That's right!
>On June 19, 1999, the first public beta of Counter-Strike was released
When was your first Counter-Strike experience?
It was around 2005 with CS:S. I got my first gaming-capable pc during those times and HL2 + CS:S were my first games on it. I absolutely loved CS:S and spent countless hours playing those silly zombie mods and surf maps.
It's been 12 years. I just want to go back and enjoy the good old naive days, when I was 12 years old and it was all so new to me.
Hold me, /v/.
christmas time i get source one year. Loved that game have pike 480 hours into it.
>paying for mods

+1000 hours combined between 1.5 - 1.6
still have friends from that era, early 2000 till 2005
kids these days will never know playing a game without the need to invest cash on needless skins or brag about ranks, everyone played just to have fun with friends

i think i first played it in beta 4. i remember the silenced colt had a zoom. playing assault and siege with my friends and my friend's brother in his basement on the weekends. i guess you could call that the beginning of my ruined life.

Tried a few betas and didnt enjoy them. I started playing it non stop with 1.1.
Like 03 or something, when steam came out

buggy ass hl1 vehicles. wasn't there one on militia for a bit too? one of my friends' favorite maps was jeepathon2k. you could plant the bomb on a jeep and drive it around. you'd get stuck in the ramps and walls and ground. we played that shit for hours.
1999 at a friends house. His older brother was like "yo try this mod".
Didn't really get back to it until 1.3 when I was in highschool and ended up playing it every day after school for hours.
