Lembro até hoje de ter ficado até as 3 horas da manha assistindo a BD na final do campeonato mundial. Nunca joguei CF, mas comemorei muito com aquele título
Same here, Bruno. I spent 2 years playing this gams. I used to love the ghost mode because i was too bad to shoot. Good memories. It was the first fps I played a lot.
Crossfire is one of the household FPS name in Indonesia. Even to this day, this and it’s direct rival, Point Blank, is still common to be found among gamers here.
Brazilian here. I used to play this game all day when I was younger. My PC was too bad and couldn't run the first version of CSGO, so crossfire was the alternative. Had tons of fun during the time I was playing. This game will forever be on my heart.
This game was stupid popular when I was still a kid living in China. I was the weirdo who was playing Halo 3 with foreigners online with my friend's Xbox while all my classmates were wondering why I don't play Crossfire if I'm into FPS games.
it was the exact opposite for me here in germany, only one friend of mine who introduced me to the game was playing crossfire, besides that it was (for most of the people) only fifa call of duty or battlefield
This was the most popular FPS Games in the Philippines, I hope they create another game similar to this. I hate how newer FPS games tend to have just 2-3 modes.
I actually remember putting some time into Crossfire when i was younger, mainly because my only PC was a crappy laptop that couldn't run almost anything, CS:GO ran in like 20fps on 800×600. And yes, it's microtransactions were incredibly awful, and the frags did feel satisfying
@@avoidthevo1d not such much back then there was not even pistol only and sniper only back then 2007 xD i was just looking for new game after warrock began to get to much cheaters beta was so funny has ghost in gm u could use a cheat where u can shot wiht the knife xD
Even if they use CFX thing, those Secret Level writters have no Idea so they plainly puts Generic Englishment shooter: Plate carriers, huge biceps and facial beards.
As a german "allmost-pro" in crossfire, let me tell you about some stuff we had to go trough: 1. When Crossfire Europe wasnt released, we had to play on "NA", but we couldnt crouch because the keyboard layouts were programmed so badly, we had to switch to US-Layout, switch the keyboard settings ingame and then switch back. 2. 1000hz polling rate isnt supported, or at least lets your mouse go up and down while aiming left-right. 3. You could click your mouswheel on the scope/right-click button in settings menu, when you played AWM (AWP in csgo) or any other sniper, you could just press shoot button and instantly quickscoped which is btw. very strong in csgo because there is no cooldown of precision. 4. China-Walk was a technique of walking sideways (key A/D) and fastly pressing forward/backward(w/s). It made you faster and people couldnt hear your steps (i think it was possible to switch ws / ad arround. 5. Bunnyhopping was really easy, it was the fastest way to go from A->B and also didnt make noice if done right. 6. you could "high-jump" onto things by hitting jump right before landing, experienced players could easily do it while running whout having to stand infront of the "target". 7. You could glitch into boxes by standing on a corner of a box and slightly fastly going forward/backward and left/right... at some point you just sank into the crate and in some maps this allowed you to go to extremely weird places. 8. Crossfire comp scene started by "forbidding" BP (Bulletproof helmet and vest) which allowed you to dodge a headshot with many weapons (m4), later they allowed to because the m4 was a little too strong, problem is that BP is a real money exclusive, or at least back in the days hard to get. 9. If you aim at a player trough a smoke, the name pops up in red on your crosshair, making it easy to get kills trough smokes. 10. you could avoid fall damage by bunnyhopping. 11. walking of an elevation totally didnt affect your precision, making it very easy to hit insane 360° "Dropshots". (Jumpshots were a little harder, but way easier than csgo f.e.) 12. Many edges let you aim and shoot trough them, this allowed you to kill enemies trough whole buildings with a little timing. 13. there was a error message when: Glitching into boxes, having unstable internet, sometimes random that made your game crash or at least kick you out of the game. Made it very unplayable at some times.
ist das spiel noch aktiv ? sieht aus wie etwas auf das ich bock habe weil ich immer csgo aber mit asiatischem feeling spielen wollte, und wenns aktiv ist wuerd ichs mal ausprobieren
I play crossfire west everyday Everyday I enjoy ghost mode Basically it's for real real real pros Black list ( Ghosts ) can do tricks to move invisible Global risk ( Defenders ) can hear ghost's breath detect and pinpoint them and kill them But if they walk you can see them It's basically an advanced search and destroy mode where ghosts try to plant C4 or kill GR it's so satisfying in an incredible way
I was pretty good at being a Ghost back in the day. I don't know what its called anymore but there's this mechanic that I practiced everyday back then that allows you to jump without revealing yourself.
@@cloudynguyen6527 agreed, since child i think ghost more bringing jumpscare but in reality CS zombie is way more jumpscare no matter how much i play the game compare to crossifire
I miss this game with a passion. There is something so satisfying about the simple graphics, sfx and vfx in this game. I wish more people in NA liked this game, i want to play it, but the NA servers are barren or slot reserved.
I would agree with you if it was 2007 to maybe 2015 version. CrossFire 2.0 is plagued with terrible matches, unbalanced gameplay, god awful map design, netcode issue, etc. GP shop weapons are obsolete. Sure, there is some good stuff in the Mileage shop, but it's still nothing compared to VIP/ZP weapons. Back then, I used to rock with an M16 and Desert Eagle against ZP players and would get called a cheater. Now I need to farm for craft/upgrade for my weapons or buy shit in the black market for coupons to go toe to toe with ZP players. Luckily, I completed an event that earned me an M4A1 Proto; it's overpowered as the VIP/ZP M4s. There's even a character than could cancel sniper recoil by kicking. The CrossFire that we used to know is not there anymore. I miss the time when I could just login and play the game. I fucking hate farming for shit just to get even; I feel miserable playing after coming back 1 month ago. There are far better free-to-play first-person shooters out in the market than this. Since Counter-Strike: Global Offensive is now also free-to-play, there's no point in coming back to CrossFire anymore. Unless you just like its aesthetics.
