CS:GO to get item drops similar to DOTA 2 & TF2

Perhaps it will also go Free to play. If it does it's a sad day for me again indeed. I bought the game paying full price and I get a "proof of purchase" item for my monies worth.

Please no 'free to play' counter strike OMW... PLEASE don't do it I'm begging you.

Please do it, please please I beg of you.
Because of my boss I now rather enjoy Counterstrike and cannot get hold of GO until I get my bank card sorted. It won't run on any of their machines but it will run nicely one mine and that will make my colleagues jealous and I want that :p
So free to play would be awesome indeed.
 
nothing is wrong with F2P but I'm sure the people who bought it wont be very happy that the game they paid for is now free for everyone... at least I got it for like 50% off in the sale :D and if it goes F2P then the servers will be flooded with More people although I wouldn't mind some new noobs to pwn :p

As someone who has paid for the game it wouldn't bother me. I would be pretty happy just to see more people play it.

TF2 used to be fun but after it went F2P there were just too many guns it became too unbalanced for my liking.

That has nothing to do with the F2P model. If it is the case, its the fault of the development team. Just look at Dota 2, nothing you get in the drops affects the gameplay, all cosmetic, if hypothetically CS became F2P I'm fairly certain it would follow Dota 2s method.

Hmm, Dota 2 F2P works because the core dynamic doesn't change, however TF2 it wasn't just hats it was guns and items which change your character to make them faster etc. CS go camos is fine as long as they don't start having items which affect the gameplay of your character or new guns which you can only buy off store etc.
 
Nope. Screw It, I played through 5 map rotations and got nothing, I'm calling it bugged for now.

It works on an invisible timer. No one knows their timer and it may be different to someone else. However, the more you play the less drops you get and then it resets each week. The drops are given at the end of a round but that doesn't mean more rounds equal more drops.

But thats my point, there is nothing wrong with F2P, but rather how its implemented.

Sorry for the thread necro but I just had to share my joy for these new item drops.. I just made $22 selling a weapon skin so this game has already paid for itself and some more... :D
