Counter Strike: Favourite Version And Why?

Swagger187 · 13 Oct 2011 at 11:07

Tough one this is. I didn't get into CS until I was in my first year of college in 2007. Some guy brought in a cracked version we would install onto the college computers and play across the network.

After that experience I went and brought the collection on Steam and have played on and off ever since. I have most hours spent on Source but I do love the gameplay of CS 1.6.

As I can't decide I would have to say them both are as good as each other.

u guys should play 1.6, its ages pretty well to be honest, the graphics arent that bad at all, perfectly playable + the awesome gameplay..........you just never get tired of it.

1.1, I miss it

Easy 1.3 best CS ever done

Plus had the added option of bunny Hopping as it was called hehe.

1.6 is imo better than source also.

Assault is pretty popular here

I played from the 0.6's i think.

They've sorted the CSS hitboxes now, so it's difficult.

I preferred some of the old school maps, and would spend hours playing de_dust on 1.3, so probably 1.3 I'd say, despite me still playing source the most these days.

The problem with going back to 1.3->1.6 is that the people playing it have been playing it for SO LONG that the learning curve is redonkulous

Most of the betas were fun, especially 7.1 with the CS_siege LOL apc... Much fun to be had driving about.

But the actual best version was probably 1.3 IMO.

I expect a large number of this forum were in their early junior school years through the betas tho so I doubt many will Remember them... Practice shooting range and kill house any body

Edit: scoped m4a1? Gun name changes due to copyright?

CSS because it was my first counter strike game.

Source was great, until they put the radar in.

That pretty much ruined it, I'm quite sure the weapons were changed a bit in that patch as well. The radar makes it so easy, I think this was done in response to CODMW.

lol..................they didnt ruin it with radar mate.

1.6 owns css because of the better gameplay, better physics everything.

css is good but cluster everywhere and has really bad hitboxes.
