CS Beta 5.0 was when it peaked. After that it went straight downhill: Beta 6 was when they nerfed the AR w/ laser sight and introduced the P90 auto-kill. The entire game became nothing but bunny-hopping single-shotters w/ P90s and/or Desert Eagles. Lame.
It's the same shit that is happening now w/ MW2. Bunch of bugs in the game = bunch of glitchers ruining matches.
My fav team-based FPS of all time = Battlefield 2. At it's peak it was the ultimate: coordinated land/air/sea. It took teamwork to win those matches; of course that was also its downfall: too few team players out there.
I liked Team Fortress almost as much... that is until they nerfed the conc grenades. Being able to conc-jump across a map was the fun part. Once they took that out it lost all its appeal.
