its an opinion thing.
Also the fact that MLG carried shadowrun is proving my point, MLG hasn't carried a good game since melee/halo2 days.
Agreed about it being an opinion. Diff'rent strokes, as they say.

Fun fact though, MLG carried Gears of War also :p

I do agree that the melee/h2 days were the glory days, but Shadowrun is still pretty boss.

yeah but they dropped gears 1 for gears 2, So they counter-acted their first good decision in a while with a terrible one.

Second tech wasn't THAT impressive, because it required less reaction time.

First one was beast, though.

"Good" and "terrible" are really subjective. Clearly their goal is to make monies, so their decisions are working.

If they wanted only the most competitive games, it'd be Halo: CE, Melee, Shadowrun, and WoW.

seriously after 60 pvp wow lost all competitive value, aka once resilience came into play. AB used to be crack...

edit: As falcon barrel roll into nairs for optimal lazer dodging / combo starting potentiality

second edit: jesus left out counterstrike 1.5 and starcraft

WoW's competitive game is just a race to find which team structure has the easiest face roll after each major patch.
truth

**** this thread gets derailed easily.

The Thought of Competitive WoW has always made me lulz.

This is the part where I say something to focus us back to falcon, but idk what to say....

Falcon sux

Jona MM.

edit

**** yeah dippin dots CS 1.5

I used to be the **** at CS, was on a pro team and everything, but i was like 15 so my parents wouldn't let me travel.

1.6 was fine, but i was no 1.5.

SC is good, but it never motivated me to be good at it. I had far more fun play UseMapSettings games.

cs 1.3 / 1.5 are great versions

1.6 is still pretty good but there are some not as good stuff

like scout not being 100% accurate like previous versions (always very slightly off in 1.6)

i wasn't old / serious enough to know the specifics of 1.3, but a few main reasons i prefer 1.5 over 1.6 are...

1. weapon switch between AWP and insert desired pistol (1.5 had more utility in this respect), nothing like quickscoping then immediately switching to a deagle for a few shots then back to the awp for another immediate quick scope.
2. knife headshots don't require a sudden jerk of the mouse as the stab animation begins in 1.5
3. more walling spots in many default levels, de_nuke is probably the only exception to this

I do enjoy the recoil system in 1.6 though, mostly because i'm more comfortable with it than any other.

And i miss getting struck by lightning on aztec, pretty sure that was pre-1.5 though

looking back on the list it's really a bunch of small things, competitively there isn't much difference between 1.5 and 1.6(money strats with famas/galil are one), the first listed reason is the most noticeable, but the nostalgia will always be with 1.5, when the scene in general was more retro. Servers weren't full of thousands of tiny little mods and sound files.

oh and 1337 krew looked cooler in 1.5

also pocky, i believe you live in Cali, which i'm led to believe had a much better LAN scene than columbus, ohio, whose was almost nonexistent in the early days, so im interested in hearing your take on everything.


You guys wanna start a 1.6 smashboards CS Cal team? >_> dibs on president

Scar, Many of my friends are wondering, Who can you Sacred Combo on easier?
Jiggz or Kirby?
Or are both of them impossible...

i lived in plano, texas back when i played cs

pretty ****

point is if you liked all the slightly broken stuff in 1.5 (quickscoping, quickswitching, all that), then you'd probably like the other broken stuff in 1.3 (accuracy while jumping, running around while planting the bomb, and BUNNY HOPPING)
