First-person shooter, also known as FPS
is the oldest and most developed genre
in the gaming industry
Many monuments of the current game industry
both online and offline
are FPS titles or possess FPS in it
For example Doom, Call of Duty, Battefield of GAME OFFLINE
or Overwatch, PUBG, Rainbow Six Siege
The influence and popularity
of this genre are so incredible that many developers want to jump in
even if it is not their strengths
In this video, meGAME just wanna mention only 1 GAME
Which is the legend of FPS
IT IS COUNTER STRIKE
A name that just needs to be heard to admire is whether a veteran gamer
or just a beginner
knows what game and genre
It is no exaggeration to say that Counter Strike is
an irreplaceable monument of FPS
in general and the gaming industry in particular.
So why would a game, rather a normal game mod,
be loved for so many years?
Let meGame list the reasons that
Counter Strike became a monument of the FPS genre. SO SORRY because of my pronunciation :((
First, let's review a history of evolution and development of CS
The story of an extremely ordinary mod
becomes a world leading Esports game
and becomes a culture of the contemporary gaming community
In 1998, Valve released a game that
completely changed the face of the world gaming industry
and the company itself:
Half Life
At that time, it created a new wave with top notch graphics,
impressive gameplay and mysterious plot
meGame has made a video already, you remember to review it for more.
With the popularity of Half Life getting bigger and bigger
it is obvious that the mod tables for this game also appear
Gamers are also starting to get tired of seeing alien creatures with G - man
so they expect something new
And at that time, Counter Strike appeared
and people immediately fell in love with it
Counter Strike is a mod of Half Life
turning this game from an offline puzzle role-playing game
into an online game of intense brain-fighting between the two sides: Terrorist and CounterTerrorist.
The mission of the player is very simple:
the player splits into two sites
accomplishing the goal set by the game to win
there are many different styles of play but
the most famous and esports is the Bomb mode
If terrorists want to bomb important locations
then Counterterrorism must find a way to defend against these attacks
The idea is as simple as that
but it creates countless tactics, gameplay
and thousands of ways to win.
Many gamers get caught up in Counter Strike immediately
They focused all their time and energy on this game
and turned a normal game mod into
a competition at the highest level
moreover, the father of Counter Strike is also very hard to listen to
and constantly correct through the versions
That makes gamers extremely satisfied and go viral,
the number of Counter Strike players grows rapidly
The unexpected success of Counter Strike could not be compared to Gaben and Valve
Immediately, Valve bought this golden egg
and released it into an independent game
After that, they constantly made upgrades not only in terms of graphics
but also in gameplay and everything else.
In 2011, Counter Strike Global Offensive was born,
marking the greatest FPS game of all time
to appear and received great attention
That's right because that was the biggest change
of the Counter Strike community
when replacing the old graphics background
with new graphics
This change has led many to believe that
CSGO will not last long.
And the result?
After 9 years, CSGO has become
the most well-invested and professional game of the Esports community.
and professional game of the Esports community
Many games are still learning how to improve them
base on Counter Strike's Case study
As for players, may not spike over the years
but CSGO has a stable and loyal number of players.
So what helped CSGO in particular and the Counter Strike series in general
to become a great monument of the FPS genre?
The first thing to mention when it comes to Counter Strike's appeal
is its ease of play
You almost do not need to study anything
just hold the gun and shoot
Well, actually, you should learn how to buy guns to buy a bit of bombs
Buy the gun a then just aim at each other's heads
Right from being designed and launched in Half Life
Counter Strike was easy to play like that
And that trait has followed the entire development history of this shooter
This is clearly shown in the game interface itself
when everything is maximized
If in Call of Duty, or Quake or any other shooting game
the developer is always trying to cram a lot of extra indicators
to make the game unique.
Call of Duty, for example, you will have to control a lot of things.
From scores, kill sequences, learned special skills
military equipment and many other distracting things
in Counter Strike
things are much simpler
A small radio in the corner of the screen
a few numbers to show blood and bullets
that is more than enough for gamers to enjoy Counter Strike.
