Maps in Counter-Strike: Global Offensive are mostly new, but some of the classics from Counter-Strike and Counter-Strike: Source have been remade for CS: GO . If you’re like many CS: GO players, you’ve played the game for over 100 hours. This is ranking the 10 best Counter-Strike: Global Offensive m
Mirage was added to Counter-Strike: Global Offensive on June 6, 2013. The design bears similarities to a Middle Eastern town, but the items and architecture make it more likely that the town is Moroccan. Planters spawn close to A site, but the defenders pawn even closer. You could choose to go to B, but chances are that you’ll encounter more trouble along the way. Mirage is a CT sided map, but the smart design that includes hidden tunnel passages makes Mirage a fun
Vertigo is a fun map to play, but it seems like skipping Vertigo’s objective to eliminate the other team is easier. In the map Vertigo, one team is tasked with bombing a building that is under construction. The best CS: GO maps place importance on achieving the objective. With there are not many path options, each team usually faces each other head-on in a firefight. Vertigo is a beautiful map that is on top of a rooftop, but it has too many flaws to be considered one of CS: GO’ s most excellent m
Office is a hostage rescue map that is considered great for many reasons. First of all, Office might be the most balanced map in CS: GO , meaning neither attackers nor defenders have an advantage. Eliminating the other team may prove to be difficult because of the map’s various hallways. Best played through competitive mode, Office provides many path options. Securing all hallways leading to hostages is critical for the defending team. Office is exceedingly popular and has been remade four times since the first Counter-Strike g
Proper matchmaking in online games is difficult to do well, put simply, but recent patent filings by Valve give users a peek behind the curtain at the various data miners at work in establishing the Trust Factor in CS:GO . There is quite a bit of information in these patents that range from 2018 to 2020 , and of course, not all of the point below can be said to contribute to an individual’s Trust Factor, though in reality most probably are to some deg
The newest addition to Counter-Strike: Global Offensive’ s lineup of maps is the level “Zoo.” Also added to the list of maps playable in competitive mode is a map called “Workout.” The level Zoo is located in San Fransisco Bay. While walking through the map of Zoo, you may hear a lot of animal noises such as monkeys and birds. Unfortunately, you won’t see those animals since its only fish that can be found in Zoo. The concept of Zoo works well, but the map may need some adjustments before it can be considered a top CS: GO
The first two points quite literally seem to indicate that more money spent in game on cosmetics translating to being more trustworthy. Perhaps there is some truth to this, as spending real money in a game may dissuade a user from cheating and risking the lose of an account, but it still seems odd without confirmation of that i
The Desert Eagle, also mocked as the “Deagle”, is an incredibly cheap pistol that gets the job done. It’s known throughout the game as the great equalizer. The Deagle is one of the very few weapons capable of a one-shot kill, and when used properly, is entirely capable of winning a round on its
Agency is a map that is set in a commercial penthouse at the top of a skyscraper building. Rescuing the hostages successfully is such a good feeling in Agency. Extraction takes place on the helipad where hostages are presumably airlifted away from the map. Of Counter-Strike: Global Offensive’s new maps, Agency stands out for being one of the b
It’ll work if you can’t afford something else, by sheer virtue of being a gun. However, you’re likely better off banking your money and roughing it for one round so you can pick up something a bit more practical during the next

Think of CrossFire as Counter-Strike 2 patch notes but with less emphasis on repetitive maps and technical gameplay, and this time with a lot of emphasis on action and sheer speed . Despite its 2007 release, CrossFire retains quite a large fanbase today, which is testament to its replayable content. Given its age, it evidently has dated graphics. However, the game does shine in terms of character and gun customization, as well as speed-oriented gameplay reminiscent of classic
The sophisticated young women of Senran Kagura already have experiences with guns, too, having cut their teeth on the high-stakes water gun matches of Peach Beach Splash . Really, replace the water and bikinis with metal and tactical vests, and it’s basically the same th
Choosing to go to A or B may make the difference between losing a life and achieving the objective. Since the map Inferno has two spread out bomb sites, players on the defending side are well advised to place half their players at each site. Since planters can stick together and follow the same route, Inferno is deemed to be T sided. The map design of Inferno is not bad, but in practice, the map just misses the mark. Despite its flaws, people will continue to play and enjoy Infe
