old counter strike players?

I do miss classic Counterstrike, and Source. So many, many, many hours and a few clans. Those were the days :), lugging CRTs to your mates for LANs as well haha.

CS:GO can go suck a hard one.

I remember playing on the meatyballs server from time to time, what happened to them? they just all of a sudden disappeared. They had an awesome community and servers.

Late reply is late... we just went off and started to play different games I think. The servers were all hosted in one of the guys office, here is the rack :D

I used to assist a bit at MPZ (Multi Player Zone) which I think was about the same time as playing for meatyballs or a bit before. They had a bunch of servers running off a 2mb leased line.

Played from almost the first Beta, Docks was one of the best maps and also Iraq. Moved onto BF2 and then didn't play it after that :)

Yea I did similar to that, played BF2 tons because of the mods for it. Didnt play csgo originally but actually it works ok now, its the players you have to mute sometimes because they are drawing in enemies from eastern europe even across russia who act toxic. The game itself is fine, I heard faceit uk hub is a good start for anyone who is not a beginner
 
I started playing in the Beta 6.5 days and played in the Barrysworld league. We were pretty good back in the day and got into division 1. If the clan ever rocked up to a public server and played together we would get kicked rather quickly with accusations of cheating, when it was just that we were good. Stopped playing in the Source era. I do own CS:GO, and steam says Ive played a grand total of 7 hours which is about 6 more than I recall...

My Steam ID is also in the low 4000 range. Good times...
 
Beta 6.5 days, N00b, 5.2 was when I started, seems like decades ago...
Oh, wait a minute....
 
Randomly found this thread at work and having spent the last hour trawling through thought I'd say hello...

So many familiar names and quality memories! Enjoy!!1

Played it since its inception basically. Went under many names, but i guess the most used to a decent competition level would have been "xgfunk" or "-X-" i played mainly for [tbZ] teamBanzai back in the wireplay leagues. I think one of my team mates FTM is on these forums. i have played up until CS:GO although CS:GO doesn't grab me as much, and with a family i don't get the time nowa days to play to a decent level.

A few maps come to mind that i really used to love. Cant remember the names. But one was like a huge square building almost like a jail with a massive open courtyard in the middle, and a small sewer system. The other was on a dock (might have been called docks) where the CT's would come from a speed boat type thing.

There was actually a cs_prison, and possibly de_docks, definitely a docks nap but can't recall if it was bomb or hostage...

Nope, definitely cs_docks, and that had sewers like you describe
 
I remember the T's coming off of a boat, Pirinese or something similar, that was a fishtastic map for the T's until they borked it...
 
cs_italy. Plenty of angling opportunity in the long house when spawning as T.

My favourite was crouch jumping into the doorway corner that CTs rushed past or jumping onto the balcony and waiting for CTs to exit.
 
cs_dock is right. I think the other was in the very early beta's. The other ones i was talking about was cs_tire. that really does take me back. Just remembered cs_facility as well. that was another classic. damn loved the old CS, i guess its all rose tinted stuff but really was great.

Beta 3 i think was the kind of days i really got in to CS.
