dude, how do you guys still play cs its so old, last time I enjoyed it was 6 years ago when I was in elementary school, now its soo boring to me, run in a small map shoot, kill, die, wait for next round to start, BORING, and the bomb, theres no point in arming the bomb. Maybe if you guys make a ranking system, and put in match making servers, you can leave dedicated servers unranked and throw in new gametypes then I will enjoy it, but until then its a perfect excuse to waste time, and no other games dont waste time because you can acomplish things.

Do you have any idea how old this game is? The fact that it's still being played says a lot IMO.

Umm...I'm pretty sure that you'll have to talk to Valve about that. As in, the guys who actually make the game.

New gametypes? NEW GAMETYPES? Are you freaking kidding me? It's a PC game it has like 6 or 7 major mods for it and loads of other one off mods as well, RPG servers, Paintball mod, Biohazard mod, deathmatch, etc etc.

"no other games waste time becuase you can acomplish things"

:lol:... ahh man that was such a depressing statement, one day every gamer will regret spending more time with a gaming system rather than spending more time with friends and family.

Oh and as to why people are still playing it... well thats because they can :|.

dude, how do you guys still play cs its so old, last time I enjoyed it was 6 years ago when I was in elementary school, now its soo boring to me, run in a small map shoot, kill, die, wait fGor next round to start, BORING, and the bomb, theres no point in arming the bomb. Maybe if you guys make a ranking system, and put in match making servers, you can leave dedicated servers unranked and throw in new gametypes then I will enjoy it, but until then its a perfect excuse to waste time, and no other games dont waste time because you can acomplish things.Boomshield

You can join open leagues for competitve CS (which is why the game got so huge).

most competitive game series on the planet > whatever you like. Thing about CS is I don't have to expect another one in the series every 2 or 3 years and it doesnt fade.

I used to play CS all the time, but now whenever I try to go back to it I just can't do it. The high learning curve makes it pretty addictive for a beginner, but once you get used to the aiming and become a pretty good player, it gets really old really fast. There's one pointless game mode and a couple of OK mods. That's it. There's no stat-tracking or leaderboards or anything, so the incentive to play just isn't there.

I used to play a good amount of CS 1.6 back in the day. Since that community is mostly league-based I went and got CS Source.

I played for a week and just got bored of it. But then again CoD4, BF2 and several others have followed the same fate.

League is perfect incentive and more than some lame ass trophy system and stat collector.

You can make clans and leagues in any game. CS probably has the most solid gameplay in any FPS, but there's no denying that it's bare bones. It doesn't have any features to speak of, has one official game mode, and has a **** interface. Yes, I know it was originally a mod, and I know that it's ancient, but that doesn't change the fact.

I'm actually going to play it again right now, just to get a taste of it, but I don't see it holding my attention for long.

thats the exact reason why you play Zombie, Zombie alone makes this game have unlimited replay value..

CS is boring to people who are:

1.)impatitant for the next round to start..or has never played a round based game..

2.)completly suck at this game and whine and moan about people who keep killing them with a AWP.

3.) people who always think there rambo and think that CSS is some kind of run'n'gun game.

and 4.) dont understand what mods are.

CSS is much better than a majority of other online shooters..it takes skill.it uses teamwork to win but not on the same level as TF2, you have to understand how the weapons work and the maps you play in. and understand what weapons you work best with and which weapons work best in what situation..almost none of that CoD4 has..not matter what gun you have in CoD4 your almost gaurenteed a kill..its the complete oppsite in the CS series..which is the main reason why CS is one of the most competitive online games ever created and games like CoD4 will never be taken serious.

CS used to be good when it was at beta 7... Everything after was the slow death of that game to me.

Once Steam was implemented into that game I quit. Steam is a piece of crap program IMO. Can't play the game without it now.

Truth_Hurts_U

I dont understand why people dont like steam..you start it up, go to my games, launch and play the game...Steam used to have problems but now almost all of them are fixed..Steam is a great program, if you want to play SP game just go offline.the only problem i have is when you want to start a SP game offline and it was patching and wont let you play other than that there is no real valid reason to hate Steam...

and Steam should not keep you from playing a game, if you have a reason to hate it i would love to hear it.

I will agree, TF2 is much better imo. In CS team work doesn't matter, and there is no assist points, so if you and a team mate shoot at an enemy at the same time and you do 99damage and your friend does 1 damage he gets all the credit, and you get all the nerds that go "OMG LOL he doesn't even have 3 kills!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" thats because I do most of the work and they just shoot him once. The only thing that is ruining it for me is the lack of point system (TF2) and the horrible community.
