CS went rotten when it was made available in stores.
its a fun game, but the community are by large 248 steps down the evolutionary chain below the stuff that appears under my toenails. there are however at least a few decent ppl playing it.
and you cant argue what CS has done for the FPS community as a whole, how much growth it has caused.
I played it for about 2 weeks then jumped right over to Firearms, a much better mod IMHO, better community.
now when i have time i play bf1942: DC and RS3
