It's a good game but you must fix AI because they players are doing some random staff.... and when they have awp it's like rifler....

Just started, bottom tier team. Players barely out of academy. Enrol in first tournament, first opponent: NAVI. Sweet, next major. First opponent: Heroic. Sweet, next major: First opponent: Falcons. But this time I'm close to winning. My CT's let the enemy defuse on site while they go sight-seeing on monster! 13-10. Sweet, next major. First opponent: NiP. This game needs actual lower tier tournaments, how are my 1 * characters supposed to contend with the busted rosters in this game. It's like putting Bradford City against Arsenal in their debut match. Also, until AI is fixed and actually acts properly (not just letting people defuse in the open) I can't say it's worth the purchase yet. It's fun, but infuriating. 4/10 - Needs Work.

Much improved from the demo and by far the best game of its kind. It needs to expand on the actual gameplay, the simulator and maps look good & the AI is extremely improved when compared to the demo, but lacks a bit of depth. Would like to see some mid-rounding possibility, timeouts (perhaps with coach buff per timeout, or like a hint of the best strat to call that round?), tier 3-4 are an absolute must (seems this is coming in August, so shall wait and see) as the current big teams competing against farmers and IT support workers is a bit silly. It feels way too easy to get the best staff in the world when starting out as a new org (or just in general with any org), you search whatever role you want and then have 5 star staff, for pretty acceptable wages. Maybe can scale how much info you have on staff dependant on CEO level, or org level, or put a scouting process in so you have to put in a bit more legwork before everything is revealed. Or maybe just scale the difficulty so you can choose, and have best of both worlds. Might also be a good idea to practice individual and/or groups of strats, to increase their efficiencies - could also include an anti-strat system down the line in which bigger teams are more likely to succeed against your most common strats. I would like to see the team's language competency feature finetuned a bit also, it is a great idea so you can't cheese rosters and have the best player from every part of the world - but if you are going to have it, you need a way to teach your players English / whatever the team's language is (perhaps there should then be a feature to set the speaking language of the team?) so it can improve over-time. Plenty of examples in the pro scene of rosters going international and having to learn or expand upon new languages. In FM, for example, they have a bit on the player's profile which says which languages they can speak, and then courses you can pay for when they join a foreign team. Regardless great fun, the success of the game feels entirely dependant on how well the devs will respond to feedback and criticism & how hard they will work on gameplay improvements and/or bug fixing.

All the negative reviews expect far too much already of a game which is the first of its kind for Counter Strike fans. Yes it needs work in terms of AI in the game and the strats not always matching up, but the custom tool is actually fairly decent, the whole experience is satisfying and it’s one of those relatively cheap games you’ll play to switch off with. If it doesn’t improve with updates in a few months time I’ll change my mind, but if you want a game you can play without much thought and enjoy managing your own CS team, this is perfect

this is 100 times better than the first demo. Keep working on the AI and maybe allow us to throw in some mid-round calls and it will be perfect. Also would love a casual sandbox mode where i can just get the top5 into one team :D
