This is the spiritual successor to CS:S and possibbly the last one of the CS family. While this game has the core elements of the previous games, it has strayed too far from what the game was started to become. Basically, Valve gets money-hungry, makes skins. Skins make gambling. Because of this gambling, professional teams throw and cheat in matches. Gambling is banned after CS:GO Lotto incident, but plenty of sites still exist and are made. But Valve still makes more cases, and even adds gloves, for obvious reasons. In the end, money is all that matters to developers, leaving us with a mess of a game. Hit-reg is still messed up, no 128 tick servers without external sites, rank system is still a poor representation of your skill level, overall, this game is not what we hoped it to be, when we asked for a better 1.6.

I've clocked thousands of hours in CS 1.6, but I don't need a thousand to tell you to stay away.
Valve barely listens to the community, but who cares, Stattrak Music Kits and Crimson Web Gloves!
