2012").
I want a fps. Not strategy like SC2.
In France, the CS:S community is big, and now they switched on GO. Upcoming Lans in France will be huge, like a lan with 28 teams, something I didn't see on 1.6 since ... Since when ? Since 2008, yes.
Here, a game can reunite both communities. I was like everyone, "wow". But I Didn't know if I'll like the game. I tryied, I liked.
I'm not just a "brain-dead zombie kids who have been gimmicked, manipulated, drained, and sucked by those video game companies to play their not-so-rich-or-even-not-rich-at-all-in-gameplay-but-have-modern-graphics games". I agree that the gameplay is awful, the movements are awful, the molotov is horrible and so.
But as I said, Valve seems to listen at us, so I think it'll be good game. The recoil will soon be fixed, and it'll be playable then. With this, you'll have to learn, to upgrade your skill for win, not just jump&spray&pray.
You just can't be such disrespectful just because others like a game that you don't like, whatever the reason.
I want competition, and I want Lans. Lans don't feature 1.6 anymore, they feature GO. My friends play GO.
I will not play 1.6 anymore, because it's Dead in France, definitely.
I will not play GO for money, I have a job (that I don't like, but have one anyway).
I will not play GO because I haven't fun. I'm seriously writing a medieval fantastic story, that just begin to be "popular". I practise sports, airsoft.
Everybody don't care about my life, so I'll stop here.
I'll just play GO because I want to play a fps in competitive Lan. And there is only GO now.
But, just that. I tryied a game, I liked a game.
If you're not agree with this, then ... Not a problem, everyone has his opinions.
Peace, bro ! :)

I guess it's helpless in France anyway..
But, if I'm entitled to give an opinion; if I were you, rather than participating in a community of an uncompetitive game, I would just leave gaming at all, assuming that games of other genre don't cross my interest.
For an analogy, 1.6 is chess, and GO is a board game. The analogy isn't to point out how superior 1.6 is when compared to GO, but to show that the previous mentions give you more concrete reward when you spend more time to play the games, which is for you to be getting better and getting more skilled at those games the more you play. While the latters, simply limit you, regardless of hours you put on the game. And instead, they involve the luck more because most of the time, they are random.
Board games are waste of time.

why are you childish if you don't like the game? I agree just stating it sucks for no reason is not very mature, but not liking the game has nothing to do with being childish.
2012-09-23 15:16:10
that is not the childish part. the childish part is trying to kill a game u dont like! the childish part is saying over and over again that the game SUCKS without even playing it! and im not just talking for him, i was talking about the whole kid 1.6 community...
2012-09-23 15:22:37
'Killing' is a big word. 'Trying to help the fellow 1.6 players to not be brainwashed' is more likely.
2012-09-23 16:30:21
Who are you to decide what brainwashed is? It's a new game being released, not some huge valve conspiracy, and the people playing this game are enjoying it.
2012-09-24 10:21:49
Who are you to decide that they're enjoying it?
2012-09-24 10:47:50
I play it, and I am enjoying it. Along with my whole team, who at first didn't want to switch, but after a few games, they are starting to enjoy it.
2012-09-24 10:51:05
Good for you.
2012-09-28 23:24:35
...aaaaannnnndddddd back to being childish. Good day sir!

Being childish by not switching to GO? Really? How retarded a logic can be?

You're doing all of the cs:go players a favor by watching it. Keep up the good work

tell me more about your game that has 20k people playing, top12 from steam lmao
2012-09-23 21:26:38
It's true...
At it's current state, this game almosts doesn't need brains or skill at all...
Why?
Recoil sucks;
Movement is completely different from 1.6 and Source;
The thing of balancing weapons somehow it sucks p90 has more power than AK/Colt, and as far as I know you can win more money with it than with AK/Colt ( should be the other way around );
Pistols overpowered like the dualies that don't have recoil on them, and that p250 with a power of an AWP;
And I have more than 70+ hours on it, so don't come with arguments about me not playing enough time to enjoy it...
I played it more hours than you have and I say it's not good...
Besides all versions of CS , I've played Quake 3, Quake Live, TF classic, TF2 ( not F2P ), COD MW1, MoH, BF3 and many others...
And this is the only list of the FPS :x
RTS style, I've played 5 games until now...
I say GO it's good for being a casual game... but competitive not that much...
I'm saying this because of it's current state...
If new GOOD updates show up maybe I'll reconsider it...

