rabid leper u dont know what u are talking about. for one thing.. valve didnt sell out the cs team did. and no one is gonna suddenly play as team members now that bunny hoping is gone. bunny hoping was just a way to get to the other teams spawn faster. its not a "quake" style death match ur a retard and never speak again. for everytime someone reads what u write their iq drops by 10 points.

I've played CS since beta 1.0. 6 months ago I switched to Mechwarrior IV. 2 weeks ago I reinstalled CS and got my clan back together. This game is timeless, but the cheaters should stick to cheating servers. Some of us like the game the way it was meant to be played.

LoL rabid

bigtime1148, I don't think RabidLeper was serious.. He was doing a impression of a 'They ruined CS with the new jumping, it's a noobs only game now, I will stop playing CS because of it' whiner.. :)



LOL.. :)

I did have a plan to fix Counter-Strike.



My plan was truly simple, make it so you cant win a round without completing the objectives.



So until the bomb explodes, or the hostages are rescued... the clock keeps ticking... i think that would help people to start playing as a team... since they couldent win any other way.



Every day on a lot of servers i see people get screamed at because they dont charge and bunny hop their way to victory.

Counterstrike will die eventually that's guaranteed but only on the Half Life engine, this game has proved so playable and succesful that it will always be around.

Dissman that sounded good at first, but it makes it so hard for the attacking team. Plus, the system at the moment is pretty much like that neway - but if you eliminate the defending team then they can't stop you from planting/ rescuing, it wouldn't make sense to make them rescue or plant neway after every1 is dead.

The best idea i've heard is encouraging completion of the objectives with extra frags/score when they are achieved (1 frag for touching a hostage 9 extra for rescue) ...as well as the money.



CS is here forever, even people who say they're giving up on CS still stick around and preach how the current version sux0rs and the previous version (which received much worse criticism at the time than the new version, prob incl. hate mail to gooseman) is SO much better and we should harken to the words of the wise one who remembers the golden age.

In that way CS can't die for the majority, it's constantly changing and refreshing (except less so recently), and so always brings in new faces to play CS who regard it as the best game ever ... until they become paranoid, cynical and sarcastic from the constant exposure to cheaters.



ps.i predict that when CS2 comes out with it's shiny black discs and controversial hifi like design, we'll probably be dissapointed, but it'll still fly off the shelves.

I'd pay a subscription, i mean i pay for a cable connection to play CS...

[bigtime1148]

i know rabid was was impersonating other people. his impersiontions are wrong.

[Poopie]

I started playing CS around beta 5 I think, first map was as_something or other, riverside maybe? Anyway, I played religously until around July or August of last year. I realised that it was really going downhill the first time I saw the speed cheat, nothing like being blasted by speedy gonzalez with an awp 5 seconds after you spawn. Also, the community really got bad, seems all 80% of CS players do anymore is whine, accuse, bitch, and berate others for no real reason. Mostly though, the game just got tiresome for me, like was said in the article, theres only so much you can do with bomb defusion and hostage rescue/murder. I really wish more servers had kept the es_ maps running, at least here and there to break up the repitition. Either way it was still the best game I'd ever played and still is, though I've grown tired of it. goose and cliffe and all the others who helped really did awesome, I loved telling people that didnt play, about how a couple of guys made a totally free game by themselves that made the so called "pros" look like the true amateurs.