Switch to Asia server bro literally at least 3 people in the internet cafe play this game all the time. Everyone I know plays or has played crossfire in their life here in Asia 😂
@@Paterq This is not the case. Crossfire has over 500 weapons, over 50 different game modes, over 100 different scenarios, and so on. In terms of content it is far superior to Counter Strike.
@@Paterq But when it is your first game, in 2008 with f2p hay good online server, you can easily enjoy it you know. Especially when you compare with Counter Strike Online.
I love in the Philippines and this game alongside Soldier Front and Point Blank were probably the three biggest free to play FPS back then, now I think it's just Crossfire surviving since computer shops are still alive in the Philippines and again you don't need a beast PC to run this game
Great video. A lot of what you said hits the point. There are some more things you could have mentioned, but i think overall the most important things got mentioned.
Ah yes, I remember playing this FPS with my friends at the internet cafe in front of my school after school 10 years ago. So many played the game that the school directors has to forcefully close the internet cafe (idk how they did it but the cafe closed). So many memories.
I loved this game as a kid. I more grew up on Combat Arms, so my heart really lies with that game. But I'm oddly always attracted to games like Crossfire. The aesthetic, speedy gameplay, and non-english community has fsr become my favorite aspects of Korean-made F2P shooter games. I came to this video after a conversation with a friend. And while it is a shame that this game isn't very playable in the US it seems, I'd still love to give it another try after all these years to see if it's held up in any regard, or if it's not worth it in the US.
Current NA Crossfire player here! Wasn’t expecting to see anything on the game anytime soon, but it’s good to see some attention shone on the scene. It’s very small, but if you play the game, you won’t ever escape. Something alllllways will drive you back.
@@pupuchi5842 the eu server is almost full *during eu peak hours*, though its cap is 3000. Most of it is non snd matches, but u wont struggle to find a game with alot of people. Im from NA too, luckily east coast and only get 86 ping. Still a blast, holds up to games like csgo, if you can get a good connection that is. No other server is alive and people from other regions join us with high ping since the game shutdown in their region, its annoying but i dont blame them for wanting to play a game they love.
@@zip3704 thats great to hear, i used to play the game religiously along with roblox back in 2011-2016 because i had a shitty laptop and thats about everything i could play, along with "Shadowgun:deadzone". Mostly played zombies or snd, had a blast back then. Lets see if i remember my account details lol
as someone living in thailand this is a name i honestly hear way too much. its rlly popular among local kids, mostly the mobile battle royale nowadays tho
Player of month one of Indonesian CF release here: 1. CF didn't take off in here because another korean fps was released before this game called Point Blank. Nevertheless it lived on until 2020 when it was shut down from low CCU, while said game is still strong 2. Continuation from number 2, unfortunately the game was abandoned by the publisher and went into maintenance mode around late 2019 until eventual shut down. 3. We get around P2W weapons by farming more or less same version but from PVE modes, it drops temp weapons that is good enough. And when MP shop came out, we made new accs to farm MPs on so that we get better weapons from shop. As time goes on some P2W weapons, including VIP weapons were given out for free both temporarily and permanently as event weapons, to the extent that P2W players were mad that their rare and or expensive weapon collection is now worthless since everyone who did the event has it.
I played this game a lot with my friends in Canada. I enjoyed it a lot, especially the Ghost game-mode which no other game has managed to recreate. Unfortunately, there was an unchecked hacker problem for far too long, and it made us all quit the game. Lots of good memories of this one though.
I played this growing up, till all of my friends played cs and none of them wanted to give it a try and I finally switched over. Had a good time with it :)
I've played in this one in 2012 and it was a reason why i failed some of my exams in university. I still remember these cool zombie modes, mechanics, maps and how satisfied it was to kill enemies and find a right position on a map. I think only bf3 cranes death match can compare to it in a way of emotions in close combats
It's so interesting to me to see this game covered! I played it for 4 years more or l as daily and for 4 more years every so often. Played scrims, spend all my money into it and made alot of friends with clans and TeamSpeak. Sadly nowadays a pretty trashy game, but it sure holds a special place in my heart!
This game is very popular in asia especially in southeast. Im a filipino and this game is very popular here every kids play this game in local computer shop.
Ghost mode was such an awesome game mode, with a high skill ceilling for both sides, bunnyhopping on the ghost side to be able to blitz around the map literally unseen, and pinpointing from the other side to be able to find them by sound and proximity alone. Its so sad that i tried to get into it again a couple months ago but literally couldnt get a single ghost mode game on NA, you are either from the eastern side of the world or you just cant play.
Ghost mode disappeared from NA server, there was a few ghost mode lobby in the EU but that’s it. I used to play ghost mode a lot, bunnyhopping through the whole map already gives me satisfaction
I have hella memories of ghost mode. Especially on the map with the trains. The mechanic of hearing them by audio and seeing them when they were close was neat.
I just came back to this game and it gave out like 3-4 vips for free, for being a 12 years player and returning rewards are goated. The server might have been so low with players these days i still came back to this game from time to time to enjoy a quick fun.
