It has been years since I gamed regularly but my brother and I were probably some of the best at a particular FPS. It has to be about 15+ years ago. When we played in the physical presence of others we noticed that we were some of the only ones to turn the display settings way down while keeping resolution the maximum. Probably 800x600 or 1280x1024 in those days. The game ran smoother, and the less complex textures made movement standout.
- dragontamer 6y agoPeople are playing CS:Global Offensive because its a smoother, less complex texture compared to other modern games (ie: Overwatch). I'd dare say that the "serious" FPS players stick to Counterstrike, and other easier-to-render games with 200+ FPS. (even if the monitor doesn't support it, the higher FPS results in smoother gameplay and fewer hiccups). There's of course a huge casual crowd playing Overwatch, PUBG and Fortnite. But CS tournaments remain a thing to this day.

- rcarmo 6y agoQuake(world) and Quake III Arena matches were often frantic twitchfests between blurry, nearly flat textured models :)
- mgr86 6y agoNo, but in 2002/3 we would play Quake during our CCNA classes every now and again instead of class work. The hardware was old so it was the original quake. I played a lot of MOHAA[0].
