Rewards and Community Engagement
“Operation Payback is the first of an ongoing series of limited-time updates aimed at rewarding CS:GO’s most popular mapmakers. For just $2.99, you’ll get unlimited access to a Classic Casual map group featuring top-voted community maps hosted on dedicated servers. You can also invite your friends to your “Operation Payback” games, even if they don’t have a pass.”
This initiative not only provides players with fresh content but also supports the community of mapmakers who contribute to the game. By purchasing the Operation Payback pass, players are directly supporting these creators, encouraging them to continue developing high-quality maps.
“Contributors to Operation Payback will get a one-of-a-kind upgradable challenge coin, viewable wherever your avatar is shown. Let everyone know you support Counter-Strike’s mapmaking community with a bronze coin–then battle your way to a gold to let them know you kicked those maps’ asses.”
The challenge coin is a unique reward that evolves as players complete various challenges within the Operation Payback maps. Starting with a bronze coin, players can upgrade it to silver and eventually gold, showcasing their dedication and skill to the entire CS:GO community.
