What's the exact problem? Describe it.
Which server have you tried? and And what's the cs version you'r using?

I once faced a similar problem, switching to v32 did the job. I can PM you the torrent link if you want.
Maybe, it's the sxe issue.

Hmm master server problem. I'm going to guess that you're planning to host your own server (?).
In case you're not then, master server has nothing to do with clients it's a server side parameter.

Sadly there aren't any pk servers for Counter Strike Source.
It's only that those who wana play it, that group of friends make their own server and play when they get all together.


btw I didn't liked cs:s <__<

Here's the solution:
  • Go to this site http://css.setti.info/code/masterserver/
  • Save that file "MasterServers.vdf" where ever you want
  • After you have saved it, copy and paste to this directory "Counter Strike 1.6/cstrike/platform/config"

    So while Playing Control, I found a journal which said that a bathroom is missing in Islamabad Beurue of Control. With Alan Wake and Control seems to be connected worlds. Even our city is in the universe as well. No wonder those Trail 5 and Trail 6 are haunted.
    did you know you can see @NaNoW credited in the game too ? :p

    What is peoples obsession with Battle Royale genre. 6 minutes to find a match, 3 minutes to setup a match, 2 minutes to land, 10 minutes for scavanging maybe 2 3 gunfigts and its over. Multiplayer landscape is looking absolute dogshit.
    I tried playing Apex Legends once. Couldn't find a gun for 5 minutes straight. If I found a gun, I couldn't find the right ammo for it. Got killed fighting with my fists. Uninstalled it the next day.

    I usually stay away from animes. Vinland saga changed the way i look at my life, and my experiences within. I recommend every breathing human being to watch this animated masterpiece at least once fromstart to finish.
    After I watched it, I never felt like i watched a show. It was a friggin journey. I got way too attached to Thorfinn and seeing him grow up and find himself and get rid of all the negativity inside of him was just pure bliss.

    With how great cod warzone has translated onto mobile. Mainstream Consoles have lost its value even further. Maybe console gaming was associated with TVs and how TV is not the primary source of media consumption anymore, consoles will lose its 200 million core audiences even further.