As a guy who’s a super try hard player in CrossfireX lobbies along with my comrades, it’s really struggling playing one map(Black Widow which takes notes from Dust 2) over and over again with no variety. It’s tiring but we still here and will be here till the game is no more. Hell we waited over 48 days since the March update came out which fixed those imbalances and added more QOL updates you mentioned. Not perfect as more maps are needed which are teased and coming but it’s weird love hate relationship. Want the best for it after the horrible launch and first impression but communication between devs and players is limited. The team wants it be great but they’ll have to live up to their word.
YOU'LL GET CAUGHT UP IN THE... You hear a lot about Crossfire here in Australia given how close we are to Asia. Not players to my knowledge, but a lot of our casters have done Crossfire stuff. Elfishguy and Sandman come to mind.
Im not a semi pro but im playing in lan tournaments too in ph some tournaments they follow the international rule(which is the CFS RULES) about the gun and also the character we just use the default character and default gun(we call it CFS GUNS/CS GUN) but some tournaments they dont but they use the community rules Like Open for all guns but just use male characters. Btw even u have the VIP GUN(Which is you gonna pay with real money) the ak47 still one tap headshot even deagle so
So nostalgic, I remeber going to a internet cafe and playing this in 2008, back then Garena was very popular since Steam didn’t have Pesos and other SEA currency update
Man this bring back so many memories. I remembered that it was so easy to cheat in this game that the internet cafe near my house has the cheats installed in every PC. It was harder to find a lobby without a cheater than ones without. Loved the zombie mode tho
I don't think a lot of people realise that CS 1.6 pretty much spawned an entire sub-genre of FPS. There are a ton of games like Crossfire that were also popular in Asia (although nowhere near as huge) and they all pretty much have the same graphics and gameplay of a more arcade-y, run and gun CS. It was kinda funny to see people malding over Valorant being a cheap CS ripoff when it came out when CS clones have been a thing for over almost two decades.
@@Hi_lm_V the community are equal toxic as Indonesian point blank community from 2009-2018 after many mobile phone brand release with cheap prices, you would never reach 100.000 minimun active player on any single PC games, i wish i could reverse this shithole mobile market to my NA market
American here, I definitely heard of this game and played it all the way back in 2009-2010. Loved ghost mode but I wouldn't go back to it ever because the of the pay to win model. It took tons of hours of grinding just to be able to get a single gun that was better than the starting gun without having to pay real money.
Grew up in this game, there were times that we even escape our parents just to go to a nearby computer shop just to play this. Back then only few have VIP weapons but now it is very common as a result this may sometimes create an imbalance as VIP weapons are much stronger than your classic weapons.
i still remember the times where they had no vip weapons... having an m4 crystal was kind of the best you could have, back in the day, really good times.
What a rollercoaster, was thinking "oh wow it was that popular? cool. oh it's still going? I thought it died like a decade ago, woah still getting invested into? ok ok. oh it's unplayable outside of asia, damn.."
Man I still remember playing this game around 2010 when I lived in China. Pratically everyone in my class and neighbourhood played it. I also remember the best weapons being stupidly expensive lol.
I grew up playing this game as a kid in the US. I didn't have a computer that could run super strong games. I love Crossfire though, and I still come back to it a few times a year.
As someone suffering with a geforce 210 and a core 2 duo this game is pretty much my PC's VALORANT Edit: probably csgo but cs source exists and csgo runs on it albeit dog fps on dog res
My Mom and Dad once own an internet cafe/shop (computer shop) and hell this was one of the games I've always played and never got sick off, there we're tons of fun game modes too unlike FPS games this days which only have few. This is the greatest and will always have special place in my heart. I remember how nice everyone was about the game, the trash talks weren't excessive, and when it is, the trash talks are basically just hilarious (at least in my place back then) I remember people letting me borrow their accounts in the internet cafe when I was a kid and the hype of playing the game more after getting the kill is just, incredible
Since i have been playing crossfire in most of my life im really happy to see a channel like this mentioning it, the game might not be the best well made game there is but it really is fun playing for all these years and its still going on strong till this day in every aspect of it, you might have missed some more in depth stuff but overall your review was on point, really glad you talked about this game!
This was one of the best and one of my most played games of all time. CF NA (the OG) was one of the best experiences I've had. Clan Wars, the people and the game modes....The customizability of your character was so cool. The items, the gear and the uniqueness... Not only that but the game could literally run on anything. You could find a pc in the trash and it would run the game with 60fps at least. This game gave me one of the best momories in my gaming "career" period. I'll always remember this game as one of the best and the one that made my teenage time so awesome.
As a filipino who just came back to playing the game i can show you the things i love about this game -Generously gives vip weap for a limited time sometimes -Can run on my trash laptop -Hero mode Extreme -Found in com shops -The feeling of using a vip weap for the first time. -Nostalgic gameplay really reminds you of cs 1.6.
As a Filipino, it's just cool to see cf getting recognized. I remember back in the old days of 2009-2012-ish when we would cut classes during lunch breaks just to spend one hour at internet cafes just to play crossfire and bet who'd win. We would bet real money. The loser will even sometimes pay for the winner's internet cafe fee😂😂
Jokes on you, i knew that game. Was still playing with an ISDN connection, but it worked just good enough, as long as i wasnt in a call with my buddys. One of my greatest and first online gaming memories was playing ghost mode on the stargate map with friends. I stood in the window by the upper gate and shot into the window across the map and got the greatest BS kill of my live. That was like 2012 or so. Eventually some ass hat managed to gain access to my account, which killed the game for me.
