except the problem with this is that the people on facepunch that do have keys don't play it enough.

I'm trying the best I can to earn some more for you guys

I typed faster than a fast thing, going fast.

The nice thing is that the more you play, the more keys you get so you can give them to friends.

In the last big batch of keys that valve gave out, they gave the top 500 or so most active CS:GO people more keys to give out to friends

Edited:

they should bring back VIP mode for CS:GO. that was fun as fuck

[latin_geek]

nobody ever played VIP tho

It was pretty fun when you had good teams but it was impossible to play on pubs

[Kahgarak]

When exactly will the first survey keys be handed out?

VIP you say? Fucking as_oilrig all day everyday.
Oh the memories from that map.

[Aman VII]

Who else remembers "rats" maps from CSS? You know where you are tiny and the map is someones room or a kitchen or a bathroom. Those were fucking awesome, I remember there was one 24/7 rats maps server I'd play on day and night. Don't know why those maps fell out of favor cause I haven't seen any of them played in years.

[latin_geek]

rats maps = snipers and falling down and dying/jumping on one of those things to bounce up, missing, and falling and dying
also terrible textures

that's all I remember from those

de_rats_kitchen (it had a boat and a grinder and a fridge) for 1.6 was THE SHIT though

As opposed to...What? Selling them for lodsa keys in TF2?

I never played a rats level in CS, but i did play a few in TFC. They were pretty fun, since Soldiers, Heavies and Demomen could turn places like a cabinet into a complete bloodbath because of how small they were. It also helped that you'd respawn as soon as you died, so being reamed as soon as you entered an area wasn't that annoying.

Good times.

I know this sounds stupid, but could someone tell me if they kept the SAS in CS:GO?

[Pandamox]

you can't choose your player model. you just choose the team. dunno if they'll add that later or not

Lol CS is far from realism and it doesn't try to be it. Just an arcade-y competitive shooter

Edited:

On the topic of CS nostalgia glassmaps were fun too. Glasstrap_final specifically, I played so much of that map.

I wish I could spend one night warping back in time and play CS:S in 2005-2006 again. Maybe I'm wrong but it seems back in the day there were a metric fuck ton of custom maps being played. And practically all of them were fun.

2007-8 had some pretty good stuff too, especially if you watched the competitions on (FpsBanana) Gamebanana.

Apparently a full-fledged soundtrack release for CS:GO is still undecided. I'm hoping it goes through.

Seeing as tomorrow marks the end of the first week of the survey, hopefully the keys will be handed out then.

Yeah it's funny with the beta cause there's the small player pool always playing with the same people here and there.

The old style crosshairs are still an option if you don't like the new ones. I stick to the old ones personally.

SO the classic dynamic crosshair is still around? :D

Edited:

Also the reason you guys are able to pull those scores is because valve has been giving keys to noobs and the fact that you're willingly playing against bots.

[TomZa]

Oh boy, if the first keys are handed out tonight.

I'M SO GONNA GET ONE

If you get an invite for either DOTA2 or GO, what happens? Does a message saying something like "CONZAKULATIONS YOU HAVE BEEN SELECTED TO PARTICIPATE IN THE DOTA2/CSGO BETA!" appear, or does it just pop up in your games list without fanfare?

[JoeSkylynx]

Pops up in your gamelist... Or atleast for DOTA 2, thats what it did.
