Hi everyone,

I wanted to start a discussion about Counter-Strike 1.6 and its lasting appeal. Despite the rise of modern shooters with advanced graphics and mechanics, many players still return to CS 1.6 for its simplicity, balance, and skill-based gameplay.

Do you think the classic movement, recoil control, and map design (like Dust2 and Inferno) make it superior to newer titles, or is nostalgia the main reason people stick with it? Are community servers and mods enough to keep it alive today?

I’d love to hear your experiences, opinions, and whether you still actively play this timeless FPS classic.
