It's early 2014. You just came home from high school, turned on your PC and went on CSGOLounge. You see that there are 5 matches of Tier1 teams playing faceit spring 2014 league, fighting for points - they need them to advance to LAN finals. You turn on twitch, where you hear Bardolph and DDK casting... This is your everyday. Life's good.
Honestly counter strike never felt the same once they removed csgolounge... The fun I've had while hanging out on teamspeak with my friends watching the games and spamming "thank you for skin delivery" when you won something... bro those were the times
@@rafaellllllllllllllllllll For sure, but it'll be as great as the souvenir of csgo! I believe CS2 as just a cold start because of the world we live in. But the game will become a masterpiece just as csgo and source were.
We will but it will never feel the same way because as we go further into esports it becomes more and more professional and the "unprofessionalism" imo is what makes it feel really special. I think CSGO had the best balance of "unprofessionalism" and professionalism, also the personalities that cs 1.6/early CSGO nurtured because of small LANs where people had to play in order to get to the big boy tournaments were a crucial part too imo. Right now you have a fuckton of online tournaments with 50-100k prize pools(sometimes even 500k) and FPL and those people dont have to go out "into the real world" which doesnt test their character as much and doesnt build the personality.
It’s 2014. You open up CSGO. You see that there is a new case. You don’t have money to buy and open a new case. You beg your dad to give you some money so you can open at least 1 case. Your father gives you a strict condition. For exchange of money, you’ll have to get A+ in all subjects. You agree. You open the case. You get a covert rifle. The design looks cool. You play with it all day. Then suddenly next day something happens to your computer. Your parents don’t have enough money to fix it. You stop playing CSGO. Then you have the obligation to get A+ in all your classes. So you study hard. You forget about gaming. You study day and night. You get A+ in all classes. You forget about gaming. You forget about CSGO. You forget about that nice cool skin that you unlocked. You make new friends that summer. You hangout with them. You play soccer with them. Time flies by. Your parents don’t have the money to fix the computer. But you don’t care. None of your friends game, so you give up on the computer. Fast forward to 2018. You graduate and get a job. You finally have enough money to buy a new computer. Just for memories, you download steam. You download CSGO. You can’t believe you haven’t played this game in 4 years. You boot up the game. Everything feels different. You go to your inventory. You finally see the cool skin that you unlocked. Just out of curiosity, you check how much the skin is selling for. Your jaw drops. That skin is worth almost your PC. Fast forward to 2024. You still haven’t sold the skin. It is still your most favourite skin. When you tell your father how much you spent to open the case and get the skin vs how much it is worth today, your dad laughs it off. Doesn’t believe you. But you are happy with your skin. You don’t wanna sell it no matter how much it is selling for. R.I.P. CSGO. Thanks for giving me a Howl.
That's oddly specific. But good story and good to know that life is treating you well. I personally joined the CSGO party a little too late. But I can feel your story, had a similar experience with Call of Duty: Black Ops 1. Was a console player back then. Moved, made new friends - all of them were PC gamers. Switched to PC as well, then, after some time, played less and less. That happy feeling I had when I found my PlayStation 3, de-dust(ed) [sorry, had to do it] it, booted and realized Black Ops 1 was still inside. Man... time was good, it still is. Just different, which isn't necessarily bad.
The only game in my life I've "learnt". A game I was invested in the eSports, watched majors, rushed home from College to play, was through Every update, played in teams, went to LANS, Met some online friends I still talk to, to this day, Was through all the controversies, all the gambling sites, scams, evolution of the maps, sounds, skins, a game I have almost a year of my life in play time alone in. The game I played non stop through college. You don't think back then it would be a point you look back at a game and think I remember moments from 10 Years ago and all the memories along the way. CS:GO really is something. A game I've grow and change as I've grown as a person myself. Great video.
Man where did the time go, it's so nostalgic but also so wild to me. I'm 30 now, I was still in university for a lot of those clips, it's so crazy to think it's almost a decade since I went to a local theater with a friend to watch the CS major between FNC and Envy on a bit of a whim (we had played CS as kids and casually played CSGO) and was immediately hooked to CS esports.
