it's to much work, rewriting the engine, everything from scratch, even the plugins, all of them would have to be rewritten, plus it would be illegal, without valve written consent.
you are not the first to think this, not even close, this idea has been around for over 10 years and never seen anything done, i have seen big topic about this a while ago, and didn't work out!

Maybe this time we should do it minimal. Like pure cs1.6 de_ + minimal metamod support + really simple map.
We shouldn't try to fulfil all functions, even simpler function like chat, dropping guns, throw grenades can be ignored in first place. We can focus just gun play. It's a big work, but we don't have to make it bigger.
Imagine 64 players in dust2! How cool is that? Who cares if you can't chat or dropping guns?
And about the whole 'it's not worth it' thing, these topic are meaningless. Sure cs1.6 is old and unmaintained , you can tell me to create with better engine like unreal, unity or sth. But basically you can deal with every thread with that answer.
