clueless describes you....

"you like source, therefore you like simpler gameplay. How is it not simpler by the way, with no depth in movement and bigger hitboxes, less recoil, virtually no spamming, the list goes on. 1.6 is clearly the more dynamic game, never allowing CSS to overtake it in general popularity or in competitive play (lets be real, its never even been close..)"

So just because I like Source, means I like simpler gameplay. The fact that the hitboxes in 1.6 and Source are exactly the same (because they are, it's the model sizes that are different and the issue that the Source engine has laggy hitboxes). Virtually no spamming? There is a lot more spamming in Source than you think.

"Why did cs 1.6 pros move on to source and completely dominate within a few weeks... and then they came back and found that they 8+ year old game they left had still evolved a HUGE amount, and had an enormous amount of catching up to do. "

A few weeks, it took Salvo at the time at least 6 months of hardcore training to switch over. The 1.6 teams who switched were fucking horrible when they joined in the Source scene, some of the NA teams were fucking dire when they switched, and most of them HAD to put in time and effort to actually learn Source. Please clue up if you are gonna criticise.

"in every way CS:GO is more like source, you are saying its middle ground, when actually, its further past source in some respects, but that doesn't make it middle ground, that means its on the other end of the spectrum completely from cs 1.6, past even CSS."

That doesn't even make sense, if you are going to fight fire with fire please actually come out with some coherent points to make your case. CS:GO is nothing like Source aside from the map graphics. That is it, the recoil is different, the hitboxes are MUCH smaller than both 1.6 & Source, and the fact that the majority of it currently is swinging in the middle (proven by spray patterns between the best of both worlds).

Of course you will come back at me with some stupid dribble. You obviously have not played Source and CS:GO, and if you have what you have completely done is played Source Pub, and then played CS:GO and seen "achievements" and thought "yeh this is Source".

I understand that 1.6 is the better game in terms of some of the gameplay, however the majority of what some 1.6 players class as "gameplay" are in fact original bugs of the game, which were never fixed. I also understand that 1.6 has a bigger community, the reason being, you've had a great number of massive tournaments that have supported the game for many years. Unfortunately for both CS1.6 & Source, we both need to realise that the FPS Genre seems to be shunned, and both of our communities need to wake up and realise that there will not be any major tournaments that support either CS because we are overlooked by greater numbers in SC2, HoN, LoL currently. If either community wants to survive, we have to support CS:GO and develop the game that both of us want Valve to do, so that the two communities become one community and it being a MASSIVE community overlooking that of SC2, HoN, & LoL.

Oh really? so why can't we see any international events for CSS? Because they have more players on steam? or because i didn't count 1.6 ns players? or because their community reached amazing viewers numbers in eswc 2011? Or because valve broke the game and even the pros started to hate it and opened topics on steam forums?
I used to be CSS player too but after updates it got worse and i stopped played it.
