I Decided to rework my review of this game after the 06.06.2021 with the Prime Update.

First Here is my old Review i just posted in a short version:

Started Playing it first when it came out for about 1 year, had some fun with it, met some nice people but also serval cheaters especially on the higher ranks. Now in 2020 I just started playing CSGO again, it is still fun sometimes but since its free to play you have to “buy” the game for a huge amount of money compared to what I was about the first days, I tried it anyway without buying the game again and just went into “Community Casual” to level my game to at least level 2. That was a really bad experience since there were at least 2 guys with wallhacks. On Level 2 then I could finally enter competitive what was almost the same. One guy just steamrolled my entire team round after round.
I wont talk about the Battle Royal stuff in this game since it has nothing to do with Counter Strike for me
Conclusion: This Game may be still a lot of fun with friend if you have an account above level 21 (for Prime Status) or you buy the Game to get Prime Status else it could be very frustrating to play.

Update: 11.06.2021:

DO NOT BOTHER WITH THIS GAME! Be Warned!

I loved Counter Strike since my childhood, i tried hard and everything to keep this game in good memorys but HELL NO!
They Advertise this game as "free to play" where it is NOT! Yes, you can download and play it for free but without prime you will be lost completely. Almost everyone is cheating here and if not your account progress will be zero and also stay like zero. You dont earn a rank anymore in competetive, also no account level or drops is earned. You will be forced to buy the game for around 12 € to progress in competetiv or play against legit players.

i, who bought the game when it was released of course have prime and can earn drops, ranks or level in this game but that really doesnt matter since every 2nd game i have is a cheater in my or the enemy team. i thought its going to change with another prime account (maybe my trust factor is bad) but no, it doesnt matter. i still meet ppl with low ranked / fresh accounts .

This game has become a cheating simulator where u can leave a lot of money for weapon skins.

No more fun in this game, i get back to CS Source where rank and weapon skins doesnt matter.
