CSGO Sticky thread

Welcome to derankville, where games suck, and Valve is annoying. I think I'm going to start playing BF again. Played some BF1. Did good for a first time playing. Played BF4 last night, was spectacular.

Sounds lekker bru
 
Thanks for the awesome game @Fulcrum29 You played well. Was my first time playing Overpass, so had to learn angles as we played.

I played relatively bad, out of practice. See what happens when you hang up your mouse.

The opposition were lekker salty.
 
I've noticed tonight playing on cache that my issue is, I'm far too aggressive on CT. It works on T, but on CT I get my ass handed to me. I need to stop pushing just to get more information. Also need to start playing with the normal M4 as the one with the silencer sucks when you get rushed.
 
I heard a comment the other day that taught me a lot. We were playing and losing because the CTs were pushing. The comment was - these must be Silvers. It does seem as there is a difference in playing style between new silvers and experienced players.

But I learnt that sometimes it works if the other team is cautious and afraid of deranking. I try and remind myself not to hunt the Ts. They will come to me or time will run out. But there is satisfaction in slaughtering them ASAP too . It seems to depend on the style of the other teams game.
 
Howzit guys, I've got a bit of a problem. I've been playing CSGO for a while now, and whilst I'm pretty decent at DM and arms race, I have yet to play a competitive match. I get impatient after 20+ minutes of waiting and go back to other game modes. Any tips on finding games? Preferably local ones since its *** playing on overseas servers. Also, none of my mates really play, so I can't rely on them inviting me to matches.

it is sometimes easier to find a game if you queue with friends.

What maps are you queuing with?

Yea you need to adapt your play style to the enemy's, but typically as CT you want to hold site, not hunt the Ts.

It depends, CSGO is a situational game, when the situation is warranted or there is an achievable opportunity then CT may push, also there is nothing wrong with a lurk on CT side. I only oppose these gameplays when I don’t know what the player wants to achieve, I live and die by results. When I know my team, and know what a player wants to achieve, his purpose and goal within a team then I welcome those decisions since it is ‘our’ game plan.

It always comes down to communication. I don't like individualistic players. Believe me, sometimes when you see a carry on the scoreboard it is because they pick these players.
 
Since the last 2 updates were done last week, my CS hasn't been working on Win 10. It kept saying it's running in the background (i.e. green color on the menu), but it doesn't load the game. I did run the verify files and it has no issues.
 
That's odd man. Have you tried changing settings to force it to run in windowed mode? Also, are you using 1 or 2 monitors?

You are not a bad player, you do have the potential. See how Bunny have grown into the game.

The M4, it comes down to your playstyle. I play with the silenced M4 due to having more consistent headshots in succession than any other weapon in the game. Any rush can be controlled, you only need to know your position better and how to move. I still play too loose sometimes, but it is because I YOLO too much... :whistle: Frustration ;)

Yeah I don't really have mates who play that often, but I guess I can try find okes in the DMs who seem to be on my level and make friends there.

What maps are you queuing with?

Mirage, Inferno, Cache, Overpass, Nuke, Cobblestone, Train, DustII.
 
Casual aint just casual to me. Many a game is won by me using my ears and warning others about incoming hostiles "T coming thought marketplace to CT spawn", "T at top of hole", I engaged verbally with my team mates

Add me on steam, we can jam tonight. Urban_bunny
 
Man, I haven't Infernod in ages, seems I only catch Mirage, Train and Nuke, with a sprinkling of Cache.

I find Train a lot of fun.

Which maps do you guys find fun?

Depends. If it's casual, all maps are fun. Comp, there is really just one map that I play... Dust 2. Been dipping into new maps since playing with Bunny, Prod and Fulcrum, but if I'm solo queueing I generally stick to Dust 2. Overpass is a fantastic map. Just need to learn the callouts on Overpass and Cache.
