No. -_-

I know of know FPS where you need to p2p, partly because players put up the servers or buy the servers. Technically, if you want to buy a server that doesn't suck, you have to pay for that, but that's basically it.

goto steampowered.com, make an account, buy game, play forever.
Note if you hack or play on cracked servers, steam will ban your ip address, and your account for 1 year.

Ya and I bet your VAC status is horrible. You connect to cracked servers through steam, they know.

There's like 100's of non-steam servers you can play on, not just 20. It's a bit harder to find a server you'd like but it's still good. I might buy CS though cuz now that I have a job, wasting $10 is like nothing.

Lol, I bought the Source pack at Circuit City for $20 to get CS:S, DoD:S, and HL2:Deathmatch.

And zammylegend, no there are three versions of CS. Original, 1.6, and Source.

you dont pay to play on servers. you pay for steam to host a server for you, so you dont have to run it from your comp

and Condition zero is just an upgraded counter strike

Your saying that I need to buy the game, then after that I need to play more money to steam, so they can put me in the server?
