About

Counter-Strike is a multiplayer phenomenon in its simplicity. No complicated narratives to explain the source of the conflict, no futuristic and alien threats, but counter-terrorists against terrorists. Arena shooter at its core, CS:GO provides you with various methods of disposing enemies and reliant on cooperation within the team. During the round of the classical clash mode, you will gradually receive currency to purchase different equipment. Each player can carry a primary weapon, secondary pistol, knife and a set of grenades, which all can change the battle if wielded by the skilled player.
Objectives are clear and vary from map to map, from game mode to game mode. Stop the terrorists from planting explosives, stop the counter-terrorist from retrieving the hostages, kill everyone who isn’t you and just perform the best with.
CS:GO is one of the major cybersport discipline, which makes playing it more exciting to some players. Aside from purchasing the game, CS:GO is infamous for its loot case system, that requires players to purchase keys, in order to open said cases. Customization items consist of weapon skins, weapon stickers, and sprays that do not affect gameplay and have purely visual value to the player.

"CS:GO" is an excellent game that will teach you how to work as a team, give you literally thousands of hours of gameplay and really cool people to play with. It has the impecable gameplay and design of CS 1.6 and takes it to another level with a better engine and improved visuals. The gameplay of "Counter Strike" is unique, it's full adrenaline, tense moments and euphoria when you win a close game or a key round. This game is a MUST have, now that it is free to play theres no excuse to try such a wonderful game. CS:GO is THE competitive multiplayer FPS game, even in 2021!

Best FPS competitive shooter in modern esports history. Prove me wrong. 
Started as Silver 3, solo queued to Global Elite, ended the game as Legendary Eagle Master. Thousands of hours spent on this game. I miss it every day.

Counter-Strike: Global Offensive is the definition of a proper first person shooter. Easy to learn, practically impossible to master. The closest anyone has ever come to mastering the game is Astralis & even then they could not win every single competition, only the majors. When I want to play a great shooter, I don't think twice, I just open CS:GO, it's that simple. This franchise made the AWP a household name & for good reason. The only thing this game is missing is the Arctic Avengers & Crackhouse on official servers.

why would you even bother playing a shooter? 3/10. 1% on rotten tomatoes.
