    It's very competitive and also renovated in comparison with older versions, with very good gameplay.
    One thing I really love is the fact of don't need to have a huge computer power, but I think it can enhance graphics a bit for those people who have a better GPU.

    This is a great game, although when playing Casual in Defuse, just about everyone plays Dust 2, and that gets very annoying, I am very sick of this map now, but apart from that, a good game overall! Could have more modes (campaign where you could complete online with others? Like steam friends?)

    I came into this game with very little expectation for its success, after playing years of CS from the days of 1.3 up until its final release of 1.6 at a competitive level.

Its hard to convince someone like me that Counter-Strike could be re-released as a updated version of its predecessor. I feel like failed epicly with CS:Source, that game felt nothing like 1.6 actually it felt like a completely new game with similar version of maps. CS:Go is probably the closest game so far to bringing back to those days of the original 1.6 with a few perks that actually make it better in some aspects.

    Gameplay: Standard fps that isn’t friendly to your run and gun style. It revolves some sort of skill and when you play competitive you will find that its not a forgiving game. It requires focus and team co-operation. This game is made for multiplayer as there is very little single player content. Matchmaking is where this game shines, no longer are players searching IRC and forums or leagues for a scrim or match. You are given a rank that does fairly well at placing you with evenly matched players. You will encounter hackers who will ultimately ruin your experience but if you can see past that the game is very well made.

    Graphics: Up to date on today’s standards for computer graphic’s its nothing super special but it doesn't burn your eyes to play.

    Replay Value: Considering its completely a multiplayer game and has a competitive (E-Sport) side to it. It comes down to how much you enjoy it, if you do you will find yourself going match after match trying to achieve higher ranks or you will log in from time after time to mess around on a public server. Either way replay value is extremely high.

    Overall this game is a win, and if you are into the fps genre it is a must have. It will never replace 1.6 in the hearts of us old timers but it does justice to the name Counter-Strike.    … Expand

    A few years ago I wouldn't have even touched this game because it has a steep learning curve but last year I bought it on steam and I'm glad I did. It's a lot of fun. There aren't any classes or a level up system but it's pure tactical awesomeness.

    At first I didn't like it, but then they changed a lot of bugs, and annoying things that happened with this version, and the older ones. Now it's a pretty fun game, and you can use pretty much all the weapons, not just AWP, or Ak-47.

    I am still a little sucker for the old CS 1.6 times, but this one definitely gave me the "I want to play more" feeling that I usually got from 1.6 4 years ago.

    Tactical round-based FPS shooter. As a true fan and player of Counter-Strike 1.6 (3,534 hrs on steam record+LAN) I was a bit skeptical about my decision to move on GO, but I think I'm getting into it.

    One of the most, advanced and most pristine army games I have played, from its precision shooting, to its ridiculous amount of difficulty (what I mean here, is that you will die a lot more than any other army games I have played) and all the maps or most of them remind me of CS Source

None of the maps feel one-sided and you'll probably be finding your niche on each specific map. There are multiple gamemodes aside from the obvious Competitive gametype (my personal favorite). The graphics are really good and don't strain your PC even on a low level gaming rig. The game is worth its $15 asking price, and seeing as how Valve constantly updates the game, its value surpasses the price. You'll find yourself being stuck in the addicting grind to get better weapon skins and to complete challenge missions to unlock more skins. I'd recommend for FPS fans who play on the PC and who are looking for a good competitive game.… Expand

    This game is both fun and addicting at the same time. Very few problems when playing.

    The only thing that annoys me is the prices in the game. Almost $300 for a good knife, and keys are just way too expensive.

    Talk about improvement. CS:GO is by far one of the best team-based multiplayer shooters out there with almost perfect controls, graphics, classic shooting game play. Plus, it's not so resource-demanding; even some low-spec units can run this on a satisfying performance.

    This is the best competitive FPS game ever made, yet Valve will only limit it from it's full potential. Only good game type is competitive, competitive servers feel inconsistent and laggy, too many cosmetics (...and people seemingly want more of it), old engine, small dev team, hackers, and op pistols that still haven't been balanced properly.