What a nostalgia! I’m from Croatia and my whole squad played this game. I played it for fk 7 years. 😅 What an experience. This game have a vibe and game experience was something els. I’ve never liked cs 1.6 and cs go, but crossfire with this bad graphics was something els. I remembered that I always liked girl characters. SPOP was traditionally my favorite. I wish I can go back to that time and play again. ❤
Feel you so much. 11 years ago I was spending 100% of my time for this game. Happy to see that it's still available. But maybe it's better to keep it in memory as a good & funny time.
Im gonna put it like this, cross-fire and csgo look identical but they feel so different, I hop on csgo and I can't enjoy myself, but when I hop on crossfire and hop into that mutant mode or use the shop I feel so much excitement, same with alliance of valiant arms, I grew up playing all these fps games and they had their own different vibe, props to crossfire such a very good game.
Cf is a well-known game in China, I have been playing it since I was about 10 years old (I am 22 now). This game carries the youth of most young people in China!! Now, 10 years later, CF is still there, but the people who played cf together have gone their separate ways.
Soldier Front(Special Forces here in Philippines) and CrossFire are one of the two first online FPS F2P I've played. Man, I miss playing those two games, been playing them up until in the middle of my Highschool. After that I switched to CSGO.
My god I played this wayyyy more than any counter strike. TDM, Mutation Mode, Zombie Mode... you name it, never knew it was this big, but glad it is, and it's still kicking.
As a Filipino who played this game since the launch from our country, this game was the first competitive FPS game I've ever played. And the game is still alive here, but not like the old days. I played this game for like a decade but stopped because of the P2P aspects, unbalanced guns and gameplay, and so many cheaters/hackers. I played CS:GO for like 7 years and now I'm currently playing Valorant. It's sad to see what Crossfire had become but it is still fun. I still remember the good old days me and my friends playing in Clan Wars and winning most of them just to get recognition and to get our own clan logo. At that time you need to work hard inorder to get your own clan banner. But now its easy if you have money. I still remember my inventory almost completing the whole characters and VIPs weapons, but now I realized I wasted like $1,000 of my money. Either way, great video it brought me nostalgic. Keep up the good work!
Quite famous here on asia not to mention on china and Indonesia, started playing crossfire when i was 7 almost all of my friends i know have crossfire accounts,its almost a culture here on Philippines including RoS (rules of survival) What made it fun is because it was accessable its free, runs on crappy pc and is small in size so computer shops which are common is asia downloads them and also the game modes, i remember when i was 10 each time class finished we played crossfire made a private lobby and play zombie mode, ghost mode, ffa or classic bomb plant mode and much more it has probably atleast 20 modes from cops and robbers to parkour and with a hundred maps..... Quite nice its getting noticed
02:33 the instant "cheater" in chat. Yup, that's the Crossfire I remeber. LOL I played this back in the day because I couldn't afford anything better and I remember days where I didn't get to finish a single game because the moment you where at the top of the leader board or got more than a double kill, you'd be vote kicked. Good times :')
bruh i remember skipping class every afternoon along with my classmates just to play this game. VIP weapons were the big dreams of mine while grades were in the brink of collapse and almost couldn't passed 9th grade. the good old memories.
I, to this day, still play crossfire on a regular basis. Even having a pretty solid rig to play other games. This game must be respected, this game just hits different, be it nostalgia.. whatever, you name it. But its just good.
Hello my name is Emmanuel and I'm from Philippines, CrossFire was the very first computer game I played back when I was just in grade school, I was probably like 9 years old at that time. The first time I played I was hooked immediately, I liked the voice system when you throw a grenade which is "fire in the hole". In short I liked everything in this game and it was a popular game here in the Philippines
This game was so popular due to it being f2p and that the system requirements were quite low so internet shops in Asia could install them and attract kids who grew up playing this game.

As a german "allmost-pro" in crossfire, let me tell you about some stuff we had to go trough:
1. When Crossfire Europe wasnt released, we had to play on "NA", but we couldnt crouch because the keyboard layouts were programmed so badly, we had to switch to US-Layout, switch the keyboard settings ingame and then switch back.
2. 1000hz polling rate isnt supported, or at least lets your mouse go up and down while aiming left-right.
3. You could click your mouswheel on the scope/right-click button in settings menu, when you played AWM (AWP in csgo) or any other sniper, you could just press shoot button and instantly quickscoped which is btw. very strong in csgo because there is no cooldown of precision.
4. China-Walk was a technique of walking sideways (key A/D) and fastly pressing forward/backward(w/s). It made you faster and people couldnt hear your steps (i think it was possible to switch ws / ad arround.
5. Bunnyhopping was really easy, it was the fastest way to go from A->B and also didnt make noice if done right.
6. you could "high-jump" onto things by hitting jump right before landing, experienced players could easily do it while running whout having to stand infront of the "target".
7. You could glitch into boxes by standing on a corner of a box and slightly fastly going forward/backward and left/right... at some point you just sank into the crate and in some maps this allowed you to go to extremely weird places.
8. Crossfire comp scene started by "forbidding" BP (Bulletproof helmet and vest) which allowed you to dodge a headshot with many weapons (m4), later they allowed to because the m4 was a little too strong, problem is that BP is a real money exclusive, or at least back in the days hard to get.
9. If you aim at a player trough a smoke, the name pops up in red on your crosshair, making it easy to get kills trough smokes.
10. you could avoid fall damage by bunnyhopping.
11. walking of an elevation totally didnt affect your precision, making it very easy to hit insane 360° "Dropshots". (Jumpshots were a little harder, but way easier than csgo f.e.)