Some dude just put up numbers of 1.5 and 1.6 and got a random one. And how old is it?
2012-09-23 16:01:11
You really didnt know about those numbers ? lol. I guess you are new here. 13k views is nothing comparing to 1.6, but I'm glad that csgo have at least mroe then 10k views.
2012-09-23 19:33:07
So what? There were times when 1.6 had 100k viewers. Its not like its going to happen again. And yeah, I'm pretty new here
2012-09-23 19:35:05
Yeah and 71k against 100k is way off? - Wtf is this. After 12 years 1.6 is still capable of getting over 70k views in a final. I think it's impressive and it will take some time for the CS:GO finals to reach that.
I play CS:GO now and then. Don't like the gameplay, but it's okay and I'll give it a try. And that's even after being an all time 1.6 players for years. But what you're saying is just nonsens.

OMG stop bringing those 70k over and over again. It was said milion times that most of those wer waiting for SC2 finals....
2012-09-23 21:28:53
Not really because CS had way more viewers then SC2 on that event. And 70k was all day, not only on final.

U so stupid that u dont even see the screen which was already posted in this thread.... unfuckingbelievable...
It shows btw 68 which isnt 80 or 90k and it also shows that sc2 stream isnt ready at that time > many SC2 fans waiting for SC2 to start.
Ok so let it be and tell me more... Whats another event which make those numbers. Oh u dont know ? What about some big events like DH ESWC ? They barely reached 35K...
And the fact that numbers are significantly higher than max peak players ingame is just ridiculous itself...

1.6ers are watching because it's NiP vs Verygames, and i think they want to prove CS1.6 skill is superior to Source skill. So NiP is the representant of 1.6ers that's why there is so many watchers today.
2012-09-23 15:07:53
If the 1.6 guys werent playing the views would be half of what they are now.
2012-09-23 15:08:32
You realise that 15k is a horrible number for a final? Actually, it's a horrible number even for a groupstagegame. SC2 DH Valencia Groupstage had 50k viewers, the final and the first encounter between the two best and hyped teams of CS:GO reaches 15k only?
2012-09-23 15:08:47
Why do you even bother talking about SC2? They have more players watching it than 1.6 and go will ever have
2012-09-23 15:11:03
You do know that that's pretty much the reason 1.6 died, right?
2012-09-23 15:21:44
It died because no one wants to watch a game with the same players and fucked up HLTV
2012-09-23 15:22:46
Nah, it died because of the lack of globality. The viewernumbers when the best team played in tournaments was still very high, a lot higher then the CS:GO viewership. Also, 1.6's playerbase is much bigger aswell.
2012-09-23 15:25:34
eazy there mate, it's still beggining, and there is still no csgo tv, this is respectable number for new game
2012-09-23 15:18:08
Nah, this clearly shows that the interest is very low for the game when people don't even want to find out who wins between NiP vs VG, come on, this match has been hyped up for months now.
2012-09-23 15:23:51
Why does everyone keeps saying that? All games hit their peak during their first week of release. Why? Because it's during that time the publisher spends their money in promoting the game, buying ads on gaming websites, everyone reviews the game which gives free promotion, it's when the game is in the frontpage of all the digital stores etc.
There's only two ways to overcome the decline, it will only reach 50k players if:
a) Valve decides to change 70% of the game and drop the price by half;
or
b) Make it free-to-play.
Right now as the game is, players won't start to appear from nowhere, especially with fall a couple of months away, which is always the biggest period in gaming. With games like COD, MOH, AC, RES, Halo, NFS, Dishonored et. CS:GO already has been overshadowed by smaller indie titles, and when this major blockbuster titles arrive CS:GO will be buried, as simple as it gets.

IMO the game should be considered as open beta, where you have to buy in.
Also it will have 50%, 75% sales in the near future for sure.

It's not, HPE still might have a couple of people in the project, but they have pretty much moved on to Defense Grid 2. All future updates depends on valve.
2012-09-23 20:44:47
And when did Valve not deliver with updates?
2012-09-23 21:34:28

I've noticed it by judging by the speed needed to complete such minor updates.

