Counter Strike Vs Cod

[KingKeith55]

COD is a fish, Counter Strike is a competitive FPS.

Cs is much more skill based

Cod is.... Well.... The same its been for 4 years. Except the fish AI.

I need to settle an argument. CS VS COD?

 

I say CS is better, he says Cod is better.

 

CS has been around for ages. There's no fucking contest here.

Counter-Strike is only re-released 2 times(Source and GO) for good reasons(ok maybe not so much for CSGO) while call of duty is same shit(all $60 new) for way too many.

CoD USED (Up until MW2) to be good. Now CS simply dominates CoD in any way possible

(To note that MW2 and back are kinda dead.)

I find them quite different, they at some part are the same but they still feel plenty of different.

Also, frankly, I find Infinity Wards' CoDs have been lackluster ever since MW2, meanwhile Black Ops II was the best entry so far, they changed things up so much, especially in Single Player, then Ghost came and kinda ruined everything.

 

Anyway, on the topic.

Pace-wise: CS is faster than CoD

Gunplay-wise: CS is faster than CoD, also a bit harder.

Mechanics-wise: CS is geared more about the Classic run-and-gun, CoD is more about customization until it fits you, there's only "Choose a gun" in CS, but in CoD, it's "Choose a gun with stuffs you like" and other mechanics. Overall, CoD has more complicated mechanics than CS.

Which one? I'd say both, I've enjoyed both, and they both feel different to me. That's just my personal opinion on the games.

I've never been able to get the shooting mechanics of CS and TF, they're weird... I'm not a fan of CS either, CoD it is.

Would have to say you're wrong both times there.

I prefer CSGO right now for the higher skill ceiling, lower price (although hackers/smurfs). Both communities are pretty bad.

 

^^ CoD is based on Run-and-Gun. In CS you need to stop jumping or stand fairly still to be accurate. The play is more positional and requires more teamwork. It's not individualistic run-around-the-map and shoot everything that moves.

By faster, I was talking about how fast one needs to think and react while playing, not the kind of mindless running around, I wouldn't want to consider using brawn over brain fast-paced, it's kind of unfair for CS when you need to consider more things than "Aim down the sight" to get kills. But of course, my apology, I've misused the term instead of the way it's normally used.

Yeah I get what you mean now :-)

Thanks for understanding

The older CoDs were great, and some of the newer ones are good, too. That doesn't mean I like them better than good ol' CS:S and CS:GO.

[Blue fellow]

Here's the thing, CS is ONLY multiplayer where as CoD is Single, Co-op, and Multiplayer. I like CS for multiplayer and CoD 2 Big Red One for single player.

 

There was that one Counter-Strike a decade ago that did its thing.

[Quick-]

I prefer CS:GO for the more competitive scene.

But I prefer playing casual CoD with friends sitting on the couch.

Two completely different types of games.

 

Also, when I play CS:GO I get pooped on, so sometimes playing CoD helps raise my self esteem.   :lol:
