Everything else is a good alternative because the gunplay of CS was never good.
Counter-Strike was only popular because it was one of the best mods for everbodys darling Half-Life.
CSGO with how players move with no actual acceleration leads to a lot of random jiggle peeks, bullshit and silent steps that completely gimp any defensive play. You have to peek and commit or just die. In 2013 it was all ADADA spam, right now it's just about cheese tactics and easy headshots due to how playermodels stand up completely straight with almost double the size of the player models from 1.6 with similiar movement speeds. If you can twitch at people, you win games. If you want an actual game, play anything else.
This, CS was a mildly popular game with good staying power until Valve introduced lootcreates to FPSes. It took off in popularity just because of the digital goods and economy involved. No one unironically likes playing it just for the gameplay.
>No one unironically likes playing it just for the gameplay
this, thats why theres a cs-scene thats fully funded by itself and not fully dependent on dev money like every other esport
r-r-right guys?
am yuro so cant speak for NA, but here it's always been very popular.
Counterstrike was never that big. >m-muh chinese netcafe pirated copies
Quickly replaced by f2p korean shit. It's why CS:S was never as popular. The asian market moved onto different titles and took 90% of the playerbase with it. >M-MUHCHANICS
1.6 is better than Source and GO but it was still dogshit, don't kid yourself. The only reason why people play CSGO is for skins and delusions of becoming an e-sports pro.
[...]
You realize gachashit and skins was why free to play games stole Counter Strike's thunder in third world shitholes to begin with right? CSGO stole it back by coming back and making lootcrates and skins mainstream.
ok, but anon CS had a legacy before GO for a reason. again, maybe it wasn't AS big in the states, but the original mod, 1.5, 1.6, and CSS were extremely popular in yurop. 1.6 and CSS still has plenty of players, community servers etc. unfortunately CSGO succeeded, and killed off the fun that was the earlier games. >The only reason why people play CSGO is for skins and delusions of becoming an e-sports pro.
that is probably correct, considering that even some schools now have e-sport coaches which focuses mostly on CS:GO, but saying that Counter-Strike was never big is just incorrect.

if you want to destroy your friendship play csgo/dota or their riot copies
maybe an arpg like diablo3 or poe
rocket league apparently is pretty popular
Is counterstrike even any good? It just never interested me but maybe I should play it before I knock it idk. I feel like COD and BF if done right would be way better than any CS game.
I seriously do not get it. I'd rather play COD, BF, Gears, Halo, Killzone 2 and plenty of other games over CSGO. I'd even rather play MAG if that ever was brought back from the dead. Very strange to me how CSGO has been the number 1 competitive shooter for so many years at this point.
skin gambling, it would have died years ago if those knives and skins weren't a way to get hundreds of free games through sheer luck. it's mainly attractive to poors in south america, europe and asia to try and pull this garbage and make cash off it. Just playing gets you boxes that also net between $.50 and $6 usd.
theres a reason its basically still the same game from 1999
very hard to master, if you hit the end of the ingame ladder system youre still far away from actually being pro
and theres shitloads of cheaters in their inhouse matchmaking, even on lower ranks
so after you learn 2-3 maps and smokes for them you should play faceit or esea, even though your teammates may hate you

It sucks. It has many problems. One example would be the soulless giant empty map design. Imagine if somebody made a football field a literal map for an FPS, no cover, too much open space.
Basically if you played the beta, you'd realize why it sucks.
It’s shit. BF4 has shitty maps. BF1 was a fantastic game, yet I’m convinced it was a fluke somehow. Nearly 10/10 maps , weapons, and gameplay experience. Every weapon is viable from shotguns to iron sight bolt actions to smgs

BF1 has terrible gunplay go frick yourself moronic Black person
i also think BF1 was made completely by accident.
Its the only playable Battlefield since Bad Company 2.
But i only used planes, so my opinion is biased.
The gunplay was utterly moronic though, wasnt it the first BF with the "random bullet deviation" horseshit?
As in, bullets go everywhere, EXCEPT straight out of the fricking gun?
>BF1 >good
kek >But i only used planes, so my opinion is biased.
Yes, heavily.
>The gunplay was utterly moronic though, wasnt it the first BF with the "random bullet deviation" horseshit?
BF1 had extreme spread at launch, people were getting accidental headshots.
BFV had the spread to recoil conversion + not screen centre so gunplay was completely random (had this conversation before but on Consoles they have 30% less recoil + using a controller, it didn't really matter as much).

What's wrong with random bullet spread? Seems like a great way to balance the different weapon classes. E.g. the shorter the barrel, the more spread the gun can have. Bulletspread matters less the closer to your target you are, meaning SMGs and handguns remain extremely lethal in close and you don't have to do something silly like reducing their damage like most games do.
Nothing. Everything is dumbed down, skilless, milsim, battle royale garbage >battlefield
Died after 3. Anybody that says anything else is coping, especially BF4 players.
BF1 had potential but typical DICE fashion forgot how to make an FPS game.

it is still played crazyly
True. And 1.6 is more active than source. But the gunplay is still shit.
by people who live in the third world and watch DC superhero TV shows, yeah
it's the same people who play homm3 so clearly they have taste

Csgo has no acceleration? You dont have to adad to stop your momentum?
there's no momentum in the movement, you just go full speed almost instantly. try moving in 1.6 then csgo and youll know what I mean.

>BF4
how is that still alive?
Lots of people started playing BF4 in anticipation of BF2042, and when they realized it sucks, they went back to BF4.
online keys kost 5 euros now
worth it?
i played it when it was free sometime when it was new and it wasnt that bad actually but how is it now
and is it worth starting with now or am i too late?
It's never too late, heck I've been playing for a long time and I don't even know how to fly helis or jets, but that doesn't matter, because I have an entire server of people to shoot at.
It's great, You can find like 10+ full servers during the busy hours. Shooters these days suck so you might as well stick with the old.
what are the 100 DLCs? single player? do i just need the game?
depends on the maps you want to play, premium edition has all the dlc, you can get it for like $15 on key sites

Frick off Blizzard, nobody wants to play a nofun stressful shooter like Overwatch.

BFV is beyond moronic and made the gunplay random.
currently the most-played Battlefield game
people were mad at it a long time ago but nobody really remembers why
I played over a thousand hours of the 360 version of BF3. I wish they would remaster it so I could play it in the full 64 player glory.
Maybe not a real alternative but i find Insurgency: Sandstorm to be somewhere in the middle of CS:GO and RO2.