    2) отсутствие карты - это может быть что-то, что в будущем будут решаться через патчи, но те же старые карты, и не многие из них. У вас есть Италия, пыли 1 & 2, Ацтек, офис, Нюк и поезд. В стандартном сценарии игры вы будете скучать эти довольно быстро! Что сказал, новые режимы игры добавили перефразированный версии старых карт (я.е краткий вариант поезда), но мне кажется, что это недостаточно контента на старте, чтобы держать аудиторию развлекали.
    3) постоянно меняющиеся модели - как старый игрок, я привыкла к цветам КТ = синий, террор = красный (или коричневый!). Однако, с СЅ:Go на каждой карте изменения в модели, который не так уж и плохо само по себе, однако на некоторых картах модели настолько близки по цвету, Вы не можете их отличить от любой разумной дистанции, после чего у меня при наведении на игрока, чтобы выяснить, являются ли они на моей стороне или нет....очень неприятно!!!!
    4) крест-волос - мне нравится старый сечения волос, однако я попытался использовать его, и это казалось бесполезной, так что теперь я должен использовать ту мерзость, что это "новый" крест-волос. Вы не можете изменить его цвет (насколько я могу сказать) и она занимает так много места на экране, когда бегают, его просто раздражает! Он, кажется, признать товарищеские матчи, так вот почему я использую его. В целом, очень бедный!

    I am going to give you a detail review about Counter Strike: Global Offensive. Comparing to old versions of Cs, this one is a bit different. We have the whole new map pool, which based on the architecture of some old maps, but in the new level of graphic quality.

Comparing to old versions of Cs, this one is a bit different. We have the whole new map pool, which based on the architecture of some old maps, but in the new level of graphic quality.

    Brand new Cs have a lot of things that Valve putted so much effort in, such as the new look for characters, new buy menu with circle shape. Everything from old game have been replaced by a high quality objects. Smoke, flash and grenade have been changed with a new look, more realistic. As usually, all the idea about maps, characters and guns are based on real life destination, real things and people. Texture, effect and sound are better than the old versions. In my opinion, I feel it easier to hear the sound of grenade when it came out, more clearly footsteps. Gameplay is really good, for people love Cs they will feel amazing when the gameplay do not have much change and they can easy to play as they used to do with the old version. They added more mode such as demolistion and arm race, more relaxing mode for online player to relax after ranking game. Brand new ranks for Csgo was created. You need to have 10 win games to display your skill rank, I think this rank system used to be very good when it is very accurate. But in 2018, match making systems are so bad, one because of hacking issue, two is about how system arrange group of people. Voice chat also on the game, make people can communicate better.

    The most developed thing is multiplayer. In 2018, Csgo is one of the best eSports game of all time with nearly 300 tournaments in 1 year. Price pool for 1 officially tournament is up to 150.000$. A lot of people contributed to make this game become a way better than other eSports game. I can say football and CSGO nowadays have the same industry, when they paid professional player and teams very good salary. Some people change their life when they play CSGO. Football have bet systems, CSGO also. Football have manager and sponsor, CSGO have it too.

    When talking about CSGO, they put more attention on how CSGO change life, lots people don’t care about gameplay and error or issues of the game, they are still play it for better ranked and some for money. Valve also just give CSGO less effort. Even there was a lot of issue but most of pro team still training it every day, from that we can know how CSGO change people life, make it become a real job .

    Overall, CSGO is not just a game, it is life for lots of people. Valve have created a good game, nice changed from older version that still make CS lover want to purchase. How Valve run their CS community actually make me impresss.    … Expand

    It is hard to give a score to a game where you spent over 500 hours. Is it good? Yes. Is it flawless - no. Occasional cheaters (at least for me) and rather lengthy 45-1h game sessions make it so I need to take a break from my to time.

    Para un buen emparejamiento se recomienda comprar o conseguir el Prime (que es una clase de membresía que da ciertos beneficios), ya que en el juego hay muchos smurfers (gente de nivel alto que se creó otra cuenta, para empezar desde cero con gente inferior y empeorar la experiencia de juego de los demás, generalmente solo por diversión) y hackers.
