CS:GO Beta Starting Today

Well the concept for CS:GO was meant for only consoles but someone had the idea of adding it to PC. Why few parts of the game still show console style i.e the equipment buy menu is large circle fit for console pad...
 
I got the impression that CS:GO was going to be like Valve's attempt at Quake Live? I guess the graphics update is more significant but from stuff I read a while ago I got the impression the main aim of it all was to have a nice and shiny website that tracked stats and clans and whatnot and organised tournaments etc?

Maybe my brain just made it up!

Either way I doubt the gameplay will be that different but people will still whine like they always do :/ ZOMG SPRAY PATTERN IS DIFFERENT

If you don't like it then don't play it I say :P
 
I missed out on a key at Eurogamer because I couldn't be bothered to try the game when it was played on a dirty console with joypad >.< I only found out later that they were giving away beta keys :( lol

I did get a tshirt though! I got in early with a press pass and I was standing near the booth texting when I had a CS GO tshirt thrown at me by one of the girls there :|
 
I think it looks all right from a casual gamer perspective, it has some sort of matchmaking lobby system thing going on doesn't it?
 
I think the molotov can be used very effectively in competetive matches but needs to removed in public matches as it would be prone to been spammed.

The whole point of the Molotov is for competitive play.

It's a tactical tool designed to block off certain routes to give a defending team time to regroup. Same with the decoy grenade, it's for teams who throw a dummy and pretend to go one way and then send the bomb another. It's very tactical
 
Played about 50 mins now, that's a fair few rounds as they are over quickly....

It's OK... but as others have said I don't know who this is aimed at. Console users have this genre already filled with COD.