12. Many edges let you aim and shoot trough them, this allowed you to kill enemies trough whole buildings with a little timing.
13. there was a error message when: Glitching into boxes, having unstable internet, sometimes random that made your game crash or at least kick you out of the game.
Made it very unplayable at some times.
ist das spiel noch aktiv ? sieht aus wie etwas auf das ich bock habe weil ich immer csgo aber mit asiatischem feeling spielen wollte, und wenns aktiv ist wuerd ichs mal ausprobieren
@@Linda- cf west ist definitiv noch aktiv, hab vor 1-2 monaten mal wieder reingeschaut, war echt erstaunt wie viele das game noch zocken^^
@@Linda- Jap ist noch aktiv und gibt auch noch viele deutsche die immernoch aktiv spielen wie sn0x oder die Leute von PENTA etc.
Can you still do some of these? Or are they all fixed? I'm a noob/new CF player so I'm looking for some tips lol.
@@CookieSunglasses pretty sure, the general rule for crossfire is to not fix stuff
I play crossfire west everyday
Everyday I enjoy ghost mode
Basically it's for real real real pros
Black list ( Ghosts ) can do tricks to move invisible
Global risk ( Defenders ) can hear ghost's breath detect and pinpoint them and kill them
But if they walk you can see them
It's basically an advanced search and destroy mode where ghosts try to plant C4 or kill GR
it's so satisfying in an incredible way
I recommend you try it with your friends.
i had goosebumps playing this mode as a kid, but my parents limited me playing cf one hour a week, so i never played this enough
I still play this mode up to this day!
true its underrated
I was pretty good at being a Ghost back in the day. I don't know what its called anymore but there's this mechanic that I practiced everyday back then that allows you to jump without revealing yourself.
I can't believe that you talk about CF without talking about the Zombie mode
Ghost > Zombie
There are zombies mode in CS and they are more fun imo. In CF, zombies aren't that threatening -_-
crouch and jump spam .. i'member
@@bookofnamzays9477 bhop 👍
@@cloudynguyen6527 agreed, since child i think ghost more bringing jumpscare but in reality CS zombie is way more jumpscare no matter how much i play the game compare to crossifire
I miss this game with a passion. There is something so satisfying about the simple graphics, sfx and vfx in this game. I wish more people in NA liked this game, i want to play it, but the NA servers are barren or slot reserved.
I would agree with you if it was 2007 to maybe 2015 version. CrossFire 2.0 is plagued with terrible matches, unbalanced gameplay, god awful map design, netcode issue, etc. GP shop weapons are obsolete. Sure, there is some good stuff in the Mileage shop, but it's still nothing compared to VIP/ZP weapons. Back then, I used to rock with an M16 and Desert Eagle against ZP players and would get called a cheater. Now I need to farm for craft/upgrade for my weapons or buy shit in the black market for coupons to go toe to toe with ZP players. Luckily, I completed an event that earned me an M4A1 Proto; it's overpowered as the VIP/ZP M4s. There's even a character than could cancel sniper recoil by kicking.
The CrossFire that we used to know is not there anymore. I miss the time when I could just login and play the game. I fucking hate farming for shit just to get even; I feel miserable playing after coming back 1 month ago. There are far better free-to-play first-person shooters out in the market than this. Since Counter-Strike: Global Offensive is now also free-to-play, there's no point in coming back to CrossFire anymore. Unless you just like its aesthetics.
Switch to Asia server bro literally at least 3 people in the internet cafe play this game all the time. Everyone I know plays or has played crossfire in their life here in Asia 😂
@@Forgottentwice你是哪个国家的
This is the game that started my gaming passion. I can never forget this game
me too gaming carrer gaming passion
Whycwoykd someone play this cs rip off. It is worse on every aspect
@@Paterq This is not the case. Crossfire has over 500 weapons, over 50 different game modes, over 100 different scenarios, and so on. In terms of content it is far superior to Counter Strike.
@@Paterq But when it is your first game, in 2008 with f2p hay good online server, you can easily enjoy it you know. Especially when you compare with Counter Strike Online.
One of the best fps games out there for me.. i still come back to it even after 10+ years .. i love it
I love in the Philippines and this game alongside Soldier Front and Point Blank were probably the three biggest free to play FPS back then, now I think it's just Crossfire surviving since computer shops are still alive in the Philippines and again you don't need a beast PC to run this game
Great video.
A lot of what you said hits the point.
There are some more things you could have mentioned, but i think overall the most important things got mentioned.
Ah yes, I remember playing this FPS with my friends at the internet cafe in front of my school after school 10 years ago. So many played the game that the school directors has to forcefully close the internet cafe (idk how they did it but the cafe closed). So many memories.
sounds like a story from my home city in indonesia too 😂, where are you from dude?
I loved this game as a kid. I more grew up on Combat Arms, so my heart really lies with that game. But I'm oddly always attracted to games like Crossfire. The aesthetic, speedy gameplay, and non-english community has fsr become my favorite aspects of Korean-made F2P shooter games. I came to this video after a conversation with a friend. And while it is a shame that this game isn't very playable in the US it seems, I'd still love to give it another try after all these years to see if it's held up in any regard, or if it's not worth it in the US.
Current NA Crossfire player here! Wasn’t expecting to see anything on the game anytime soon, but it’s good to see some attention shone on the scene. It’s very small, but if you play the game, you won’t ever escape. Something alllllways will drive you back.
So true. I came back after not playing for 4 years. Cf west.

