Isn't DPI irrelevant? Hard to find much writing on it, but it seems like it doesn't effect modern mouse sensors negatively.

Yes, friend. Use 400 or 800 or whatever the hell you want. Use a sensitivity calculator like this one http://www.notalent.org/sensitivity/sensitivity.htm to find out how your sensitivity compares to others, if you give a poo poo.

In counter strike 1.6, a high DPI would cause the client to lock up mouse input because it was being over-loaded, so everyone used 400. In cs: go, I'm not sure if this happens at all, but if it it does it's at very high DPIs. There is no competitive advantage to DPI's higher than 400, as far as anyone knows, but some people use 800 just in case.

When I played 1.6 there were people who had to warm up the barrel of their deagle with a shot in spawn or they were convinced it was less accurate

Oh my god that is completely absurd. That's worse than people who believe that lower res makes it easier to shoot heads because the pixels are physically larger on screen.

I meant for higher DPI's but yeah. I use DPI basically to control my desktop sensitivity so I can leave my poo poo at 6/11.

Your chair isn't high enough and you don't have enough space to whip around your arm in, and you need to work on your self-confidence.

Make it so each knife kill charges up the blade. Once it reaches maximum you can enter Blade Mode and slice people into pieces.

So many expensive skins. So many missed shots.

Didn't even get a kill in warm-up. Shameful.

Edit: At least you're not the guy who bough an M4, kit, flash, and no armor at all.

bad positioning, bad crosshair placement. you also keep peeking awp angles wide. unless you have confidence in your aim or numbers, you really shouldnt peek. half of your deaths right there.

I feel like I heard this was an actual bug back in the 1.1ish era, but then again I was an idiot teenager at the time so whatever. I like shooting my guns anyway because I'm a fidgety person

Hey guys, a quick question for you. I'm a new player trying to get a start on some of the more advanced technical things.

What key binding (or method) are pro AWP'ers using so switch so quickly from their knife and back, and why are they doing this? I assume it's something related to animation canceling, but hitting Q seems like it would inhibit movement.

The only other binding that really got my interest was for the grenades.

Thanks

If you scope in fire with the awp it will re scope you after you work the bolt action. So you hit Q or your quick change bind twice to change weapons to cancel the scope coming back up

I use this in my autoexec:

bind "mouse4" "+sswitch"
alias "+sswitch" "slot2"
alias "-sswitch" "slot1"

Just something I jury rigged for the mouse thumb button, flick it and it hops to your main weapon, cancelling your scope. Hold it down and you have your pistol out.

Still unranked, getting matched up against MGEs, aim is super off today, got owned a lot and couldn't get my 2 wins in today. rip

My mouse (Logitech G500) just suddenly started freaking out mid-match too, like all the DPI settings got cut in half or something.
