"How Team17 plans to bring Worms into the world of eSports"

Why can't we just have "Global Offensive" version of WA ? Like, just make it on a new engine with a bunch of new stuff that make the game better but doesn't change the core gameplay...

personally I wouldn't want quality loss for the sake of popularity. I never played CS:GO but I know that it's poorer than original CS in terms of skill, e.g. the players who moved to CS:GO lost some of their skills.
T17 were trying to do what you're asking for with WMD and it turned out to be not better than a flash game.
WA is still being developed. just be patient man

Then let someone played all counter-strike games (except cz lmao) tell you that CSGO is far better than 1.6 in term of gameplay. CS 1.6 have more mobility and the weapon spray is more wild, everything is wallbangable which is ridiculous. Nothing is loss when you go from 1.6 to GO, in fact, you have to learn a lot more about smoke and flashes ( only spray control is a bit easier, but that is somewhat more convenient, you rarely spray in 1.6 )
That's just a part of it.

You still can do wallbang in CSGO, just with certain weapons and thin/weak material. When i say nothing is loss i meant the skill and all that - CSGO is less mobility compare to 1.6 mean you'll need to get better at positioning yourself on the map, plus, if you know bhop it will give you some advantages. Weapon spray less wild will increase the reliability, the randomness in 1.6 weapon is just absurb.

Then you're not playing the right game - i can easily name any Valve's game made after 2006. I don't play a lot but what you said is wrong.

you sound like a Valve fanboy. the world doesnt revolve around Valve man!
This is probably the most definitive guide to games that I know. And 80% of the games from that book are made before 2006.

[Sensei]

Why are you fighting over that? We all know W:A eats for breakfast all games included in previous posts!
Should be overwhelmed with the fact you're good in only game where it matters!

I don't sound like a Valve fanboy, i am a Valve fanboy - they make good f@#!ing game, well they use to make games. Also, that doesn't make what i said mean world revolve around Valve, it's just a proof that "every game made after 2006 is shit" wrong.

Where did I say that "every game made after 2006 is shit"? I said that it's just the most of them... I enjoy some of these 'supernew' games myself, but mostly indies. New or late games for me would be 90s games.

don't you know that video games history started over 50 years ago? the golden era of PC gaming was with the DOS games imo

[TheKomodo]

The best days of gaming, especially online gaming, are well and truly gone.

The attitude / mindset of the millenial generation in general is terrible, the direction gaming has taken since around 2006 deeply frustrates and disappoints me

I am the kind of person who openly accepts and gets excited about change every once in a while, but just like everything else in the world gaming is becoming spoiled and ruined by greedy corporations and companies whose main priority is making profits while love and passion for creating fun and educational games slowly becomes less and less important.

F**k anyone on planet Earth who supports modern style DLC.

You guys can have it, you deserve it way more than I do.

i play quite a lot of NES game as kid with my buddy on a console but DOS game were quite a few ( spending most PC gaming time with starcraft, AoE and CS ) 
i don't value nostalgia - to music is maybe but the oldest game im still playing is WA
