To play it, you need a game installation (for sure
) and a patch, which fix several bugs (important a chat function in-game).Many people ask why do they see a sentences containing for example this: CS1.6 CHAT ALL ####### - That's mostly because they haven't patched their game.

Anyway, better to buy steam and you don't need to do anything more
Hope this helps
