I mean CSGO turned into CS2 in my steam library.
So CSGO effectively doesn't exist anymore. I say 'killed' is accurate
Laughs in 1.6...
Yeah, so dumb from them, CS2 was not ready at all.
You can still open csgo by selecting it from the beta tab on CS2. Can still join community servers on there through to the end of the year iirc
Doubt valve will have ironed out this forced open beta by then though
They won't shut down the game at the end of the year. They just said they won't be maintaining it / ensuring compatibility
It was a free update/upgrade for CS:GO. That's like saying v2.0 killed v1.9.
Also, major upgrades for free ten years after release is frankly unheard of. This isn't a "trend"
