    This game is viral. So popular, I decided to give it a try. I ended up playing for 165 hours. It is the kind of game you tell yourself that you're done playing and end up coming back to it repeatedly. Since it is a online game, it certainly helps that it is so popular.

I ended up playing for 165 hours. It is the kind of game you tell yourself that you're done playing and end up coming back to it repeatedly. Since it is a online game, it certainly helps that it is so popular. That makes the ways to play the game infinite, as your opponents are someone completely new. The graphics are decent in this game, and the mechanics are good. The game never got boring. Also, there are some highly skilled gamers in this online community. Sometimes it is unbelievable to how dedicated the gamers are to this game, some spending upwards to 2,000+ hours on it. You will find committed gamers playing this game, and yes, there is much competition playing this game!

    The competitive nature of the game was a thorn in my side. This thorn is personal, but it does affect my feelings about this game. See, winning is very important to all that play this game. Many people are playing, so the competitive nature is given a spotlight. I just could not match against anyone in this game. It was not that I did not play long enough, I mean 165 hours is a long time to me. Raised on 007 Nintendo shooters in late 1990's, I know I am a competent FPS gamer. I have come to terms with a tremendous ping rate, since I live on an island in the middle of the Pacific Ocean: Hawaii. Hawaii has the highest ping of any US state (2022 data) because of its physical distance from the Main Land. I do not see this changing anytime soon, because you cannot bring the islands closer to the Main Land. This CS:GO game is all about accuracy; you have to align a target with a player by using the mouse. However, if you live in a state with high ping, you will not beat the other guy with 20 ms. It will not happen, I feel, regardless of my skill level. I was about 80 ms and it just was too slow to enjoy this highly precise game. I played the game with a shotgun, something where precision was not needed. However, even then, one has to react when turning corners. A Hawaii ping will not work with this game at all, leaving me with a bad feeling. If I lived somewhere with a 10 - 20 ms ping, I am sure this game would be a green eight or nine. Personally, I have to review it as a 5 - because the game relies far too much on ping to be successful. Yes, I am sure if I played the game for 2000 or even 1000 hours I would be good enough to hold my own... but I just didn't see the benefit to that as I was pretty crushed. If you generally have a high ping when playing video games, do yourself a favor and do not play this game. Everything will rely on that low ping, so do not waste your time.    … Expand

    I'm not a big fan of shooters, and this one isn't the exception.

    Graphics are outdated compared to other games at the time, there are a ton of hackers and normal matches are a mess. I'm not giving less score because I haven't played too much, but it could probably be worse.

    This is the COP, from the pluses of the system requirements. Of the minuses of anti-cheat, the evil community is also for "Free-to-play"

    One of the best esports games. Nothing superfluous and skill decides. But the game has a terrible anti-cheat and the whole opinion about the game deteriorates

    The game is good, but the game is infuriating that low-ranking people are fighting with high-ranking players. Let's say I'm new to the round and against I'm played by professionals And of course I will lose.

    A good trust factor, I start the game - only cheaters come across.
    Graphics, physics, everything is fine.
    But.. There is no anti-cheat at all.

    Once a great game I would have given an 11/10 has fallen to a mere 6. Game is full of hackers, it is almost impossible to play a match without running into one that just ruins it for everyone. Going free to play has ruined the game forever.

    Pretty good game. Controls well, has ok gun balance, and has a few game modes to keep from getting stale. That being said, there aren't that many guns in the game and its age is beginning to show.

    Графика и геймплей
    Графику с момента выхода меняли и она на этот год не выглядит совсем плохо учитывая что вышла она в 2012 на нее приятно смотреть, ну теперь геймплей: точка А точка В заложи на них бомбу или обезвредь спаси заложников или же убей вражескую команду и в 2019 году добавили еще королевскую битву вообщем геймплей за этих 22 года сильно не поменялся.
    Коммьюнити
    Это самая плохая часть игры шокольники которые чото там орут работяги которые пришли с завода чтобы поиграть под пиво читеры и моного всякого подозрительного сброда есть и нормальные но это маленький шанс встретить адекватного человека и я понимаю это не проблема игры это проблема нашего общества.

    There are two things that make this game special; that it's free and the community. You get a lot of bang for your buck, and the community is filled with all different kinds of toxic, eccentric basement dwellers and college kids that make the experience very entertaining.

    Культовый компетитив шутер, о котором знает огромное количество людей.
    Плюсы:
    1. Оптимизация: потянет абсолютно на любом железе; 2. В игре есть пространство для майнд геймсов, причём как в соло игре (бхоп, различные нестандартные перемещения по карте), так и в командной (огромное количество раскидок/фейкраскидок, которые теперь может делать даже 1 игрок, если все остальные ему скинут    Культовый компетитив шутер, о котором знает огромное количество людей.

    3. Игра полностью скилозависимая и чем больше ты в нее играешь, тем соответственно у тебя больше ранг/лвл фейсита;

    2. Еще большее количество токсиков, нытиков, руинеров (в сравнении с дотой конечно меньше, но всё так же дохуя);
    3. Валв выдают возможность патруля с гм1, в следствии чего в игре есть определенное количество рофлобанов патрулём;
    4. Игре уже 10 лет и Габен все еще не сделал 128 тикрейт;

    Fun game, but you do need to play a lot to learn it, which would not come as a surprise. Personally I don't like this game and think there are better shooters out there, but everybody has their own taste.

    A fast, demanding shooter with a huge potential for the future. It's basically CS: Source, but the maps are more polished and the game looks better. [11/2012, p.64]

    For a non-professional Counter-Striker, Global Offensive is just a cosmetic facelift, with re-run levels. [Sept 2012]
