MacWorld: If you have never played Counter-Strike, the first time you land in the map Dust will be like a strange nightmare. You will be confused as to why there’s a supermarket for guns available to you when you first start. You’ll be unsure as to why everyone on your team is holding a grenade and running towards your opponents like explosive lemmings.

We know what most of you will say – it’s not! Some will say it’s trying too hard and some will say it is perfect.
I keep jumping back into this.
The sheer number of player numbers, decades after release of the original CS is astounding. Its always over half a million!
The gunplay is on another level.
I am a big fan of the gunplay in this as well - creating that fairly easy to pick up but very hard to master element I look for in games
If you love shooters like CS GO, you must look into Rainbow Six Siege, more intelligent, squad based and tactical, with every choice having consequences - its really an FPS Chess game..
@SolidStoner
Playing Siege makes me ask one question - if I'm going to play a game of this style, why not play the best one: Counter-Strike?
While it's a great option for console only people, if you are already a CS player, there's no reason to take a step down. The microtransaction-encouraging progression alone takes it down a notch (locking powerful characters behind extremely high credit requirements).
I just couldn't get into it. I've tried so many times but I just suck at FPS games haha.
That said I do enjoy watching it pros play it from time to time.

It oddly says a fair amount about the current state of Counter-Strike, a series once treasured as the retreat from the gimmicks of main stream multiplayer.''
