counter strike is my favorite online game

about the game:

Counter-Strike

Counter-Strike, commonly abbreviated to CS, is a series of team-based, tactical first-person shooter games which originated with a total conversion mod (Counter-Strike), created by Minh "gooseman" Le and Jess Cliffe, of Valve Software's first-person shooter, Half-Life. The series now also includes Counter-Strike: Condition Zero and Counter-Strike: Source.

Counter-Strike pits a team of counter-terrorists against a team of terrorists in rounds of competition won by completing an objective or eliminating the opposing force. The latest incarnation of the game, Counter-Strike: Source, is based on the Source engine developed for Half-Life 2. Counter-Strike is widely acknowledged as the most successful and popular of the tactical shooter genre. Signs of Counter-Strike's wide influence can be found in mods for games such as Quake III Arena, Unreal Tournament, and other standalone shooters such as Global Operations and Soldier of Fortune II.

As of May 2006, Counter-Strike is still the most widely played online first-person shooter and has over 19.5 million legal owners.[citation needed] In 2002 there were over 30,000 Counter-Strike servers on the Internet (second place was Unreal Tournament with about 9,800[citation needed]). In 2004, GameSpy statistics showed over 85,000 players simultaneously playing Counter-Strike at any point in time, and in 2006, Steam regularly shows over 200,000 players for Counter-Strike[1] (this includes Counter-Strike: Source, Counter-Strike: Condition Zero and Counter-Strike); accounting for almost 70 percent of the online first-person shooter playing audience.[citation needed] According to statistics gathered by Valve's content-delivery platform, Steam, these players contribute to over 4.5 billion minutes of playing time each month,[1] solidifying its position as the most popular online first-person shooter in history. Counter-Strike was originally played online through the WON gaming service, which was shut down in 2004,[2] forcing players to switch to Steam (to which a section of players responded by creating their own WON network, dubbed WON2).

Gameplay
Counter-Strike is a team-based first-person shooter in which players join either the Terrorists or the Counter-Terrorists. Server settings may automatically balance teams when one team has more players than the other. Each round starts with the two teams spawning simultaneously, as one of eight different default character models (four to choose from for both Counter-Terrorist and Terrorist. Counter-Strike: Condition Zero added two extra models, bringing the total to ten). Each player generally starts with $800, two magazines of ammunition, a knife, and a pistol: a Heckler & Koch USP .45 Tactical for Counter-Terrorists, and a GLOCK 18c for Terrorists. Players are generally given a few seconds before the round begins (known as "freeze time") to buy equipment, during which time they cannot move in any direction or attack, although they can jump in place. Players may buy equipment whenever they are in a buy zone for their team (some zones can be for both teams, depending on the map) provided the round has not been in session for longer than a specified time (90 seconds is default). Once the round has ended, surviving players retain their equipment for use in the next round; those who have died begin the next round with the default pistol and knife.


Picture of a Terrorist using a Desert Eagle on the map de_dust in the original Counter-Strike (left) and Counter-Strike: Source (right).Standard monetary bonuses in the game are:

Win a round: $3500 (awarded at the beginning of the following round)
Lose a round: $2500 (awarded at the beginning of the following round)
Kill an enemy: $300 (awarded instantly)
Instruct a hostage to follow: $150 (awarded instantly. Only works once per hostage, per round)
Rescue a hostage: $1000 (awarded instantly)
Plant the bomb: $800 (awarded at the beginning of the following round)
The scoreboard shows team scores plus data for each player: name, score, deaths, and ping(in milliseconds) on the map. The scoreboard also shows whether each player is dead, carrying the bomb (in bomb defusal maps), or the VIP (in assassination maps), although the player must be dead during the round to obtain this information about players on the opposing team.

Players killed become "ghosts" for the duration of the round; they cannot change their names, text chat cannot be sent to or received from live players; and, while voice chat can still be received from live players, it cannot be sent to them. (unless the cvar sv_alltalk is set to 1, in which case voice chat can be freely exchanged between dead and living players). They are generally able to watch the rest of the round from multiple selectable views, although some servers disable some of these views to prevent dead players from relaying information about living players to their teammates through alternative media (most notably voice in case of Internet cafes and players in the same rooms of their own homes, playing on the same server). This technique, known as "ghosting", is considered cheating in many tactical shooters.

Counter-Strike is meant to be more realistic than futuristic first-person shooters such as Quake III Arena and Unreal Tournament, but is also built to keep the action flowing faster than more realistic tactical shooters such as the Rainbow Six and Ghost Recon series. For example, relatively few shots will kill a player, and shots to different parts of the body inflict varying amounts of damage, but damage has no permanent bearing on ability to run or jump, allowing a player with just a few hit points remaining to keep fighting just as well as any other player. Movement, however, is restricted while taking damage from gunfire, and a player cannot run at full speed whilst taking damage.

There are several game types in Counter-Strike which define the objectives of each team in the game, and rules which determine which team wins. Each map is of a single game type.



Bomb Defusal

In bomb defusal missions, a member of the terrorists plants a bomb while counter-terrorist members attempt to prevent its detonation.In bomb defusal, one randomly selected Terrorist begins the round carrying a bomb of Composition C-4 plastic explosive. The Terrorists' objective is to plant the bomb at a bomb site (of which there usually are two in a map, Bombsite-A and Bombsite-B, commonly referred to simply as "A" or "B"), and ensure its detonation, or eliminate all Counter-Terrorist forces. If the bomb has not been planted, and if all the members of one team have been eliminated, then the surviving team wins. If the bomb has been planted and proceeds to explode, the Terrorists win, but if a Counter-Terrorist defuses the bomb (Counter-Terrorists can purchase an optional kit to speed up defusal times), the Counter-Terrorists win. When the round time expires without the bomb being successfully planted, the Counter-Terrorists win. Deaths due to the detonation of the bomb do not increment the player's death count. Maps of this type are prefixed with de_ (e.g. "de_dust" and "de_inferno"). Professional tournaments are normally only played on Bomb Defusal maps. Usually, the time required for the bomb to explode after being planted is about 45 seconds

My favorite online game is Final Fantasy 11, which is still my favorite despite the fact that I have not had access to it for quite some time.

Final Fantasy XI. It is a MMORPG. I like it because you are not limited to one job/class of character. You can level all the jobs with one character. Also, I am not into PvP, I don't want to worry about stepping into someone's territory and then boom I am dead because some level 80 decided to cut of the head of my level 20. If you like to get in that PvP action, though, they have something called Ballista in the game.

I think it is worth checking out.
