Counter-Strike: Global Offensive is a game that is simple: put your crosshair on an enemy and click your left mouse button. What really makes this game stand out is the massive amounts of strategy and elements at play in every round. You have a choice of maps, weapons, grenades, strats, and not to mention a economy built on virtual skins.

What really makes this game sort of disappointing is the COMPETITIVE BANS and the infamous, "silver hell". If you leave are considered a negative force lagging your team behind, then the client automatically bans you for a maximum of 7 days, leaving you unable to play competitive CS for that long. The worse part of this is the things that you can be banned for. Say your internet unexpectantly shuts down, or steam is overloaded by DDOSes, etc. Whatever the case, if you do not reconnect within 3 MINUTES, then you can't play CS for a week. As for silver hell, well, if you're stuck in the silver rank without any friends to play with you, you are ♥♥♥♥♥♥. Silvers are the lowest ranked players, (mostly players from CoD) and you will be matched with smurfs (Really really good people), n00bs, scrubs, scrublords, 9 year old kids, russians, and of course the occasional troll.

And with the economy on virtual skins: ♥♥♥♥ you gaben. Spent 50 dollars on keys, all blue items worth .10 cents each.
The CS community is notorious for being a huge mess of ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ but its only them that stick out. You do have many, many great people that you will meet once you pass "silver hell". How do you pass silver hell? SMOKE WEED EVERDAY! DORITOS AND MOUNTAIN DEW. ALL DAY EVERYDAY.

Solid Snake out.
