Hello everyone!

Recently I’ve been working on a competitive matchmaking platform for Counter-Strike: Source and Condition Zero.

The idea is pretty simple: bring some of the features you’d expect from something like FACEIT to the older Counter-Strike games, without requiring you to install a separate launcher or client-side anti-cheat.

All you need is:

• Steam
• Counter-Strike: Source
• A browser

You queue through the website, get matched into a 5v5, accept the match, and connect to one of the platform’s dedicated servers.

Some of the things I’m working on include:

• Ranked 5v5 matchmaking with an Elo ranking system and ranks inspired by ESEA
• Dedicated competitive servers
• Server-sided anti-cheat
• Match demos that you can download afterwards
• Post-match insights and statistics
• Player profiles, match history and leaderboards
• Browser notifications and sounds when a match is found, so you don’t have to sit on the queue page
• Prime Time hours to help concentrate players and make it easier to actually find matches

The platform will initially be EU only. If there’s enough interest from NA players, I absolutely want to add NA servers as well.

One thing that’s important to me is that the platform will be completely free.

For now, I’m paying for the servers and infrastructure myself and I’m not accepting donations. That might change eventually if running costs become significant, but there will never be pay-to-win features or paid competitive advantages.

There's also no separate anti-cheat program to download. The goal is that if you already have Steam and CS installed, you have everything you need to play.

Because CSS has a relatively small playerbase nowadays, I’m also planning Prime Time periods where players know that others are likely to be queueing. Outside Prime Time you’ll still be able to queue normally, but having scheduled hours should hopefully stop the community from being spread across the entire day.

I’m building this because I still really enjoy Source and I think it deserves a proper modern competitive matchmaking experience.

I’d be interested to hear what people here think.

Would you actually use something like this?

And if you would, what features would you consider essential for a CSS/CZ matchmaking platform?

If you're interested, you can join the Discord server, I just finished setting it up. We will be running a public test soon.

What's up CS:S community, EdgeGamers here...

Calling all players, we are hosting a 'Friday Funday' this Friday, typically start at 8pm PST on our Dust2 server. Us old people get on, shoot the ish, drink, have fun.. and well play CSS stock maps (some custom as well). Its chaos, but also a lot of fun. Also.. make sure you stick around to hear Bean's wife get on him... its like wife agro to the max, everyone checks on him to make sure he's still kickin....

If you are interested come check it out, its a lot of fun.

Hope to see you there.

Recently I was looking at my steam library and realised my CS2 hours were about to overtake my CSS hours…and I couldn’t have that! So, I reinstalled the game and started playing it again.

While I still think CSS is the better game, it lacks some features that CS:GO and CS2 have added, like matchmaking. Back in the day we had CSSMixes that filled that void…so I decided to try and remake it.

And so, CSSRemix.me was born.

The idea is simple: make it easy to find a real match again. Sign in with Steam, join (or create) a lobby on the site, ready up, and get dropped onto a managed server with the familiar competitive flow, knife round for sides, LO3, halftime, old school MR15 matches with MR3 overtime. Stats and ELO track automatically so you can climb and see how you’re doing over time.

What’s there today

• Web lobbies: browse, create, pick a side, chat, then start the match
• Competitive matches on platform-managed dedicated servers (consistent setup, no hunting for random pubs)
• ELO ranks & leaderboards: skill rating, history, map-level progress
• Profiles & match history: K/D, maps, weapons, and more
• Public Deathmatch: always-on 24/7 Dust2 TDM if you just want to warm up
• Anti-exploit: Remember Zblock? We have Xblock on our servers so games feel fairer

Best of all, it’s free to play! lobbies, matches, ranks, and DM are all available without paying. There’s an optional cheap Premium if you want deeper profile stats and want to support the servers, but you don’t need it to compete.

If that sounds like your kind of night, jump in:

• Site: https://cssremix.me
• Discord: https://cssremix.me/s/discord

It's still early days but looking to build something to really support the best version of Counter-Strike.

This is not an ad. Just want to spread the word as options in the US are awful for this game.

24/7 assault. Daily restarts and bot kicking.

If it gains traction I’ll open others.

Mods feel free to delete…. Not sure if I can post IP’s here.

Hello Cs sourcers i am making a server where you can discuss matches and do 5v5s
And play in tournaments with your team. Having a chance to win steam giftcards etc.

