A similar, yet not quite as perfect, thing happened to Hoods in a Goonman the other day. He was last alive as CT with the bomb down, kind of trapped in a corner waiting for exits with just a pistol, when the bomb exploded, it literally fired an AWP right at him, he was able to grab and save it. Special deliverys are fun.

The server selection in CSGO is much better in my opinion. In CSS you had to pick from rpg/dm nonsense or super hard maps and in GO there seems to be plenty of servers without stupid mods with maps of all skill levels

I've been playing on the server as meow meow recently, has anyone noticed obvious things I should fix in my game play to get better? I can find some demos if that someone would be willing to go through one but I figured I'd ask if there is anything obvious first. Also if you see me doing something dumb in game or something to fix let me know, I'd appreciate it.

There was plenty of foreshadowing when "always check toxic" hid on toxic every other round. That was a really fun game. UMPs are really useful on Nuke. :allears:

It was nova 2-4 range. They should know better.

Is there a big enough difference between SMGs to really matter? Like it seems like I can just buy the p90 and not care rather than think about it. I sometimes see people chatting up certain SMGs but they all seem kinda samey to me. Same goes for shotguns. I think one of them (the xm one?) is automatic, but that's about all I can tell. I have the spreadsheet for their damage, but it seems like at the pace of CSGO the time to kill won't vary a whole lot and will come down more to aim rather than having the Best Gun. The only thing that makes a real difference is armor and even then if they have armor you probs want your standard rifle anyway?

P90 is good cause of the deep clip and armor penetration. Bison is great for 2nd round cause of deeper clip and I love how easy its recoil is to control. Feels like a baby Negev sometimes.

mp9 and mac10 blow for their own reasons, don't worry about them. Just buy a CZ.

UMP and MP7 are ok-good. I love my UMP because of the caramel skin, and its really easy to burst fire and poo poo. I don't know, the UMP and mp7 trade 1 tick of damage vs accuracy. Make whatever you want of that.

I used to use the UMP a lot in silvers, but now I pretty much either use the Bison or P90 for the SMGs.

---

Sawed off and the mag shotguns rule hardcore close range but are unforgiving if you gently caress up. Nova can medium range if you're being stupid or can't pull our your pistol. (I loving love nailing headshots with the Nova, feels good man.)

Auto is mixed. I suck with it. The recoil compensation might help, since it pulls left AND right between rounds.

Mac10 owns and I will kill you next time I see you in a goonman, with an accurate jumping headshot burst.

Also god the amount of times I've tried to Sawed-Off someone and shot over their head or shoulder is embarassing.

Agreed on sawed-off.

I probably just suck with mac 10. I also never goonman cause I can't handle getting screamed at which is what I imagine happens 100% of the time.

You're losing out on the bonus cash if you pick up a P90 and could've gotten the kills with any of the other SMGs, for one thing.

MAG-7 will make you look like an arsehole when you reload it with 3 shots remaining and are hoping for a quick barrel-being-filled animation at least once in your life but the damage is amazing. I prefer the sawn-off to the Nova on T because it makes a noise that sounds like a 90s car door getting slammed on your target's head.

Sawed-off is even more unforgiving than the other shotguns, but it's worth noting that it holds a significant advantage in armour penetration. The Nova's smaller spread may provide some extra effective damage, but in practice I seem to get a lot more OHKs with the Sawed-off (and if I don't get the OHK I also die a lot more).

You're supposed to use the CZ to kill exactly one motherfucker dead and then either take his gun (pistol / eco rounds) or switch back to your primary and reload ("got loads of cash so I add a pistol to my full buy" rounds). It's not a gun you actually hold on to.

That said, I too have put the P250 in my $300 T slot, because they already have the Tec-9 as a solid desperation spam-gun that isn't much more expensive, but they don't have anything short of the Deagle that you can use to try and headshot armoured enemies. While for CTs it's the opposite, the 5-7 is a fine cheapo all-around gun so the CZ-75 can take the $300 slot as the "oh poo poo gotta kill this one dude fast" option.
