Australian / OCE CS 1.6 Community — 600+ Players, Nightly 5v5 Ranked Matches

For anyone in Australia, New Zealand or the wider OCE region still playing Counter-Strike 1.6 — CS 1.6 OCE is the established Australian 1.6 community and has been running for over 12 years.

We currently have 600+ members and still play proper competitive CS 1.6 regularly.

What we run:

🎯 Nightly 5v5 Ranked Matches / PUGs
🇦🇺 Australian servers with low ping
📊 Player rankings and stats
🔫 Deathmatch servers
🎮 Funmaps / casual games
🏆 Online tournaments and occasional LAN events
👥 Players ranging from old-school Australian competitive players to people returning to 1.6 after many years

If you played Australian CS back in the day, there’s a good chance you’ll recognise people here.

There has recently been some confusion after a separate group advertised itself as a new Australian CS 1.6 community. We just want people searching for Australian 1.6 to know that the existing OCE community is still here, active, and playing regularly.

New and returning players are absolutely welcome. If you haven't played in 10–20 years, don't worry — plenty of people have come back recently.

If you're in Australia/NZ and miss proper 1.6 5v5s, come say hello. 🇦🇺🇳🇿

Proof of concept for working first-person view legs like CS2, but in CSGO, just because I felt like it. Kind of janky and need to make more models but it works in vanilla CSGO via a serverside plugin. View development or try it out live on pureCSGO

Just wanted to show off the new Doppler M9 against a couple shitters :)

Finally got the loadout I’ve wanted since the dead hand collection dropped. Doppler M9 and Blackbook Specialists, with a min wear stat trak Neo Noir M4 :)

Uma nova versão Chegou ao Workshop!

Depois da primeira versão, trouxe uma evolução da M4A1-S, mantendo a identidade da skin e levando o visual para um nível ainda mais marcante.

Mais detalhes, mais presença e o mesmo conceito que deu origem à skin.

Hi all, so I don't usually use communications that much. I said something today and it wasn't censored. But when other people type it shows up all the time as *******. Are people self-censoring? I assumed mine would show up as **** Someone mentioned "that wasn't censored" to me.

Thanks

I said "you're fucked for sure" if anyone was wondering.

If you would like to play it is Critical Entry on s&box. Right now it is just dust and dust 2 with new textures, all guns have new textures and also all new operators. Working on adding more maps and going to defiantly change some of the gun textures soon. https://sbox.game/akuji/critical_entry/

I have been looking for it since I saw native non-steam port of HL2 for Mac, and since CSS probably released natively on 2010, I ask you guys, where can I find one?

I'm just wondering, ofc through emulation since native doesn't work anymore

🇦🇺 Australian/OCE servers
⚡ Low-ping games
🗺️ Competitive map pool

We also have KZ, Deathmatch and Retakes available for anyone who wants to warm up, practice, or just play some casual CS between PUGs.

Whether you’ve been playing since 2003 or haven’t touched 1.6 in years, you’re welcome.

We’re looking for Australian/NZ/Asia players who are keen to get some proper 5v5 games happening again and help build an active community.

All latest cs2 news are worrying, the game losing players every month, absolutely zero good news, i question myself everytime i fire up cs2 to play

Nothing is encouraging to play at this point, the game lacks content

Csgo had it's operations, it's fun, danger zone... If you get tired of comp, u can go flying scoutsman or danger zone.

Why are cs2 devs treating us like this?? Even tf2 had a new operation recently.

CS2 with friends is such a good time

I don't even care that we lost just here for the good vibes

STICKER | FATAL ERROR its a PAPER sticker

Another thing that somebody on that post also pointed out is that he rotates through mid with his knife out as if he knows nobody is holding it.

hey everyone! new drop: M4A1-S | FATAL ERROR 🔥

the concept: the source engine's missing texture checkerboard, but treated like a premium finish. glossy anodized magenta vs matte void black, moiré interference inside the black squares that vibrates on camera, and chromatic aberration ERROR stamps that read as light, not stickers.

Anyone can make Counter Strike Global Offensive mod that shows legs like in cs2?

i can help making that mod if possible

Normally i play the game around 200 fps with 1440p ultra settings. But in dm, suddenly fps drops to 70-80. It doesnt happen in matchmaking. I think my system is ok to run the game