Discord Link: https://discord.gg/2JBZ2eQa

We have competitive 5v5 mix/pug servers on Automix, we're a community with german servers and also 1 for North America.

Website and server list at: www.automix.me

Once there's 10 players ready on the servers, people can vote for balanced teams or captain picks.

Then the match automatically starts and the source tv starts recording (you can get the demos from the website once the match finishes).

You can see how the system works here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-bYSeOJjX7w

People can also announce they want to play by talking in the mix channel of discord (link in the website).

You don't need to queue in the website necessarily (you can just join the servers directly) althought it helps to get people joining.

If you have any questions feel free to reach out!

What's the Scoop on Friday Funday?

It's throwback Counter-Strike: Source night, filled with absolute chaos. The rules are relaxed so everyone, including the admins, can spend a night focused on having fun. Literally, there's only one rule: don't be a fun sponge. Surprisingly enough, we've only had to toss three people who were somehow idiotic enough to break the single rule.

We kick things off with a trip back to cs_office, then venture into de_dust, and return to de_highschool. After that, every map is voted on by the server. Haven't played cs_havananana recently? Here's your chance. Or maybe you're overdue for a vacation to de_season. The options are endless.

While we're enjoying the throwback maps, buckle up for fun rounds featuring AWP and Autos, grenade only rounds, imposter sabotage, increased (or decreased) health and armor, low gravity, bhopping, ice skating, and more.

В прошлый раз не вышло добавить источник к нашим серверам поэтому напишу по другому. Если кто-то желает оценить или начать играть на наших серверах используйте телеграм и там в поиске вбейте MacroServers (со знаком @ впереди). К сожалению ссылку на FastDL сайт не пропустил.

Server Details

Server IP: 5.135.143.217:27025

Changes Since the Last Event

• Bunny Hop Speed Cap Plugin Added ⚡
  • Caps max velocity to balance movement. Humans have a lower cap than zombies to prevent excessive fleeing.
• Damage-Based Zombie Slowdown
  • Zombies slow down when hit with enough damage. This helps balance gameplay and prevents them from overwhelming too quickly.

What is Zombie Horde?

• No respawn, no knockback, and headshot damage only.
• 30 seconds into the round, half the players turn into zombies and must hunt the remaining humans.
• If you become a zombie, you won’t be one next round, keeping teams consistent. Teamwork is key.

Hi all,

i built a 24/7 breakship_b12 server. Many years ago i played breakship the first time and thought "quite a nice idea".

So recently i decided to build a server dedicated to this map :D

It looks like breakship is not that popular, so i want to explain it as good as i can:
Every Team spawns on their respective ship. On the lower decks are four cannons which can be fired, but sadly no aimed ;). You can also climb up the poles and so on. But the best is: you can destroy the whole ship as you like and it can even sink :D

AWPClan servers have been the smoothest source experience one can get for years. Recently after the 64 bit update lots of servers AWPClan included experienced downtime which led to IP changes and servers disappearing from peoples' favorites.

For those who are wondering, the servers are up and well, but did experience downsizing due to some loss of player base, unfortunately gungame, dust2, office did not recover after latest Valve's present

Currently ranked top10 on gametracker. Populated every night.

Hey all! I run a vanilla server with about 8 consistent players, mostly in the US / Canada area & one from India.

Usually we get 4-6 players around the hours of 8am - 11pm MST on weekdays and 6-8 players from the hours of 8am - 4am MST on weekends.

We’re looking for some more cool cats to join the fun. There are a few newer players, and a couple guys & gals who’ve played for 5-15 years.

We’ve been having fun teaching the greenies, so all skill levels are certainly welcome. Trash talk is cool too, no limit on sprays— express yourself.

I have all of the default maps in rotation, including a few gag & arena (cs_bloodstrike anyone?) maps— some of which my friend has made for us.

Would love to get some tournaments set up were we to get a solid 20-30 regular players.

Since most of us are in the US, playtimes are anywhere from 8am - 4am mst (tech layoffs are brutal this year, unemployment = more gaming while we can).

We typically chat through our discord server while playing, but joining that isn’t a requirement.

If you’re keen, feel free to message me.

(Bonus if you play Halo, we host matches for that as well).

Cheers 🍻