@@Josh-wp5tm are the servers still on a decline?, last time i played only servers with players were stuff like eu
@@pupuchi5842 the eu server is almost full *during eu peak hours*, though its cap is 3000. Most of it is non snd matches, but u wont struggle to find a game with alot of people. Im from NA too, luckily east coast and only get 86 ping. Still a blast, holds up to games like csgo, if you can get a good connection that is. No other server is alive and people from other regions join us with high ping since the game shutdown in their region, its annoying but i dont blame them for wanting to play a game they love.
@@zip3704 thats great to hear, i used to play the game religiously along with roblox back in 2011-2016 because i had a shitty laptop and thats about everything i could play, along with "Shadowgun:deadzone". Mostly played zombies or snd, had a blast back then. Lets see if i remember my account details lol
ah the last hope of na cf mr.LiXR
I grew up with this game. Back in the days when around 2013-2014, my entire school was playing this game. Was my childhood and felt good about it.
as someone living in thailand this is a name i honestly hear way too much. its rlly popular among local kids, mostly the mobile battle royale nowadays tho
I started playing this game in 2011 and I still play it. Love the nostalgia
Game was huge part of my childhood growing up. Great to see a vid like this for the nostalgia factor.
Player of month one of Indonesian CF release here:
1. CF didn't take off in here because another korean fps was released before this game called Point Blank. Nevertheless it lived on until 2020 when it was shut down from low CCU, while said game is still strong
2. Continuation from number 2, unfortunately the game was abandoned by the publisher and went into maintenance mode around late 2019 until eventual shut down.
3. We get around P2W weapons by farming more or less same version but from PVE modes, it drops temp weapons that is good enough. And when MP shop came out, we made new accs to farm MPs on so that we get better weapons from shop. As time goes on some P2W weapons, including VIP weapons were given out for free both temporarily and permanently as event weapons, to the extent that P2W players were mad that their rare and or expensive weapon collection is now worthless since everyone who did the event has it.
I remember playing Crossfire on a shitty laptop as a kid.
Since it was free and easy to mod, my friends and me loved it.
6:07 Just one letter away from a cuss word.
I played this game a lot with my friends in Canada. I enjoyed it a lot, especially the Ghost game-mode which no other game has managed to recreate. Unfortunately, there was an unchecked hacker problem for far too long, and it made us all quit the game.
Lots of good memories of this one though.
hackers is not often as you make it to be
@@oneplay5570 Perhaps not anymore, but when I was playing regularly in 2011 hackers were present in almost every public game.

I'm in the video! Lol @ 9:22 right side team playing for Black List "KGB" ROLF!
I played this growing up, till all of my friends played cs and none of them wanted to give it a try and I finally switched over. Had a good time with it :)
I've played in this one in 2012 and it was a reason why i failed some of my exams in university. I still remember these cool zombie modes, mechanics, maps and how satisfied it was to kill enemies and find a right position on a map. I think only bf3 cranes death match can compare to it in a way of emotions in close combats
It's still very much alive and gets updated frequently. Millions of people still play this game in Asia server
It's so interesting to me to see this game covered! I played it for 4 years more or l as daily and for 4 more years every so often. Played scrims, spend all my money into it and made alot of friends with clans and TeamSpeak. Sadly nowadays a pretty trashy game, but it sure holds a special place in my heart!
This game is very popular in asia especially in southeast. Im a filipino and this game is very popular here every kids play this game in local computer shop.
What is a computer shop? You pay to play their computer for a few hours?

Ghost mode was such an awesome game mode, with a high skill ceilling for both sides, bunnyhopping on the ghost side to be able to blitz around the map literally unseen, and pinpointing from the other side to be able to find them by sound and proximity alone.
Its so sad that i tried to get into it again a couple months ago but literally couldnt get a single ghost mode game on NA, you are either from the eastern side of the world or you just cant play.
Ghost mode disappeared from NA server, there was a few ghost mode lobby in the EU but that’s it. I used to play ghost mode a lot, bunnyhopping through the whole map already gives me satisfaction
I have hella memories of ghost mode. Especially on the map with the trains. The mechanic of hearing them by audio and seeing them when they were close was neat.
lol i came back from the game just to play ghost mode kekw
I learned about “p2w”, “cheating” and “loot boxes” when i started playing cf
Still got my Crossfire poster that I won in a local tournament. Much love.. Nostalgic.. Beautiful.
I spent so many hours on this, the progression was painfully slow but it could be a very fun shooter at times
This game is very popular here my country, anytime you enter a pc shop almost every kid are playing the same game
I just came back to this game and it gave out like 3-4 vips for free, for being a 12 years player and returning rewards are goated. The server might have been so low with players these days i still came back to this game from time to time to enjoy a quick fun.
As a guy who’s a super try hard player in CrossfireX lobbies along with my comrades, it’s really struggling playing one map(Black Widow which takes notes from Dust 2) over and over again with no variety. It’s tiring but we still here and will be here till the game is no more. Hell we waited over 48 days since the March update came out which fixed those imbalances and added more QOL updates you mentioned. Not perfect as more maps are needed which are teased and coming but it’s weird love hate relationship. Want the best for it after the horrible launch and first impression but communication between devs and players is limited. The team wants it be great but they’ll have to live up to their word.
Blackwidow is great starting point for new players.
Here I am playing it again about a year before this upload. Games nostalgic without AS MANY hackers as other older games.
YOU'LL GET CAUGHT UP IN THE...
