I play it every now and then...I love how you can just go in for a few rounds and get out...not some hour long RPG game or something!

Unless someone can find me a better looking game with same gameplay, I won't be switching for a while!

I used to play Tactical Ops, but quit when the new patch would only allow ppl who purchased to retail version to play. However, I've always been interested in CS since it is widely considered superior. So I'm probably going to get Condition Zero when it comes out. Anyone have any thoughts about it?

I actually just started playing counter-strike and I think its a great game.

Yeah I still play cs it's a fantastic game

When I'm on my ethernet I play it fairly often, and I consider myself fairly good.

But are there really so many cheaters? Even on the servers that have the anti-cheat tools? I've never been one to call those better than me a cheater, but some of them make you wonder.

I've gotten good to the point where some cheaters I just consider an extremely good player and challenge myself to beat them. But dont think that they still dont piss me off. >:(

One of the things I did hear about CS was the amount of cheating supposedly going on. Are they working to fix it in Condition Zero? Cheating can't be completely stopped, but it can at least be slowed down.

I only play CS in lan, online is just not as fun.

Well, how they explained it is "If you're caught cheating, your wonid will be taken down and instead of being banned from just 1 server, you'll be banned from every server connected to the WONetwork." It's a good thing I dont cheat ^_^;

Cs owns ass.

I play everyday on #1 or #2 24/7 Iceworld, if you filter so it just shows the icewords they are at the top, my name is ALWAYS
-mODEST-MOUSe- Look me up sometime just say you are from tfp :) btw only play on iceworld because that board kicks ass and those servers have anti cheat, i have seen maybe one hacker and he was immediately banned.

I play CS and love it. Ive been using the steam client for 1.6 and I actually like it as a way to play. Sure its buggy, but the geek in me tells me I need to be bleeding edge. But I do really f*ing hate sheilds... anyway, Yeah, its awesome. I'm a LTWFTW about CS.

</strongbad refrence>

I just began again. One thing about online gaming is that I have always wanted to go beyond creating some useless clan of friends. If I'm going to spend my time playing video games, I like the thought of going somewhere with it. I'm just starting to see things like cal-im and such, which I have absolutely no idea about. I'm guessing there are real ladders though which I'd like to look into. I quit Quake 3 because I seriously owned everyone at rail CTF. I would have stuck to it if there were some kind of regulated ladder that I could have followed.
Anyone care to fill me in on what I can do to take part in some kind of ladder clan?
Thanks

i played since beta 1.1 but then last year i got baned for life because i was using the mysterious almighty ??????????????? cheat in my c:\???????????\???????????\??????? directory(actual report from VAC, ie no cheat existed) because of that i was a little pissed to say the least so i switched to enemy territory

I still play... i must say its a bit less entertaining than it used to be back in the old beta days. Take a break from it every once in a while helps keep it fun however hehe

hehe
 

i changed from CS to EQ ... well not sure what is more a waste of time ehhehe

Re: hehe
 

Well, EQ is a waste of time & a waste of money. And time = money. So...EQ I guess.

Just played some scoutzknivez. I need to play more...or not at all...

help, i dusted off my Halflife CD, installed the update,downloaded CS 1.5, and when i try to enter any game i get

"Host_init:Couldn't load gfx/palette.imp"

My advice for issues like that is usually to reinstall Half-Life. Sorry I can't get any better technical advice then that.:)

I still play CS. Here in Simi a bunch of people from our school last year play, we have a clan and server. Playing in multiple leagues at the moment (Cal-O and some OGL one) which is extremely fun, perhaps the most fun I've had with CS. Having defined strategies for each map, instead of playing more Deathmatch style in public games, is a unique and fun experience.

I started at 1.3. I still play off and on, last night I download Natural Selection. My gawd is it awesome. You have to read the manual to be able to play it and not get screamed at by 13 year olds. I really recomend playing it between Cs. It's highly addicting

Just started playing last year, but me and my buddies are hooked. We play it damn near every night.

NOT only do i still play CS, i still play SC!!! (starcraft)
