What I dislike about Counter Strike is...

[CHR15T05]

Do yourself a huge favour and try Day of Defeat, it's bundled with Steam. Seriously, seriously, check it out, I can't stand Counter-Strike for the same reasons you've posted, but DoD gets around those problems rather well. It's a team-based WWII mod, the best one out there if you ask me. It's good in every way CS is bad.

Just double click on the grayed out "Day of Defeat" field in your Steam Games list, it'll download it for you in a matter of minutes.

Also, check this out. It's a n00b's guide to Counter-Strike, absolutely hilarious. !Random use of strong language warning! ~ http://www.somethingawful.com/articles.php?a=395

NOW THAT..... was so funny i just had to LOL (and not just type it).
U don;t know how many people I need to email that link to.

I've quit playing CS.
Well mainly I felt God saying to me I must leave the game.

The things is the people that play this game at our university are extremely rude ont he server and most of them are on a downward slope of there life wasting away the course and so on.

Mostly the game had a very addicting affect on me.
I still think CS is a great game but the people of this world just spoils it!

please note I'm not saying you should quit playing! I'm saying God told me to stop playing. And yes it did have a marvelous possitive effect on my life to stop playing.

congratulations, I know that is very hard to do, as I have had to do that myself once or twice.
