is cs 1.6 dead?

[NoasArcAngel]

well following the recent events and people who keep up with them. Cs 1.6 has now been officially removed from Intel Extreme Masters and World Cyber Games. What do you guys think about this ?

[kisame]

Awesome multiplayer game.Have lots of fun playing it even now.It will continue to thrive in local competitions,IMHO.

[maddy1205]

I still play cs1.6 with friends..but prefer cs source..

[aaruni]

CS 1.6 is my favorite game so far....

[sumonpathak]

Should be dead by now....
the old horse is beaten too far...

[SunE]

Dead? I just played the damn thing for the past couple hours!! Getting removed from some tournaments(doesn't matter how prestigious) doesn't mean the end of something. Edison was expelled from school yet we have the light bulb.

P.S. :- I don't know if my example made any sense or not. I just wanted to write it
Oh and if any of you guys are looking for some assault fun then head here 74.91.121.226:27015

[aaruni]

can you tell me what to do with the IP adress? Have been playing CS with Z-bot. (and have been playing CSCZ)

[DeSmOnD dAvId]

Will thrive for sometime. But indeed it needs to be retired.

But why

[SunE]

It's CS 1.6 IP not CZ. Just open up the game consol by pressing tilde(`). Type connect <ip address> like "connect 74.91.121.226:27015" or open up the multiplayer/find servers options from main menu and in that go to favorites tab. Click on add new server and paste the ip address.

But why

Yeah dude why? CS 1.6 ne tumhara kya bigada hai ??

[aaruni]

Strikethrough = it doesn't??? O.o

[101gamzer]

It was a Game of the Era everyone had their first FPS experience in this Awesome game another best thing of this game is it would work in any damn computer no matter if its 10 or 15 year old

[RON28]

lol, i played many lan events, and i guarantee you, CS 1.6 will atleast take 10 years to retire from now on,
next generation will play GLOBAL OFFENSIVE for 15 years, at that time we will all be like old school players, don't worry, keep up the spirits and play the world's NO.1 multiplayer game

[aaruni]

@101gamzer:True to that, but my question remains unanswered. So i can't join that game because my copy is pirated?

[SunE]

Strikethrough = it doesn't??? O.o

We CS 1.6 players don't use the word pirated. We prefer the more conventional non-steam Yes I use a downloaded from torrent copy of even this cheap-ass game. Why? Steam doesn't allow Indian users to play outside India which for me is a major deal-breaker as most of the times I'm on US servers.

[aaruni]

K. will try for sure!!!!

[d6bmg]

Its time to move on I guess.

Well i used to play on american steam servers

[avinandan012]

dead no man.

maybe in next 10 yrs

btw! global offensive experience is not good compare to cs 1.6.

if valve want CS:GO to be popular they need to act on suggestions

[Rishi.]

I still play the game for around 5-6 hours every weekend.However , I do it only at public servers.

So ,Playing against so many guys with hacks and cheats made me a Pro.

[Quanta]

Never man. CS will rule our TIME throughout college.

Can you play CS 1.6 on Windows 7? It says fatal error - less than 15 mb memory avilalbe....

Works fine for me. Try running in compatibility mode for XP SP3.

[Nerevarine]

Call me a noob or whatever you want, I want this game to be dead.. Cant they just replace this with CSS atleast.. I know many pros and "wanna be" pros love this game for a number of reasons ( i am going to list none), but come-on, its a ten year old game..it surely needs a successor..

[avinandan012]

^ got owned ??

Never happened to me.

[Nerevarine]

^ got owned ??

why do you say that ? I play CSS regularly, sure I get owned a lot but I know how to pwn .. I dont play CS1.6, the game is too old for my taste

Just look at the bullet-spread in CS 1.6 for instance.. and look at the kind of bullet-spread you get in Bf3 or even COD..


I hope someone will understand what i mean to say..

[Rishi.]

The most important reason why CS1.6 is still ruling the College and Student life : System requirements are considerably low, "almost" every PC built after 2000 can run this.
Not everyone(student) can afford likes of Nvidia GPUs and Dual-core/Quad core CPU , which are the basic requirements of new games.

Average Laptops are equipped with low-end stuffs,and most of college users have lappies.

IMO, it won't dissapear so easily .However the increase in Touchscreen gaming tablets and portable gaming devices are threating entry of newbies in CS.

I had the same problem, Just do as morpheus instructed
i.e. 1.Right click on the shortcut
2. Click on properties
3. Compatibility Tab
4. Check the "Run this game in compatibility mode for"
and Enjoy

[aaruni]

hmmm.... will try that the next time i install it on 7.... currently playing from xp
