So then what is the point of the workshop showing me these items? To vote them up? Might as well toss them under "Steam Greenlight" than the Workshop for me to vote on while letting the Workshop be the "easy and free modding" that it was advertised to be.
it will go away like Operation Payback did and be replaced with a new set of community maps
Hope they find a way to keep cache though

Jank is dead. We don't talk about who's to blame.
And the Workshop in Valve games has always just been an integrated system of voting for cosmetic items and skins people like. And then Valve completely ignored them and put in random stuff that was nowhere near the "Top-rated All-Time" anyway.
I bought CS:GO at launch and never gave it a true honest chance. It felt like a even more wonky Counter Strike Source and a far cry from the good old days from CS 1.6
I've been recently playing (and apparently having to relearn all my shooting habits) and god, so much fun.
I miss playing Counter Strike, I really think it supplants Source and goes toe to toe with 1.6
Love what Valve is doing with the esports part of this game. They are taking a queue of what they are doing right with DOTA2 and bringing it here
Also, is there a comparable site like this:
http://twowordbird.com/articles/csgo-recoil-mechanics/
but for CS 1.6?
So I can compare both?
Because I feel I can't hit shit with AK-47 compared to the past, and I feel I'm 100% accurate with the M4A1

Yeah dude, I played a game today and got matched with 4 guys queuing together... they all had the rarest skins from the Winter cases... Redline AWPs, Asimov M4's, X-Ray M4, etc...
I'm almost certain they bought them outright on the market.

Oh, I agree, completely. GO is much better than 1.6.
its funny because in Dota I only see a couple of people with a HUD/courier/announcers and almost no one has sets, just random items that are probably drops.

Glad you're enjoying the game.
Nope. GO is only better than 1.6, not much better. Assuming you're talking about gameplay, if you mean the overall package, then yes, muchh better could be aplicable but waaaaaaay better would be correct.
Gameplay is a little better since it's way more balanced than AK47/M4A1/Deagle
Overall package is a fucking steamroll
I hate the AWP in GO, the incaccuracy exists even after stopping.
The AWP becomes accurate only after stopping for 1 full second.

Not sure about that. It's pretty ridiculously easy to use considering the size of the models in game.

That's the thing I love the most. Just make the p90 less accurate to use while running (or change it completely to match an eco weapon, damage/rewards/price) and nerf the autosniper... and we can have a really well balanced game.
I don't know about that... you actually need skill/reflex for the AWP, the fact that most players that know how to use it have great positioning may give the weapon a OP feeling, I somewhat agree about the P90 though.
That's not quite true, but if it was that would be a good thing. Would add some much needed risk to that one shot cannon.
And yeah the p90 is the real problem in this game. That CoD gun needs to be nerfed into oblivion. Its worse than the autosnipers imo.

I was talking about the autosniper, not the awp (which is fine by me). Autosnipers needs to be at least 3 body shots for a kill. Or 6-7 magazine size with slightly higher recoil reset between shots.
Yeah. I bought another copy to play with friends and on medium-low levels it's fucking abused. But the gun is kinda useless at higher ranks at the moment: too expensive for a 2nd round buy, no money bonus for kills, not quite good as a rifle and 100
$ more than a famas. Other than running and spraying like a madman, there's really no point in it.
I don't really think lowering the accuracy on the gun while moving is the way to go. I would love to see it completely reworked to be a excellent smg like the bizon with a proper use during specifics rounds in the match.
At higher levels (even mid-high) the p90 only works as an anti-eco solution. If you buy a p90 on a buy round, prepare to be steam rolled.
And as a big 1.6 player - I think GO is better in almost every way except for the fact that the maps are too cluttered and grimdark.
Do people seriously miss wall banging, ineffective smokes, way-too-effective flashbangs etc.?

I miss gun registration and this game not feeling like it's in favour of those peaking.
P90 is a bigger problem than that. I can do quick long-range bursts with it and get headshots just as easily as I can with an AK. It's unbelievable at close range, where it can easily mow down an entire team. It shoots too fast, and has the second longest clip in the game. It is OP, even at higher levels. Sure it's less effective then, but the fact that people can get all the way to eagle rolling p90 as their primary is pretty telling.
As for the maps - they have updated a number of them to make them a bit more 'readable' and less cluttered. Hopefully they continue that. I definitely agree with you on nades though. Don't miss that at all.

P90s on nuke are ridiculous.
just make everyone midgets.

CS gun registration never made sense to me in any version of the game, but I didn't play 1.6 online.
I'm not good enough to complain about gun balance. I just hate being killed by running headshots.

So the game refuses to load between maps now. I can launch the game & load the map that is currently playing but then when the map switches it just hangs at loading forever. This is basically making the game unplayable as I have to relaunch the game after every single map. Anyone have any advice on how to fix this?
Try verifying the cache
Already done. Trying a fresh install now.
EDIT: Still doing it after a reinstall. Think Valve will issue a refund of my $4? Not really happy about a purchase of a game that becomes totally broken after a few days playing it.
Some things to try. Delete the video config file, restart the game.
Try running full-screen windowed.
Also, try disabling multicore rendering to see if it fixes anything.
I had a few issues with it but fiddling with these things seemed to solve them for me.

Arms Race is a lot of fun; I just wish there were more than three maps to play.

Let's discuss crosshairs.
First, for those of you who didn't know, there's an awesome website called CS:GO Crosshair Generator where you can visually customize your crosshair and it will give you the code to put in your autoexec.cfg.
There's also a good reddit thread with people sharing their crosshair configs.
I use a small-ish sized cyan crosshair with a dot in the middle. I'm at work so I can't post a screenshot, but it looks kinda like this:
But smaller and without the black outline.

cool, I didn't know about this.
I'll try to play every once and a while. This game ruins my life though, so I have to watch out.

Huh? Default crosshair moves too much and is a distraction. Changing the type and color is definitely not placebo. Whwtever makes it more visible.

Only the new ones. Bravo crates used to be worth 60 cents and now they're down to 12.
I just do classic static and change the color depending on the map. I'm sure there are settings that help though, like changing the gap so your crosshair doesn't obscure where you're aiming.
