i watch this game on twitch, i dont understand why its so popular?
 
Just a game that has withstood the test of time. I ran a CS clan back in the day and we had ppl that could actually make custom things that pertained to the game. Was fun.

All in the addiction,lol
 
It's probably the most solid and stable FPS games out there. Completely based on skill and strategy - it's not your typical run-and-gun like CoD or Battlefield.

CS was the most popular game before the release of any other MOBA like Dota 1.

CS:Go is just an improve version of the previous 1 so many people already played the game before tried and play it again with this new one.
 
It's probably because it's one of, if not the only one, FPS game that's truly competitive. Battlefield? Meh. COD? God no.

Rest assured that you're going to get your *** handed to you and rage a lot within the first couple of months. THEN and only then (personally it took me longer than 2 months) it'll become actually fun to play, especially with a good team.

Because very funny game)))
 
I've put 600 hours so far of my life into this game. Why i play it is because it is very competitive, and it can lead onto so much more when you reach the highest rank. I'm currently MG2, and a few ranks away from Global elite which is about 1% of the CSGO community.
 
Ok let me sum up why CSGO is so popular.. which is OP's question.

CS:GO is continously being updated and made better with different operations which allows you collect coins.

CS:GO has a competitive mode where you can rank up to different levels which is addictive in itself because you really want to rank up to the highest rank.

CS:GO has weapon skins and knife skins which you can purchase and is really expensive.

CS:GO has external websites not affiliated with CS:GO developers nor Valve Software in which you can 'BET' yes I said Bet your skins on Pro Competitive matches.

Counter:Strike was first released back in 1999 and ever since have stuck to the same game concept and is still growing strong 16 years later.. NO FPS GAME has EVER had a solid player base after that time and Counter Strike is still growing as we speak.

CS:GO is the most live streamed game on Twitch which brings more people to the table.

Counter Strike is one of the best game series ever made without a doubt.
 
It actually takes skill to kill people unlike COD and I play it for skins CS:Gamble is what it has become for me, very addicting lol :P

Maybe because of cs 1.6, every pro player had no chance to stay at cs 1.6, and had to start playing CS:GO
 
For me:
The stable servers ( times I hated Valve for their servers = 0 times I hated riot for their servers = over 9000 )
The game, I love climbing ranks and feeling the stress when it's 14-14.
It's the only game that can keep me busy because I quit games like gta after like a day since I already got everything and you can play cs:go forever.
 
Watch this hilarious 'Honest trailer' of counterstrike :D The global weapon unboxing simulator game!

Because it is probably the only shooter atm that requires some sort of skill.
And it's counter strike.... So that's why.
But CSGO wasn't that popular in the beginning, it's mostly because what pro's are playing, people are playing.

For me it's the best game after atm. I always played COD, now i only play CS:GO ;P
 
Not hard to play, entertaining. More fun to play with friends than dota/lol and others. I dunno what else do you need. A big minus are cheaters and I don't think they'll fix it soon.
 
Besides; even with raging russians. CS:GO would always have a better community then League of Legends. Period.
 
reasons to play:
1. its fun
2. russians
3. have more fun
4. derank
 
The graphics aren't as great as a lot of games, but the mechanics that are required are brilliant. It's not a game that anyone can just pick up and be good at really, that's why it appeals to me.
 
Domination, fun, skill development, socialization, good time with friends, cs 1.6 fanbase, skin casino, many mods, community workshop, pro gaming...
Options are endless.
 
Its popular because its kinda "realistic" (Not really tho). Its based on skill, and you will have to play a lot to get better. Same maps but tons of different games you can get with those maps . And its cheap.
