Counter Strike Global Offensive - Everyone Ready for it :D

[roshill]

Trying to organize an event here for CS lover who are going to be playing CSGO for the first time. If you play on IBIS and want to play the game together tonight. Add me up and I will find an empty server and Invite as many as I can to a server.

I have been playing it on/off didn't really get into it as much but I did enjoy it the first time I was playing it. Even though I died a 100 times before I started to get the hang of the gun on there. Its a new experience and would love to help new guy on there.

Few Tip & Tricks:

1. CS:GO is different from CS 1.6 and CSS so be prepared to almost learn a whole new game with alot of new game types.
2. Select your cross hairs: Trust me if you are comfortable with the classic ones try to get them back on ASAP. I found it hard to aim down using the default cross hairs provided on the game.
3. Start by play regular de_dust2 maps and such. As they are the most famous maps that everyone knows about so you'll feel at your home away from home.
4. Gun Game its a fun deathmatch system that they have implemented. If your drunk or high get prepared to die a lot xD. You just have to practice alot with each gun to get the hang of it.

[Cortez]

Amen to that.

you realize CS:GO is nothing more then a Valve Money sink hole to help them compete with games like BF3 and MW3? Server owners ability to modify servers gets dumbed down to a point where even a 10 year old wqould be able to understand the extent of what will be allowed. The game is not and was never meant to be a CSS replacement, just an excuse to rake in some extra cash for there bigger projects.

I do realize..but it gives me something to do when im bored. at least an "update" to something. I will always play CSS, but it will be nice to have something "different" to go to...if only for a few weeks. I mean, $13 for a few weeks of entertainment? Sure why not.

[roshill]

It is live people for 13 buck you cant go wrong. Its not a huge improvement but a few new guns are worth the money
And plus trying it out before it releases if this game was 59 bucks I would never have bought it but its reasonably low so enjoy :)

M going to be playing with Red Neck and dayrexx soon from IBIS add me up and lemme know if you wanna join in on the action :D

[brett friggin favre]

it's not worth any money if every time i log on i'll have to ask myself why i'm not playing css

[Hitman]

but is this coming out for mac?


go fuck yourself and your shitty mac pos too

[Erdenay]

This. Why spend money to buy an inferior game when you already have a superior one you can play?

[Sin]

This. Why spend money to buy an inferior game when you already have a superior one you can play?

This argument is all too familiar to me. Same shit people said when CS:S was coming out, and I was one of those people. Didn't start playing CS:S until '07.

I've never had that with source - although I may be wrong about CS:GO. The main reason for this argument is that from what I've seen and experienced so far, CS:S has felt much more fun and entertaining, so I'm really in no mood to actually buy CS:GO. Maybe it is actually an improvement, but I haven't seen yet, so I'd rather spend my money elsewhere (and as student, there are plenty other avenues) versus actually buying something that I'd probably stop playing soon after.

Depends when you came onto the CS "scene". If it was before 1.3, then you'd hear everyone complaining about the 1.3 update. Then the 1.5 update... THEN omg the mass exodus during the STEAM Launch and 1.6 update... forget about the HL2/CS:S launch... even Valve themselves stated that CS:S was meant as a test of the extent of the modding ability of the Source engine... CS:S was broken out the gate.

That being said, I'm not defending the lack of creativity with this new CS update. The way I see it, it's what Condition Zero was to the original mod. Valve is trying to grab a hold of the console market with this game. If you remember their early marketing scheme and how they wanted to make it cross-platform so the console fags could play with us PC Gods. Well, it wasn't until earlier this year that they realized it was nigh impossible to make the game FEEL good for PC AND Console. Hidden Path mentioned something about this in a tweet or some form of social media, I don't recall.

The game in beta had potential, and it seemed like Hidden Path were following the guidance of the pro players (both CS:S and 1.6) on their private forums... well they were, and then something happened a few months ago, probably in May, which is when I stopped paying attention to it...

