The biggest games of the last decade are being wiped off the internet for no good reason.

    i mean, it’s not a sequel in the cs2 case, it the sane game, the mechanics, just newer engine, it’s not perfect but it’s just valve being slow lol

      For games with high skill ceilings and delicate mechanics, a new engine is a new game. A new engine can rarely capture the overall feel of the old engine.

            I think community servers are back now. No custom maps or alt play modes yet though.

                Fucking surf man. I have so much nostalgia for CSS it’s unreal. Surf, rat, sncoutknives, deathrun, jail, 24/7 single map 32 player frag fest servers. One of the most underrated GOAT games imo. I know the competitive community shunned it but as a 13 yo kid that game shaped me into a PC gamer for life.

            You can launch csgo still by checking it in the beta options for cs2. Still has community servers

                it’s not planned to be deleted. iirc it’ll just stop receiving support for game coordinator (skins,cases etc.)
