Counter Strike was Never Good at Release

clicking the video just to mention you could have stopped the title at "counter strike was never good"

I bet this will be the mew most played and most hated game for quite while

I never asked for CS2, i paid 15$ to play CSGO i don't get why we can't have this now, this is so selfish and weird, CSGO was finally polished to perfection and here they are releasing CS2 which has bugs all over the place and bad hit boxes, they really pulled an overwatch 2 on us and it's just sad.

Where is Condition Zero?

The title is a valid point, but you'd think if you're continuing something onwards, you'd learn from the mistakes of the past.

CSGO was absolutely dogshit on release. And there were a LOT of bugs that Valve needed to fix over the years. BUT thats not an excuse for the poor state CS2 is in, quite the contrary. Valve shouldve learned from the past and done it better, but they made the same mistakes, or even worse. CS2 has BIG issues with the netcode, lets be honest. Thats the most important part of any CS, and instead of trying to be as close as possible to how CSGO felt and then improve on it (its a successor after all), they proved ignorant about a lot of essential features (netgraph, righthand, bob), bugs (old ones that were never fixed got ported over) and general game feeling (spraying?!). Its really sad to see that after the most successful decade in CS history, its developers dont seem to have learned the important lessons.

Well to me. EVERY GAME isn't good at release...

Ofc bugs and glitches. But it's true tho

We need ray tracing :D

Suppose it just goes to show how good the fundamental gameplay loop is if Counter-Strike can persevere even with consistently shoddy releases.

Condition Zero still ignored soz

Sick video dude, you're like RebelTaxi but for topics I actually care about.

Hey, not sure if anyone's said this already, but you can find the release version of CS:S fairly easily if you look up "Half-Life 2 Collectors Edition". A user named XJR9000 has repackaged his copy into an installer where you can choose to install the 2004 versions of HL2, CS:S, and HL:S.

release CS looks neat

CS2 has multi billion dollar company behind it, no excuse this time

very good video !!

I still remember my childhood, playing old ver CSS that I bought from pirated CD games shop. Good old time

I mean, no, you’re wrong about retail CS. It wasn’t bad. It was incredible, even during beta. Not perfect, as you pointed out, but not bad. And it did have spectating … weird to claim it did not.

Cum

Tbh i miss CSGO so much 😢

Wtf mutahar laughing is not funny anymore, he always cringe.

CS (1.6)
CS:CZ (1.7)
CS:S (1.8)
CS:GO (1.9)
CS (2)

Counter-Strike was never good game any time.

Do i hear perfect dark ?

there was a beta before even the first beta, it was for quake 3 called URBAN ASSAULT. The project switched to the Half Life engine (a modified quake 2 engine) due to how it had breakable glass. I'm not even sure if a full map was made, I think it was more just a concept at that point.

The way you presented all previous cs releases I believe that the title of the vid is bullshit except for csgo which was always sh1t 'till cs2's close beta

The biggest problem with CS2 being as broken as all the other CS releases is that Valve became high-hundreds of billions of dollars worth company. You can forgive 2 students (CS 1.0) and a startup company with their second biggest project (CS:S), maybe a first billions worth of a company (CS:GO). But not the Valve as it is today. Unexcusable amount of not giving a heck and they first mentioned CS transition to S2 all the way back in 2017. Like seroiusly, where did all the hundreds of billions go to?

I wouldn't mind CS2's problems as much if they didn't make it replace CSGO. It feels more like a shitty update for CSGO than it's own new game. It feels like a shitty game release because it's not a real game release. All of the guns are the same, the same balancing, the same grenades(except for the smoke), it doesn't actually feel like its own game. They could have maybe added new guns, guns have changed in the last couple of decades, but not we have to protect people's precious skins, that's the real priority, not making the best possible sequel, no it's the skins that matters.

In my opinion CS:S is the best CS

solid video

CS "1.6" peaked at 1.5. CSS is good too. CSGO sucks

About csgo seriousness, i think the main menu theme and the trailer counts for it maybe? For the main menu theme i just like it more, and the trailer.. the music of it is INCREDIBLE, same for the gameplay one but.. VALVE PLEASE WHERE IS CS2 CINEMATIC TRAILER.

Also i like both cs2 and csgo graphics.

This gives me hope. Thank you

You can get the CSS day 1 version from the half life 2 day one package it comes with half life source hl2 and CSS all first release

Where could you download the pod bot for cs 1.0?

Did you know that you could load Half-life 1 map in CS1.0? Cause you are playing the mod version for Half-life. There is all the Half-life map and you could found the suit battery charger but it's icon was a scientist screaming maybe just a place holder.

if cs2 were its own separate game it would be perfect, I can't play cs anymore because of my old laptop not running that shit

call them jingling keys all you like, as a hammer user the physics are great for all kinda of things.

The cscz pheonix at the thumbnail got me like "wooooah"

For cs2 all they could've done is just port the missing content directly to cs2 so it would at least have something to do other than the same 2 maps every minute

difference between old cs and now is cuz we ha a good game and they force us to play a bad one instead

There is actually older version of CSGO that wasn't released to the public.

a year passed since launch, thats not launch anymore, this is unacceptable.

1 year since cs2 launch... game is still dead

I am aware the CS 1.0 menu UI isn't the WON version but I forgot to mention I couldn't get that to work, (it would still look the same as won hl so I'm not wrong on that)
And yes CS2 release is bad I am not trying to diminish or excuse it
