Can anyone tell me, why Counter Strike is so F***ing famous?

I think Counter Strike is 1 of the G**est Game/Mod ever, because its

ALWAYS the same, you spawn, get a gun and going to kill another

Player, without vehicles or whatever... isnt that getting Boring

after 3 Days?

It's fun for a little while, yes, but I wonder why it's so dang popular, too.

It was practically the first multiplayer game with good-ish graphics and gameplay so "new" (We're talking about the year 2000 here) that didn't suck / didn't get old fast.

To simply put it, VALVe got millions off it along side with Half-Life.


Presence is a curious thing, if you think you need to prove it... you probably never had it in the first place.

I just bought it off of Steam and played it for a little bit. It's the exact same thing over and over and over and over and over...

I've played Counterstrike for five minutes, and that was back in '01. The 56K connection wasn't much of a help, but needless to say, I wasn't having fun.

I doubt many Renegade players will actually enjoy Counterstrike, because Renegade is such a different animal in terms of gameplay.

Try the different game modes, like a few have said.

Surfing,
Zombie Mod,
Climbing,
Gun Games,
Aim/sniper only

These add variety to the generally boring 'eliminate the enemy team' style of gameplay over and over.

With surfing, you glide swiftly over sloped peices of terrain to get to a goal. This goal may contain new weapons or controls to give you an advantage over the other players (knocking them off while surfing, etc).

The zombie mod is a team based game. At the start of the round a person selected at random is a zombie. Zombies can move fast, have high ammounts of health and armour but only have a knife. The humans have weapons with unlimited ammo, and bullets that really push zombies back. The aim of the game is to eliminate the zombie before they turn everyone else into a zombie.

Climbing, is basicly jumping from one block to another going higher and higher to a goal. At this goal is either weapons or pornographical images depending on the map.

Gun games require skill. You start off with a simple weapon like the starting pistol, and if you make a kill during a round, you get a better pistol. This will continue to go up the entire weapon lineup of rifles, SMG's, snipers, and whatnot until you end up with a knife. Kill with a knife and you've won. Be killed at any time and loose a level and go back a weapon.

Aim/snipers is just that. Snipers only. Usually open area maps and everyone gets AWP's etc.

It's not all the disarm the bomb or rescue hostages...

The gun game server that I play on is backwards... You start out with a powerful weapon, then gradually descend twoards the pistols... Then you need a grenade kill to get to the knife level. It's pretty cool.

Also, Hide-n-Seek. It's fun and hilarious as hell.

Fox, not all Zombie Mod servers are unlimited ammo, I prefer limited ammo ones, unlimited ammos start to piss you off after a while. In Love

The only thing that bugs me about CS, is CSS. This game is sooo over hyped, when I played it, I almost shat a brick thinking people waste their time on such a bullshit game...The grahics are too cartoony and toned down, and the fact that the players are 75% less than 12 years old...CS:CZ is the only CS I like/play.
