Is it still worth playing?
Valve's 2000 tactical, team based multiplayer first person shooter for Windows, which began as a Half-Life mod by Minh Le with Jess Cliffe. Two teams, Counter-Terrorists and Terrorists, play objective rounds. On bomb defusal maps, prefixed de_, Counter-Terrorists win by defusing within the time limit and Terrorists if the bomb detonates, on hostage maps, prefixed cs_, hostages are rescued, and on as_ maps a VIP is escorted. Players spawn together, and when killed they spectate until the round ends. Each starts with a knife, a pistol and 800 dollars, and buys weapons and equipment in buy zones with money from wins, losses and kills, while killing teammates or hostages costs money. It became an esport from 2000 to 2001. With no respawn and weapons bought with money from wins, losses and kills, each round is still a team decision about what to buy today.
