>What's the best Counter Strike

Unironically CS GO. Anons just don't like it because they fucking suck at it.

>>14641973

But unlike 1.6 and CSS GO isn't actually any fun.

>>14642062

Git gud.

I propose that every edition that did not come with cs_mansion is shit.

>>14641973

>>14642078

unadvanced bait

the ping for cs 1.6 servers are insane in my region so i cant play them. i miss playing maps like discounter and mansion.

>>14642102

Post rank.

>>14642150

i don't play cs:go because i'm not a retarded 12 year old, sorry

>>14642160

Thanks for proving my point.

>>14642164

There are non-Valve matchmaking services if you're really that much of a purist.

It really is CSGO, at least for 5v5 matches.

CZ has the best hostages though.

Has anyone else been getting raped by the bully hunters??

>>14641940

>best counter strike

1.5

>>14641940

>What's the best Counter Strike?

Operation Flashpoint.

>>14642177

>if you're really that much of a purist.

It's not about being a purist, it's just that 64 tick servers are dogshit. The game released with 102 tick servers if memory serves (definitely over 64) and Valve downgraded them because they are greedy, skin making kikes.

CSGO makes Source look like a fucking masterpiece. It's a rushed console port that bombed hard on the consoles. They salvaged it only by turning it into esports bullshit with lootboxes.

Fuck CSGO.

>>14642236

>no night vision goggles

Now lad everyone knows they were completely useless. There's no need to lie to shit on GO.

>>14641973

or maybe the gane is shit because all of the guns aren't even pinpoint accurate on the first shot, and snipers are inaccurate while scoping the first halfsecond

>>14642252

>yeah but there's no flashlight to compensate because the f key needs to be used to inspect things like pic related because some kid bought it with mommys money

That's gay as shit no argument here.

>>14642240

I've used NVG to compensate for a broken dimmed screen while playing css, so it is useful. Also dark maps, not having the flash light making you obvious and being able to see at the same time would give you a big advantage.

>>14642252

Skins do not affect gameplay. They're jewish as all shit but you can't dismiss an entire game on the basis of cosmetics.

>>14642224

Now that you mention it I think it might actually have come with higher tick servers and yes it's a jewish as fuck move from Valve but I've come to expect that.

>>14642249

>or maybe the gane is shit because all of the guns aren't even pinpoint accurate on the first shot, and snipers are inaccurate while scoping the first halfsecond

These are both balancing features, if you learn your spray patterns you'll have acceptable accuracy with damn near any gun. The games were much more cancerous when you could AWP perfectly from the second you scoped in.

>>14642252

>shit weapons (mp9, mag7 and sawed off are gay) and shit modding community

CSGO has the most variety in viable weapons of any counter strike, you'd know this if you actually played the damn game. Also the mag7 is generally the best shotgun available. You're also ignoring the higher kill rewards and niche uses of shotguns and SMGs they aren't designed to replace rifles.

>yeah but there's no flashlight to compensate because the f key needs to be used to inspect things like pic related because some kid bought it with mommys money

Their actual logic in removing it is something to do with it being abusable but they claimed that for sprays too and then readded them for money. I wouldn't put it past Valve to start selling custom flashlights at this point.

>>14642236

>no riot shield

Pretty useless outside of memes.

>no night vision goggles

What?

>no VIP

It was fun but it has no place in a competitive game since the defending team is always at a major disadvantage.

>no func_vehicle

Probably exists on a custom server somewhere and again its just memes. If you want to actually play a serious game instead of a poor man's gmod you're better off with Global Offensive, if you want memes then play gmod.

>can't put skins of your choice

Cosmetics don't affect gameplay.

You're also ignoring objective improvements like hostages you carry instead of having to micromanage their pathing.

>>14642293

Can you elaborate on how missing is a balance feature?

>>14642334

Learn to play and you won't have a problem hitting people. The removal of first shot perfect accuracy is to stop people using weapons with high armor piercing as instant kill guns when holding corners, it adds into the active and successful attempt CSGO made to break away from AK/M4/Deagle/AWP as the only meta which plagued 1.6 and particularly Source.

>>14642366

There was already a way for people to prevent themselves from getting shot around corners, by using flashbangs and smokes. Besides, the game is still a AK/M4/AWP/deagle circlejerk because they are the best guns. You even admitted the only reason to use smg's and shotguns is for high reward, not to replace rifles. So all Valve did is create guns that miss for no reason across the board, which is not fun.

>>14642448

Or actually, the deagle is not that popular anymore compared to the tec-9/five-7, in which the tight spread allows you to spam at the head until you kill, so at least valve replaced the deagle with a weapon of considerably less skill

>>14642448

> guns that miss for no reason

They miss because you are trying to hit enemies at distance instead of engaging them up close. That's the whole point of bullet spread, you know, defining weapon classes and roles by range.

