Counter-Strike: Global Offensive

There's ClutchCon next weekend with 16 teams attending - http://www.clutchcon.com/counter-strikeglobal-offensive-1

And then as Puddy mentioned EMS One Katowice starts early March - http://www.hltv.org/news/14036-esl-one-katowice-with-250000

Cbble should really be removed from the or changed more dramatically than it has already.

In comparison overpass is a great map. Really enjoy it.

It might be more enjoyable if the scale wasn't so large. No matter how many times they change it though, that connector area is still a travesty.

I literally didin't watch a single round from MLG, I am le sad

watch the fnatic vs LDLC game on inferno if you get a chance:

I don't play much in the first place so I cant manage watching a whole tournament… but keep posting plz, I managed watching a couple of maps from the tournament NiP won with great celebration from everyone.

North American counter-strike is basically dead in the water. But ethically the waters are clear once again

Well, shit.

Deserved.

oooooooh snaaaaaaaap

What I love about the situation is that they have only barred them from Valve sponsored events, but in doing so have basically made them untouchable.

No one is going to want to team with them because if they're serious about competing, those Valve sponsored events are a target for the team.

ESEA, CEVO and FACEIT have also banned them.

They really didn't think about the impact it would have on their pro career... They can still stream on twitch and be succesful. They could change identity and have a facial surgery will all the money they got from selling skins.

im sure ADHD medicine is already in full use.

A big disappointment what happened with the professional gamers with the using Cheats case, and repeatedly preliminary agreement on sport betting .

It is not a disappointment to me because never really interested me the proffesional gaming world, but for guys who have their idols on different computers, if it is.

why is CS:go so inconsistent when I'm inviting people to play on a localhosted server?

I managed to get 3 people on FMPone's new map by changing to it and then inviting people.

Tried to do the same with a custom map off the workshop but it kicked everyone out when they tried to join

When you are loading up map from the workshop, the local server works different. You have to invite your friends to a lobby first, before you can start the server. People also can't join while the server is running. It's a bit strange.

The better option would to be try and set your own server up. That way whenever you want to try something out, you can make it live with a password.

The locally hosted server as Ex said, is strange. I also find that my screen as host cuts out / goes black when someone joins.

I'll probably still use local for now- all I want to do is check the timings with real people before taking it for mapcore testing (don't want to waste everyone's time with an unrefined idea)
