What is Counter-Strike?
Counter-Stike is a modification (MOD) to the excellent game, Half-Life.It modifies the multiplayer aspects of Half-Life to bring to it a more team-oriented gameplay. Not terribly unlike Team Fortress2, Counter-Strike provides the player with an experience that a trained counter-terrorist unit or terrorist unit experiences. The MOD is team-based featuring one team playing the role of the terrorist and the other team playing the role of the anti-terrorist. Each side has access to different guns and equipment, as well as different abilities. Maps will have different goals such as: hostage rescue, assasination, kill the entire opposing force, etc. Weapons include the usual assortment of pistols, shotguns, assault rifles, sniper rifles, grenades, demolition devices. Each side has access to a different subset of weapons so it may be the case that only the counter-terrorist can use the M4A1, and only the terrorists can use the AK-47. The CS-Team is confident that they've created a MOD quite unlike any other, that is still fun to play and free!