GO was such a big part of my life for so many years, never stopped playing it, always tried to get better, always wanted to go pro. When you say a video game has been a huge part in your life, something that taught you lessons that you'll never forget, people look at you like you're crazy or stupid. CSGO has helped me make friends, given me something to be happy about, and so much more. I'll never forget any of these clips and I'll never forget what GO gave me for so many years. I just regret I didn't fully appreciate the golden age of CS that I was living in. No idea why this video made me emotional, but salute CSGO. You will never be forgotten.
this was honestly such a great video. i was watching that liquid vs luminosity game live and my god, the insanity that went around it...i miss it so much. i miss everything about it.
As a mac user this is even more touching as i havent been able to play cs2 - genuine emotion from a videogame is hard to bring about, and yet i doubt there's a CS player out there that hasn't been brought to joy and brought to tears
Ay man even though I did not play CSGO back in the day (started when it went free to play), this still felt nostalgic, I love this game with my heart and soul!
Honestly I cried a tear, I think I watched most of those clips live The Happy deagle ace hit me the hardest, it was late night in France and was looking at the stream on the phone and I just stood up in the bed, shooked, as it happens and screamed silently to not wake up my parents Good times, had no one to share it the day but now i'm so happy it happens ! Thanks for the throwback :')
i don't think that cs:go was only about cybersport like in this video... you know, those moments when some major game changes appeared, like the first week after the release of R8, like some unbelievable boosts on overpass, like m4a1/m4a4 meta changes, like the release of a new case or operation, like your first expensive week drop or case drop, like your first global in mm or vl10 on faceit, like a new friend which you encountered in game, like a new personal record of kills in game, like a cool evening spent with your friends in game, like a hard stuck on specific rang for several months, like a major win/lose streak... like a good youth spent in the good game that was the csgo which i memorize...
It's crazy how many memories we share as a community that we will always remember and look back on with nostalgia. Thanks for sharing this, it was well put together and really makes me miss the csgo days.. 🥲
cs 2 is still great, just had so many good times in csgo its hard to forget.. met one of my best homies on there and still play with someone i consider a brother i met back in grade 4 haha
For some reason I get chills in my whole body. It's not as good as most of the other clips, but ScreaM with that headshot, was one weird day. Somehow we didn't know that we had all of the best moments ahead of us. How I would love to go back and do all of this again. Thank you, Global Offensive. Until next time.

Dear youtube algorythm please show this to me in 10 years so I can watch it with my children
cs took me through some really tough times, watching this video made my cry
Nothing could ever beat 2014 inferno, so much fun!
I will show it to my son in the future.
2015-2016 was peak CSGO memories. Especially summertime CS lobbies with friends were golden.
only time ill ever shed a tear as a man. The old flashbacks hittings

great edit, i love how condensed it is
Ive seen those clips hundreds of times and seeing them after years now almost made me cry
Guardian's shot so fast even the editor was too late to show it.
You have touched my feelings, I shall return for nostalgia. Until then, stay safe my fellow internet users.
Got literal chills watching this man. Beautiful!
watching this put a smile on my face, thank you
this music is so appropriate
god I remember watching all of that live on twitch, just starting high school in 2015, good old times, god I'm old
I remember watching all these games and little did I know it was the golden age of CSGO.
i had goosebumps all over my body watching this
Really didn't expect to get goosebumps from this, very nice.
As a mac user this is even more touching as i havent been able to play cs2 - genuine emotion from a videogame is hard to bring about, and yet i doubt there's a CS player out there that hasn't been brought to joy and brought to tears
Quite possibly the most beautiful video ever created. Bravo
Virtus pro... I miss that team. It was something special for me and lots of other fans from Poland.
“Admin he’s DOING IT SIDEWAYS!”
What a tasteful tribute, man. Well done!
