Just had a teamstack where I was with four dudes who decided to throw four molotovs at spawn so you'd have to run through it. Every round possible. When I mentioned this in global to vent they decided I was too uncool for them and votekicked me out. God bless Counter-Strike.

What are some tips for Ts on Inferno? Playing CT comes pretty natural but I'm lost when I have to push; it feels like I'm constantly gambling at every corner, and I only have so many nades. I've only played it a handful of times so far but I'm noticing each team performing noticeably better when they're on the CT side, so I suspect I'm not the only confused noob.

Buy a p90, rush apartments every round. Alternate between going through the stairs and jumping from the haystack.

Negev in apartments is hilarious. Basically always buy a negev.

For Inferno I feel as though the best advice is to learn smokes and flashes. I think Inferno has surpassed maps like Train and Nuke as being most dependent on a) a team full of good players, or b) a team who knows some basic strats. If you're just playing regular MM, I'd learn how to do stuff like smoke off CT & coils at B, how to molotov new box and some effective flashes. Same for A, learn how to smoke arches, balcony, pit, etc. Lately I've been smoking off quad and picking arches from middle, because that's the spot on the map where someone always plays and has the fewest spots to actually play from, so you'll be a lot more successful than trying to pick in B or from balcony. Getting the first kill on A will also force one of the B players to drop to, at least, CT spawn, which opens up more chances.

I had a lot of success rushing anywhere with a p90 in inferno. Both sides. Highest chicken killing potential too.

Always fun to own the mid on both sides. And nade the underpass. Finally got my ten MM wins and ranked at Silver 4 despite getting MVP a lot. What were other people's initial rank? I'm in China so hard to find a team, just trying to friend those I like playing with and see how we go from there.

When do operations end? Bravo ends today and I have work 6 central and I'm a mere two hours short on getting a gold coin. I figure it dies at 10 pacific like all Valve things but if it lasts through the evening I'll be happy. Only got three or four matches this weekend due to matchmaking being down or whatever was up.

I would guess that I have played more solo MM games than anyone posting in this thread and overall I think it's a good experience. The bad games suck, but griefing like you mentioned is pretty rare and everything else can be solved by just muting people. Queue on, brother

Was playing cbble yesterday (GOTTA GET THEM BRAVO HOURS) and got paired with a team of 4. We were on CT and I was taking care of Long A / Cat - we were getting rolled round after round because the Ts would just rush to A, I would spot it early and call it, but the one of them watching mid was up in the stupid little sniper windows and three were at B. Nobody would rotate until bomb was planted, at which point they couldn't break into A and we would just lose. After like 7 rounds in a row of this I called them out on not rotating and they votekicked me.

I've been griefed here or there, but the main thing I've seen about random teammates in these game is that joe pubstar the solo queue guy is always extremely passive. They never peek anything, and just bait like crazy to protect their precious KDR. I gave up caring about this awhile ago and just take it that my 'entry-fragging' will improve playing with a bunch of babies like this. Another thing is on CT, if your teammmate is wallin', and you ask him where he wants to defend, he'll often say "uh.. i'll just roam or do whatever." That's fine. Let him do that, he'll probably carry the team easily. If you are covering a tough assignment and he isn't helping, don't sweat it. You'll be fine.

Nuke and Inferno are brutal maps T side mostly because a lot of players are afraid of dying and/or going first in a push to put a crack in the CT team's holds on areas. If you got a team with confidence and little fear of fighting people set up on those tight corridor peeks than you're gonna start winning rounds instead of being picked off one by one. You're gonna have that in a lot of maps, really, but on chokepoint maps like Inferno and Nuke, the effect is exacerbated.

Pretty harsh community. I joined a 10 man and they all yelled at me for having too much tai chi.  Nah, first game with some guys. Kcer introduced me to what you guys were all about. Joined a 10 man right after and finally played with some people who knew what they were doing. Pretty enjoyable game that ended in a tie. Pretty nice group, looking forward to playing with you guys more.

I watched some pro CSGO the other night for the first time and one of the most striking/impressive things was how effectively they were able to rush through choke points as 5 on maps like inferno and clean poo poo up.

Everyone knows where they're supposed to look on entry and what corners to check, everyone knows where the flashes/smokes are going to go off and what they cover. It's easy to clear a lane if there are only a couple of places the CTs can effectively fight from during a play. Anyone can do it, just takes a lot of practice, coordination and confidence. Confidence is huge in CS.

It's "easy" to do this when people don't get scared because a bullet went past them, HE hit them, or a flashbang flew in their face. Also, when your teammates know how to flash/smoke... like a guy gets designated as the flasher one as smoker etc etc

Most pubbies in MM also have a "no YOU go first" so that they can mop up the low-HP enemies that you don't finish off. So they will run to a breach-point and then duck to cover and wait for the team to run past. I find rousing speeches during pre-round to the effect of "WE ARE STARVING AND THE BODIES OF THE ENEMIES AT B ARE GOING TO BE OUR BUFFET DON'T YOU loving STOP UNTIL THE TABLE IS FULL" somehow has a much better effect for team morale than "stop baiting and rush B, nerds"

I'm looking to try and put a team together. I have a lot of evening freetime coming up (EST) and my interest in competitive CS is working its way back into my brain. Goonman is fun and all but I really want to try and find a group to get some continuity. I used to be pretty good back in the day and am slowly getting back to that point. If anyone has any interest please link your steam profile. edit: Not that it really matters but I've managed to work my way up to Master Guardian Elite doing random matchmaking for an extremely rough idea of my skill level. hello internet fucked around with this message at 15:38 on Jan 22, 2014 |

Considering that it already costs more than a Famas or Galil and that it doesn't get the SMG kill bonus I think the P90 is balanced just fine. If you are getting killed by idiots that just P90 rush, play passive/farther back than usual. You will outrange them with a rifle, just don't let the P90 guy get right up in your face.

Just out of curiosity, can hacking software let people 1click heads with the AK while at full sprint, or the infamous jumping AWP guys? This isn't in reference to anything in particular, other than watching Anders get demolished repeatedly in matchmaking. But anyways, I get that hacking software can compensate for recoil- it's static. But I thought that the inaccuracy from running and shooting a rifle was randomized- that some hacking program couldn't know where to shoot to compensate?

Depending on the hack it could always just send a packet to the server that says you are not moving at the exact moment you shoot, so the movement penalty wouldn't matter.

40 OZ posted:Just out of curiosity, can hacking software let people 1click heads with the AK while at full sprint, or the infamous jumping AWP guys? The seed it uses to calculate randomness due to inaccuracy is synchronized between the client and server (maybe obvious but anyways I just happened on the code yesterday). It's simply a matter of grabbing that value from memory and sending a packet to the server that says the client is aiming with the exact opposite offset. It's extremely simple to do.

I wonder why you couldn't make a hack that just intercepts packets between the client and server and fixes the direction you're aiming. Completely undetectable to VAC, and if you were running CS:GO inside a VM and intercepting packets on the host it would literally be undetectable by anything edit: if you sell a cheat that does this you owe me some of that dirty money

There are actually hacks that do that, and Valve actually owns a patent on a tech for countering that kind of method http://www.google.com/patents/US20060247038

A physical little cheatbox that will fix your aim.

What is the appropriate way to take B site from Apartments as T on Mirage? I always have to push push push my team to check van fast and push out window at the same time, not sit around in apartment letting them rotate. Is there a more vetted method?
