Just eight months after its rather dreary figures, Valve revealed its new Source Engine, which many games we know and love are still running to this day. Although the albeit new and more aesthetically pleasing game was for sale, the majority of the playerbase stuck with the original iteration of the game. Even the semi-serious players had the ability to find some competitive style matches using the IRC channels #findscrim and #findringer.įour years after its initial retail date, Valve released an updated version of the series called Counter-Strike: Condition Zero. These companies were the beginning of CS eSports, offering prize money for those at the upper echelon. With leagues like CAL, CPL, and ESEA there were plenty of opportunities to play with like minded players. On top of the various "casual" servers and game types, there came the competitive level. Counter-Strike was a limitless source of fun with the amount of potential community driven content. There were even mods within the game such as surfing, zombies, Warcraft 3 Mod and many more. The community was a breeding ground for innovation. Strategic positions, smoke grenades, flash grenades and even using the ability to stand on one anothers heads to gain a positional advantage. However, as the players spent countless hours running around the maps such as de_dust2, and cs_assault they were beginning to uncover the true potential for the game. The gameplay itself was relatively simple kill the other team. Everyone had heard of the game if not played it, at one point or another. With the help of Valve Corporation, the Counter-Strike title sold a staggering 4 million units in its 1.0 through 1.6 versions. So much so, that not a year later Le and Cliffe were hired by Valve to release the first retail version of the game in November of 2000. The two managed to draw some significant attention to the mod. The two masterminds behind this eventual legendary game? Minh "Gooseman" Le and Jess "Cliffe" Cliffe. Originally, it was released as a Half-Life modification (mod) using Valve's GldSrc engine. June 19th, 1999 marked the birth of the gaming titan we all know and love, Counter-Strike.
