Alphonse★ 453 Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 lol I don't mind it going free to play. It just going to suck hearing more fucking kids on the mic Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kaz 2,439 Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 I paid 13 euros for the game years ago and got thousands of hours out of it. Best CS since 1.5. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It just going to suck hearing more fucking kids on the mic Seems like those paid for it will be separated from the Plebs https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2018/12/06/counter-strike-free-with-battle-royale/ Quote Seemingly out of nowhere Valve have announced that the game is free for everyone on Steam, with previous owners being upgraded to ‘Prime’ account status and awarded a “commemorative Loyalty Badge”. Prime players get matched with their own kind, so the influx of new blood shouldn’t disturb the old pros. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

kaz 2,439 Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 Never understood the Prime status. It was released like a year ago? Completely unnecessary feature to get money. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I would never touch CS:GO again if it went F2P without this version of prime status. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

As expected even godtier gameplay like CS can't save this awful genre. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I have no idea what ya mean because Prime did cost ~$13. Now it's free for people that bought GO before the dangerzone update. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Best CS since 1.5. 1.4 was better, 1.5 is trendy and brought little to the table. 1.4 was the biggest update the game ever saw. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
