CSS is so bad compared to 1.6
The skill ceiling in Counter-Strike: Source is much lower than 1.6. For example:
  • Wallbanging is severely nerfed so you aren't rewarded for your game sense by killing an enemy through thick walls

  • Bigger hitboxes than 1.6

  • Movement is much more restricted like there's no more duck jump, russian walking

  • AWP quickscoping is not as accurate as 1.6

  • Stupid landing accuracy penalties

  • No more ammo buying so less thinking required about managing your economy

  • Stupid amounts of fog on de_dust2

  • The amazing headshot animation where the enemy flies back with thier arms raised is removed

  • Tagging is reduced by a lot so people can just run back into cover with hardly any slowdown.

  • Cluttered maps like the stupid barrels on dust2 that block movement, narrower hallways (e.g. inferno apartments). Ambient sounds can't be disabled as well due to it being a sv_cheats 1 command so you can't concentrate fully on footsteps.
CSS is a dumbed down, casualised CS compared to 1.6.

1 when did spraying at wall take skill?
2 Go play GO that games hitboxes are huge compared to this game.
3Duck jump and bhoping is still possible.
4 Inb4 talks about the awp and quickscoping
5 i get this one
6 Why did they even remove this?
7 what fog? That means your computer sucks if you can't run this game at max render distance
8 Cosmetic
9I agree.

So wallbanging like this takes no skill according to you?

GO's hitboxes are smaller than Source.....proof: http://blog.counter-strike.net/index.php/2012/03/1838/

Anyway, CSS hitboxes are so much bigger than 1.6 aim is not as important so noobifying the game

By 1.6 duck jump I mean th little hop you do when you press crouch and release it before your view fully lowers. CSS does not have this amongst other features like russian walking, less air acceleration thus showing it has rubbish movement.

AWP in CSS has stupid quickscope accuracy penaltiy which means its not instanly accurate when you scope in, why did Valve do this? Bad game.

You don't know what fog is? It's got nothing to do with a bad PC or render distance. You can't disable or modify fog in any way because its sv_cheats 1 protected. It lowers visibility for no reason, it's a stupid design choice

Default fog: http://cloud-4.steamusercontent.com/ugc/709651487059484901/05FBB027EF2238D220AB0F2C107032E94D601DDE/

No fog: http://cloud-4.steamusercontent.com/ugc/709651487059485108/708B6FAB14F012251BDFABDD5D73AE1354A14EA3/

Also don't forget about the cluttered maps like the stupid barrels on dust2 that block movement. Ambient sounds can't be disabled as well due to it being a sv_cheats 1 command so you can't concentrate fully on footsteps. Whereas in 1.6 you can stop all ambient sounds with stopsound.

CSS is a nooby baby first CS game thats only worthy of a 4/10. It such a bad CS game.

c.s 1.6 is the worst of counter strike
1.3 was the best.
1.6 looks casual to 1.3's all skill no luck based gameplay.
1.6 is the reason i stopped playing the old mod and started to play TFC which in hindsight was 20X better.

I sincerely doubt it. I prefer 1.6 to the rest of the franchise and consider GO to be a piece of ♥♥♥♥ (especially with it being a paid game full of microtransactions) that shouldn't exist, but 1.6 fanboys generally aren't THIS stupid. In fact, it's usually the other way around-- GO fanboys going back to the forums of 1.6 just to rant about "it's a ♥♥♥♥ game" for no reason.

Either way, OP, you're ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ stupid. Go back to GO, nobody wants you here.

Er what? "GO fanboy"? I don't even like GO as well...

It's stupid to criticize a game now?