IDK... CS:GO won't support ES at launch, but I'm sure someone out there will create a set of Tools that will be compatible with CS:GO, for us lazy people who don't want to help out with theorycrafting or do any kind of work with the modding community, because we'd rather bitch and complain about not having the options from the get-go.

/rant

P.S. - WC3 Mod was not available when Source came out. Neither were any of the other mods/admin tools. Just have patience.

[StarsMine]

Sin has the right idea :D
Its the same way people reacted when CS:S came out. Ill get it sometime, the lack of mods at the get go wont be all that fun, but hey its fun watching a game grow.

You just said what I said in an earlier post, but WAY too flamboyantly gay.

[maynard]

Meh... bought CS on day 1 of release... played it till CSS came out... tried CSS... was like ...... O_O?

went back 2 CS for another year, and by that point most my friends had made the switch due 2 them fixing the hit boxes finally.

went over 2 CSS and it's been great =)


GO is just an attempt at getting CS on console again... nothing more... which is why I have no intentions of playing it on PC... I might try it on console eventually as I love console shooters... well.. COD mainly (shut up) but I see no reason 2 purchase it for PC until it's on sale for 5 dollars or something.

I'll always be dedicated 2 CSS, and from what I remember zero has no intentions of hosting a server for GO.

[Steamer]

I like CS:GO GG, all I really enjoyed. I REALLY hope they convert over the FIXED weapon switching system!

[ZERO]

Oh for those of us 1337 gamers the issue is not even MAC for this one, it is being released for CONSOLES and made FOR CONSOLES. As if the interface was not clear about that to start with.

SM which is all of our mods runs and works on CS:GO. The problem will be that the tf2 style server broswer will kill independent mods. Want to have a gg that is not the VALVE gg well fuck you.

YEa as far as a cs:go server goes it will only be if the game actually gets popular in which case we will setup some servers. Note that admin will work across both games and will remain at the same cost.

This is not to be confused with the plans to include free reserved slot for any admins who play on our NS2 server when that game releases. However depending on the nature of the admin system for that game it may ultimately include a linked admin system too.

Not sure what you mean about the server browser though. As it is right now, you can browse the public server listing the same as most Valve games/mods. CS:S, Garry's Mod, TF2, etc...

[ZERO]

I can assume you that like tf2 go especially with the focus toward consoles will be largely quick play only. This will make it difficult to fill anything other than quick play servers.

If we were to launch a go server it would be for the quick play gg as I am sure that will be the most popular quick play option.

Might as well have that while the hype is there

well if u;re going down that route, how about a server dedicated for challenging hackers, with their hacks on, against our elite players .
See how we fair.

lets face it, if hackers survive months in our servers sometimes before getting caught, while getting raped by us occasionally, i;d like to see a blunt faceoff

[h4x0r]

Chikun is gay. :)

Oh yeah, so is Brett.

Cheers.

well.. those crafty bastards found a way 2 make me purchase it lol... they are offering an AWP for the sniper in TF2 if you pre-purchase lol...

Best comment about CS:S in regards to flashbangs:
"They are limiting you to 1 flash so public games don't become a Ray Charles simulator."

CS GO has my stamp of approval

That is obviouly only on the valve servers. YEs valve will be hosting servers for the quick play. I am not even sure if a custom server can show up in the quick play. What we can say is that this being the case the valve servers are going to be a hackers wet dream with no admins to actually stop them.

[maynard]

I'm looking forward 2 when I can ban/mute these mic spammers and greifers on our own server =D

cause as you said, the valve server are like the wild west lol.

[Steamer]

Already dealing with them on Valve servers. -_-

[maynard]

can we get a forum section for CS GO.

[Sin]

Is the IBIS Server going up today? I wanna play when I get home.

hopefully... I really hate playing on non IBIS servers... far 2 many idiots out there.

[roshill]

When are we getting an IBIS server on CS GO :D ... cant wait to play with the community together and would love to be admin down there as well ... hopefully they make similar maps for CS GO would be fun

[maynard]

we have a server. there's a bunch of us on it.
