CSGO Sticky thread

I'll be on around 7 for warm-up / kd buffering.

Some guy in the comp last week asked me if my account was hacked...the 150 000 kills in 700 hours surprised him :p

I had to check my stats seeing as how many kills one gets in Arms Race and all, I'm 56 kills away from 265000.

I concluded that you are an deranker, or an everyday troll. You have the aim, probably the best aim between everyone participating in this thread. Soul has an Deadshot aim, but you must be William Cross.

easy now...I'm not a Pakistani cricketer:p I don't try to play badly...sometimes **** just happens. Usually when I'm on a map I'm not comfortable on or if I don't know what to do.

I want to play a lot more and get some consistency into my game but life's in the way sometimes.
 
I am in Cape Town. Tried playing on the hotel's WiFi but my mouse was laggy. Changed sensitivity but it didn't help. What else can I do?

Is the mouse powered by the USB port or does it have batteries?

If it uses batteries, take the batteries from any other convenient appliance you may have brought with you and try those.

:whistle:

You'll need to get a way to view the network stats in-game ... that will show you your ping and fps, which are the two most important factors for playability. FPS will be controlled by your computer, but ping is dependent on your internet connection (and would be my guess for the lag you're experiencing).

The easiest thing to do is just connect via a 3G/LTE hotspot cast from your mobile phone and see if the situation improves. If it does, then you know it's the hotel wifi and it's not gonna get better.

Why do you warm up with bots?

It's fast...in casual, time gets wasted between rounds, when dead.

It's also even...the same experience each time. So I know pretty quickly if my hands are working well. Online there's ping and other players' skill levels that don't guarantee I am where I think I am.

Can you help a noob develop a good warm-up programme with bots? Nothing at your level, just something to get my eye in a little better than a deathmatch bun-fight.

What do you find works the best? Running an offline game on Dust 2 with bots, if you reckon you're going to be comping on Dust 2? I know there are all sorts of community training maps too, but I haven't found a good one yet.
 
^, the warm-up I do is purely aim...the bots don't have any neat tricks to teach me about equipment use or map knowledge (though when set to hard, they shoulder-peek and strafe while shooting which makes it interesting).

So because they're not really people doing interesting things, the map doesn't really matter (imo). You might find value in playing on a comp map with bots but I didn't find that to be the case (admittedly, I didn't want to run around a big map so haven't done much time on comp maps with bots). The map I use is shortdust in deathmatch mode with 8 bots on the team opposite mine and 3 on my team. You can set them to the difficulty you're comfortable with but hard is probably the minimum you want to use. Even then they do dumb stuff but at least they're fast and aggro and stacking the teams means you get to play a lot of duels very quickly. I used some commands to make the game ignore the team imbalance - the article below explains that in more detail plus has tips about taking it further into proper practice territory. You can experiment with that and let us know :)

Nice, thanks for that detailed guide Prod :) Gotta do something to get better, and I honestly can't concentrate in deathmatches with idiots playing music or shouting. Also the sheer number of AWPers in an average deathmatch is as frustrating as hell, it's totally different to comp's restrictive economy where AWPs are treated like gold.

100 hours Arms Race and 100 hours Deathmatch.

Also just start muting people that play music etc.
 
Lol, a Nova 3 tried to school me. de_dust2, they take A with a strong push, we quick rotate and lose two tango’s which rotates back through to B. I stay A and my only other teammate rotate to B. When I spot them on the radar pushing through tunnels I start to auto rotate. At that moment, I received tutorial 101 on how and when to rotate, got lectured. Needless to say, my timely rotate won us the round. Boy oh boy.
 
I don’t know how many here owns Dying Light, but the devs has released a statement that they will soon launch new content, Content Drop #0, and will be adding 10 gratis DLCs to the game over 12 months. Those like playing zombie games, I will gladly do a coop as soon as the content starts to release. Lekker zombie game die.

The game does 4 player coop.

I just watched a game Wolf played with players on his level...ma se hare. The skills.

Yah, hard game that. I was a bit tired and I seemed to be excluded on the comms. The TS (or Discord) conundrum…

Then I had to play another one, a queue against my prior teammates. We won though, and we didn’t even communicate. The best is we were down 0-7 and then the LEM in me came out to play.
