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.

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.

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.

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

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...

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.

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.