Clearly deserves more views
Thank you my brother it means a lot to me
the snowball is rolling
@@sonder0001 it is!!! I actually can’t believe it
actual chills man the memories
Ay man even though I did not play CSGO back in the day (started when it went free to play), this still felt nostalgic, I love this game with my heart and soul!
i remember when we were nostalgic for 1.6 and source... didn't realize we have already come to a time where people are nostalgic for csgo
why did this make me emotional man
Such a good video. Thanks for sharing it with everyone
Made me tear up man so many memories
i legit got goosebumps watching this. Damn.
The way this is edited is amazing, nice job mate.
Thank you my brother 🙏
that is a great edit and such a good choice for the music
All those moments... will be lost in time. Like... tears... in rain.
that actually made me emotional
Remind me to rewatch this in 5 years, please.
will try my best to remember
goosebumps, remember coming home from highschool back in 2016 and play csgo all the day long
Dude that video is insanely nice to look at :))))
Honestly I cried a tear, I think I watched most of those clips live
The Happy deagle ace hit me the hardest, it was late night in France and was looking at the stream on the phone and I just stood up in the bed, shooked, as it happens and screamed silently to not wake up my parents
Good times, had no one to share it the day but now i'm so happy it happens !
Thanks for the throwback :')
2015 was the best year for CSGO
can't change my mind
this video gave me chills fr
i don't think that cs:go was only about cybersport like in this video...

like a good youth spent in the good game
that was the csgo which i memorize...
kinda crazy how I remember so many of these moments. What a beautiful game
"the reason we're broke, son. I spent so much money trying to get a good skin..."
"oh ok, dad."
Literally 😭
Great video bro, we all know every second of those clips, but you put them together so well! 🔥
Thank you my brother. I’m glad you enjoyed it!
This made me tear up
So glad I was part of go's highs and lows
Hey youtube please recommend me this video in 10 years
Damn i didn't even play csgo like that and I still got hit with the nostalgia.
Remind me of this video after 10 years
It's crazy how many memories we share as a community that we will always remember and look back on with nostalgia. Thanks for sharing this, it was well put together and really makes me miss the csgo days.. 🥲
I did not grow up with cs, but I just started playing cs2 5 months ago and it’s been great
So I can’t wait till cs2 feels like this as well
Dope video, gives me chills.
So much love in this clip, awesome
Thanks
Wow the title gave me chills
Nice tribute to a great game of my childhood 😄
Gave me goosebumps like that is INSANE
Don't cry because it's over; smile because it happened.
That happy double dap still the most iconic
Time sure does fly..
please tell my future grandkid to show me this
Even having never played CSGO I know what the hype is about
Thank you, CSGO i will miss you for a long time
now im depressed. but it gave me goosebumps.
its more than just a game my friends, its home
Fallen! Stop blowing my mind STILL gives me chills. Legendary era of CS.
i had goosebumps while watching this
damn bro, what an edit, congrats
Good memories son.....
good memories
Don't be sad the time is gone, be happy the time happened.
I dont know whether to proud or to cry on this video
Be proud that you can cry x
this is the most hype CSGO video I've ever seen
GREEN GREEN WHAT IS YOUR PROBLEM GREEN
Man, I wish I had the chance to get into CS during its prime.
cs 2 is still great, just had so many good times in csgo its hard to forget.. met one of my best homies on there and still play with someone i consider a brother i met back in grade 4 haha
Goodbye, CS:GO
Don't be sad it's been murdered, be happy it's been born
One of the greatest moments of online wealth creation, supported by an insane cast of personalities that became legends all on their own. What a game.
semmler and anders together still unreached
bro just made me shed a tear :')
We didn’t appreciate it enough while we had it.
For some reason I get chills in my whole body. It's not as good as most of the other clips, but ScreaM with that headshot, was one weird day. Somehow we didn't know that we had all of the best moments ahead of us. How I would love to go back and do all of this again. Thank you, Global Offensive. Until next time.
See you again 10 years later
I had goosebumps the whole 1min27
This game is something else man...
This gave me goosebumps
such a good edit
truly one of the greatest games of all time, such a simple skill based game that was the birth of competitive fps
