Is cs 1.6 the most SOULFulL FPS ever made?

R6 was absolute fucking trash, full of bugs, the worst fucking netcode every made and some retarded game design (best sniper/gun being a 100% accurate uzi with acog in a one shot headshot game for example)

it was a meme game

"realism" is kill.

Operation Health was the last good update. I still found spawn peaking to be some of the funniest shit ever. Acing a team with Tachanka's LMG turret on house or consulate was priceless.

Rook p90 lean chads where you at?

It wasn't perfect but it had the potential to be amazing. But we also can't have nice things.

I'm more of an fy_poolday guy myself.

This. Siege was never going to be a good game due to instant-ADS with no weapon sway or spray penalties. Played that shit for 2 years and it all boiled down to memorizing the best peek locations and abusing the shit netcode to headshot the enemy before they even see you on their screen.

Fuck Ash and fuck Smoke.

Operators. It's less tactical now than it was 6 years ago and the devs more or less leaned into it. The game was on a high until after operation health.

USE ULTIMA NOW USE IT NOW ADMIN ADMIN

*30+ people shooting guns with no stopsound*
*low quality voice chat of people arguing and yelling*
Take me back bro..

Based. It’s a completely shit game that only lives on because of sunk cost fallacy where people have literally played it their entire lives and cannot let go of muh extreme competitive shooter with absurd RNG mechanics.

>it's not skill based at all.
ADMIN HE'S DOING IT SIDEWAYS

the shooting and nadeing aren't skill based, the rest is.

>muh skill based
It's called having fun. Try it.

The force will be with you, always.

CS1.6 was definitely one of the (if not THE) best FPS ever made. CSGO is currently the best competitive FPS with an active scene but they really struck gold with 1.6
In fact, other than CS:GO there were literally zero games that got even close to CS1.6 since it came out, it's kind of crazy how much better than the competition the Counter-Strike franchise is (Source was kind of a flop but the community servers with fun mods were the best in the series so I'm willing to give it a pass. CS:S jailbreak/surf/bhop/deathrun was maybe even more soulful than CS1.6)

fpbp
play a good game like RTCW or Quake instead

any crackhouse bros?

Top players remain consistent. Your concept of balance is meaningless. Go flip coins if you want a perfectly fair game.

Identity culture is beautiful. Identifying through [PRODUCT], [BRAND], or [CORPORATION] is so cool!

is it gungame

good place to practice aim
I miss CS before I broke into the amateur pro scene and realized everyone is just a fucking cheater

okay, zoomer.

what is it based on then
>the game is far more about getting lucky with the positioning and campers have the initiative because whenever you move you suddenly become unable to hit the broad side of a barn, which in turn requires memorizing the map for known camper spots to grenade ahead of time
ngl bro you sound like a fucking retard so
- yes you should learn the maps and people who maps better than you will have an advantage
- there is only luck in positioning if you have zero awareness about what's going on and blind peak angles
- spray patterns and weapon inaccuracy based on velocity makes you think about what you are doing and ultimately adds a more tactical and structured approach to your gameplay. as in you can't reliably get rewarded for just holding down fire and you don't reliably get rewarded for being a retard and running at people while firing. it requires some thought to the battles you take. the genius with 1.6's skill ceiling is that you don't have to be that mechanically gifted to be quite good if your strategy is just better than the other team's
the only point you make that is somewhat agreeable is that the weapon design is dumb as there are several sidegrade weapons that kind of suck like the ump or the 228.
it sounds like you enjoy faster, more chaos based shooters and that's just not 1.6

What about counter strike source

>don't have to be mechanically gifted
translates to
>don't need skill
therefore, game is not skill-based

Wow so many old gamers here!

CS and CSGO fucking sucks as a competitive game but for deathmatch it's really really fun.

I LOVE ice cream

thanks

Devs kept nerfing the best weapons over and over again, ads became very sluggish, hipfire (inb4 some MilsIm fag gets mad it gets called hipfire) accuracy is as bad as Africans during bushwar.
The best you can do as an aggressive player is walk around already aiming down sights with an lmg

Man I used to play that all the time.
Then steampipe happened and ruined all my custom models and textures from fpsbanana. I haven't really played it since.

insurgency comp mode or low player count koth is what CS should've evolved into
too bad theres only one populated NA server at any given time
