I know some people who did that because their server was dying. It happens in france. France have almost no more modded server who run steam with players on it. And openning a steam one, without an international goal is pure suicide.

the only advantage steam only has is that you can ban players and not have them come back
with the game being free, what would stop them from making new accounts every time they get banned?

think about that

That happends on every free game, so what u just said isnt news, the thing is that you can IP ban someone instead

no you can't
at least over here 95% of people have dynamic ip, so that's one router reset for another ip and very high chances for a legit player to get a banned ip for nothing

Well, as i said, it isnt news, every free game has this problem (as far as i know).

This thread seems more like a thread to justify non-steam.
Yes CZ is dieing, yes 1.6 is about to die soon enough. Don't blame it on game's price, blame it on steam that made udpates that screwed up a lot of clients games and basickly forced them to buy cs:go since they couldnt play 1.6 anymore.

I owned 1.6 but can't see any differences between steam and non-steam.
All of servers in my country and nearby area are non-steam.

because they need players.

Then... why should they remove it later?
EVERYONE using p47 DID NOT download the never cracked version. Why? Read my last but one post again and you will see the error in your logic.
