Games DO die and no matter what you change you can’t save them. CS16 has been sucking the life out of people for 12 years now, maybe it’s just its time to die?
Has anyone looked at CS from a broader prospective to see if ours is the only one that just dried up? Check the non-Valve gameplay stats (like Xfire) and you’ll notice CS isn’t anywhere near the top and is far below CSS.