It's great actually, they were able to put two-thirds of the CS:GO community watching the finals.
2012-09-23 15:21:16
The community is very small though, so the end number is still bad. and they captured a very small part of the Counter-Strikecommunity.

very low numbers for 1.6 standards, for Source players it is obviously a lot since they are used to have 2K watching their finals.
2012-09-23 15:09:50
yup
2012-09-23 15:11:58
Right now 1.6 players can even dream about such numbers
2012-09-23 15:13:15
Everyone was looking forward to VG vs NIP and it only got 15k. Kinda low if you ask me imagine if in the future it will be a source team vs a source team. It was a good first map though

it will definitely grow, but I doubt it will grow a lot. Actually I think they might end up having less viewers at the next tournament. ~15k in such a hyped final in the very first tournament of a game this hyped is not very good.
2012-09-23 15:14:11
^
2012-09-23 15:24:25
Wait till all 1.6 tournaments will end with right now are 2 left. And then talk something useful. And probably every players who knows about counter strike something knew that the final will be NiP vs VG so thats not very hyped at all
2012-09-23 15:28:13
Do you even know what hype is?
Also I am not gonna argue with you, you're always praising CS:GO and feel like you need to defend it every time someone doesn't like it. Most of the 1.6 players still playing have been playing it for a long time, so most them are actually quite old. I doubt you will see them move to CS:GO. Also Dota 2 has taken more CS 1.6 players than CS:GO has. Don't get all touchy because I don't share your view, I don't think CS:GO will be such a huge success as you believe

I'm not defending anything. The only people who are defending something are 1.6 players who are in denial. I just reply to a few people saying my thoughts and then it get a 50 post discussion with 15 year olds. I think that cs:go will have no more than 3 years of success
2012-09-23 15:42:35
But you seem to be in denial aswell. People tell you the numbers in 1.6 are higher and you claim they lie, when they prove it, all you have to say is "I don't get it"?

one good match (not even tournament) and CS 1.6 could have more...nothing special rly
2012-09-23 15:46:59
wihtout nip no one would watch but have to say the game with improvment could be nice and replace 1.6 probably as viewer perspective..once there is tactics and lot of game enhancement for competitive play and if the top 1.6 teams move to csgo

IEM WC according to multiple of HLTV users in here, actually they say 75K and CPH games 35K.
Not sure if true though, but if CPH games can get 35K viewers, so can IEM.
Also, I've seen IEM or WCG or whatever it was with 50K views myself, so yeah.

I said non dropped
2012-09-23 22:06:08
Okay. I honestly couldn't care less if its non dropped or not, it still had 75.000 this year rofl. What a total domination compared to CSGO. Such shitty game.
Please tell me more about how CSGO is a success. Wait no, let me help you.
Perfect recoil.
Perfect maps, right?
Totally not fucked up by fog/graphics.
INSANE graphics compared to nowadays games, right?
But the movement is so good compared to 1.6 too.
But the best thing HAS to be the 900 dollar P90 kills! That is fucking perfect.

Cs:go has been for 10 years or one month? Nothing is perfect, not even 1.6, and besides theres such things called updates
2012-09-23 22:38:48
Exactly, CSGO has been out for one month, so it should have shit ton of people still playing it. It doesn't.
Sure updates can improve the game alot, but in the current stage of the game it is horrible. It really is.
It might change in the future, but its the same with Diablo at the moment. Didn't live up to anyones expectations, and even with multiple patches/updates nobody wants to play the game. They have to do some really solid update with a ton of improvements for people to play the game.
Its basically the same story with CSGO. They really need to step up in order for the game to make success. Cause right now it doesn't look very bright.
You gotta admit though. A month old game that got hyped horribly much, with one of the first finals in the game, and with two of the most known CSGO teams at the moment got 15K views. Thats horrible! Even a normal day for a League of Legends player make 15K views. Even a 12 year old game made 4 times as much.
Its becoming very clear that the game is boring to watch and play, and doesn't interest many people anymore. Its all about the hype.
I hope it will become big, I really do, but it needs many big updates for it to do so. Also its very hard to compete against nowadays games such a BF3, COD, etc - sure the games are casual and not really competetive, but it has what CSGO has and even more. The graphics compared to BF3 is horrible.

