However, it is a little late to the party, as CS:GO has been refining its offering through consistent updates since and it has built up a lot of momentum.
Its leading stars are millionaires with huge social media following,, its Twitch viewer base is colossal and it boasts all manner of famous teams. Call of Duty has a lot of catching up to do, but fans of the series were upset by the lack of a campaign mode, and the next title in the series — Call of Duty: Modern Warfare — has brought back the single-player campaign mode. CS:GO has a low skill floor and it is very accessible, but it also boasts an extremely high skill ceiling.
This has allowed a competitive scene to flourish. Fans love to watch the leading lights lock horns in tense matches, with heaps of cash and huge levels of prestige riding on the outcome. Watching a player like s1mple, dev1ce, NiKo or Stewie2K in action can be exhilarating, due to their sheer mastery of such a complex game. Fans can appreciate what they are doing, but they know they lack the skill to pull it off themselves, making it the perfect esport.
It is aimed at a general audience and it does not require as much effort to become good at the series, so it does not lend itself as well to competitive gaming.
It is now seven years since CS:GO was launched and it has built up a strong and passionate community during that time. There have been a number of upgrades, which keeps the game fresh and dynamic, while exploiting advances in technology. But it essentially remains the same game and this consistency has allowed professional players to build up their skills over time, while it has gradually evolved.
While there is more interest in professional Counter-Strike, Call of Duty definitely brings in more players to its regular game modes. Both games claim to go for realism, but they do have a different approach. Call of Duty might go for realism, but the franchise is more casual friendly.
It developed as a powerhouse of popular multiplayer. A kind of accessibility comes with that. The game has a story mode and requires time to unlock its content, but not too much time to learn to play. CS:GO on the other hand is focused on skill. It has a low barrier to entry but takes a good time longer to really become skilled at the game. CSGO has richer gameplay for Esports, but it can be overwhelming for more casual players in comparison with Call of Duty. I play battlefield to and still prefer CS:GO as again battlefield is just a run around and shoot game, with respawns.
No skills needed. In fact, just to top it all off.. He used cods normal method, i used skills to me, skilled players play CS:GO. Last edited by Chiaroscuro 2 ; 16 Oct, pm. Why do you guys answer to this troll?
