  • What if Valve threw a party, and nobody came? What if they made a new game, hyped it up, and a lot of people decided that it sucked?
    And what if it became a dark stain on the company’s legacy - one referred to equally with derision and sadness? No, we’re not talking about Artifact - we’re talking about Counter-Strike’s bastard son...

    This only pertains to the "competitive" side of CS, which wasn't as big as it is now. I played a lot of CSS and during that time, I probably couldn't name one pro team or player. I put all my hours into minigames/zombies/surf/jailbreak and, to me, that's where the game really shined.

      CS may not have been as big in 2005 as today based on pure player numbers and prize pools, but in terms of esports market share it had a much bigger slice of the pie. CS was the undisputed king of esports in the early/mid 00s. The only game that even came close to CS was the korean starcraft scene. CS:S was a travesty that fractured the competitive CS community and set it back 5 years, allowing other games to supplant it in the late 2000s like LoL and dota.

I was too young to even understand why the divide even existed, the source engine was just so much better than GoldSource. Looking back now I can understand why people didn't like it, but I still had thousands of happy hours playing CSS & I don't regret it. It was a great game.

      1.6 is for men. CS source is for kids, that's why CSS is a bad CS game.
      -CSS movement was so bad compared to 1.6, no double duck peeking, no ladder tricks to get to advantages places (e.g tuscan ladder) etc. 1.6 movement is so much more fluid compared to CSS
      -Much reduced wallbanging compared to 1.6 so it has a much lower skill ceiling
      -CS Deagle is overpowered as hell, amazing running accuracy and low recoil
      -No ammo buying so less economy management
      -No grenade damage going though walls so all your nade damage is blocked by small props
      -Dumb awp quickscope accuracy nerfs
      -Dumb barrels on dust2 etc that block movement when people shoot them e.g long a house doorwat
      -Huge hitboxes
      -Cluttered maps, not clean and simple like 1.6
      I'm not a fan of CSGO either but CSS is just an awful game.

    I feel this video is pretty biased. Should've included some Source players takes on the subject imo. Personally my favorite CS is Source Pre-2010 OrangeBox, an update which made it run/look worse and added useless shit like achievements, and honestly don't think CS:GO really has anything on Source except money from skins. Also I believe Source has a arguably smoother feel where CS:GO has a clunky feeling in comparison. The peaking becoming more viable in Source(as said in the video) rather than cs1.6 just makes aggressive play more viable and is a preference of play style. The point of saying the Source deagle is over powered makes little sense to me(unlike the aug/krieg)(unlike CT pistal1shotVSglock2shot) both teams always had access to deagle, so saying its overpowered doesn't make sense(overpowered over what?) the ak was still one shot at further distance, ak>deagle(and only T's could buy ak). And insulting Source/players by calling it "straight casual trash" doesn't really mean anything except furthering your belief without adding another reasonable point. ANYWAY I don't think Cs1.6 or Source are trash but I think its trashy how Valve managed to resell CS a third time where its borderline exactly the same game as Source while cs1.6 -> css was a huge overhaul in terms of engine graphics physics etc. As a Source player, CS:GO just feels like a reskinned worse Source that's also used as a gambling ad/front. JUST MY PERSONAL OPINION AND TAKE sorry for ramble & much love❤️

    • @anab0lic

      agreed ,i played source for 8 years and CSGO to me is a downgrade in so many ways....you really have to have had a lot of experience with CS source to know the specifics of why it was and still is a better game than CSGO.... experience that this video creator clearly did not have. There is a reason why most source players didn't switch to CSGO.... even when their was financial incentive.... they cant stand its inferior mechanics.

      CS:GO was even worse than Source for about the first year after it was released and was dead on arrival with only 20k daily peak players. It wasn't until the summer of 2013 when the developers finally started listening to the pro players feedback and implementing improvements to the game to make it feel more similar to 1.6 that csgo finally took off.

Meanwhile CS 1.6, shit graphics, weird hitboxes ( every fking time I had my crosshair on the enemies' head he just wouldn't die cause the hitbox was different), wallbangs everywhere and tactical shield. CsGO is also not that good. The hitboxes are still buggy, it took a lot to fix the smoke but and we have the SG553 which is pretty bullshit rn

    Valve went crazy with physics as part of the new Source engine in Half Life and showcased it in CS Source while also making some less than inspired choice when it comes to movement. Basically they littered the main maps with props that obstructed movement and introduced randomness (barrels, small trash that makes you rise in height and screws the crosshair position, etc.) and added the "slow down" mechanic when moving, that is when you stopped the player avatar didn't and moved with momentum a tiny bit which made the crosshair settle a bit later making you miss shots, this didn't exist prior and made for less precise gameplay. People who say it was easier are lying, it was easier to get good in 1.6

    Source was an abomination of the original Counter-Strike, there's no comparison at all. The engine alone makes the difference. Source engine is and will never be as good as the Half-Life engine, the netcode in the Half-Life engine was from Quake. New netcode is Valve trash, because they don't care about people with good/fast internet, they only care about allowing people with shit connections (100+ ping) have a better experience than someone with 10ms, because that opens up to more potential buyers and users of your product.

    And what about CSPromod, the source mod made by 1.6 purists who claimed that CSS needed to much ressources to run smoothly on computers ? They remade the same empty and ugly maps from 1.6 into source but, if I remember well, the mod was full of glitches and dumped too.

The worst core parts were things like hitboxes for a while and then tickrate sadness during it's latter years. Other than that, Source is actually still better than GO but never got the attention it deserved because Valve was busy with other (shit) at the time. Fast forward and with source 2, Valve literally rereleases CS:S with weird upgraded skins and monetizes everything that was free via source mods in GO. Change up a few things and say "this is a new game, give us money"
    also they help inject esports way more into this since esports boomed even more during the GO nascency.

    Source started the COD recoil.
    I hated Source. It was floaty, you can run and shoot and be insanely accurate, and the recoil patterns are COD like. and CS:Go continued that trend... they made it SLIGHTLY better than Source, but it's still COD Cones of Recoil, compared to CS 1.6.
    My favorite test for all 3 games. Grab an AK-47 and go spray a wall... don't counter recoil. I have to say this because most demonstrations online will counter recoil when doing the demonstration to lessen the differences.
    Ak-47 was wild and a full auto could be bigger than the enemy silhouette. In Source.... doing that is only a litte more than twice as big as the enemy Head-Hitbox. In CS:GO, it starts out like source but eventually will spread out to be the size of a person's torso.
    Source led CS to become more Halo Like (The floaty jumps) and more COD Like (The cone-of-bullets recoil).
    Source ruined CS because of it's physics.
    Lol "Not good enough for CS:Go" No.... CS Go ... uses Cone of Bullets and the Movement Tech (less floaty) than source. It's still EASIER and takes LESS SKILL to do CS:GO than it did to do 1.6. Its just CS:GO is pretty and has MTX... so the masses love it! It doesn't matter that the skill ceiling/floor is low... It looks pretty!
