GGL: Complexity recently announced that it would be returning to Counter-Strike 1.6 competition. What is the impetus behind this decision?
JL: I’d be lying to the community if I didn’t say we always preferred 1.6. I’ve come out publicly and said point blank that it is a better game when it comes down to the game play. Unfortunately, the graphics don’t keep up and Valve refuses to update Source’s game play.
My guys love 1.6. They’ve come to really enjoy Source, but they love 1.6. Our loyalty as professional gamers will always be to the big show. The CGS is the big show and I believe it’s the future of gaming. So we’d much rather play Source, than not play Counter-Strike at all. But we’re very excited that the CGS gave us permission to play 1.6. As a manager I’m very worried our fan base will compare our 1.6 playing level to that of 2004-2006. In reality my players haven’t touched this game for a year and a half. We’re playing this because we love the game. I don’t think we can beat EG or X30 because our loyalty remains with Source, because we’re businessmen. My deepest fear is that our fan base will expect great things when we’re just playing for the love of the game.
GGL: In what future competitions might we see Complexity?
JL: We’re going to do the WCG online qualifiers. We’re also speaking with CEVO about playing both Source and 1.6. We’d also be happy to play in any events that GotFrag might have in the future. As long as we can afford to go, we will show up at any future qualifiers. We’re not LAN dodgers, but at some point when you’re playing a game for fun money does come into the equation. We’ll do out best to keep our fans entertained with as much Counter-Strike we can humanly provide. They need to understand that toward the end of the year we’ll have to stop playing 1.6 to get back to playing Source full-time because that’s our bread and butter.
#8 You brag about being better at a video game then someone els, nerd? Source is a terrible game, no high team in source actually likes the game, they only play it for the money, as JL said, get your head out of your ass and stop backing up a terrible game; it's just a matter of time before all teams follow what coL has done and eventually move back over. Rofl at your face you ugly pile of trash.

Yeah, you're right #9. Optx (minus Grt maybe) hate source. I know for a fact that mOE would rather go back to playing cal-im in 1.6.
I like how you try to put him down for saying he's better than someone at a video game but you just tried to call him ugly. Your mind must be pretty skewed.
yawn, this topic is beating a dead horse. Can we just drop it?
#16 its not a matter of the fact they want to play source they just play it for the money for the most part. i mean hell if i got offered money to play a bad game i would. why not? right?
#16 most of USA top teams, which is not all teams, and also you can't say x30 or EG aren't top teams, they are :)
And talking about years.. Source is not a 2 years old game, its been there for long, and it took 2 years to get "some" attention.
Release Date: Nov 1, 2004
2008 and still underdog, you know how hardware market is growing, probably they can't wait much longer.
But im not blaming the community, just Valve who has the chicken of the gold eggs (counter-strike, not just 1.6 or source) and doesn't care about it as they should, maybe some gameplay updates?
#7 meaning they are gonna suck even worse than they do now. playing 1.6 isnt gonna help them in source in any way, thus limiting them in obtaining high placings in the cgs source ranks. as of now, they are in the middle of the pack. playing 1.6 will bring them to bottom which is where they like to be as of late.

worse : you are worse than me so choose to flame.
source : a game you can't handle so flame.
I like how you try to put him down for saying he's better than someone at a video game but you just tried to call him ugly. Your mind must be pretty skewed.
yawn, this topic is beating a dead horse. Can we just drop it?
CGS/Source is horrible, easy & $shitty
ive said it from day once, source/cgs will fail
everyday, one more step is taking into that direction
Can't wait till it fails & grumbles, now CGS letting ppl play 1.6, bringing in 1.6?
BAHABAHABA scrubs
How long is everyone going to be saying this? You said it 2 years ago and all the top teams still play source.
most of USA top teams, which is not all teams, and also you can't say x30 or EG aren't top teams, they are :)
And talking about years.. Source is not a 2 years old game, its been there for long, and it took 2 years to get "some" attention.

keep the 1.6 garbage in the 1.6 forums fa ggot.
ammiright?
