Counter-Strike: Global Offensive

I went back to source recently. Jesus the theme of that map is weird

Yeah, i didn't get the name, or a feel for where it was based. Had some crazy boost spots.

Personally I miss de_prodigy, but it's probably nostalgia!

I loved prodigy, but it would need some pretty serious balancing to stand up in CS:GO I recon. Like maybe an alternative route in to the vents for terrorists, or something.

Oh yeah! That's one I was missing! I remember liking Prodigy a lot, we had several clanwars there. The open bunker area was my favourite hunting spot in fun.

Also I always liked Piranesi a lot, in fun I was managing to get very good scores.

Agree, Tides is a weird map, but I was liking the layout, I was often able to find good loops to make good scores.

About piranesi you have de_skyline which is imo a decent remake of the original map.

I'm a little confused.

More than a month and still no new operation. Will there be another operation at all? Or wmaybe something different?

Also wondering why it's currently so hard to play community maps: Apparently you can only create a lokal server or connect via direct IP (?)

Some people are suggesting Valve are waiting until after the next major due to the issues brought about last time by adding a new weapon a couple weeks before a tournament.

They've released weapon updates separately before though?

I booted up CS yesterday and I still had the halloween update running. Although I only got points for killing zombie chickens, not each stage. My internet be crazy at the moment...

Hoping sooner rather than later. Halloween update was just a bit annoying IMO. (I miss the ghost chickens )

I've been playing on Faceit to learn different maps. I have a stubborn group of friends that just want to play CS_Italy..I know..so it's refreshing to get to play other maps at a relatively high level without the threat of losing your MM rank.

No updates could be released then, there's almost always a tournament at least 3 months away, making any map pool changes/weapon additions trivial.

But what about your faceit rank? D:

I find faceit completely random, it has very little balance.

Hehe you questioned yesterday my DMG rank. Well, 1 MM game later i lost it

Yeah it's pretty awful to get a balanced game - so many leavers...

I'm using it to learn other competitive maps in a 5 VS 5 setting (or sometimes 5 VS 4, sometimes 6 VS 4 )

I'll never be winning that fiat though

hoping I didn't jinx it!

You'll get it back if you work out what's causing the dip in your skill level. we all have them...

Apparently some Demolition maps are getting updates next patch, I hope I'm not the only one here who totally loves that mode.

Where did you see that? Does that mean, that the update (OP OP OP OP) is near?

Official compatibility old versions are up (along with Dust 1), so maybe even tonight, as the compatibility builds tend to go up same night.

Nice, let's hope

Demolition is seriously underrated, but i don't have much luck playing it as it's quite casual...

"NICE WH"

It doesn't feature the absolutely abysmal gameplay the current version of classic casual does.

Demolition > Classic Casual

mattwood_valve on r/GlobalOffensive replied to a post about demolition, thanking the guy for putting thought into the gamemode. I get the feeling with all of this combined that a demolition update is fairly certain!

Maybe they'll reduce the achievement for cold pizza eater...
