What first started as a Half life mod became one of the most played games on steam...shows how you can really go from nothing to something

Pros
-Recoil
-Balanced maps (well most at least)
-Competitive Community
-You can run a game even with a crappy computer
-With the VAC system, Hackers get what they deserve
-Skill is required
-Community mods
-A special gun for everyone
-Footsteps
-Strategic in ways such as using flashes and smokes
-Easy to play and get into

Neutral
-Skins, many people will say how skins don't matter and they are 'opinional' but personally who would want to play with default skins, no one would use stock skins so Valve encourages people to 'buy' keys and gamble away their skins in uncasing and bets. I honestly don't know if this is a con or not since Valve does encourage people to put more money into skins than the game itself.

Cons
-Hackers
-Smurfs
-People can be salty
-Debatable if some guns are OP

Overall, the game is a fun game and worth your money although if I recommend it, you will probably get involved the gambling scheme Valve proposed. As most people say to me "Skins are optional, you don't need them to play the game", well sir, would you enjoy playing the game knowing everyone has better skins than you?
