Why is Source way more thriving than CSGO still, despite the inflated # of players?

very few good private servers and very few people play custom maps, everyone just cares about the shitty competitive and playing dust2 over and over

Fuck CSGO, if I want to talk shit to retards while drunk I play CSGO, if I want to have genuine fun I can just play 1.6 or CSS.
>>388626723
Why did they change so much? Like, what is the M4A1 not default? And why does it have fewer rounds?
And the skins are ugly as fuck, I can't even use the AK because it looks like so much shit.
Css was shit, cs go is shit
1.6 is where its at

There's your problem
>>388626316
So im not the only one who thinks csgo is pretty much cscz.
Did they ever the zombie mode to work or something?
I'd reinstall to try it out if its somewhat popular.
>>388626316
The competitive scene ruined Counter Strike.
>>388626316
>>friend convinces me to give GO a chance after being a hardcore hater
>after being a hardcore hater
>give GO a chance
Wait, this doesn't make sense. Normally "give X a chance" means that you haven't engaged with the thing yet so you have no experience with it. But you said you were a hardcore hater. How can you hate something you have no experience with?
>>388626316
Unlike previous CS games, CSGO went out of its way to promote its matchmaking and to obscure any presence of the old days of custom servers. They pretty much made it so everyone believes that 5 vs 5 should be the only way to play the game on virtue that it's "competitive" and that any other way is too imbalanced or not part of the main game. Why play any other way when it won't earn you a nice shiny rank to show how good you are? Why play custom maps when they are inherently imbalanced and not used in the competitive scene? Why go search for a decent server when matchmaking is right there to easily get you a game?
Hell, I'm almost certain that a huge of chunk of the playerbase doesn't even know what a server browser is.

Actual best counter strike coming through.
This image genuinely makes me sad
WAIT A FUCKING SECOND
WHAT IS THE NAME OF THE CHURCH MAP IN CSS? CAN I STILL PLAY THIS?

This is why no servers had this available in 1.6 & Source.
Stop playing loser/stonner games and buy Quake Champions, no person that has ever achieved something has been a CS player.

HOW DO YOU PEOPLE ENJOY THIS?!
I don't know what kind of shithole you guys on but we've spent nights with a couple friends playing only surf deathmatch or minigames in European servers.
>>388629207
did you even play 1.6 or css? i don't remember any server removing awp. i'm sure that some did but certainly not majority. also scout is way better anyway and actually fun to use.
>>388629609
If they did have it, it was usually limited to 1 per team, same with auto-sniper.
>>388627796
So it's literally a rehash of CS1.6 with the only difference being better graphics and a cheaply made single player campaign?
ACTION QUAKE 2 BOYS WHERE WE AT
>>388627796
CS 1.6, CSCZ, and CSS are 1:1 copies of eachother with different grenade damage & recoil.
>>388629297
>Champions
YOU HAVE TAKEN THE LEAD in faggotry
>>388629297
end ur life
>>388629207
The AWP in TF2 even jokes about how many CS servers have banned it.

AHHH THERE'S NIPPER MAPS IN GO?!?!?!?!?!
does go have minigames/puzzles the way source and other mods do?
>>388630298
The inclusion of vehicles in Half-Life 2 should've lead to an improved func_vehicle
>>388629705
not even in the slightest. Even the movement in GO feels like your playing on a freshly waxed kitchen floor
>>388630460
Gmod did that desu.
>>388630340
Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

because new players on GO complain about it being unbalanced when they are just bad, forcing changes that nobody (except shitties) wanted.
>>388631591
meant for
>>388627004
also i agree entirely, skins are shit but the "updated" sounds are even worse
shit game, shit changes
let's all just go back to 1.6 plz
>>388627014
only children parrot the 1.6 shit. it was fine at the time but if you don't play css your a tryhard faggot
>>388628630
game was fun as hell enough differences. think there was a riot shield. damn I need to find a copy
>>388633613
CSS is garbage dude
the only thing going for it is custom maps and meme gamemodes
>>388633708
There was a riot shield in CS1.6 too but most servers disable it because it's OP
>>388633713
I tried going back to 1.6 and it just bores me. css is garbage but its my kind of garbage. at least it looks good still
>>388626316
css in terms of actual competitive value its completely dogshit and no one ever took it seriously
css did have all the custom maps and mods because it had several years of time to build up that much, while csgo was made to be competitive from the ground up and restrict the amount of custom shit you could actually add
>>388633967
>while csgo was made to be competitive from the ground up and restrict the amount of custom shit you could actually add
And yet Goldsrc had both competitive play and custom content
ITT: Silver shitters
>>388633776
it's not OP, it's annoying as fuck to play against.
REVIVE NEOTOKYO
CSS is the only I ever really liked, it feels the fastest out of the three. GO sucks dick and 1.6 doesn't have proper widescreen fov so it's miserable playing on a modern computer so I don't bother with it.
>>388634267
>Neotokyo
>wanting to revive a competitively unviable game
Fuck off.
I think in memory of what was the greatest FPS to ever hit the market, every modern FPS game out there should make a Dust 2 map of their own.
>>388633967
>csgo was made to be competitive from the ground up
it literally started out development as an xbox 360 counter strike source port lol, so i dont know about that
>>388634851
does the console version even exist? CSGO was mad eprimarily to bring cs to consoles
the fact that it became the de facto and mots popular version of CS ever is weird to me, and I am cs player since beta 5, i knew gooseman personally.
>making a call out

If you're talking about Dust 2, it's catwalk now. I actually had someone sperg out at me for calling it short.
>>388636241
fuck them, it's still short.
