Hi goons, friendly reminder We are doing a 5v5 Goonman Tournament!

Right now, we have 38 people who have signed up, meaning 7 teams with a couple of subs. I'm closing signup at the end of the day tomorrow, will be choosing the captains, and then scheduling the draft with the captains.

I want an AR-15 for t side, give it a tighter spread, less bullets, and less penetration than an ak.

I'd love something like this. Could be to the AK like the A1-s is to the A4. There's a weird russian gun called the AN-94 that's chambered in 5.45x39mm and it also has a unique 2 round burst that would be a really cool addition.

I have a Doom mod that I use that's basically the entire CS 1.6 arsenal and I was wondering where the rocket launcher came from. Completely forgot about Condition Zero: Deleted Scenes (or repressed all memory of it because yeeesh. . .).

EDIT: Guys, Counter-Strike 2: Deleted Scenes - do it. I'd love a (actually good) mindless shooty SP campaign in CS2.

You forgot that first you hire another team to make it over again, and release that at the same time, and make sure everyone knows that the game made by the new guys is the real one.

I was defending A site on Nuke from behind the tanks, I was trying to grenade tetris, and I massively fumbled it and the grenade bounced into squeaky and killed a T I had no idea of, then I shot the T coming from tetris. Gamesense.

You can just buy skins on the community market within Steam or a 3rd party skin marketplace. That's what I've done for 99% of my inventory

I'm not about to pay a single dollar for any skin. I just want to unlock whatever rewards I've earned. Without paying.

The reward is selling the case on the market or waiting until it becomes more valuable. Cases I had earned through play that were about £0.40 when I last played CS:GO were like £6 when I came back to CS2. Opening whatever is inside will be less valuable mostly likely.

Someone close to me has part of his investment portfolio consisting of about $7K worth of Cases that he bought for about 1K back a few years ago or so. I'm not certain on the timeline.

It's really bonkers. He has this one storage thing where each case in there was $80

All the skins that can be free drops are by design very plain, so if that's not an issue you can just rely solely on the weekly drops until you fill out your inventory.

No cases can be unlocked without paying money in some fashion; you either buy the keys to unlock them or you pay extra upfront with souvenirs or the Anubis case.

The thing about CS skins compared to other poo poo is there's always a way to get at least some, if not all, of your money back.

the main thing stopping me from getting free skins is im not ranking up every week to get a case to sell

You’ve “earned” a loot box (which you can sell for actual real human dollars or pay to open) and a cheap skin on top of that. The game costs nothing by the way.

Certain cases eventually drop less frequently or stop dropping altogether. If there’s 10,000 cases on the market and no new ones on the way, that number is only ever going to go down. If the case has something desirable in it, the demand will stay the same while the supply only continues to drop. Prices stonk.

The “Weapon Case” was the OG case when they introduced skins and afaik stopped dropping years ago. One case is currently $100+.

The only cases that never drop any more are the cases from the most recent operations and the old esports cases, so Broken Fang, Shattered Web and Riptide along with the esports 2013/2014 cases. Everything else including the OG cases has a very small chance to drop.
