goodnight sweet counter strike. it has been a pleasure.

ahhh now i can put all my Hd shit too good use... must use all interwebz and megabits of grafixs!

sounds like mw2 now, awesome. D: D:
Atleast we still got our mods.

I better be able to use the shit-ton of skins I downloaded in this new version, otherwise I will fucking kill Valve.
What's the point of this, to make it more familiar to nooby console gamers?

too make casual gamers (aka the guys who makes games bad) more happy. its basically going to turn into counter strike : casual and all the mw2 kiddies and tf2 kiddies will be super excited because there will be super awesome acheesements and super awesome mvp stars.

basically its making this game shit unless you can disable all of it client side.

As long as we get better graphics and gameplay doesn't get affected its gonna be great

it's actually more becoming TF2.

haters gonna hate. I'm excited! :]]]]

it's just less competitive and more casual friendly (like sitrik said)

the graphics aren't going to change, and they don't really need to and yes the gameplay is going to be slightly different

maybe they are going to keep them seperate games somehow, so there's a "tf2 cs:s" and just the ol' cs:s

All they needed to do was fix hit registration and interpolate. Adding achievements and mvp stars and the like is just opening the doorway for fucking hats and shit. The game is fine the way it is right now. Nobody who plays the game consistently wants these changes it's only the casual faggots who get on once a week for an hour who want them. They will get bored with it in a month and go back to playing tf2 then all of us who actually enjoyed the game and stick with the game will be left with this shit.

I hope so.

agreed, but i have to admit that i will pop on the "tf2 cs:s" just for funsies
