How do you play deathmatch with super low sens? I set mine to 10in / 360 and I was getting killed constantly because of people spawning every which way. I can see how it makes sense when you're in a real game but everyone practices with dm don't they?
A lot of people practice with bots on aim_map.

I believe the actual answer to your question is "the elbow and shoulder."

Try playing on DM servers with a lower player cap.

An average life on a good DM server should last around 10 seconds if you're doing well. The point is to constantly be in a firefight so every aspect of it becomes muscle memory, the downside is you're going to get shot in the back of your head a lot and there's absolutely nothing you can do about it.

I've been getting an odd problem lately when playing this. Randomly while playing a match the screen will go black and the sound will loop for about 20 seconds, then the game will come back and keep playing like nothing happened. I'm pretty sure I saw someone else mention this in this thread a while back, is this a problem with a known fix? Haven't found much by googling.

DM is just a practice/warmup tool, if you get popped in the back/side of the head, just shrug your shoulders and keep going. It'll happen sometimes. Don't worry about your K:D, it doesn't matter.

he's lying, you should preferably be pressing tab maybe every 1-2 seconds in a CS game to see if you're the best fragger

If your mic works you can just call other people faggots and tell them how poo poo they are at the game. If you can do that pretty well then you're a decent CS player.

I used to have this happen all the time in TF2 on my old Nvidia 260 card. I never found a fix for it myself, so I don't know what to tell you except that it stopped when I got a new card. v:shobon:v

I actually do this because I still have the bad habit from 1.6 of using the scoreboard to tell how many players are still alive. It sucks, I die all the time because of it.

I liked it when team colors were glitched so you had three teammates that were all blue.

It's a mixed bag because for one thing, I like that you can get an idea of WHO is next to you without looking, but then again I also get called "GREEN" constantly.

Edit:

Actually nothing was better than CS:S when team colors were always blue/red even if you were on T, all the CTs were highlight as blue names and poo poo. My dumb brain NEVER got used to it.

He was being facetious, man. I'm sure he knows that's there, but a lot of the old school players still tab to check who's alive most of the time.

ESL have a 4 hour timer on their site until a big announcement. It's probs to announce another 250k tourney but here's hoping it's something more interesting like, I dunno, they've collabed with valve and are announcing the removal of the CZ from the game entirely.
