2012-06-08 22:25:30

2012-06-08 22:34:30

Hm, so many announces. Looks like the organizers don't believe in CSGO after when they seen this game in action.
2012-06-08 23:04:27
Yeah, because CS:GO is not in Beta.
2012-06-09 00:33:16
What you mean? I didn't understood.
2012-06-09 11:55:11
CS:GO is not an option for now because it's not finished and it has a lot of bugs - not ready for competition.
2012-06-10 01:49:24
Ah ok, i usnderstood now. Yes, maybe you are right.
2012-06-10 09:48:39
