You're not McVey.

Also I played casual for a bit today and ran into two triggerbotters in two separate matches. Sometimes they couldn't hit poo poo, but other times they would turn a corner and get either an instant headshot or snap exactly to where the person was and spray them down. Hopefully there isn't a new cheat going around, since I rarely have run into cheaters in casual before.

i think people are likely to test run their cheats in casual because it's very likely they won't get reported at all. don't play casual if you can help it :v:

I need help. I need to play a ranked game, but I've heard too many horror stories of queueing with 3 Brazilians and a Peruvian and just can't bring myself to do it. I need someone people to ranked with me. I'm unranked, but I think I was silver 4. It can't be anyone too high because then I can't queue with them. I think I should get a rank again after playing one game, but honestly I haven't really played enough ranked to figure out how ranking works.

I prefer casual over MM to be honest. I can gently caress around a lot more in casual.

I could but MM entails more risk of getting kicked (I usually Solo queue) and risk of losing my rank. I realize rank means nothing but I still don't want to lose it. It's probably just an ego thing.

I had a casual lobby two nights ago with one guy doing random car/poker trivia while giving skins away. Once he ran out of skins a bunch of other people volunteered some of theirs. Nobody was even googling the answers, everyone was real friendly and having a good time. :shobon:

I don't have the best keyboarding ability, meaning that the only thing I can do instantly is WASD. What are some essential buttons to bind to the mouse? Right now I have crouch, walk, and jump bound, as the three buttons CS recognizes on my mouse.

It's probably different for everyone. Myself personally, mouse3 is buy menu, mouse4 is reload, and mouse5 is voice chat.

Mouse 4 is a chat macro. Mouse 5 is also a chat macro. Every mouse button just spams "your bad".

Mouse 4: voice (in game)
Mouse 5: voice (mumble)

I like to bind jump to mousewheel if I'm drunk playing scoutzknivez, otherwise I just have it set to default.

Walk, crouch, jump and reload are probably the most important if you have a hosed up hand or something. Maybe +use if you have trouble opening doors while moving?

If you resolve not to AWP you could use right click as an extra button

Yup.

I can reload fine, I figured out how to bind crouch+walk+toggle grenade and it seems to work. Now to actually know how to use grenades well is the next step.

Thanks for the super awesome Goonman guys and directing my stupid rear end. Good vibes :cool:

I do pretty ok as long as I rebind poo poo to my mouse. I'm never gonna be noscope mlg pro but that's ok.

And not hosed up, per se, just missing my forearm and hand on the left.

Ok I'm genuinely curious about the logistics of this, when CS'ing you do anything with your left arm at all or is everything done with the right hand?

I figure if you've got a mouse with enough buttons on it, you could bind spacebar to "go forwards" and press that with your left, and then just run pretty much everything else on the mouse. All you really need is shoot (mouse 1), zoom (mouse 2), scroll wheel to cycle weapons/nades, crouch (mouse 4) and jump (mouse 5). You need strafe left and right too but either you need some more mouse buttons, or one of those scroll wheels that you can nudge left and right maybe?

Movement, crouch, jump, weapon switch. Ideally you want each nade bound to a button, but I just hit 4 and cycle through cuz I know how many presses I need at any given moment. Scrolling through all the weapons is real bad as a side note.

// buy binds
bind f1 "buy p250"
bind f2 "buy ssg80"
bind f3 "buy famas; buy galilar"
bind f4 "buy m4a1; buy ak47"
bind f5 "buy awp"
bind f6 "buy flashbang"
bind f7 "buy smokegrenade"
bind f8 "buy hegrenade"
bind f9 "buy molotov; buy incgrenade"
bind f10 "buy vest"
bind f11 "buy vesthelm"
bind f12 "buy defuser"


I recommend adding that to your autoexec for buying quickly at start of round.
