I think there should be achievements for bad players. Like one for the first time you do more damage to the enemy than your own team with HE during a match, or one for not screaming a little and twitching your crosshair 50 degrees in a random direction when an enemy walks around a corner in front of you

Also add: Managing to be in an enemy's line-of-sight for more than 3 seconds and killing an enemy in your line-of-sight in under 3 seconds.

I've tried to eliminate movement but I just don't hit with the drat thing. Single taps seem to be only way but according to that gif I should be able to land a double fairly easy without compensating and a lot of shots just by adjusting vertically. I can hit a lot better with the other guns so it shouldn't be sensitivity, right?

Right now I'm losing just about every 1vs1 encounter unless the other player is low on health, regardless of what gun they are using. I'll dive back in tomorrow and figure out what I'm doing wrong.

Try the weapons course until you can get your time under 45 seconds or so

i do really like this game though, because at my current level of skill and care when my teammates are clueless it's funny, not rage-inducing. although i don't have a rank yet, not caring if we win at the end makes it a lot more fun than i imagine the alternative is.

So someone gave me a bunch of commendations in a match and was asking for returns... Aside from some smiley faces on your dashboard, is there any reason to have these? Or was this person just desperately seeking human interaction?

They don't mean anything. I'm pretty sure mcvey has "great teacher" commendations for just saying "wow kid never awp" over and over (actually this is probably good advice 99% of the time).

So it's literally just to stroke your own ego? I kinda feel sorry for the guy feeling the need for validation.

In other news, I've managed to bottom frag my way into Nova II games. One more win and I'll have my rank, and I'll be very surprised if it isn't mid silver. I can't click on heads very good, and I refuse to believe that watching streams has made my situational awareness make up for my lack of killing.

Every once in a while you'll run into someone who really cares about commendations and demands after every round that you'll commend him.

I have 30+ commendations on my main and I'm the most sarcastic, offensive, terrible-bind-using shithead that I know.

I do like giving commendations to friendly people I meet on matchmaking. When I don't forget to do it that is — I wish you could give them after the match is over.

Never seen anyone asking for one.

God I hope you know that's not a legit ace. The other team is clearly shooting over his head or not at him at all, pretty nice of them all told, but yeah. Unranked silver 1s.

It's not. His teammates were giving him a lot of poo poo for not playing well, so the opposing team decided to let him ace them to make him feel better.

"Thus," concluded Miyamoto, "you must give up everything you have to be my disciple."

Up 12-3 after CT round on Cache, other team had an abandon shortly before halftime and tried to surrender several times. Of course we end up losing 16-13 fml.

Nice ace, hilarious when he walks out. Annnnd he trashes on the game for 'retardation' everywhere in the game. What a poor sport. That's CS for you though.

The cries of the dead are terrible indeed; you should try not to hear them.
I've played CS so long that I've come to have, well, I won't call it a superstition, but a general belief in some kind of general compensation principle or some poo poo. If a team suffers a lot of unlucky rounds against them in one half, the next half things tend to balance out.

It's weird and sounds idiotic, but I really think it is true. Far too many games I've played where one team gets a statistically deviant score - say 7-8 as T on nuke, or 9-6 as T on train, only to have the next half have a similar result for the other team. And it isn't just something like one team is better as T/CT or whatever.

This only applies when both teams are quite evenly matched, of course. No idea why it happens, I guess a confluence of factors + karmic god of CS.

Life is meaningless
13-2 CT on Nuke only to have half time come and go and the other team subsequently 13-2 for the tie.

What I'm saying is gently caress uncoordinated T side Nuke
