Hey fellow gamers, I was Just thinking about the new Cs.GO that is up and coming and I was wondering on what some people thought. Iv been playing cs since 1.4 and when source came into action I wasnt a huge fan, although I am now. Anyways.. Do you think Valve/steam are going to try to compete with COD/BF and put a price tag of say $50/60??... They know they have one of the biggest fan base and millions of people already playing it. Just curious as to what other people think they will do.

Thanks

-Chris

It'll also be released on PSN/Xlive as a downloadable title so I doubt it'll be full priced.

Nah, i think it's going to be like portal 2. At first it had cod/bf price but they quickly set a more reasonable and more realistic price for the game. I bought css bit later after release, around 2005 and i paid the full price, but i'll consider paying 30 dollars for an old engine game...

They've already said it's going to be a $20-30 game.

The focus of this game is competition, 5 v 5 play. They have both clans from 1.6 and CSS beta testing and they are working on finding a good medium between the two. The maps are being rebalanced for 5 v 5 play. There is going to be a ranking system and matchmaking so people can play with people of their similar skill.

Personally I'm quite excited for it. CSS is a game that could really use some sort of matchmaking when you want to play a bit more competitively.