But why is a simple game like Counter Strike so appealing
The answer comes from that simple simplicity
Because there is no need to think too much about the surroundings
gamers can completely focus on the biggest goal of the game
taking down opponents
And also because it only takes care of goal fulfillment
Counter Strike tactics are born
Tactics, which humans create to accomplish their goals
invisibly create the depth and charm of Counter Strike
If at a low level, people just want to point their guns at each other to see who is bigger
to see who has more skill
then at a professional level, big hands are only a very small part of winning
Moves, squads, positions, and a lot of other small things
will affect the victory
That's why Counter Strike is so attractive. ( Counter SKY sorry viewer == )
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
The tactics of Counter Strike will not be strongly depicted ( COUNTER SKY again huhu my english)
without the balance that the developer brings to the game
From the time it was created
Counter Strike has been carefully cared for and adapted a lot to suit the game industry
to suit the game industry
Many people think that it is obvious for an Esports game,
but remember that not everyone is as successful and stable as CSGO is doing
From an old mod based on the game Half Life
released in 1998
Counter Strike has changed the skin a lot of times
from Source until now is CSGO
Changes are needed as time and technology have evolved over the past
but upgrading is not necessarily the best
Esports, or esports, has strict requirements for gameplay and familiarity
Any change, even the smallest, makes gamers become suck and quit the game
Just look at the way people disgrace Counter Strike Source
It is not just a matter of the FPS genre
but of any professional-oriented game
Take a look at Blizzard's Starcraft 2
when it will forever never regain the old glory of Starcraft
when the transition from the old platform to the new platform
it was not as successful as expectation
also speaking harshly is a pathetic failure of Blizzard
About Startcraft
the old Starcraft was the highest peak of Esports in the world
Especially in Korea, the first country to standardize and professionalize the concept of esports
Starcraft stars are treated as well as A-class stars
It can be said that this game has laid the foundation
for the development of Korean Esports as it is now.
There is an anecdote about their popularity
when the Korean football team participated in the 2002 World Cup Final
in the 2002 World Cup Final
South Korean top Starcraft players were invited to enter the locker room
for encourage the football players.
Gamers that motivate sports king players, sounds ridiculous, right?
sounds ridiculous, right? But it is true.
But since Starcraft 2 came out, the position of this game
has plummeted and almost disappeared from the minds of Esports lovers.
What about CSGO?
Naturally, Gaben and Valve are not gods that can please people
but they know how to absorb and improve themselves very well
From changing the power of guns
to balancing to competition maps
or even adding new weapons to the game, Counter Strike has
been trying hard to bring the best experience
for my gamers, from the faint chicken to the pro
Despite being such a monumental title game of FPS
Counter Strike is still considered to be Valve's step-daughter
Completely different from Dota 2
when it is carried, cared for and has the big annual: The International tournament
Gaben has almost no activity to promote Counter Strike's esports segment
But no one can ignore such an influential game
A series of tournaments continuously throughout
the year helps CSGO's reputation to grow further
With millions of tournaments with hundreds of thousands of followers
Esports organizations are constantly setting up
CSGO teams to compete in the most prestigious tournaments
Even the in-game betting site should make money thanks to Counter Strike
COUNTER BẦU TRỜI
Naturally, the investment cost for a Counter Strike team is not cheap at all
According to an Esports organization once announced
a Dota 2 squad participating in The International worth tens of millions
of dollars only needs about 5 million dollars to maintain
in CSGO pro, an organization takes about ...
10 million dollars to start your adventure
is just an adventure, but there is no guarantee that you can attend the Major somewhere
Undeniably, with so many influences, Counter Strike
has long become a distinct culture
which no other game can do.
This influence is not only in the game world
but also spread to other areas
For example, in the CIS region,
many KFC stores have launched combos
called Counter Strike terms,
with pictures of ammunition guns on it
It can be seen that Counter Strike is not only a game of young people
but has been known to most people.
Needless to say, Counter Strike
has never been forgotten in Vietnam
In any of the school's computer labs, whether they are a good machine
or an old school
there will certainly be two games: Counter Strike and Age of Empires.
These are two students that not only the students love
but it is hard for some IT teachers to resist
No shortage of days during the break
teachers and students call each other Mansion, or Dust 2 extremely excited.
That much, enough for this game to become an unwavering monument in the hearts of gamers
Whether this era is the popularity of Battle Royale with
PUBG or Fortnite
but it's undeniable that Counter Strike still has an extremely strong foothold in the FPS genre
And meGame believes that, no matter how many years pass by,
whenever people mention FPS, people think of Counter Strike
And vice versa, when it comes to Counter Strike
gamers will immediately remember the FPS
