Why is there nothing mentioning 1.6 or anything like that? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.46.209.18 ( talk) 02:23, 23 May 2014 (UTC)
Proposing Counter-Strike Neo, Counter-Strike Nexon: Zombies, Counter-Strike Online, Counter-Strike Online 2 be merged into Counter-Strike (series). Each of these titles is lacking significant coverage to stand as a separate article. I think it would be better to consolidate them into the series article. -- The1337gamer ( talk) 09:51, 9 July 2015 (UTC)
The result of the move request was: page moved. Izno ( talk) 13:22, 17 June 2016 (UTC)
...So, with that being said, should the series page be moved to the base title? Steel1943 ( talk) 15:47, 16 June 2016 (UTC)"
...If a video game series has a naming conflict solely with the first game in the series (e.g., Final Fantasy), the series page should reside at the primary name if the series possesses a minimum of 3 video game articles as well as at least one other unrelated video game or related media item. Otherwise, the first game in the series should occupy the primary name, and the series article should be disambiguated with "... (series)"."
I noticed that Counter-Strike's (the game, not the series) release date changes depending on which page you are. On the page about the series ( /info/en/?search=Counter-Strike), it says: "First release: Counter-Strike, June 19, 1999". If you click on that link and go to Counter-Strike (video game), the release date is now November 8, 2000. According the game's Steam page ( http://store.steampowered.com/app/10/), the release date is November 1, 2000. Which one is correct? — Preceding unsigned comment added by LuukB ( talk • contribs) 20:42, 8 February 2017 (UTC)

The first version of Counter-Strike that was published was a HalfLife Mod Beta version, developed by Valve software along with the creators Minh Le and Jess Cliffe, who used John Carmack and Michael Abrash Quake engine that Id software developed, This game was released back in June 1999. by Valve and the world's best counterstrike players at the time were 2 Danish players named MAXE and Tuborg. In 2003, a version was released for Xbox, and in the spring of 2004, Valve published Counter-Strike: Condition Zero, which in addition to updated graphics and playability introduced a single player part. Later that year, Valve also released Counter-Strike: Source, which, unlike the old versions of the game, built on Half-Life 2 and thus the new source engine. 185.5.166.210 ( talk) 10:47, 26 February 2019 (UTC)
Okay, sorry if I update this talk-section somehow wrong, but I'd just like to prove some of you were wrong, and my update for the publish date was correct. I corrected that the CS 1.0 was published on 8th November of 2000 - after that, someone reverted it back to "9th November of 2000" and saying "9th is correct", reason for the revert firstly was simply that I didn't provide sources for the correct date - and the 9th November is "correct" by sources: The sources pointed to publish date does not even mention anywhere the date or time when it was published! The source says: "By Trey Walker on November 9, 2000 at 3:09PM PST" Trey Walker made news about game being published on November 9. He does not mention anywhere the time or date for game actually being published. The November 9, 3:09 PM is date and the time for the news of Tray Walker - not for the game being published. Okay, next, lets check the game version 1.0, when it was actually published - not the date of news.
Source 1 for CS 1.0 being published on November 8, 2000: https://counterstrike.fandom.com/wiki/Counter-Strike_patches Source 2 for CS 1.0 being published on November 8, 2000: https://joliesjunk.wordpress.com/2012/10/11/the-history-of-counter-strike/ Source 3 for CS 1.0 being published on November 8, 2000: https://liquipedia.net/counterstrike/Counter-Strike_patches
So.. How about you check the information which is correct and not just assume you are right - when you clearly was at wrong, before reverting the corrected information back to wrong one and just saying "is correct" - without sources being showed how it is correct. If you ask why I did just not update the correct information and add sources into source section - The answer is simply: Because you just deny the rights from me doing it by putting this page in Semi-Protected mode. Best Regards - Mikko, fan of Counter-Strike series. — Preceding unsigned comment added by MikkoMuhis ( talk • contribs) 17:20, 8 August 2019 (UTC)
I am not sure if there should be redirects for the game's fictional terrorist organizations, e.g. Phoenix Connexion, Arctic Avengers. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rafplayz001 ( talk • contribs) 19:34, 4 December 2019 (UTC)
I initially undid this edit because I googled the game and found sources calling it a mod, but I just realized it has its own section in the article (and those sources call it a game). I'm still rather inclined to keep the infobox to main series-releases, but I'm bringing it up here in case we want to have a discussion about whether spin-offs should count as being in the series for the purpose of the infobox. Generally, reliable sources talking about the CS series are only refering to three or four games, depending on CS:CZ, so I would think that should govern?
