Counter-Strike : Global Offensive Achievements Explained

2012-04-19T23:35:00.001-07:00

Hi, first off Achievements or Awards are given to players for completing a certain tasks in the game. Counter-Strike : Global Offensive has divided it into 5 Classes. (well I call it classes) The five classes are Team Tactics, Combat Skills, Weapon Specialist, Global Expertise and Arsenal Mode. Each classes has its own achievements/awards and by completing a number of achievements/awards on each classes you earn a Medal.
Each Medal has its own ranking by color which is Copper/Silver/Gold meaning the more awards/achievements you get in a certain class ranks up your Medal. Copper being the lowest Gold being the highest. Medals are displayed in-game when you press (tab) showscore button. Other people can also see the medals you have but it doesn't really determine the skill you have in-game. Some people who don't have medals or only a few maybe even be better skill-wise. It's just for Eye-Candy I guess anyway that pretty much sums up what I know. Sorry if Its too long of a read and If there's some grammatical errors, English is not my first language.

Arsenal Arms Race Game Mode on Counter-Strike : Global Offensive Beta

2012-04-19T16:25:00.001-07:00

The latest addition to Counter Strike : Global Offensive Beta game mode is the Arsenal Arms Race

Every time you kill an enemy a new weapon is rewarded instantly. You win the game when you or a teammate gets to the last weapon which is the knife and kill an enemy team with the knife. Basically a race to knife game probably why its called "Arsenal Arms Race"

My opinions:

Pretty fast paced and fun game.

Can earn weapon achievements pretty easily on this game.

Screenshot's included are the maps available for this game mode. Will add more screenshot's when I get to it later.

Map : Shoots

Map : Baggage

Demolition Game Mode : De_Lake on Counter-Strike : Global Offensive Beta

2012-04-19T11:45:00.002-07:00

Here are some screenshot's of the map De_Lake playable using the Game Mode "Demolition" on Counter Strike : Global Offensive

My thoughts:

It's a pretty easy map to play at. Easy pick offs on both CT/T sides on mid. Also changes guns every round if you get a successful kill on that round.

This is from the Counter Terrorist POV:

CT Base.

CT Side : Right Side of Lake House

CT Base Side Bomb Area

Top Floor of Lake House

This is the Terrorist POV:

I have been selected to be one of the beta players of one of the most anticipated game coming out this summer which is Counter Strike : Global Offensive from Valve. You can fill up some survey on blog.counter-strike.net

I'll be writing a small review on the gameplay and some bugs I have met and some other valve updates. Here are some screenshots.
