What the fuck is the appeal?
What the fuck is the appeal?
you can play it on a shitty computer
you can get away with cheating
and it's free
Brown people love f2p games where they can cheat and earn money for their village.
pop-pop-pop watching motherfuckers drop
it's satisfying to play a few games of arms race from time to time
It's the soccer/football/basketball of online vidya.
the third world needs something to play too
have to stop moving to shoot
every map is a matter of memorizing smokes and grenades
huge amount of downtime between lives
movement is shit
everyone thinks they're an esports player
people spend 900000000hrs a year watching broccoli haired doughy white boys in jerseys playing it on twitch
gambling your grocery money on packs for 3 whole seconds of dopamine
doesn't even have proper fucking surf servers, the only respectable game mode
I say i'm gonna quit everyday but i play at least one competitive match per day. It's an addiction.
I say i'm gonna quit everyday
Quitting competitive games is the most productive thing I ever did in my entire life. The highs are nowhere near worth the downs. That shit ruins entire days/weekends.
Educate yourself, sweaty.

>doesn't even have proper fucking surf servers,
This was so disappointing to learn. Installed and uninstalled cs2 for this reason only.
Probably 80% of those players are Russian bots farming for loot.
I once logged 100 hours in 2 weeks, i don't play that much anymore but i can't control myself and am addicted to headshot sound.
not anymore, you can't play it on pentium 4 like csgo
It's an online casino that comes with a free game.
At least half of those are unironically bots farming weapon cases
It's people stuck in the ranked skinner box with delusions that they're going to become an eSports professional if they play enough.
This was so disappointing to learn. Installed and uninstalled cs2 for this reason only.
CS:S is still active and the recent update by valve made it even better
Basic shooting game.
Tactical because 1 shot = 1 kill
No super powers
It was great when I played, too bad everything is hero shooter now
Do you play any multiplayer games or did you just pick the highest playercount one to complain about? (Genuine question)
Yes I do and I'm just routinely curious how a game that is slow as a fucking tortoise and has not a single fun shooter element in it whatsoever can somehow be the biggest one
I like it. It's like chess, but 5v5 and you've gotta play psychologist with angry russians on your team so they don't tilt.
The shooty bang bang part is pretty neat too.
Cs is pure crack cocaine of fps. What's an example of a fast paced shooter and what's a fun shooter element that cs doesn't have? I am like 90 percent sure you're shitposting.
okay so you're just retarded (or shitposting)
Never knew.
-Much slower than Quake and other arena shooters.
-Due to low mobility, camping is encouraged. Which could be alright if bullets went through walls like real tactical shooters.
-Isn't really "tactical', since you don't have movement options and other realist mechanics.
-The only "skill expression' comes from learning the set spread patterns of guns.
It's shit. It's piss. It's disgusting
what's a fun shooter element that cs doesn't have
At least pretend not to be this retarded
It's the only non zoomer shooter left
Then name one, mouth breather.
not quake siege not good
kek
Nice bait kek
I'm pretty sure boomer shooters are much more in line with stuff like UT and Quake and Team Fortress Classic than Counter Strike is. Old CS at least used to have bhopping
no zoomers
no "heroes"
you can say nigger
you can make fun of women and casual retards
I only play casual because 10v10 with mics on and both teams shit talking is more fun
I like the short suspenseful rounds
I can't believe 1.6 bhop didn't become its own thing. It was so much fun. We went the kz route instead, cringe.
Being able to fucking move and shoot. Having more weapons than just hitscan point and click guns that are solely based on real life cliche military rifles. Environments that have verticality and fun geometry. Boosters, jump pads, movement tech, wallrunning.
This takes minimal effort to understand. I don't know what you're not getting.
okay so go play those games
CS players prefer just guns with good guys vs bad guys they don't have severe ADHD and a crippling need to have jumping and flying and nicki minaj twerking in their line of sight to have fun
It's fun to outsmart or predict your opponents, and those rare high moments of having a multi casualty spray.
Thanks for playing, zooms.

why doesn't everybody want to play Quake like me
this thing that isn't Quake is bad specifically because it's not Quake
you can play it on a shitty computer
not anymore sweetie
I used to practice sports before I basically broke my body and I wanted to replicate this feeling of just going in a training room and doing drills. I have no idea why it makes me feel so comfy doing this. Ended up playing for about 4.5k hours and decided I no longer wanted to do it. Got a little above 2k ELO on Faceit. I learned to appreciate pro players a lot because they've played CS games for 10 times the amount I have and playing against them is always a very humbling experience. If you do take CS seriously and want to improve at it it can be a very fun time, but cheaters have basically ruined multiplayer PC games and IMO if you don't exclusively play LANs or against players you know, then there's no point in wasting your time playing anymore.
it's counter-strike 1+1
what don't you get?
shoot bad guys with guns, except bad guys are always russians or brazilians
What the fuck is the appeal?
I wish I knew, I don't think there's a single fps with worse weapon handling than CS:GO.
CS2, L4D2, DOTA2, TF2, Portal2, HL2
Gambling slop that valve drones defend the shitty practices of, my gaben can do no wrong except let me rent out skins and let kids become gambling addicts and donate to democrats :)
It's not a mindless run and gun hero shooter or some shitty console fps with ADS and 30s TTK and infinite respawn.
and donate to democrats :)
Are you sure? Orange streamed with Adin on Kick and rugged crypto shitcoin. That's all you.
