Kotaku - Counter-Strike: Global Offensive Brings Glorious HD Headshots Galore on August 21

Valve has finally said when CS:GO is being released (Aug. 21st) so that means for all you currently playing the beta, your free game is going to end soon and you're going to have to buy the game..
So, question is, will you buy CS:GO when it launches (Priced to be at $15 USD)?
I am 75% addicted to Counterstrike. What about you? :wcc:
If it's gonna be $15, than yes, I'll buy it.

> Trust your technolust
Will buy it regardless of the shitty aiming and recoil. Besides, there's still plenty of room for improvement.
Nope.

I'll get someone to buy it for me.
There's no way I'm paying for that hunk of shit.

I don't understand why everybody hates on the aiming in CSGO. Just because its different, doesn't make it worse. It's miles better than the aiming CSS had, people are just complaining because its different and they'll have to get used to it again.

We've had this debate before and I'm still keeping to my side, the aiming/recoil in CSGO is nowhere near better than CSS. I wouldn't mind if it was different than CSS, but as it stands, you're better off spraying rather than aiming in CSGO which is dumb. They barely even balanced the weapons too, the M4 and AK are still the best.

I'll still buy the game but I'll be much happier if they fix up the recoil/aiming.
You know Bramble, I don't want to be rude to you in any sort of way but you gotta think about what you just said. I mean, you only have about 20 hours on record playing CSS, but of course hours doesn't mean a whole lot as long as the player is good. What I'm trying say though is that people who have played CSS for a couple of years should give people a more exact answer and comparison between CSS and CSGO. In my opinion though, I totally agree with Gatekeeper. Not only does the recoil and aiming suck but it's all about just firing loose hoping for a headshot aiming on people's legs.

I believe the opposite. If somebody has played CSS since 2004, they'll be much less likely to embrace the change than somebody like me who has played it less. It's not because they're more pro and can give an accurate answer, its because they're less willing to throw away the 8 years practice they had on CSS.

If there's a console war between Xbox and PS3 fanboys for example, I think my nan could make a better judgement over which console is better than said fanboys, because she can look at it from an unbiased point of view.

What can I say? It's all about taste and you might be right about that PS3 and Xbox thing but I believe the opposite of what you had in mind about CSGO and that's just how things work if you know what I mean. :)

If you had been practicing eight years on something and lost it all because of some sudden change, would you want it back the way it was?
If it was something I had been doing in real life, then yes, but CSS is a game, and sequels have gotta come out sometime. I hate CoD, but even CoD fans complained when they released MW3 because it was the same as MW2. If they didn't change CS:GO people would complain because it would just be a graphic update of CSS.
New gamemodes come out "Oh that's cool"
new graphics "Oh these rock!"
Something new that makes people do worse "WHY DOES THIS GAME EXIST RAGH VALVE!"

It wouldn't just be a graphic update though, they've remade old maps and even made totally new maps. They added two new gamemodes and are planning on adding more if I'm correct. Also, they added a bunch of weapons. So no, if they changed the recoil back, it wouldn't just be a graphic update.

Also, I'm pretty sure Valve knows the recoil is shit. They have been changing it every update trying to find a perfect balance.
