CS:GO Discussion

Yep looks like I might have to actually do something productive today.
Could be a laugh to watch some of the pro matches later.

There is supposed to be one more big lan also the ESEA one,
I will just not play for a week (lost 5 games in a row) hopefully by then someone in VOLVO comes to senses.
 
Arma 3 used to do beta releases on steam. Its under library options to go that branch or stick to main, maybe they are saving bandwidth Im not sure.
I expect devs attitude is more like TF2 and that all of it should be taken as good fun. Im kinda sympathetic to changes but hard not to see why pro gamers upset when you literally screw with their livelihood.

Im sure they will iron it out, literally they are record as saying they would avoid new gun models for fear of upsetting game balance, well.....


I find it hilarious.

I dabble in some pub games whilst waiting for friends, the amount of hacking accusations thrown around by everyone is amazing.
Got killed by someone on the opposing team with a 1-0-7 score? THEY MUST BE HACKING!!! :p
Ive managed to get banned for smurfing after getting like 12 kills and I was grouped with 3 globals who understandably carried the game. I turned off mouse invert and was trying to get practise, didnt want anyone to rage when I miss up shots so put down Im low rank. All I did was cover smoke with a cz or similar, dont push, walk with crosshair right places but seems I cant reason with admin who just lost a map.
They just insulting themselves to ban such low kills, I apologised anyhow but nope Im the bad guy seriously :confused:

Why are you trying to change from mouse inverted? If that is what you are used to then just stick with it?

A whole bunch of professional gamers back in ze day of Quake and UT used inverted mouse and it made no difference to them.
 
It gets boring quick imo, bring back exploding barrels pls Gaben :D

I saw a video of someone playing on a trackerball, they had perfect flicks with it. I dont think Im good enough to handle that disadvantage, I watched a video of Maniac playing inverted before deciding and I think he has bypassed any negatives it may have.
A player with like 10,000dpi:
Anyhow Im trying, I got nothing to lose really and I got a niggly feeling when I aim with inverted, it wasnt sitting right and maybe thats why. I dont know the reasoning why one would be better, I had always thought why would it really be any worse off but it might be truly a disadvantage.
We'll see, Im sympathetic to the coders with their changes they are just throwing things out there to see what floats and yep this dont. They'll buff it out :p
Gilly's sig just noticed :D
Be willing to surrender what you are for what you could become

Most likely, but it shouldn't match them with LE-LEM's, not LEM-Supremes... :rolleyes:

It'll mix ranks upto 10 rank difference across a team. I saw someone fighting vs 6 rank advantage and getting 41 kills to win.
MM if it believes a boost is going on will ignore ranks sometimes, I played vs global and supreme and we were all novas but one of our queue was supreme

P2000 | Amber Fade - These shot up in price as it can be upgraded now, its a normal drop so Im not imagining it accumulates vast value

Right so I have been a cs player for a long time but I have only just got into playing it competitively again recently. After doing my 10 placements ( with what can only be described as a mixed bag of results ) it places me in legendary eagle master. Now you can imagine my reaction when I find that to be the 3rd highest rank achievable. My question is are there any actual benefits to been ranked aside from wanting to get better as a player?

You usually get matched with same or higher level players, the advantage the people will have over you is about 300 -500 hours of MM witch give them slight advantage of knowing smokes and starts, but if you got LEM after 10 matches you can probably pick this up very quickly.

There are no benefits in being ranked at any level, its only up to you how much you want to invest into the game to get better.
Its like playing a game and finishing it at 70% if you are happy with that then ez pz, if not then you go further.

Also not to degrade the fact you are a good player please don't take it the wrong way but 10 matches rarely indicates the actual level of your game I would consider half of the games to be non relevant even if you won(trolls,noobs,griefers on both sides can occur), and if you played with someone (lobby of any number of players) that doesn't or shouldn't count either cos it might be seen as boosting (not knowingly of course just as example)

That being said I ranked as MG3 and I played 1.6 long time ago and mostly battlefield, after like 120 wins (250hours) I am at LEM (not for long I will down rank soon cos loosing too much) an I don't care about my rank I only get frustrated when I know that I should have hit that shot or stuff like that i get frustrated on my mistakes, there is no point being toxic or angry at your team mates or enemies as you have no power changing that, you should be only frustrated on your plays and mistakes.

TLDR: no benefit of higher rank, play the game if you like it if you are good you get "rewarded" by higher ranks, LEM after 10 games is NICE, GJ.

No benefits.

Enjoy getting thrashed though! I'm in a skill group too high for my skill IMO.

I was DMG after less than 1-2 weeks of playing CSGO and sub 50 hours. I've played it many many years ago but that's not the point, I should not be in the skill group I am in.
 
Thanks for the feedback chaps :) I agree that I am probably ranked higher then I should be I did use to play back in the ED leagues etc but that was 1.6 a completly different game. Ill continue to play as I enjoy 5 v 5 :)

Also other benefits of playing is learning Russian and Polish language. Its not a bad thing btw.
 
Just played an ESEA match noticing people with 9k + buying only the Revolver, CS is so broken right now.

Managed to wallbang headshot through sandbags from boost on Cache with my first bullet, pretty satisfying considering half the team were abusing the OP weapon in mid round after round therefore I started doing the same.

Ended up 33-3-16 yet I still receive -1 Karma, what is wrong with people?!
