CS:GO Discussion

I was a great fan of 1.6, but in this game, I really struggle to see the enemy at distance. Maps like aztec are a complete nightmare for me as the enemy totally blends into the background.

Its totally put me off playing the game, what I liked about the original was it was a basic tactical point and shoot, none of the clutter and bush hiding that you can get in other games.

Anyone else feel this, or is it just me getting older and my eyesight going.

There is nothing more infuriating than being killed by someone that is right in front of you in the open that you simply cannot see?

I have the same issue. I'm a source veteran and find the colours easier to differentiate between character models and surroundings on CSS compared to GO. Still prefer source, but have been playing quite a few games of GO recently. I don't see myself playing GO as much as I did/do source, but I enjoy the occasional game on it.

anyone still playing much? This thread seems a bit dead but feel free to add me. I'm playing competitives with mates/randoms most nights atm but could do with a bigger pool of UK players.

Been trying to play this tonight but every time I search for Demlotion or Classic causal I get put into server where I am the only the player and the rest of the teams are bots?? Any way of filtering bots out

Operation Payback...

What happens at the end of July when it ends?

Will it never be possible to play the maps on Official servers again?
 
I am not sure to be honest, I know 10 hours gives you a silver badge, 50 hours give you the gold badge.

And I seem to have trading cards too, 3 of the same card. :)

No idea. I think you need to buy the pass to keep on playing them on official servers. (I think)

I got 1 card :D

If you want want the triplicate of the cards, I wouldn't mind taking it off your hands. I will re-pay the favor when I get a duplicate :)
 
Never really been into counter strike games before but i played this on the free weekend and really enjoyed it. Have now bought CS:GO. Anyone got any tips for a total noob? Only played the deathmatch so far.
 
I cannot trade yet, had to put Steam guard on. And wait 14 days now. So will be able to trade in a couple of weeks.

No problem.

Who has Operation payback? Is it worth buying?

I'm tempted, even because its under €2.5 in the market

EDIT: @Above. Aim for the head. Shoot in small (3 bullet) burts unless up close. Don't give up immediately, its not easy to get good at. I would suggest using the game's matchmaking, as it puts you in servers with people who have the same skill level as you.
 
I have got it to get the gold badge, but at the end of July, I am not sure what happens. They may bring out another badge for other maps. And do it again. But I want to get a gold badge in case it goes on my profile. :D
 
I have done 2 hours so far I think. There must be a way of "cheating" leave the game running or something, but the map changes and you will be kicked for being afk. :(

Looks like I will have to keep on playing!
