So when CS:GO comes out I can keep playing the beta like with the Source or TF2 beta?
 
omg what the hell am I playing?
This game is so bad, it feels so wrong...what the...?

I can't describe how disappointed I am right now. I regret my purchase and every single cent
 
Well guess there's a bug for those who have been in the beta since store page says I already own it lol. After playing it again yeah I think I'm gonna have to preorder and I'm going to tell myself it's ok since my bday is coming up!
 
Steam servers down? Can't connect to friends, cannot play GO or 1.6 xD

Try to adjust the crosshair size to something bigger / smaller, helped me somehow :)
 
What would you say is wrong with the AK?

It doesn't feel right?

I got CS1.6 and Source and i play them often so it's not fuzzy nostalgia kicking it. I should also mention i have about 6 hrs in the beta so i didnt play for '5 seconds' and blindly write off the game.
 
I'm a competitive 1.6 player still, beta is almost done installing and I'll be home to play in less than an hour! Can't wait to finally see what it feels like for myself.
 
Those complaining: Did you make sure input is set to raw, no mouse acceleration, vsync off?
 
Only had time to play for half an hour (even less, maybe), but damn it, this is WAY closer to 1.6 than it is to CS:S. Way closer. Love at first sight.
 
It's kinda funny years later watching the same things sink a team on dust in Global Offensive that did in Source.

Also, I am now terrible at Counter-Strike.
 
have played about an hour of the beta, really enjoy it. Arms race is a lot like Gun Master in BF3 (I'm a CS Noob) and is a lot of fun, so far have just been playing with bots just to get use to the maps and weapons.

The mode comes from a CS server mod where servers ran specific maps for the mod. Did they say anything about custom maps/servers? Also moving the pistols to the backend of the rotation is lame :P
 
What? No way. The AK is absolutely fantastic in GO. Very much like 1.6...with maybe a tiny bit more kickback.

I don't think I've heard a single person say that about the AK before now. I also haven't heard many people say the game is much like 1.6 either..

The AK handles less precisely in this game as do all the rifles and gunplay in general, seriously.
 
What is it about? Gungame?

Yeah, they also added a mode where you play Defuse maps but go through weapon progression like Gungame which I think is awesome. Love me some GG.

I don't remember playing any mods like that mode previously so I'm assuming it's a completely new hybrid mode.

yeah but how good it is depends entirely on the map. some maps like sugarcane make it awful but bank and lake and the forest one are awesome. super quick rounds, high/low ground, quick bomb planting, it's really fun
 
Excited about the preorder people getting in, maybe now there's a few more noobs and I can get a few kills myself and not be the most pathetic player in every server.

Absolutely love the game though (except for that 1 body shot kill sniper, uuuugghhh).


edit-

Btw, is skill based matchmaking supposed
to be working in the beta? I keep matching vs
insanely skilled people.

This game is definitely a lot less forgiving than Source, and even 1.6. Spraying will get you nowhere.

This is a good thing.
