Any chance for CS:GO to become f2p ?

nope...f2p for more aimbot, wallhack etc????

CS source is still not free, why would CS GO become free?

why to make something that makes super money, for free?

In few years, when it won't be able to get to first place on bestseller list during sales.

Lol nope.
And should the time comes it really goes f2p I will stop playing it entirely. That's for sure.

Please, no more little kids. I think Valve knows this.

Nah, don't think so.

but what if it happens like tf2 ? how long tf2 stayed as payed game before it become f2p ?

I hope not.

No. Definitely not.

There is a CS modification, which is free (dum dum dum ) in China. CS Online is free there, but EVERYTHING costs real money to buy. Weapons, clothes etc. It's really popular there, but it definitely not the game, which you know as CS here.

If it does it probably won't be for quite a few years.

Eventually.

Hopefully never.

Can't remember, but i found once Counter strike GO that's was going F2P. But it with another app ID in steam. Maybe the same CS:GO but with no competetive and Item drops.

F2P should never happen.

It's possible, but it hasn't been out for long enough yet. I think TF2 only went free to play when few purchased the game anymore. They were going to make more in microtransactions than they were in actual sales of the game, so it made sense for them from a business standpoint to tap into that potential cash. I'm sure CS:GO still makes enough revenue that it doesn't matter, but in a few years when few people buy the game anymore they will make it F2P and rely on microtransactions once again.

Source didn't have microtransactions, did it? It's been a while, but I don't remember it. That's probably why it isn't f2p. Making it f2p would pull players from CS:GO, making them lose money.

no, never, considering they already have issues with hackers, making it f2p would give hackers unlimited accounts

I relaly hope not.

Hopefully no.

cheaters, cheaters, cheaters

I think they don't need to make it F2P, CSGO has a pretty big player base already, price is pretty "low" compared to other shooting games, so it's kind of unnecessary to go F2P to reach more players because the franchise is well-known and has a good reputation.

Also they know that it carries the "CS" name, it's not like the game will die in the next 5~6 years, too many fans of the franchise.

I think the crew on TF2 made the F2P choice because it was the best way to make the game more popular at that time (and it was kind of the start of the cosmetic market thing).

Valve knows the fans they have, the backlash would be huge if it went F2P, you will notice that most of the CS fans don't take seriously F2P shooting games.

NO , NO , NO!!!
If Valve would make it F2P , then bunch of dumb kids (or CoD fags) and idiotic cheaters will come and ruin whole game.

If they do they should give us something exclusive like TF2 so I can sell that shit and get back the money I've paid for
