But when I went Counter-Strike: Global Offensife, I didn't play, but was what she kratai now I have it and I liked it. The graphics are great, music is awesome, all well drawn, the models look great. There are new modes, which I am grateful. New weapons, new voice. One word of advise.    … Expand

    This game is possibly one of the BEST and most SKILLZ requiring multiplayer shooter game. When I talk about skillZ I'm not just talking about in game clicky skillZ. I am talking about strategical/mental skillZ. You can be super good at headshot or dragging, but if you can't strategize or work with your team you are screwed in this game.

    First Counter Strike game I've ever played, and albeit it had been a frustrating start getting used to the immense learning curve of the game, a couple of Youtube videos later and a bit of practice and I was fine. If you complain about how difficult the game is this is absolutely not, NOT Call of Duty. Excellent game and at a very reasonable $15.

    This is how you make an online shooter. Counter-Strike has dominated genre forever. Activision and EA has a lot to learn from Valve. In my opition we don't even need another Counter-Strike. CS: GO is so perfect and there is microtransactions which Valve makes money from.

    Counter-Strike will be the best online shooter forever.

    Believe me when I say, the people giving the negative reviews are just mad that they can't become a Nova.

    Valve's Counter Strike: Global Offensive really delivers in a way that's pleasing to us all.

The only problem is that CS:GO is practically just a re-distribution of the graphics where they need to be. It brings lots of new things to the table, but even with that, it's just Source with a makeover.    … Expand

    i see a lot of people complain that they cant just run around and hold down the mouse button, to you i say gb2cod/bf/halo. csgo and cs in general requires knowledge of each weapon and how that weapon behaves in certain situations.

    if you're looking for a fps that rewards skill, knowledge and strategy then csgo/cs is for you.

    the only down side to this game is the cheating and smurfing in comp mode. if valve could implement a better cheat detection system this game would be an 11/10.    … Expand

    Counter-Strike: Global Offensive is one of the best FPS games ever. It's not like Cod were you can spray and pray, because the game takes time to get good, or even moderately good at. I like the fact that you can't sprint. you have to take out your knife to run faster. Graphically it looks good, and it doesn't take a godly computer to play it.

You will meet people in the game that are mean, and some that are really nice. As for the Competitive Ban, if you lose connection from the internet or you just have a bad computer, there should be a system that can tell weather or not you are leaving the game intentionally. There also needs to be a better Anti-Cheat system, because I will occasionally play with a hacker. I do like the system for banning the Hackers, "Overwatch" because it gives the people who are moderately good and better a chance to help the community by submitting the forum that they are or are not hacking. I am also not the best player out there. In conclusion I would say that CS: GO is worth $15, but some thing can be improved… Expand

    i love it!!!!!!!
    games looks good even on its lowest aside from some shady textures here and there
    keep in mind you cant jump into the game blasting heads because the game is not easy to play
    good choice of weapons (and skins?)
    there are remastered maps and original maps also exist
    big amount of community support by workshop weapon skins and maps

    Can't recomend this if you live in europe. The game itself is one of the best counter strike games, but since the european servers are filled with 50% russians that speak in russian constantly on voice com, and if you show a sign of not being russian they kick you. This game really need some dedicated servers for the russians..

    So again, NOT recomended if you're playing in europe..

    The bad:

    This game will try to suck the money out of you. With its useless cases and skins that people seems to cringe about to the point where there starts to become $1000 skins. A virtual item we're talking about.
    This game would be so much better if it didn't have those cursed skins.

    The good:

    The game is pretty fun once you know how to play.

    Basically everything I dislike from a shooter. Very few movement (staying next to a box for 10 hours), a shop-based weapon system, and a terrible match-making, I understand it's a team-game but the balance in the teams is just terrible and the game is ultra-boring after a while, both because they never make maps rotations and because the game is just simply bad.

    Grafik ganz okay
    Modi sind super, ganz klassisch Bombenszenario und Geiselrettung
    Community ist für den Arsch! Jeder zweiter Gegner ist entweder ein Cheater oder ein Smurf.

    CS:GO is probably the best version of Counter Strikes history. Valve makes a lot of updates. Problem about the game is the bad anti-cheat(VAC), and the very toxic community. There are not a lot of glitches I have experienced in my 300 hours of playing. Its a good game but totally not perfect.

    CS:GO это CS:GO!!! :). Дичь несусветная, от которой все таки избавился и понял полноценно что такое настоящий сюжет в играх, и что его надо ценить.

    Que dire de ce jeu, à part que je viens de me prendre un cooldown d'une semaine car "je me suis trop fait kick" alors que ce sont seulement des kicks abusifs ? Ah si je sais, que le support vous dit juste qu'il s'en bat les couilles et qu'il vous pisse à la raie.

    Un bon zéro vu que du coup je n'ai jamais accès au contenu principal du jeu.

    The worst anti-cheat = VAC
    The best economists = Valve

    What to do for those who do not have money for "Prime-status"?
    Pain, suffering, hate - all this awaits you in this game.

    If the game claims to be cybersport game -
    the game must have anti-cheat better.

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