CS:GO goes free, as if we didn't have enough hackers and smurfs already. Does anyone know if it will stay F2P permanently? If so, I am seriously considering the uninstall option..
Also, everyone keeps jumping at the BR wagon, doubt Valve will prevail.. considering they've been showering with money the last years.
the prime matchmaking is still behind the paywall
f2p status for non-prime matchmaking will change nothing if you've been already playing csgo for a bit
My main concern is newer players, while f2p system and the battleroyale mode will undoubtedly bring new people in, they'll eventually want to try the prime status.
They will be met with 2 matches per day allowed to achieve a rank, all the while slugging through with cheaters because they can't achieve the prime status yet
TLDR:
New players come, try matchmaking and leave
But ultimately, nothing will change for us that already have the game
