Does anyone could play CS:GO no steam with wine in Ubuntu 14.04? I want to test it first before buy. I have tried but i fail, steam client needed error. I know CS:GO steam works with wine, but does cs:go no steam work with wine?

It seems that it works, but sometimes with some problems.
See CS:GO in Wine, fullscreen freezes when Alt-Tabing and overlaps everything, including dobey's comment:
It's an issue with wine. Change the game settings to not be full screen and it will be fine.
Basically, you may have to run it in windowed mode.
Also see the Wine AppDB page for CS:GO, and particularly this page (as that's close to the version of the game you're likely attempting to run):
What works
- The game
What does not
- Steam overlay
- Lighting, objects shine through walls with multicore rendering enabled (default setting)
That page also mentions: "The Steam overlay MUST be disabled or the game will either not recognise any keyboard input or crash on pressing a key."