You were hyped for a console based game? In that case for people like you who can't read, yes its a disappointment, but just because you can't read. Valve said themselves, its not going to be anything like CS2, its not meant to replace any of the following cs games. But guess what tournaments are interested in this game, more than they're interested in 1.6 right now
2012-09-24 09:13:31
Is that all you're gonna reply to me after that giant wall of text? That I mentioned COD? Oh boy.
Sure tournaments and sponsors are interested in a new 1 month old game. But they were also interested in CSS when it came out. Where is it now?
.. And when did I say I was hyped for a console game? I just said many of the current teenagers (basically everyone who makes the game what is is), are playing COD.
Game is hyped, it will have the same faith as CSS if they really don't step it up with updates. CSS had more people playing a month and on release of the game than CSGO.

With teams like ESC switched and Na'vi with fnatic on they're way, 50k viewers will be a quite possible number in the near future

sure, steam stats says it all, and dont come with that talk "oh they dont matter", sure they matter! no players = no specs = no sponsors = no tournaments = no teams = no competitive side =)
2012-09-23 21:57:08
There are tournaments and players, wake up again
2012-09-23 22:05:25
Pro players - agree
tournaments - agree
casual players - HOLY SHIT? 20K what a huge number.
Without 1.6 community aproval GO will die becouse nobody will be watching those PRO-zzz
15k vievers NIP vs VG is a disaster. Its a fact! Not my opinion. You can not argue with facts ! ! !

For a first decent match 15k is bad? Really? And like i said, where is 1.6 going with 50k only "casual" players? Without kids like you, so called "1.6 community" cs:go won't die, i can promise you that
2012-09-24 09:03:42

Considering that there is no GOTV yet, it OK, but a little disappointing, was hoping for 30k+.
Hopefully it makes Valve get off their arses to fix/promote this game, and maybe even make it free to play, as I would hate to have to go pro at cod bo2. WOT WOT

Give the game a chance, first i was like 'oh i will never play this shitgame' , but after a while i actually started to like it.
2012-09-24 18:53:30
I guess you could class 15k as low, but realistically the largest FPS fan base is 1.6 and until theres a big 1.6 team pitched against another big 1.6 team, the viewing figures will always be lower.
I think once this match making system comes out and GOTV (it better be coming!) gets announced, the viewing figures will rise and I can imagine the scene may grow as the game has a replay factor (gaining a higher world ranking etc.)

cs go never be a competitive game! people see the game because valve finish with 1.6
2012-09-24 12:23:33
It is already a competetive game. Stfu with this bullshit you are talking here.
2012-09-24 18:52:40
ye... 1.6 now isnt a competitive game... cs go, inst a competitive game to! because valve kills both!
2012-09-24 19:31:57
Valve is not killing both. Valve is a company who wants profit, thats why they promote CS:GO and not cs 1.6 which is completely understandable. CS:GO is a game who can combine the CS 1.6 and CSS players, so we are not 1.6 players or source players anymore. We are Counter-Strike players.
2012-09-24 19:43:22
valve only cares about money.. all people knows.. In 8 years after cs s.. they not able to make a nice game?? csgo isnt a nice game...
2012-09-24 23:03:23
I think most people are expecting the first CS:GO event to have 100k+ viewers, otherwise it'll die and "HEHE 1.6 4 LYF MEN #YOLO #SWAG #420", those are a bunch of retards.
2012-09-24 12:38:35
No, no one is expecting csgo to have that many viewers.
2012-09-24 13:22:33
whatever about csgo boringgggg
2012-09-24 13:13:56
CS:GO is growing more since NiP announced their CS:GO squad, f0rest will change the future <3

Forest is bloody insane :D He seems to have much crisper aim and a better control of recoil.

of course, the best player in the world

And that goes for both the "CSGO IS SO GOOD, IF YOU DON'T LIKE THE GAME YOU ARE A RETARDED 1.6 KID WHO DOESN'T KNOW WHAT'S GOOD" and the "CSGO SUCKS" people.

We can't really look into viewer numbers until:
1) A Spectator TV is implemented into the game
2) More events occur
3) Time passes
So as to whether the will grow or die, we probably won't see a good indication until sometime early next year. Some might say 15k is a good turnout for the first decent CS:GO event, others think its low. Whatever it may be, we have to consider viewing sources and how interested people will be in watching it after a few more events happen.
It's possible a lot of people watched the final out of curiosity and to see how a 1.6 influenced NiP team faced off against a Source influenced team. This interest may not be there for future events, but then again perhaps it will! We really won't know for quite some time.