>>14642448

>There was already a way for people to prevent themselves from getting shot around corners, by using flashbangs and smokes

Or you know just proper crosshair placement when rounding corners.

>You even admitted the only reason to use smg's and shotguns is for high reward, not to replace rifles.

Or if you have less money to spend, if the other team is ecoing and you want to deny them effective weapons or in the case of shotguns for specific rooms on certain maps. There are actual cases where you might want kevlar + SMG over a rifle which was rarely a thing beforehand and they're still a damn sight more useful than they ever were in Source.

>deagle circlejerk because they are the best guns.

So you don't actually play the game got it.

>So all Valve did is create guns that miss for no reason across the board, which is not fun.

Again learn your recoil patterns and you won't have a problem hitting people. All they did was removed guaranteed single shot kills for anyone who can place a crosshair on a head which was a cancerous feature anyway.

>>14642473

>the deagle is not that popular anymore compared to the tec-9/five-7,

I see you corrected yourself, my bad, though those are both significantly less spammy than they were in the first few buffing patches.

>>14642480

the problem is that you *could* headshot the person at long distance, but it's a complete dice roll dependent on where the bullet lands instead of where you're aiming. If valve wanted to do as you said, why couldn't they implement damage falloff, where the weapon does less damage at range or completely dissapears. Doesn't that sound more fun then

>haha tough luck, guess my rng was better than yours, enjoy getting oneshotted across the map :^)

>>14642500

I will concede smgs and shotguns have a higher presence in the game, i missed the point because i thought you wanted people to stop using the AK and AWP for some reason. the balance can be considered subjective at this point, i would prefer to oneshot people instead of have to spray. However if you enjoy this then im not going to stop you. it just means you have shit taste

>>14642622

> missed the point because i thought you wanted people to stop using the AK and AWP for some reason

I probably didn't word it properly. What annoyed me was the fact that people would only stick to those four guns and save over buying anything else previously.

>i would prefer to oneshot people instead of have to spray.

Play a tactical FPS like SWAT 4 instead.

>it just means you have shit taste

no u

>counter strike

>>>/reddit/

ITT: casuals outing themselves

Daily reminder that anyone who shits on CS is a fucking scrub who got his ass blasted and never got good.

The only good thing that ever came out of CS was the Zombie Mods.

Now there aren't any. So all of them are shit.

They all suck.

Counter Strike threads need to be bumplocked on sight just like Undermeme threads.

source is the best

>People in this thread unironically saying that skins don't affect gameplay

Right, because your neon pastel AK totally doesn't stick out like a sore thumb and make you easier to see.

>what is the shiniest turd

>>14642191

Anon, not even a week has passed and they already cancelled the whole thing. It over anon

1.6 for actual cunny striking

Source for the fun mods and game modes

>>14657549

A man can dream.

>>14657347

>retards make themselves easier to see

>this is a problem

Though really if you can see someone's gun you can see them already unless you're blind.

>>14646515

Why didn't global offensive get zombie mods anyway? It still has community servers.

>>14642188

I hated those hostages. Always giving away the position of approaching CT's to the terrorists camping nearby.

>>14667010

One of the good things about Global Offensive is how they don't move around now.

>>14666768

So it's another complaint from someone who hasn't even played the game, surprise me.

>>14642236

>no riot shield

It wasn't fun to play against… they could add it but it should have a duration and not be made of fucking adamantium

>no night vision goggles

gr8 b8 m8

>no VIP

You can't be fucking serious

>no func_vehicle

Meh

>can't put skins of your choice

You can but it's finicky but I'll give it to you

>>14641973

>>14641973

this so much, it wouldnt suprise me if 90% of this boards are a bunch of whiny silvers

>there are people who think that 120 tick servers dont do anything

why do these people exist?

>>14641973

>killed all custom game modes in even the damn previous games because nobody that cared wants to touch CS anymore

>all that's left is the shit ones like timed surf, surf where you die and don't fucking respawn, and the gay valve supported gamemodes

>it's kept alive through 12 year olds only playing dust 2 and the totally not a ponzi scheme "competitive e-sports" scene

>not pure fucking shit

>>14669094

no one in their right mind plays CS as CS

the only reason anyone gave a shit was the things you could do with the engine like surf, which made it less tactical and more arena

that's dead though, so the game's shit

>>14668983

>only playing dust 2

Another person outed as not having played the game.

>>14673408

It's not true of GO though. I mean I'll agree fags stick to far too limited a subset of the active duty maps but it's not literally just dust 2.
