Factions have been apart of Counter-Strike since CS 1.6 , we had factions such as the elite crew and the artic avengers and this continued all the way through till CSGO before they where removed in CS2.

Fun fact: Most iconic factionsin the game are Leet Krew and GIGN, because they are default values if you disable other models with the command cl_min_models 1.
On Overpass, GSG9
IDF, GSG9 My favourites
Yeah , sure it's about the lore ….
nah they just want money
Afaik somebody once said the reason is that they don't want to associate the game with actual factions/events etc
What was free they made it paid 😂 unbelievable, I thought making the classic knife paid through gambling on 24th anniversary of Counter strike a dick move but this was a whole another level.
Arab man didn't plant the bomb he was the bomb 💀
This is one of few things why I don't like CS2
Storyline? On cs2? If that had happened we would already have a Co-Op Operation, we still don't have it.
CS lore more like CS money
i still feel like cs2 is in beta, maybe they add then back soon who knows.
No. The reason why they removed the skins, because most of them were terorists and due to modern world, they didnt want to be asociated with them. They removed all terorist variants leaving with bandits, same with CTs because it wouldnt make sense to have multiple on one side and single on the other. To add onto this dessosiation, they planned on renaming terrorists to Phoenix group and CTs to SAS.
Weird that people dont know this and spread missleading facts.
i miss the old dust2 ct's wiht their weird floppy hats
I miss polezei
i'd like to believe it is mainly based around a gameplay perspective, just making every model hitbox consistent etc
Basicly valve was to lazy to remake all the characters all they cared about was the skins for weapons and the mini cazino games in the cs
I miss artic advenger espeacely from cs cz
Nah removing faction was the trash move
Professionals (bank, vertigo) pirates (st marc, seaside) and anarchists (office) added so much to the atmosphere of their respective maps. I can understand removing idf and separatists but it just feels like cs2 doesn't have that same creative spirit as csgo. just look at the differences in the cinematic trailers..
Anyone that knows Valve saw players skins becoming purchasable in CS2 from a mile away.
is the storyline in the room with us right now?
I just noticed it’s only phoenix and SAS, I completely forgot about the others and I don’t miss them 😂
Nope, my old fat man just sees money
❌ different games
✅ same game with different label and graphics
For money and to put aside racist views less controversy more money.. i mean idf being ct side back in the day isnt exactly true is it
The story is about two friends named John Phoenix and Jim Sas who lead two factions and as part of their rivalry, they compete who whether can destroy or save the most parts of the world.
The old CS had balls, the new CS is just a money grab
Storyline? What? Do you expect valve to act like the act in the 2010s? When they still had ideas for stories instead of just makin money
Theres no lore anymore
Just lore about skins and closing fan projects like Nintendo
Arab Man.
"… Valve is trying to create a new storyline"
LMAO Those lazy half-brains can't copy things from GO, let alone create something new
I mis the t side on inferno
They will probably return when all the faction models are updated. Some of them were pretty old looking like SWAT, Gign, Pirates and Anarchists. Besides they could even be making new factions like Guerrilla, Scuba and even Arctic Avengers. Guerilla and Scuba are already purchasable factions but there could be their default versions.
Nah, the skins being equipped by players in different maps aren’t canon, so the lore is still the same
Well Phoenix are the real T"rrorists and biggest enemy of all CSGO lore. They are the reason why CT exists.
The fucking storyline is cash. You get it?
😂. Open another case.
Its because if all agents of every map are the same it makes them all more recognizable and visible to the opposing team. But I also believe its so they can sell you agent skins and make money sadly :/
A lot of people instantly jump to the "money" reason, but another one could be that some can be seen as pretty controversial now. The seperatists are almost 1:1 to an actual, real life (now defunct) terrorist group, the ETA, and the IDF, for the conflict that currently happening (why was the IDF even on dust 2 for so long)
Mate, it feels like you are talking with ''O'' shape mouth. Like a pipe shape lips xDDD
Instead of factions you now have a testicle you can attach to the gun
Also there would be soft people whining about IDF and Middle Eastern terrorists. When it's just a game.
Valve can't even come up with HL3, but they want to create a story line for CS??? I guess the operation pass storyline with Phoenix shit just wasn't cutting it. Gabe has the imagination of a hamster and a wheel.
valve changed I hate new valve game flooded with cheaters and tons of bugs just only cared thing is case gambling with keys… its not cs2 its gambling sim with bundle vs cheaters sim
