State of Crossfire(Analysis)

In my opinion crossfire is at a horrible state and heading down an even more horrible path. In a couple years crossfire is going to be a HUGE joke such as games we all know and hate: Solider Front, Warrock and many others. This game is going to soon be those games if something doesn't change. Take LoL for example, any uses that spend money on that game have no advantage over players that don't. It tops Counter-Strike, Starcraft 2, and World of Warcraft in ESL and beats World of Warcraft in x fire as the top game and was named the game of the year by MMOHUT, AND it has balance patches every week. Anyone that has an argument to that just remember that League of Legends(LoL) is a very successful game, way more than cf, and yet imbalance isnt an issue. Instead of releasing horribly unbalanced guns lets see balance patches fixing obvious problems like gun imbalance, character imbalance, bugs and random client errors and the list goes on. I really love this game and I hate it to go to waste and be considered and absolute joke like others.

ok people are floodin the comments about character imbalance, and obviously they use spops :) but in a seriousness i know they have the same hitboxes duhhh thats not what im argueing about. how do you obtain these characters? zp/real money. and what if someone who wants to play for FREE (hint hint Free To Play?!?!) and then runs into characters like these and has no way to obtain them? THAT IS CALLED IMBALANCE. so go ahead the hitboxes are the same flame the comments, but i want to see a decent arguement.

    then dont play. theres no need to flame about it
  • just saying but...LoL is nowhere near the status of SC2

    and you really didn't explain how this game is "heading down", and CHARACTER IMBALANCE?! "LoL", all the characters have the same hit box.

    what i read about this thread is that you're boasting LoL
  • What i meant about character imbalance is ths spops ans whatnot, crossfire is notorious for terrible hit boxes and registry so having a character that is smaller and harder to aim at is totally unfair.
  • im not flaming its constructive critisism :)
  • and one more thing i didnt say that LoL was better that SC2 i meant that it was a top ESL E sports title next to SC2 and counter strike my bad
  • Did someone put a gun to your head and told you to play this game?
    Every other free to play FPS ive played sucks majorly compared to crossfire.
    All i read in your post was you talking about how much better you think LoL is then CF.
    First: Its OPINION, different style games fit different people. Just because the game is more successful doesn't mean its better. Its what people think.
    Second: Its not CF's fault that other people Lag. nor is it their fault the community sucks. Its the community's problem.
    In my opinion, crossfire is still a better game then any other because its just more fun( the layout of the game) I can actually tell where the soldier is. Other games are simply over-packed with to much detail.

    there's something called edit, you should look into that.

    character imbalance really? out of all the things wrong with CF you talk about character imbalance? THEIR HIT BOXES ARE THE SAME!
  • thats not what i meant at ALL. ok let me try to explain this LoL is a free game but the fact that you spend money on it doenst give you unfair advantages. it was an example becuase most peoples arguements is they need to make money so thats why they release these unbalanced guns and characters and not everything is the communitys fault, bugs client errors, ping issues, gun imbalance is z8games failing to asses them not the players.

    Did you just compare CF to LoL? Are you stupid? Are you also one of those people that may aswell marry a picture of the damn game... because your so far up its ass... LoL is this and LoL gets this, LoL is so great and wonderful and theres nothing wrong with it at all.

    The main part of your post is "In my opinion." Its your opinion... noone gives a toss about it.



    Please explain the benefit ZP buyers have over non paying players... dont say guns... because +5 ammo is hardly an unbalanced buff.

    I havent bought ZP in 2 years... I use GP guns and do pretty well with them. You dont need ZP to play good in this game... Which is why leagues ban ZP weapons. So your argument is invalid.

    The m4 and the AK are better then most ZP guns in the game. You just need to know how to use them.
    There is also a free ZP option. It just takes time.
    Alot of problems people get are because of slow computers. For example when i had a bad computer i would always load slow and get errors. Now that im on a good computer everything works fine.
    There is no difference in characters. get it through your head.
    Guns here are the most balanced that ive seen in a game. They actually take skill to use( although there are some guns that don't fit that category).
  • People said that this would happen to Crossfire two years ago, it is still going fine imo.

    yeah indeed!

    First of all, you cannot compare crossfire and league of legends because their two different genres...

    The LoL community is probably bigger than the SC2 community even though both games are highly popular.

    i clearly said STATUS rakesh, SC2 is the top game to compete in with progamers making 100k+
    USD just purely off of tournament earnings, not including their salary and sponsors
  • CrossFire and League of Legends have completely different themes (LARPG vs. FPS) and forms of game play. Some people like pressing keys some people like to aim.

    The other games you mentioned cost money to play.

    CF IMO is the best games on the internet for people who don't spend money. Any skilled player can dominate a ZP player. ZP players get a little bit more useless junk whoses only use is to show off. (I admit they sometimes save your life.)

    I've said before, you can get a lot of great stuff with skill. For example ZM rewards: Kris, Gatling Gun....

    I can see CF doing something stupid occasionally, but it's not that bad. I don't think its been going down hill for the past year. Yes the community is horrible but whose fault is that?
  • want a Spop and aren't willing to drop cash to support the game you supposedly like?
    ->free zp offers.

    I've gotten close to 2K usd worth of ZP from there by now.

    What? How?! That's like 2.5 million ZP!

    M12 is the most OP gun in the game, and it's not zp.
    Scar Light, M4, AK, and AWM powerful enough to fight zp guns.

    However melee weapons are ZP only. No wonder few people play GM.
  • Stop complaining . The game is good how it is right now .

    I disagree about the m12. Sure it's very OP but not the most.
    The advantages of silence M4 put it on the same level as one if not higher
    & then there exists full wall bang version of them which are the most OP.

    M12 can easily outgun any other gun by virtue of its ultra-lightweight, large magazine, high accuracy/little recoil, high firing rate, plus fairly low noise. It can drop an enemy with a quick spread.

    It is not just full wallbang or 1 headshot long distance.

    Last time I checked.. Steam counts by hours.. where as Xfire counts by mins. Dota2 BETA (don't forget that part) I believe beats it.
  • The only im balance in this game is armour.

    If you are good at this game, spops, zp weapons mean nothing to you.
