if you're new to CS games, then expect a really different experience from most of today's FPS games. it takes a while to get used to it, but trust me. once you get better, it becomes much, much more satisfying.

Not really, it just isn't very fun to me in general. Has a very non-competetive feel to it.

I never got into CS:S either. Not only did the controls feel... awkward?... but I was terrible at it. I quit playing it after maybe a week and went to CoD4 (at which I was MUCH better).

Try more servers then. Because it can be very competitive.

I like CSS because of the realism. It doesn't take much to kill someone with a gun, just accuracy. And you're down for the count, so it's not mindless respawning. That's made for some of the most intense FPS matches ever.

CS:S is flipping uber intense. CS1.6>CSS>COD. And that's coming from a person who's clocked over 1,600 hours of CoD4.

LOL! Counter-strike sucks when you first play it because let's face it, its hard!. It took me literally years to get good at counter-strike. There's so many expert counter-strike gamers out there just waiting to pwn you around every corner.

Once you get good you'll enjoy it so much more. But honestly, nowadays MW2 multiplayerblows counter-strike out of the water.

in all honesty, CS:S is a challenging game full of ultra-competative players, even in non-clan servers.

as someone said earlier, go to CoD 4 if you need something less challenging.

however, if you practice and get good at CS:S, it is far, far, far more rewarding.

it also takes a while to find out what weapon youre best with...they all behave suprisingly different

I've been playing CS:S since 2005, and have greatly enjoyed it. I didn't like it at first either though.....

my favorite game of all time, you just have to take time to learn the nuances and find some good servers

p.s. enable dev console or w/e its called and then enter " cl_crosshairscale 5000 "

It's definantly alot different from other games, not the normal "Respawn, shoot, die, respawn, repeat" formula that other games follow *cough*Call of Duty*/cough*. Download some nice mods and addons to improve the experience.

Like others have said it's a very hard game that can take years to become consistantly good, there's a weird amount of depth to CS that's kind of hard to see at first glance.

Anyways the CoD series is easy, if you don't like the challenge get cod4/5/6.

CSS I remember I always was pretty good at it, mainly because I sprayed bullets and it got magical headshots. It led me into CAL-M rofl. I like Quake 3 more :)
