CS:GO Discussion

I was wondering what the best thing everyone has gotten as mission rewards.

To my surprise I got an FN M4 Knight which is a bit of a change from the usual 10p rewards I usually get.
 
Good game last night, we really locked down the CT side of inferno even though we (I) were being quite agressive with it.
Think I fixed the rules that werent working properly too.

Cheers for the game last night, sorry I was fairly useless :( Going to take a while to learn the maps and the strats, coming from BF its brutal how quickly people go down.

Been playing a lot of DM and feel like my aim is coming on but as soon as I get into MM I always feel a bit lost as to what I should be doing. With only 20 hours played in CS I've got a lot to learn xD
 
The basics are not too complicated. As a CT, choose one of the bombs to defend or follow the order. Call when/if you make contact, run to help if the other bomb is getting rushed. As a T, follow the bomb or give it to someone else. Then just learn each map, particularly the fastest/safest access points and the camp/hiding spots for 1v1, 2v1 etc situations.

To expand please don't be one of those guys who as CT changes position without telling someone to switch with them, its annoying being halfway to A when you realise the B people got bored of B and are running behind you.

And yes as T generally stick with the bomb till you are confident enough to try and hold angles to keep map control and stop the CTs pushing behind and possibly get the 1st crucial pick.
 
I hereby vow to never play Dust II ever again. Terrible map, and it attracts the very lowest dregs of the CS community.
 
Played CS since the beginning, far too much but just recently tried GO.

Lag was wild, any server I tried. Ping appeared to be fine but I didnt have the netgraph on. Is it generally laggy on GO?

Any ideas?

Funny I was getting the worst lag I've seen in years over the weekend too, on a number of different servers, so I'm blaming that for my worst playing in a long time! In fairness, I was shooting people, who would kill me, and then there was zero damage done to them! Something was definitely up, but my connection seemed to be working outside CSGO, no idea what was going on, strange to get several dodgy servers, although, not all servers were bad for me. I had to stop p[laying the game, it just wasn't hitting people when I shot them, awful lag spikes too.
 
Yeh fun games, cheers! I will try to get on later tonight. Couple of rules I learnt when starting to play CSS/CSGO:

1) Stop re-peeking! If you have peeked and spotted an enemy, don't immediately re-peek to try and pick them off. Chances are, if they have spotted you they will have their crosshair lined up and their attention will be focussed. Instead, wait for teammates and commit properly or delay the push so they think you are taking another route. There are exceptions but generally being patient keeps you alive.

2) If you don't think you can hold an angle/area because it's being pushed heavily, don't try and be a hero and go for a 5 man spraydown. Instead, shoot once, if you miss then fall back and repeat. This even applies if you have to abandon the bomb site. If you miss your shots it doesn't matter, so long as your alive and able to support your team mates when re-taking the site.

You're getting cut off because you want to leave the Kingdom? :p

Try changing your region, maybe it's set to the US or something. I've had no issues with lag whatsoever, just the random crash every now and then in the lobby or when loading a map.
 
I'll maybe mess with some settings

Source was perfect as was every other game. It was really poor over the weekend for me but I've not tried it in years

Point 1 I have been consiously reminding myself to do, or not so recently after countless re-peek efforts, "Just to have a pop at them.", had ended badly.

This sums me up, must stop multiple peeks. Getting better though and enjoying the game.

I'm terrible for re-peeking :) Must cut down.

Experienced the same myself. While it was searching ,the console displayed the number of matching servers found but did not manage to get on any one of them and eventually game with bots was created. So was not sure if it was due to my connection or the CS servers in general.
