Maybe because there not greedy ass mofos like the ppl over at EA lol nah probably because they couldn't charge 50 bucks for game, not many ppl would buy it. I think they should have set it at 19.99. I still would have bought it.

Indeed. I thought it would at least be $20-$30

The only reason its 15 is because its just a mulitplayer title it's not a big singleplayer -multiplayer title

That really doesn't make any sense...but ok.

If they want to sell hats, I won't buy'em.

It's probably cheaper because it's basically CS:S revisited. Some new additions, and much better graphics, but basically CS:S.

I'll be getting it on day 1. From what I have played in the BETA, I like it, and think it will go-over pretty well here.

But... it is a complete game. A game doesn't have to have a single player mode to be complete. That just means it is completely focused on multiplayer, so it doesn't have to be dumbed down.

Merge with the other topic?

Definitely still work to be done on it, but I think the gameplay you experience (hopefully) without the random glitches, bugs, and quirky lag spikes is basically what you're gonna get for $15.
