So my smurf lost its MG2 rank because of inactivity so I thought I'd try and derank it last night further by going dualies only. Well, turns out I ended up 40 bombing one match with like 10mvps and top fragging the next match. MGs are really horrible.

Well fug. Guess it's SMGs between the eco rounds and final rounds.

While I do love the sawed off/mag7 for drop down I find that the auto shotty can be really good due to the rate of fire.

Also it might just be placebo but I feel the auto has a longer effective range.

The cries of the dead are terrible indeed; you should try not to hear them.
Worst update this game ever had was nerfing the MAG-7. It was the most fun weapon by miles, and competitive enough that you felt justified in buying it. Now it feels like a bit of a gimmick.

When I was completely new and terrible at this game I could one click people with the nova. now that I'm merely bad it seems to do some random amount of headshot damage from 80~110 and you get killed before you can refire. I don't remember seeing a patch note in the last year and a bit changing anything about the gun so I'm not sure what lesson to take here

They nerfed the nova, I was able to one shot people from d2 pit down long a to cross before the nerf. I miss my sniper shotty.

It seems straight up bad to me now. No range and very little damage. If you absolutely HAVE to buy a shotty (and it's never the right choice anyway imo), buy a nova. That sucker has good range and if you actually aim at the head it can one hit from further than any pistol sans deagle.

MAG-7 is better close range in terms of damage, and its armour penetration makes it more useful. Nova is better at slightly longer range because it has a better spread. Close range you're 50/50 to get a kill with a Nova body shot against armour, with a MAG-7 that kill is almost guaranteed.

If I'm buying a shotgun as CT, which is when I will probably buy a shotgun anyway, I'll buy the MAG. Nova is still decent though. More realistically I'll be buying Mac-10 or UMP though. Only a few select places a shotgun is a better buy honestly.

MAG7 on b drop on cbble is a lot of fun. It just sucks when you have to rotate because the rest of the map is so big.

I'd buy the nova more if it was less random, I think. Sometimes it'll do 50 damage point blank range, other times it'll somehow kill you from balcony while you're 100% health in the middle of A site inferno

You think it's random? I think it's a laser gun if you aren't moving when you fire.

i thought I was in the gambling thread, but this is easily a 50-50 game so betting the underdog is really the only good decision (the right decision is not to bet at all but where is the fun in that?)

Mag-7 and boost up to Cat and wait for some dummy to run up there and then you get a free AK.

This also works with the P250.

And the 5-7, that gun is my solution to any money issues. I feel just as comfortable holding a spot with that gun as I would using an smg.

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?

My stump kind of tapers into vestigal fingers (imagine what your fingers looked like at 3 months in the womb and you got it) so I kind of roll them around WASD to move, tapping Q or R when I need too. I also type that way and have a pretty awesome KPM :smug:

Faffel posted:

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.

after flashing instead of planting the bomb I think you might be right :v:. I need to find a good solution for switching outside of Q. Maybe those footpedals wouldn't be a terrible idea.

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

i personally just mash q and strafe my way around. i'd be surprised if people actually have a bind for quick switching....

I used to play Office all the time and bought an Orange DDPAT stattrak just so I knew how many I was killing. By the time I stopped playing it I had like 1200 kills it's ridiculously good on that level. Plus for some reason that skin jumped up to like 6 bucks from the 50 cents I paid for it?
