Counter Strike 2
Discussion
Has anyone played this yet?
It's not as good as GO was in my opinion (yet). The beta felt clunky and now the full release seems very easy to get headshots. Still enjoying it though! And I'm sure it will eventually surpass the old game.
I was DMG-LEM in GO but have managed to lose about 6 games out of 8 so far. The players I'm playing with at the moment are mostly bad and very angry.

Downloaded it the other day, I haven't played Counter Strike for about 20 years in the days of CS 1.6 and before Steam even existed.
Good to see a couple of familiar maps (Office/Italy) but disappointed they've got rid of Aztec
Surprisingly I'm still not too bad online (Either that, or the people I'm playing are s
t!)

I used to work for a dot.com back in the day as the head of operations/IT manager. I ran a CS server and I'd print and pass round a map rotation menu each Monday for the week :-) - Had pretty much every member of staff bar HR and PAs playing at lunch time, and then at 5 :-) Eventually switched to Day of Defeat Good to see a couple of familiar maps (Office/Italy) but disappointed they've got rid of Aztec

aside from my lack of ability, freezing when zooming in/out or when there are multiple people on screen it feels much more free flowing than GO was, more akin to source/1.6. Unfortunately I'm regularly finding myself absolutely mullered by AWP shots at close range and almost every death is a headshot so either everybody else is much better than me...quite likely these days or its needs some tweaking as people have quicky found tricks.
I will say what I really need is a more processing power and to play in a headset so I can also hear where people are

Played 1.6 back in the day, Source and a tiny bit of Go. Loved Day of Defeat!
Just gave this a go and it's fine. I was usually dead before I even saw who was shooting at me. Did get a few kills thought and not bottom so that's something.
Didn't recognise any of the maps.
What's the deal with these loot cases? are there better guns or is it just paint jobs? you seem to have to pay to get your prize.

If you play a certain amount of hours per week, you'll be given a choice of 4 items. What I tend to do is go for the crates, immediately put them up for sale at 1p below asking price so they sell straight away. End up earning a little bit into my Steam account (about £300 over 10 years). If you wait for games to come up for sale you can get a fair amount for 'free'.Just gave this a go and it's fine.

If you buy a key to unlock your case, you'll get a gun with a skin. Guns with skins are no different to the ones without skins in any way, only cosmetic.
I also like this game. Though opinions were divided, this upgrade turned out to be exciting for me. I had doubts at first, but watched several matches www.profilerr.net/cs-go/matches/ and decided to give CS2 a try. Yes, it differs from CS:GO, but it is also good.
