Bump. The release is soon. Some professional CS players have already tested it and the conclusion is: CS:GO isn't even remotely as awesome as CS 1.6.
After playing CS 1.6 for 6 years I still can't say I will give it up anytime soon and certainly not going to switch to CS:GO, but it's sad that 1.6 will not be played on any major tournaments pretty soon
Anyone of you have a mix they can play with? PM me if you do to play against me and my buddies. 5x5 ofc
Also, teamplay matters a lot:

I have a feeling you've only played on public servers, huh? Obviously you don't need teamplay on public, but on mix / cups / lans teamplay is like 65% teamplay and 35% skill, where communication between your teammates is absulutely vital, and that's what made this game so popular and that's why it's still being played for over 10 years. It's much like chess where you have to think way ahead of your opponent and read the game carefully, the better tactic you have, the better your chances are. And no, it's not only eastern europe, Sweden, Finland, Russia, Ukraine, Denmark, Norway, Germany and Poland are the major players. It's pretty much dead in USA though, but in eurupe it's fully living and gathering tens of thousands of viewers on cup streams. Know your factsGalkan wrote:
Not mentioning the fact CS series have the lowest teamplay factor among all shooters I've ever played (Enemy Territory, anyone?). I'm surprised that anyone outside poor eastern Europe actually plays this thing.
