CS:GO Discussion

Bought the game after enjoying free weekend.

My server filters don't get saved for some reason but its not a massive deal.

Played on a zombie escape server last night and that was fun, although my zombie textures are missing and I get pink and black "battenberg" zombies. I remember textures in CSS used to go missing randomly so I think its just a random thing...

Atm can't get the "feel" of shooting, its a different feel to CSS and it feels funny right now.

Would have liked better graphics, the graphics arent enough of a overhaul imo although I get that they want the game to be accessible to as many as possible. And people still play 1.6 so people with crap pc's can still play it.
 
Can anyone link some good servers to join? I did have a couple in my favourites, but they have disappeared. :(

Just got this. First Cs game.

Why do people always keep switching guns all the time? Like shoot switch to pistol and back to rifle on every shot?

On every shot? I know players shoot with their primary weapon and if they don't end up killing a player by the time they need to reload, they quickly switch to pistol to finish them off.

If you hit Q it quickly switches to your last used weapon, it become a habit after awhile, as the animation is fast and fluid. :)

If they have a scoped weapon, it's the most comfortable way to de-scope. If they are on the first zoom level, it feels easier to switch weapons quickly, rather than having to press Mouse2 twice to return no-scope view.
 
Damn i need to play this again, doubt it though:(

Played it the first 2 days of release then never looked back :(

Also it used to be a faster way of chambering the next round than waiting for the animation. After that it just becomes habit.
 
Just got the complete pack only had about 30 mins on cs:go seems to be abit like mw but without all the crap seems to play okay (I'm not very good!) gonna try the other to see which I prefer any tips for a new guy?!
 
Finally bought this, will be downloading it tonight and giving it a good sesh over the weekend. Looking forward to trying it out.

I get chris-82's point as his first time on Counter-Strike and COD:MW being his reference .... in some ways COD has taken things from old CS 1.6/CS:S while CS:GO has taken some small things from COD:MW/BF3.

i still dont get it, cs go, cs source, cs 1.6 have NOTHING in common with any of the modern warfare series, absolutely nothing.

Yeah they do but you have to generalise from the point of view of someone who has only ever played MW, they're both:
- First person shooter
- You play either good guys (counter terrorists CS/USMC MW) or bad guys (terrorists CS/OpFor MW)
- Bomb plant and defuse game mode.
- Achievements (CS:S/CS:GO only).
- Weapon models/types based on real life examples.

I myself prefer CS, have been playing it well over 12 years since Beta 5.2 .... I've seen games that have come and gone which takes cues from the original CS and either improved or expanded upon them. CS 1.6/CS:S became stale in mainstream gaming, it used to be the top FPS but infrequent and weird balancing updates as well as the "new shiny" engines cause a shift of players to move away. CS:GO is pretty much the last chance Counter-Strike has to recapture the player base and the E-Sports arena.
 
Think we need to get over that it's not like 1.6, there will never be a fps game as good as 1.6 again. CS:GO is better than CSS so it's getting there.

I had a quick go of CS Go and that was my take, that CS took a step closer to the populist setup of MW or similar. The guns felt with less 'weight' to them, could be Im completely off
I think they are trying to please the majority who just want to 'run and gun' Every version takes a new direction.
I was playing since beta 5 I think it was and cs_estate and all that, generally I prefer most css with ff on and random non stock maps.

Not that fussed on cs go though its good but I hope they go somewhere else for cs 3
 
i keep thinking of loading this up again but every time i have since release just get disapointed. seems to have gone more "cod" like in the way of aiming and firing. far to many people able to spray from distance and mow you down. not like css , someone spraying at you from distance and you just pop their face off with 2 bullets.
 
Would i be able to run this if i could run source quite well?

I only remember having lag when grenades went off in somewhere like office.

Is this harder to run or could i play on lower settings?
