...that doesn't feel quite right.

I've applauded the creators of Counter-Strike: Global Offensive for their willingness to do what Valve seemed to be scared of doing years ago. By that I mean that they've actually added to the Counter-Strike formula with the addition of some new modes as part of the new Arsenal game type. Encompassing both Arms Race and Demolition, Arsenal has a little variety compared to what we’re used to. Despite me pining for variety in Counter-Strike, there are a couple of things which leads to disappointment toward the modes. Put simply, Arsenal needs a little work before it can flourish.

Though the latest iteration of the widely acclaimed Counter-Strike franchise is trying to give the series a kick in the backside with tweaks, new additions and a general breathe of fresh air, not all of CS:GO is pleasant. Granted the following gripes may seem particularly nitpicky, but that said, any Counter-Strike player will tell you that the slightest change can make all the difference in the world.
