PirateBob posted:My question about why use smoke at long range wasn't answered, so I'll try again. You know smokes last a long time right? An easy example is smoking Window on mirage from T spawn. You throw it from spawn and by the time it’s blooming you and your teammates are coming out top mid. This means window isn’t a threat so you can work your way up cat or connector. Plus you threw the smoke from a place where the enemies can’t see you, so you won’t get killed trying to throw it.

Alright, I'll look into smoke throwing locations soon. The idea of throwing grenades into the sky to have them land at some specific spot I can't see was pretty foreign to me, that's why I asked for details. Thanks. Why do I have "Prime enabled" on the left side when I click Play in-game? I haven't bought it. I also got some care package a few days ago, which is supposed to be a Prime thing, I think?

if you bought csgo before it went free to play then you got prime status automatically

repiv posted:if you bought csgo before it went free to play then you got prime status automatically That explains it.  Thinkin bout movement... I gather that counterstrafing is important. Does that mean I should basically never run diagonally with w+d/w+a? I'm really used to doing that in other games. But it makes it much harder to counterstrafe. Should I be doing more running with just w and tapping s if I see someone, and also use exclusive a-strafe and d-strafe more?

I haven't played in a long rear end time but you don't want to try memorizing everything. Just learn a few of the important ones https://www.csgonades.com/maps/mirage

Yeah, if you’re gonna learn some set smokes I recommend just trying to learn a couple on each map, get to a point where you can throw them reliably in the moment to help your team. Don’t go crazy memorizing

if you expect to see an enemy soon you should put full cover between you until you are ready to peek fully with a strafe of a or d, as that is the easiest and most reliable counterstrafe to do and will maximize your angular velocity to your enemy until you're ready to shoot

hbag posted:remember that holding left click throws further than tapping left click, and if you right click you underhand throw it a couple feet in front of you I don’t think this is true afaik. There’s left click, right click, left+right, and right+left. If you run backwards (or forwards) during any of these you can change the trajectory, but standing still there’s no difference on how long you hold the click.

There are also two “medium” throws. If you hit left THEN right, it’s a different throw from right THEN left.

Pandaal posted:There are also two “medium” throws. If you hit left THEN right, it’s a different throw from right THEN left. This isn't true at all and you can see for yourself with the grenade camera in practice mode. L+R or R+L will both land in the same spot if they are released at the same time. It is inconsistent when you release one before the other because there is like a half second while the grenade switches to the new max or min distance. You can't count on the interim behavior and it's not worth trying to replicate in a match. hbag posted:you can smoke window from t spawn? seems a little far Yup, and it's really easy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HgnMM3Za_C0 I've been making a playlist of basic utility videos for the Sub.io group so you're welcome to use that as a starting point for useful things to learn. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLbKKPKIRKV907V0IS47YAS3iaEbQeEcQc

You can also google csgo smokes for some really handy sites that let you pick destination smoke and then common starting points

I don't care about rankings but skins and poo poo are cool The main attraction that I could see was that you get matched with other paying players. That should reduce the frequency of cheating somewhat. Because someone who cheats regularly isn't quite as likely to throw money into their account when that account might get banned.

i think the biggest "gently caress you" this game has is when you unbox a skin where you have to squint to notice any difference from the stock gun

Tried out the wingman mode in 3 games. First (and third) game was full of Russians who refused to speak English, teammate was useless, and I didn't even know you had to buy kevlar in this mode, so it all went south. Won the next 2 games. Pretty good fun. I like how it's more focused, with smaller maps. Feel like I should learn a few things about them though. I'm not familiar with Overpass or Vertigo in full size modes, let alone wingman. Are there any decent videos that show smoke locations etc for wingman? Edit: Also open to any other tips for wingman. I'm thinking I should buy kevlar for the pistol round, especially for CT. Not entirely sure about T. And, are "eco rounds" a thing? PirateBob fucked around with this message at 16:05 on Oct 9, 2023 |

Wingman is best to run with a buddy and practice pop flashes, in my experience. I think you'd struggle to get good lineups for smokes since the maps are so small, but if there are any, I'd suggest just learning smokes you can also use in competitive. We usually force every round to get some practice with lovely guns but generally try to stay at 1900 if you want full kit the next round. Kevlar is good to buy by default on all sides because of aimpunch, unless you have really good reason to buy a nice pistol. Raidboss setup, where one teammate buys kevlar and his teammate buys him a tec9 is really fun.
