lol teeside was/is weak, when i used to play , top ranked uk server had about the top 12-20 uk players(only on xstats mind but still, way WAY ahead of teeside rankings, WAY), either way, i was top on that. but i got bored, slow tactical tourneys didn't interest me, neither did most clans playing on public servers and using private teamspeak to ghost which i found out playing with 6 different clans very briefly before leaving then eventually giving up. I personally just didn't want my clan people to cheat and tell me where to expect people. theres going for a big score for the sake of a big score, and theres playing for fun. knowing where someone is, if they are coming for you and when they are gonna run around a corner kills any fun for me.
Judging by several past threads on ocuk there are dozens/hundreds of clans who think that is completely fine. which is why i gave up on clans and pretty much on playing, i was just bored.
AS for aiming , it occurs to me if you need a year to learn not how to aim well but to know where people will run where there heads are going to be and to move to perfectly cover the area's heads will be again, its just boring to me. I don't spend hours memorising where heads will be, or EVER follow the same path around maps. Hell purely because most of the so called top players do just that always being in ridiculous places and running at people when they don't expect it is pretty much the best tactic there is.
not really played in , a good 6 months i guess now, but i would assume ghosting is still ridiculous widely done, and the amount of people who wallhack but are very good at avoiding detection is massive also which all makes it so unappealing.
the people who get banned for wallhacking are idiots, they centre their crosshair on someone on the other side of the map follow them the whole way and shoot before they come out of a door. people who have a wallhack but watch them in the corner of the screen acting as if they are doing something else, and wait for them to get close and get them a split second after they come through a door are almost impossible to detect, so they don't often get caught/banned.
out of 6-8 clans i joined over a couple months they all ghosted and half of the guys in each clan wallhacked, of which i suspected only 1/2 of them before joining the clan. its extremely common.
Everyone who looks too good to be true IS to good to be true, but people didn't have balls to start banning those people years ago and now its so common its ridiculous. the most basic cheating though, ghosting, when basically all games have ingame voice chat, the need for teamspeak during a game is simply not there, TS should be on the banned punkbuster list so it can't be used. i can't think of a single reason ingame voice chat, which works perfectly, isn't sufficient, it lets people alive talk to each other, and dead people talk to each other, simple as that.
but still prefer mixes/matches at cs:s
But some people are just amazing at the game.
