CS2D Review
I was a CS2D fan for a long time. Back then, I was such a poor fellow that couldn’t afford any game! So it was either piracy or a freeware game. For most of us, those were the only options. So I stood by this game for many years, playing role play prison servers, custom zombie servers and so much more… This game used to be filled with players back then, but slowly the players started to move away from CS2D. As every year goes by, a massive amount of players drift away. Sad… until Unreal Software got this onto Steam! When I saw this on the free to play section I jumped out of my seat, amazed that such a game like this made it into the store! I quickly installed it (I haven’t played the game in years) and I was amazed by how much they’ve done with the game.
There’s now dynamic lighting, 3D walls (even though it would mess up the name of the game), a better modding support, HD skins and textures (that were taken from the CS2D forums community), revamped maps, widescreen support and so much more. You can tell the people behind this game really were dedicated.
I got to give it to them, turning Counter Strike into a top down ‘2D’ game is challenging but it was worth a try. Good on them. God bless Unreal Software.
Conclusion:
This game is not very clever, and it doesn’t inted to be. It knows what It wanted to be. Goofy and very stupidly fun. Don’t play regular gamemodes, that will get boring really quick. Get out there, join a silly custom server and have fun with strangers online. This game is free, and now extremly easy to access thanks to Steam so you will see some annoying people. If you’re rich and have lots of money or whatever, you wont like this game. Go ahead and buy your brand new AAA corperate repetitive games. We’ll just stick around in the indie corner. I love the people behind this game. They worked hard to make this a thing. I know this game looks so laughable in the eyes of CSGO players, but that’s the point!; to have fun. If you like to take your games seriously, this game isn’t for you, sorry.
