Welcome to Counter-Strike!
Counter-Strike, a multiplayer modification for Half-Life, pits two teams against each other: the terrorists and counter-terrorists (CTs). The terrorists are the bad guys and the counter-terrorists are the good guys, much like the SWAT team for lack of a better comparison. It is the counter-terrorists job to complete whatever objective the map holds within the given time frame or to completely exterminate the terrorist threat. Players can buy weapons, ammo, and equipment that are realistically modeled after their real-world counterparts. In this modification teamwork is greatly encouraged in order to complete the map's objectives. After every round teams members are allocated money based on individual and team performance for that round.
There are two basic teams in Counter-Strike. The player has the option of either joining the counter-terrorists or the terrorists upon entering a server. The counter-terrorists, also known as the good guys, look to eliminate the terrorist threat completely or complete the map objectives. The terrorists, the traditional bad guys, are not too fond of the counter-terrorists and look to stop them at all costs. The terrorists look to completely destroy the counter-terrorist task force or hold them off long enough to prevent any sort of hostage rescue. Different maps present different challenges and strategies for each team. Some players take up one team as a favorite while others will pick the one that suits them the best for that map. It is recommended the player play on each team for each of the different maps and discover which one they are the most comfortable with for that map.
Counter-Strike contains a large variety of weapons, ammo, and equipment modeled after real-world counterparts of the same type. Players who are familiar with weapons such as the AK-47 and MP5 should probably know what to expect from the weapons in Counter-Strike. In order to buy equipment, ammo, or weapons the player must be in a "shopping" area. A little green shopping trolley will appear on the left hand side of the player's screen while he or she is able to buy goods. The default key to open up the "buy menu" is 'B'. Pressing B will give the you a list of categories to purchase items from. From there the you can decide what you need to achieve your team's goal.
There are a variety of maps in Counter-Strike each with their own objectives. While on every map a team can win by completely eliminating the other team, all maps have an alternative option to succeeding. In the hostage rescue maps it is up to the CTs to rescue the hostages from within the terrorist encampment and bring them to safety. Assassination, Escape, and "Defusion" are other forms of maps. In Assassination maps one of the CTs acts as a V.I.P. who must reach safety before the terrorists can extinguish him. In Escape maps a percentage of the terrorists must escape by way of an escape point before a given percentage of terrorists are killed by CTs. Defusion maps feature bomb targets, which the terrorists strive to plant a pack of C4 to and blow up. It is the CTs goal to stop the terrorists from blowing up their target.
