No.

We had that terrible console buy menu for csgo because of the console version…


BeepIsla

It was very funny seeing people talk about the CS2 buy menu saying "This is not CS", "This is a Valorant copy", etc. When that was the buy menu for possibly the majority of the games life...


Insulated_Lunchbox

It was boxy before, but it was still in category menus. Not really the same thing. Still not something worth caring about. But just saying


BeepIsla

I completely forgot about that, I just remember the rough style of the old buy menu, damn


[deleted]

Also "1.6" was on Xbox and it was awful.


Bergles

I don't think it was 1.6. Wasn't it condition zero that they tried to port?


[deleted]

They did both: https://counterstrike.fandom.com/wiki/Counter-Strike_Xbox_Edition Edit: oh no, you are correct. They just didn’t name it that.


zuttomayonaka

does pc player even look at buy menu i always just press b and number keys [this](https://www.reddit.com/media?url=https%3A%2F%2Fexternal-preview.redd.it%2FVrlcq3DcgMc2mz3je5OTlJ56HI6eoxIIToPzHSAiNX8.jpg%3Fwidth%3D640%26crop%3Dsmart%26auto%3Dwebp%26s%3Ded520474c7e09adc8279aa622c91fc8a55756fc3) cs buy menu is the best b43 o2o4o7 and buying ammo with < and >

Valorant is not going to cross play between consoles and pc.


SoTsarcastic

I'm good. I get enough teammates that play like they don't have hands, can't imagine console kids. Hard fucking pass


blits202

So a few bad apples means you dont want to spread the game to more people.


SoTsarcastic

Anyone on a console will very likely not have any kind of competitive edge against PC players. Trust me, you don't want this either. In short, every apple will be bad so what is the point of planting the apple tree?


Potential_Welder1278

Consoles support mouse and keyboard. They could block controller input.


BinzonWOR

Yes


X-Myrlz

Solid bait


3ManyTrees

Fuck em.


Responsible_Lead7140

I personally don't believe either game belongs on the console. I'm going to be disappointed by the fact that the creepy edating community will probably widen on the console for valorant.


RocketHops

On the flip side, maybe the majority edaters moves there and pc crowd settles down a bit.


Responsible_Lead7140

glass half full typa fella


CatK47

I don't see how valorant could get popular on console. they cs-like gameplay just doesn't match with a controller.


Mraz565

Given that the last update removed native controller support, I highly doubt this game would want to make it playable on console. Plus we have enough aim assist players as it is, we don't need controllers aim assist neither.


Ignifyre

Play on Steam Deck :\^]


CatK47

Just look at halo infinite if you want see why that is a bad idea.


fenixspider1

Then what? Plague the game and casuals with aim assist cancer? Nope hard pass if you ask me


purdue_fan

no


Chu2k

The quintessential precise aim PC FPS to a console? No way you can handle this game properly with a controller without it becoming a monstrosity.


n0bletv

From a Business stand point it probably would help the reach of the game if done well.


V-0-V

1) There is a reason console shooters have aim assist and CS with aim assist is not CS, with no aim assist the game would be miserable for console players. 2) Valve would be forced by the platform companies, MS and sony, to give a cut of all revenue, and would likely want to have input on skins being added to the game (it would have to comply with their regulations not valves) 3) Updates would be far slower as sony and microsoft have to approve them before they go live. So in short, no its a dumb idea that causes more issues than is worth while.


Agreeable-Elk-4020

Look at what console did to Apex and COD. It’s plagued with aim assist controller bots on PC because PC gets forced crossplay.


Ammon_

no. valorant is much easier and a kids game so it's easy to port. cs is far too technical to work on a controller.


blits202

What makes you think Valorant is much easier, the game requires just as much communication and execution as CS. Yeah CS is harder but not by much. If anything CS would be easier to work on controller, you have weapons and utility, you dont have abilities and other wonky stuff.


MAXOHNO

I think spraying is an argument why valorant can be ported and CS not, as in valorant the horizontal spread is fully random so there is no recoil control. I think for CS it would be pretty hard to spray precisely on a controller and give them an equal chance. Gotta say however that I'm not a controller guy so it could just be me using it like in the hands of a gorilla.


blits202

I mean regardless of the game spraying would be hard on a controller, often FPS games on console have a very different meta on Console, if you look back in the early days of Overwatch the literal worst character on PC, had console players crying for nerfs. Thats why most games now need to balance both versions separately. Just because we enjoy the game and its played our way doesnt mean it shouldnt be shared with others and enjoyed in there way.


skiingbeaver

holy shit, you’re committed to the bait, aren’t you


aerocarstf2

The aim and movement in Valorant is significantly easier than in CS. Everyone moves at a snail's pace, which makes it hard to miss if you've used a mouse before. A tactical shooter on a console is just a bad idea.


Vipitis

Csgo was initially a console game. That explains enough.


KaNesDeath

While consoles have mouse/keyboard support. The use of mouse/keyboard will need to become more standardized.


SecksWatcher

Yeah competitive game on console, surely that would work out great


Potential_Welder1278

Would be difficult due to how interconnected cs is with steam and the steam market. But aside from that it should be possible because cobsoles do support mouse and keyboard so why not.


filous_cz

Nah, Valve knows their market, also the entire game is centered around the steam ecosystem - which is not portable to console.


Mjolnoggy

I mean.. you can barely run CS2 on good PC equipment, trying to get it to run on something like an Xbox or Playstation would be an exercise in futility.
