CS:GO Discussion

[Adam]

I also got demoted after our game yesterday but back to where I was after 2 games tonight. Picked up a lot of tips from yesterday, opens you'd eyes to the better players just when you think you are improving

 

[silversurfer]

Mag7 is a jump around gun just nobody uses it much because its only good up close. Learn that gun, probably more rewarding then eagle imo

Look at the 3rd bullet on a deagle

Spoiler

awp and ak are similar because 1 bullet to the head kills with both

you said it I would compare them, thats why the ak47 is the best gun because some people can reach out with it. Not me especially but Ive seen it


Im not really saying ak and p90 are the same but on full auto in a mess, I think they are putting out most bullets top right of the crosshair. A good player probably kills in the first few bullets on the head anyway so Im talking silver tactics here

Spoiler

I should be compensating the ak to the right 10 rounds in and I cant remember really doing that

[Murray]

With AK its way harder to control recoil. You just have to look down with the P90 really.

I've lost the plot when it comes to this game. I can't shoot anyone for **** anymore. Soooooo frustrating. Need to go back to basics I think.... What are the basics? Hahaha

Aim. Shoot. Kill.

I need to strip back, finding myself just pointing at feet and spraying most of the time.

Was very surprised at how good the famas can be! I use autobuy most of the time and often get stuck with the famas but yesterday I was playing better with that than the m4.

Should be on for a bit tonight.

 

[kaptainmarc]

I'm starting to enjoy the Famas more than M4

I've been playing badly as of late and I realised I'm spraying and panicking

going slow and steady for headshots and I'm now back to the top of the team and stomping though games

I have added you and may join you for a game or two if yuor up to it tonight. I am unranked at the moment, mainly because my overplaying of DM in CSS has my tactical skill lowered and I haev been working to reimprove that.

Still need to improve my aim a bit, seem to be panicking a bit but am getting better. could use a game with some friends to get even better.

you up for casual or comp?

As for the FAMAS I like it in both games, in CSS the 3 shot was incredibly accurate even at long range and I remember annoying a few AWPers a long while back. headshots with the FAMAS feel good lol.

Deagle is just a junk gun now isnt it or is that just me lol, I use it only when doing throw away rounds. The auto p250 is the best, long range maybe five seven.
Try eagle but only when bored imo

Famas I used to think was junk but that can be useful now I think, AK is a bit like P90 with more kick and the two shot burst at the start is pretty much the most lethal thing in the game imo though u cant jump around too much with it. AK is my fav gun right from beta as the full auto can clear the entire room if its done right and with some luck even a noob can own

Congrats on your rank up. That game yesterday was a demote for me but I was overdue and I dont mind wiping out some silvers, though I get slotted into nova regardless

I remember how the Deagle used to be, was well accurate, but I agree, it feels very different and les accurate in CSGO.

 

[kaptainmarc]

Must agree with the famas comment loved it on source never got on with the M4 in CSS.

The Deagle was OP so accurate for Headshots. feels a lot more like a handcannon now

feel free to add me to your friends list everyone steamed:Kaptainmarc I'm GN2 just got demoted from GN3 after some **** poor playing

Aim. Shoot. Kill.

aim miss die is mantra of many noobs. If you really are new, competitive should match up similar skill levels but theres no doubt cs can be frustrating and a bit of a dead end for learning. Watch a twitch stream of a non awp player, see where they throw smoke etc


Simple thing to do is fire every gun as a pistol, the first two shots are the ones that go where the crosshair is (fixed crosshair) and the rest dont. So just dont fire more then two shots, with ak47 its enough. less is more
Headshot is good but go for the body and you prob hit the head sometimes (to start)
So fire two, take cover, duck, whatever. CS is about bluffing and not firing as much as being awesome. Go in pairs, even on a pub server you can mirror somebody. Cover their back, you can wipe up any left overs, attacking already damaged enemies makes you look good.


Another ace up the sleeve is just stand off the beaten track. The best players are impossibly fast, they are working off reflex action.
Maybe some can adapt but its advantage for you, dont repeat the obvious though
So you cant really hide but just be slightly off their line of view, it helps a bit especially if as I said you are in a pair so with distractions you arent easy.


Height and duck effect (quick cover advantage)

Spoiler

Height and unusual position advantages (map is cache)

Spoiler

duck puts you into full cover (flank open)

As silly as it looks, it works (some)

Spoiler

The pillar effect

Spoiler

you will die here if you just sit there in view, its a momentary thing and you've blocked that tunnel exit partly

So you arent protected by a plant, you cant hide behind a lamppost really. Its just a slight point that might tip the scales in your direction and give you a kill, meanwhile learn to aim like Malteser said.

The pillar works because people aim on reflex. Yes they can see you but by reflex they aim and hit the pillar surprisingly often.
Just sitting there on train I got a couple kills I didnt especially deserve, they threw smoke and I killed them anyway because they stand in the same place. I reloaded kept firing and eventually after a few seconds they pinged the pillar and then did adapt and shot me with an AWP.
Cannot overuse any single point really, especially as I used bizon and it shows my flak through smoke and I probably was marked on their radar also

 

[Murray]

Just remember a lot of these things will stop working because people will be good.

And it shouldn't really be two shots then take cover, you should be side stepping and shooting every time the recoil resets.

 

[The__Malteser]

^^^ Me spamming mic, as per usual! What is your CS name silver? It seems we are playing together buy I don't know who you are

This really. I was doing all the good stuff until GN, but then I went onto MG and they don't work anymore.

 

[silversurfer]

Only the one game I think, we are no where near in ranks. My profile is SabreTT though I change my name all the time, steam is in my sig!

side stepping and shooting every time the recoil resets.

People doing the Cha Cha Cha while Im trying to play a serious game really bugs me but true enough it works



Another noob tip to beat the pros, is buy an auto sniper Banned in CSS, banned in cs 1.6, banned on csgo pub servers but help yourself in comp games, its yours to own with.
Got a 4 kill round against a high rank team with MG, they were distracted. Small addendum, the whole game was a joke because my team had aim bots on it (they still died) but I owned one round anyhow

 

[Murray]

Once again auto sniper is only good when the other players are bad.

 

[ColdAsIce]

Guys what's the recommended rates these days? cl_cmdrate etc

Playing on Death match and not sure if it's me, the enemy or the server but enemy movement is stuttering sometimes making it hard to aim...

 

[bJN]

cmdrate and updaterate are both pretty much locked depending on the server you play on; either 64 for 64tic, 128 for 128tic or 102.4 for, you guessed it, 102.4tic.

Oh right, you are right! I know we played one!

This really. Its good to hold small areas (b tunnel from platform is great) but normally players don't just come rushing in. A good AWP will hit you once before you manage to him him twice. I like to push secret (on nuke or inferno, I mix those maps ) on the stairs, and wait for them to rush down behind outside red container. But as i said, nobodu just rushes, except they are on eco, but do you want to risk spending 5000 vs an eco round?

I played a game and went 24-2 last week. No rank up.

Just went 14-20 and ranked up.

MM rank confuses me. Oh well, back to DMG.

Kills have nothing to do with it, its based on win/lose.