You hear a lot about Crossfire here in Australia given how close we are to Asia. Not players to my knowledge, but a lot of our casters have done Crossfire stuff. Elfishguy and Sandman come to mind.
CROSS FIYAAAAAAAAAH!!!
this is the first fps i ever played. I' m not that old but heck its incredible that when i played it minecraft didnt even exist yet.
Semi-professionell player here, we actually had some ways to get around the gun buying feature
Do elaborate
What is it?
by using the stock gun the majestic "M16"
Im not a semi pro but im playing in lan tournaments too in ph some tournaments they follow the international rule(which is the CFS RULES) about the gun and also the character we just use the default character and default gun(we call it CFS GUNS/CS GUN) but some tournaments they dont but they use the community rules Like Open for all guns but just use male characters.
Btw even u have the VIP GUN(Which is you gonna pay with real money) the ak47 still one tap headshot even deagle so
make a new fresh account get the account to sergeant you can guarantee a broken gun in mega lotto
CF is really big in the Philippines, China and Brazil
So nostalgic, I remeber going to a internet cafe and playing this in 2008, back then Garena was very popular since Steam didn’t have Pesos and other SEA currency update
I still play it to this day! I play it whenever I wanna chill out and I got a buddy who still plays it in 2023 with me
Played this game way back in the day on my Windows Xp, was quite fun at that particular time. :)
I used to play this in Costa Rica back to 2010, my clan had people from over América. What a great time to remember! Thank you for the vídeo.
Man this bring back so many memories. I remembered that it was so easy to cheat in this game that the internet cafe near my house has the cheats installed in every PC. It was harder to find a lobby without a cheater than ones without. Loved the zombie mode tho
I remember when i go to a full lobby but no one even in the map they go underground and shoot each other
6:07 This part caught me off guard 😂😂😂
I don't think a lot of people realise that CS 1.6 pretty much spawned an entire sub-genre of FPS. There are a ton of games like Crossfire that were also popular in Asia (although nowhere near as huge) and they all pretty much have the same graphics and gameplay of a more arcade-y, run and gun CS.
It was kinda funny to see people malding over Valorant being a cheap CS ripoff when it came out when CS clones have been a thing for over almost two decades.
I never thought Valorant was a CS ripoff, I knew it was an Overwatch ripoff
@@Halfort57 its a ripoff of everything that worked in other fps games pretty much

Crossfire Ghost mode was my shit back in the day lmao.
American here, I definitely heard of this game and played it all the way back in 2009-2010. Loved ghost mode but I wouldn't go back to it ever because the of the pay to win model. It took tons of hours of grinding just to be able to get a single gun that was better than the starting gun without having to pay real money.
All of current modern giant game industry company turned to greed microtransaction lock DLC evil now, even EA weren't as good as decade 2000 EA
To this day, the CF Esports scene is alive and well. It was even played as an olympic sport in South East Asian Games.
Grew up in this game, there were times that we even escape our parents just to go to a nearby computer shop just to play this. Back then only few have VIP weapons but now it is very common as a result this may sometimes create an imbalance as VIP weapons are much stronger than your classic weapons.
i still remember the times where they had no vip weapons... having an m4 crystal was kind of the best you could have, back in the day, really good times.
@@PetnwurstI played like 4 years ago and I remember everyone itching and begging to get a vip on cf
What a rollercoaster, was thinking "oh wow it was that popular? cool. oh it's still going? I thought it died like a decade ago, woah still getting invested into? ok ok. oh it's unplayable outside of asia, damn.."
Man I still remember playing this game around 2010 when I lived in China. Pratically everyone in my class and neighbourhood played it. I also remember the best weapons being stupidly expensive lol.

I grew up playing this game as a kid in the US. I didn't have a computer that could run super strong games. I love Crossfire though, and I still come back to it a few times a year.
As someone suffering with a geforce 210 and a core 2 duo this game is pretty much my PC's VALORANT
Edit: probably csgo but cs source exists and csgo runs on it albeit dog fps on dog res
Honestly it just looks like counter strike nexon
Just came here after watching secret level, that episode was fire and I have never heard this game before
My Mom and Dad once own an internet cafe/shop (computer shop) and hell this was one of the games I've always played and never got sick off, there we're tons of fun game modes too unlike FPS games this days which only have few. This is the greatest and will always have special place in my heart.
I remember how nice everyone was about the game, the trash talks weren't excessive, and when it is, the trash talks are basically just hilarious (at least in my place back then) I remember people letting me borrow their accounts in the internet cafe when I was a kid and the hype of playing the game more after getting the kill is just, incredible
That’s awesome.

@@martakolol6526 yeah fr.. I just gave up at some point lol AND THE CHEATERS TOO OMG..
A really fun, nostalgic, and exciting game of all time imo. Unfortunately, cheaters are everywhere.
This was one of the best and one of my most played games of all time. CF NA (the OG) was one of the best experiences I've had. Clan Wars, the people and the game modes....The customizability of your character was so cool. The items, the gear and the uniqueness...
Not only that but the game could literally run on anything. You could find a pc in the trash and it would run the game with 60fps at least. This game gave me one of the best momories in my gaming "career" period. I'll always remember this game as one of the best and the one that made my teenage time so awesome.
ive heard of it actually, kinda sad it didnt take off in the us ect.
looks very simmilar to csgo.
Gameplay wise it's pretty much more like CS 1.6, which makes it kind have a cult following.
because combat arms already existed when cf came out so no wonder
As a filipino who just came back to playing the game i can show you the things i love about this game
-Generously gives vip weap for a limited time sometimes
-Can run on my trash laptop
-Hero mode Extreme
-Found in com shops
-The feeling of using a vip weap for the first time.
