Achievements/stats wiping would be disappointing but not unexpected. Stats hardly ever carry over from beta, and I'm surprised achievements were even activated during the beta.
I'd also like to know this, I hope it has the same kind of mod support that Source had.

Can someone tell me if this game has actually released on PSN? I pre-ordered it and got the theme and everything but if I go back to the store and try to download it all that shows up is an option for me to re-download the theme. Am I blind or is it not there yet?
PSN should update in a couple of hours. The game is not released there.

What kind of FPS are most of you averaging? Just curious since the spec seem to have been raised. I get about 60+ but on this 30 man server it dips a little.
Yea, not having a silencer will be a huge change for me, I always used to put it on my M4 back when I played Source. Obviously moving from CS on PC to 360 will be the biggest change when I buy GO tomorrow, though.
Intel i7-2600k @ 4.8ghz
GeForce GTX 590
16bb DDR3
Maxed out settings hitting about 150-200 average fps using cl_showfps 1. The numbers refresh too quickly, but if I had to guess a true average I would say like 180.

Valve released a new blog for CS: GO:
http://blog.counter-strike.net/index.php/2012/08/4571/
It has an infograph about the beta.

The SG-552 is so underused, always has been.
I buy it over an AK-47 every time, if I have the money. I changed the autobuy.txt file to make it a higher priority.

You're a big guy.
People are such creatures of habit, haha. Sticking to the same old guns.
Grew up playing consoles, played CS on Xbox 1 with XBL. Why is this so weird?

Seems good so far I liked how much its improved since the beta but it will take me some time to improve my skills since I am so use to TF2 I haven't played CS in awhile.

They are but I think it's worth mentioning that not all the guns were available at the beginning of the beta.
I'm with this guy, CS works on consoles pretty well.
I honestly doubt that had any impact whatsoever on the graph.
People have always been using the same shit since I started playing in 2000 (except that auto-sniper got a huge buff somewhere in the early 2000s and became legit) and that was never going to change with GO.

Yeah, but there's a reason that people used the same guns throughout 1.5/1.6 etc.
No silencers in the game. Odd decision.

You like me, you really really like me!
So how does the MP7 compare to the MP5? Is it a worthy replacement?
Matchmaking takes the controllers into account and ranks players sperately
Not yet implemented. Supposedly it will be added down the line.
Ya, I'm sure it's taking hours and hours and hours of coding.
Any source on this? I'm intensely curious about it as well. I assumed they removed it for balance purposes.
Somebody posted it (with Source I think) in the beta thread, but I haven't been able to find it again so far.

A couple hundred of those bot kills were me, you're welcome guys
It was always a strange design inclusion, to allow a team specific gun to have an optional advantage was unusual. You could pick one up off the floor, but still.

Plenty of people, even more people who don't have a spare one, and even more people that don't have a convenient setup to place those.
The SG-552 is a Terrorist specific fully automatic rifle with a scope on it. IMO, more useful than a silencer.
I don't see a problem with unique aspects to the guns of each side, as long as the overall game is still considered balaned. And I believe that it is.

Installed and ready
The CTs have the Aug.
This is a little saddening. This is reddit, however, so I'm taking this with a grain of salt: http://www.reddit.com/r/GlobalOffensive/comments/ykz01/csgo_and_matchmaking/
Oh, I completely forgot about the AUG. Maybe because I haven't bought one in like 10 years.
CT I always go M4, T I always go SG-552 money willing.
That is terrible news. That pretty much defeats the entire point of CS Go...
have been playing the beta form the beginning, and i love this game more and more, the finished product is going to rule. the only thing i really miss is as said before, the silencer and sprays.. dont know why they would remove sprays tho.. i can accept the silencers for competitive play.
hope this game will eliminate some or all 1.6
competitive play. i get that people wont like go away from something grate, but they are just being selfish in this matter.. competitive play is a huge part of making a game interesting. and finding 1.6 matches when you look for cs tournaments isnt really what you would hope for if you are new to cs. people who played 1.6 when it came out have moved to other things, i know there are still some left, but seriously i know 1.6 is a grate game but who cares about 1.6 anymore?
hope this game will eliminate some or all 1.6
and source lol
I seriously thought Valve's whole pitch for this game was to bring proper competitive matchmaking to Counter-Strike. Now, according to that Reddit post, it seems as though there's no way to even load up a competitive match with a team of 5 players.
That makes me quite sad.
CS Go needs a fully implemented ladder system, ala SC2 or Dota 2.

fuck yes! I'm proud of some of the suckers I've already unlocked
I'm glad prettier graphics and a lobby system that lets me join up with my friends and jump really fast and effortlessly into a default settings server is the point of it for me.
