Is it Asian enough to bring you back into the fold?

Word on the street is that this operation or a variation thereof is already present in the China version of CSGO on Perfect World.

Do people still play this game?

I don't know to be honest. More and more people are bitching about cheaters, all the while the game is maintaining a record high active player base. Maybe things are different in SA.

People will now flock back with the season pass, but I am expecting more cheating incidents in a paid version of the game. There is now a premium paid for queue in the pass, so we will have to see. Lately, I have seen high value and credible accounts occupied by a cheater.

I got the pass a few seconds ago.
 
For those who argue that R230 is too much for the pass, Valve usually cuts the price in half 2/3 into the season, and it is easy to catch up. The only benefit of being an early bird is early skin unlocks which is at times worth a lot more than the season pass on the Steam market, and it is a gamble.

I can't recall when last I played it, I just recall playing it and thinking fok this game is so slow and looks like ass.

Combine that with cheaters, salty opponents/teammates and griefers etc.... just a **** show.

I'll take a look later...I enjoyed Shattered Web early on before it got grind-y.

The new operation is more open-ended, you earn to spend, and week 1 is more expansive than Shattered Web's was structured. I like the new analytics, and as I have said, there is now a new exclusive queue system but it is attached to the operation.

As long as you have people to play with it is fine, but yes, graphically the game is growing stale and recently they have been revamping maps by making it more vibrant. Slow is but a choice, it is all pending on the strats and fluently of the team which is absent for the most part in casual.

This will always be a 'e-sports' game, the design won't change without breaking the leagues. For what it is it will always be, even if there will be a CSGO 2 (/cough Source 2). The dynamic will always stay the same.
 
I'm tempted... But the destiny 2 grind has been real. And I've barely started the new season on that.

Maybe there will be some fun to be had if the weekly missions are not too bad. Danger zone is kak due to long mm wait times, if you lucky enough to find a game.

I don't even know whether CSGO passes is worth it any more unless you want to gamble. I mean, are skins really incentive enough?

I will play Destiny 2 next year, maybe, it is all pending on how much progress I am making with other developments.

They changed how levelling the coin works now so if you want diamond, it's only a hundred stars worth of completed missions (versus completing every mission in Shattered Web).

So no Danger Zone needed, @Cav5034 :thumbsup:
 
Nah I mean cases are easy to get hold of. And selling cheap... Really just gambling on the collection drops. Or spend more money to open the operation cases. Meh
 
I am going to start and make game recordings. Either I am bad, aged like bad red wine, or new to CS players are really good.

There does not seem to be any drops in this operation. You earn stars which are used to acquire operation items.