-Nostalgic gameplay really reminds you of cs 1.6.
i remeber playing crossfire back in the day. back when you could blink and find MMO's all over and f2p shooters.
wait no, it was combat arms.....awww man we going back in time
Combat arms was the goat of the f2p shooters. I wish they reverted to their old state
@@AlexFBauer To me combat arms was the best f2p shooter at the time.
Zombie modes in this game is so good, especially when players starts chasing you and u just starter doing parkours to avoid em
The zombie mode was so fun in this.
As a Filipino, it's just cool to see cf getting recognized. I remember back in the old days of 2009-2012-ish when we would cut classes during lunch breaks just to spend one hour at internet cafes just to play crossfire and bet who'd win. We would bet real money. The loser will even sometimes pay for the winner's internet cafe fee😂😂
Jokes on you, i knew that game. Was still playing with an ISDN connection, but it worked just good enough, as long as i wasnt in a call with my buddys.
One of my greatest and first online gaming memories was playing ghost mode on the stargate map with friends. I stood in the window by the upper gate and shot into the window across the map and got the greatest BS kill of my live.
That was like 2012 or so. Eventually some ass hat managed to gain access to my account, which killed the game for me.
Ahhhh sometimes i just remember crossfire days and watch it on UA-cam, good old times
What a nostalgia!
I’m from Croatia and my whole squad played this game. I played it for fk 7 years. 😅 What an experience. This game have a vibe and game experience was something els. I’ve never liked cs 1.6 and cs go, but crossfire with this bad graphics was something els. I remembered that I always liked girl characters. SPOP was traditionally my favorite. I wish I can go back to that time and play again. ❤
Kako si se zvao u igri? Ja sam bio ]B

Feel you so much. 11 years ago I was spending 100% of my time for this game. Happy to see that it's still available. But maybe it's better to keep it in memory as a good & funny time.
rip crossfire
Im gonna put it like this, cross-fire and csgo look identical but they feel so different, I hop on csgo and I can't enjoy myself, but when I hop on crossfire and hop into that mutant mode or use the shop I feel so much excitement, same with alliance of valiant arms, I grew up playing all these fps games and they had their own different vibe, props to crossfire such a very good game.
dang this is so nostalgic. i remember playing this in cyber cafe when i was still in junior high
Cf is a well-known game in China, I have been playing it since I was about 10 years old (I am 22 now).
This game carries the youth of most young people in China!!
Now, 10 years later, CF is still there, but the people who played cf together have gone their separate ways.
Soldier Front(Special Forces here in Philippines) and CrossFire are one of the two first online FPS F2P I've played. Man, I miss playing those two games, been playing them up until in the middle of my Highschool. After that I switched to CSGO.
My god I played this wayyyy more than any counter strike. TDM, Mutation Mode, Zombie Mode... you name it, never knew it was this big, but glad it is, and it's still kicking.
As a Filipino who played this game since the launch from our country, this game was the first competitive FPS game I've ever played. And the game is still alive here, but not like the old days. I played this game for like a decade but stopped because of the P2P aspects, unbalanced guns and gameplay, and so many cheaters/hackers. I played CS:GO for like 7 years and now I'm currently playing Valorant. It's sad to see what Crossfire had become but it is still fun. I still remember the good old days me and my friends playing in Clan Wars and winning most of them just to get recognition and to get our own clan logo. At that time you need to work hard inorder to get your own clan banner. But now its easy if you have money. I still remember my inventory almost completing the whole characters and VIPs weapons, but now I realized I wasted like $1,000 of my money.
Either way, great video it brought me nostalgic. Keep up the good work!
In Romania, this game was dope.
nah this is literally my childhood
Don’t forget CSNZ.
Those were the days!
Quite famous here on asia not to mention on china and Indonesia, started playing crossfire when i was 7 almost all of my friends i know have crossfire accounts,its almost a culture here on Philippines including RoS (rules of survival)
What made it fun is because it was accessable its free, runs on crappy pc and is small in size so computer shops which are common is asia downloads them and also the game modes, i remember when i was 10 each time class finished we played crossfire made a private lobby and play zombie mode, ghost mode, ffa or classic bomb plant mode and much more it has probably atleast 20 modes from cops and robbers to parkour and with a hundred maps..... Quite nice its getting noticed
Very good video! Some current pros in Valorant scene here in Brazil started out in Crossfire, Point Blank, and others.
02:33 the instant "cheater" in chat. Yup, that's the Crossfire I remeber. LOL
I played this back in the day because I couldn't afford anything better and I remember days where I didn't get to finish a single game because the moment you where at the top of the leader board or got more than a double kill, you'd be vote kicked. Good times :')
bruh i remember skipping class every afternoon along with my classmates just to play this game. VIP weapons were the big dreams of mine while grades were in the brink of collapse and almost couldn't passed 9th grade. the good old memories.
I, to this day, still play crossfire on a regular basis. Even having a pretty solid rig to play other games.
This game must be respected, this game just hits different, be it nostalgia.. whatever, you name it. But its just good.
Hello my name is Emmanuel and I'm from Philippines, CrossFire was the very first computer game I played back when I was just in grade school, I was probably like 9 years old at that time. The first time I played I was hooked immediately, I liked the voice system when you throw a grenade which is "fire in the hole". In short I liked everything in this game and it was a popular game here in the Philippines
Thanks for the history lesson on "crossfire". I love this video. Sorry for my lateness.
