For many years Counterstrike was extremely popular and then came along CSS servers when Half Life 2 was released. Many people stuck with 1.6 but others were converted especially when they upgraded their computer and found the graphics were so much better than the old game.
For the tactical snob Counterstrike appeals, as well as offering fast paced free for all. There are different maps to compliment these varying gameplays. With anything from four a side to potentially thirty-two you have to be able to adapt and cope with both types of thinking. Clans enjoy playing either 5 v 5 or 7 v 7 but smaller or larger teams have been known. Standard Counterstrike has two main types of gameplay- either with a bomb, or hostage.
The game was made popular for the fact that you could put so many different plug-ins and add-ons to your server to allow you to make things different and unique. Many cool game types such as surf and Warcraft are available. The admin tools made available make admin on the server an easy life. RCON is great and powerful but has clumsy commands.
Like with mods, the game has been full of custom maps. Some are designed to work specifically for a type of game like death match, fun or prison break. Developers still make custom maps for the original game types with demolition and hostage maps. This isn't surprising, since these gametypes are still the most popular.
The game employs weapons from different armies from all round the world. Each weapon mimics recoil, range and power of the real world weapons. CS gamers still squabble today as to which weapons are best.
Counterstrike is relatively simple to run on a dedicated server, and one single server can host many different game servers. It also allows better control as you are able to edit your own start line and thus you can change player slots and the start map.
Counterstrike offers in-game text based chat as well as voice communication. In game voice is very easy to use, but the quality isn't great. Hardcore gamers generally opt for a dedicated voice server such as Ventrilo or Teamspeak 3. A dedicated voice server offers admin, privacy and control.
