Give him a few months. He just stood in for pyth in NiP and did pretty well, so that probably garnered some interest in him. He may pull a XANTARES, though, and decide that his team's success is more important than his individual success and stay in Epsilon.

Really? I think Krimz is probably the best site anchor in the scene, Flusha is great at making dumb plays work, znajder is a solid vet to anchor, and Pronax is reportedly the best IGL ever.

I think JW is highly overrated and doesn't deserve his status, but even he does great plays.

They look fantastic on paper imo.

edit: honorable for xanteres to stick with his team, I know I would totally sell out

its not that xantares is loyal to space soldiers in particular, its just that he only speaks turkish and, thus, the only team he could play on outside of turkey is optic because tarik could translate

When was he convicted? I could be wrong, but I thought it was just people finding him suspicious and no-one actually having any proof

RLewis is a oval office but it's kind of apples and oranges here, and there's really nothing beyond hearsay as to what actually happened. Although with his issues I can totally believe he made a mostly unprovoked attack on that guy.

Overwatched. Abandoned the account, changed its name and made a lot of fake steam names so you can't see it's him.

Can see his SteamID here.

And proof he played on this account on ESEA.


In my opinion Epsilon is a pretty tainted team, especially back around the time emilio was VAC banned. There's a fair slice of sub-top Swedish pros who were probably dabbling in cheats at the time. It's basically never just one person in a scene, usually there's a few players together in on something.

The only way choking someone could be provoked is if he got physically assaulted first, which we know didn't happen. RL is just hosed dude.

He was provoked by being in the presence of a dota player. Not far enough imho.

Heh, played dust 2 on my silver 4 account last night and the other team abandoned after 10 matches. 10-0 and i was 18-2. They were salty as gently caress and were a pre made.

if they're using show lag compensation does this actually have an in-game effect? wouldn't the server side bullet also be offset the same amount as the hit box? idk all the details of that stuff.

i'm glad you agree with me that that dude should gently caress off and be ejected from the community's limelight, but csgo has less integrity than the NFL because at least Ray Rice was punished at least a tiny bit for sucker punching his girlfriend in that elevator.

no it just shows hitboxes and impacts for some reason, but after things have been lag compensated. These are two stationary people so it changes nothing

Pre-Release Notes for 9/09/2016 posted:

The following changes are in the “1.35.4.7rc” CS:GO Beta depot.

[Gameplay]
– The first-person camera of players, spectators, and demo-viewers is no longer allowed to rise higher than their third-person head. This should prevent first-person players from being able to see from perspectives where their third-person head is not also exposed.
– When a player’s first-person camera is adjusted, bullets fired from both their client and server-side locations are also adjusted to emit from the corrected position.
– If for any reason the third-person player animation lowers a player’s head beneath the client’s first-person camera, the client’s first-person camera is lowered to stay at or under the height of their third-person head. This means that the third-person motion of the player is now represented more accurately from the first-person perspective.
– Third-person landing recovery animations are now weighted based on altitude traversed and duration in-air. Players landing from small jumps or falling from lesser heights will play more subtle landing animations.
– The anti-crouch-spam system has been changed to use degrading speed, instead of logging keypress-count. As before, the more often players crouch, the slower they will rise or lower. But this should now prevent bugs where players would instantly stand, or lose their crouch-spam penalty by moving a tiny amount. If players crouch even more, eventually they will just stay standing up.
– First-person and third-person crouch speed is now more closely related. The third-person player lowers more quickly to match the first-person representation.
– Players landing in crouch positions play a more subtle landing animation that raises their third-person head less noticeably.

[Misc]
– Lag compensation system will now reliably restore pose parameters responsible for animation layering which makes server-side hitboxes for lag compensated players better match client-side rendered models. (Thanks, /u/Spurks)
– Fixed a bug where player body pitch could improperly rotate the entire player entity inside lag compensation processing.

If I understood what most of this means, I'd say it's a pretty good update.

TLDR: headglitching isn't as good. Also your model while jumping will be accurately reflected by your perspective. It wasn't before.

You can opt into the beta branch for it.

e: Never mind, only works offline since the Valve servers aren't running it yet. I guess it's just placebo effect.
