CS:GO
I haven't played the game yet, but for you who have played 1.6 for years and staying up long nights to watch events such as ESWC, WCG and IEM etc... Do you feel the same about CS:GO when you're playing it or watching it ? I miss those feelings for a game and want to get it back.. But clearly it aint gonna be 1.6...

Nope, not the same feeling not even close. But its still pretty fun and refreshing. Movement is something GO desperatly needs, its what made 1.6 "special" in my opinion.

Maaaaan. Have you watched any matches? if so, are they still intense? Is it more for COD, or CS:S players?
2012-10-16 04:06:31
let me tell how does it work:
teamX vs teamY, watching it for 5 minutes max and leave, look at the score some time later
or, teamX vs NiP, the whole match lasts for 5min with a 16 0 score
Overall, ive never watched a match for longer than 5 minutes
2012-12-12 20:20:53
this is right
2012-12-13 00:19:23
no
2012-10-16 04:03:37
Not even close?
2012-10-16 04:06:44
no , its more like cod/css/bf , matches are boring and the game is awful.
2012-10-16 04:10:08
Ahhh, h8 those games.

I feel like if they stopped focusing on the niceness of the game it would be good. Such as some maps are so claustrophobic while scrimming them you bump into each other so much, and I just feel like im being held back. I cant even watch matches they are so cluster fvcked!
2012-10-16 06:35:01
Loved to watch 1.6, cant stand watching GO for 5 min
2012-10-16 04:10:30
Just what I thought. Is it even tactical?

we still haven't seen any big event...
2012-10-16 04:22:13
As I understand VeryGames vs NIP should be a very interesting match.
2012-10-16 04:26:41
indeed, the final of DH Valencia was actually pretty good..
2012-10-16 12:16:57
Is the game tactical in any ways like 1.6? Or can anyone walk on a server and destroy everything?
2012-10-16 17:11:01
you can't just walk and destroy everything like in cs:s if you ask me eventhough many people say it's a run and spray -game.

2012-12-12 23:31:08
u find only money there
2012-12-12 20:08:56
People are so dam narrow minded. This thread is stupid.
2012-10-16 04:31:21
Hit me up then!
2012-10-16 05:06:11
I have an idea, why don't you play the game, watch some streams and see how you feel about the game.

Asking for peoples opinions before you even play it is stupid, as everyone has their own.

Also the pathetic trolls on HLTV cannot afford 15$ for the game...

ask dbie if he's playing the game...
2012-10-16 06:29:07
its not about ur $(s). people used to spend 200$+ for their kit to play a 10$ game.But now a days even a mere 15$ of expenditure is Unaffordable by many. funny or reality?

molotovs, the deafening flashbangs, and the claustrophobic environment of the game makes it a terrible game. But i play it still, for the lust of competitive play.
2012-10-16 06:37:08
CS:GO is definitely as not fun to both play and watch. I just seem to get more enjoyment out of 1.6

All i see in go streams are boxes, crates, sacks and other garbage. everything else is visible except players.
2012-10-16 09:16:27
NOT EVEN CLOSE. FORGET IT
2012-10-16 10:02:30
always felt asleep when watching cs go match

most of the times i don't know whats happening, too many random headshots, hard to see the models too

tried to be open minded and see few match streaming but still couldn't find it interesting to watch
2012-10-16 11:59:39
GO isn't that bad, but still i prefer to watch/play 1.6 ofc
2012-10-16 12:05:38
lol , GO might be a worse game indeed but most of the people here dont realize they grow up and the emotions you could have had 5 years ago when you were a teen wont happen again..

Why would you ask this on HLTV.org? You will obviously get almost only bad answer and you probably know that. The most people on here didn't even play the game yet. For me the game is fun and I have been playing Cs 1.6 for the last 6 years.
Compared to other games Cs 1.6 has never been 'a game to watch'. It's way better to play the game itself than watching it. Same for CS:GO. If you get used to the game slowly you'll find it better.
There are a lot of events coming up very soon like ESWC, Dreamhack and others so there is a lot of competition. There are more competitive top teams than in the past 2 years in 1.6. The game still need some fixes and patches get released every few weeks to improve the game.
The game is different. It's a lot faster than 1.6 and you'll need a few weeks to get used to it.
You can't compare it with 1.6 nor Source but people tend to do it. It's different but still Counter-Strike. You can't compare it to CoD. Everyone who says that has obviously never played CoD before.
It's not a bad game. I like it since it's different. I got tired of playing the same game for years and watching the same teams for years. Now there is a lot of competition what I find really interesting.

2012-10-16 17:17:57
I don't, not even close. But you have to find it out yourself.
2012-10-16 17:22:03
CS:GO just sucks.. I was open-minded, I even bought this game and played it like 100h. My resume: it's no fun to play and it's also no fun to watch. Fact is, we have exchanged a good game against a bad one. But we couldn't prevent it.

In 1.6 you control your spraying by moving your xhair and standing still.

In CS:GO you keep your xhair still, and you control your spraying by moving your character.

Whoever invented this type of aiming is a fucking moron. Same goes for movement, it was better when they realeased the game, but now they took everything away and you cant do any type of jumps to get away from fire. So its basically run/spray and there is no skill ceiling at all.

However, im optimistic they will fix it, if they dont its pretty clear to me that they fucked the game by purpose cause they got annoyed to community.
2012-10-16 17:25:51
What rofl? Have you even played the game?
2012-10-16 17:28:16
Yes? And i´ve been one of the most well known supporters of the game at this site. +400h hours in game.
2012-10-16 17:29:10
Ok but ,just wana point out that its a lot harder to spray in csgo that in 1.6
2012-10-16 17:31:12
Yes, its harder to master it , cause its random. There are days you basically hit everything, and then suddenly nothing hits, bullets just "disappear", and people running backwards and jumping are doing -3 sprays at their first day with the game.

Anyways AWP is fine ( fastzooming removed )

Pistols are fine ( p250 slightly op but not game breaking )

The biggest thing is movement , and i really cant find answer why they dont fix it since i havent seen an single person saying it would be a bad thing to make it similar to 1.6 or atleast similar to CSS.

I enjoy playing counter strike. CS:GO is not a counter strike game. It's another cheap CoDlike clone
2012-10-16 17:31:47
ofcourse not...
2012-10-16 17:37:21
No! I don't hate the game, but it's not the same like it was in 1.6 :|
2012-12-12 21:07:52
or you have just growed up so you dong get those feelings from games anymore
2012-12-12 21:46:40
im feel it.. but not like back in the days :) its not like 1.6 feelings when SK playing:D but when NiP play im cheering for them almost like i was cheering for SK back in the days
2012-12-13 00:27:33
Does anyone else think that watching demos on CS:GO is like pulling teeth? I feel like the 1.6 demo player was very simple and easy to navigate. the CSGO one is annoying since when you type "demoui" in and try and press esc to go back ingame, it stays on top of everything and you can't control where you're looking.... and it's just hard if you want to rewind just a bit, go back to a certain point, etc. it's just complicated when it doesn't have to be.

tl;dr, CS:GO Demo player needs some serious work. Also It would be cool if someone stepped up and created a coL Demo player-type thing that is compatible with CS:GO :)
