Wonder what maps are getting in next since O: Bravo is ending in a week.

Any chance of the de_tuscan remake those guys did or is the original mapmaker still missing / dragging his feet about porting it to GO?
de_toscan is good, I've got no problems with it. It's probably 'too ugly' to be straight added to matchmaking and would have to be prettied up.

The first kill this video is one of the most :drat: kills I've gotten since being born and it's because med/high sens allows for really fun shots and super aggressive play. I like that

Yeah but med/high sensitivity to you and I is a 360 of like 10", not 2".

I would hardly call 10"/360 high sensitivity.

It's a high sensitivity. 2" is stupid, 10" is high.

I mean it obviously works for you but it's still high.

If you don't have much playtime in and are still in the Silvers you'll probably have a bad time. Spectate a couple of games before you jump in just to see what you're dealing with.

12 bullets vs 100. This is a textbook "going in one-by-one" failure.

Not even that, they could have just held a few positions around the site and waited for him to enter but noooope gotta get them kills. They knew where he was, there are only two places he could exit kitchen, they just had to wait a bit. The last two could have even set up an easy crossfire but they both play the same spot.

You even see this in a lot of NA pro games where it's always challenge challenge challenge with little patience.

iBP > Titan for ESEA Grand Finals
16:9 de_season
16:14 de_dust2

15:19 de_cache
16:11 de_nuke
16:14 de_inferno

Nice to see them win it as they've been often regarded as chokers on LAN and NAs #2 team. Plus they were up against the #1/2 team in the world with easily 2 of the top 5 players in it. They've got some great players on their team, seem like genuinely nice guys and stream a lot on twitch. Hopefully this provides a good boost for NA CS.

Now we just need to get Cache and Season into the rotations of other tournaments or it's gonna be CS:Inferno Offensive all over again at EMS.

I watched some pro CSGO the other night for the first time and one of the most striking/impressive things was how effectively they were able to rush through choke points as 5 on maps like inferno and clean poo poo up.

Everyone knows where they're supposed to look on entry and what corners to check, everyone knows where the flashes/smokes are going to go off and what they cover. It's easy to clear a lane if there are only a couple of places the CTs can effectively fight from during a play.

Anyone can do it, just takes a lot of practice, coordination and confidence. Confidence is huge in CS.

"If I manage to ambush this guy and kill him [with a silenced weapon] before he can even shout a warning, the rest of his team should be left clueless about where or what I am" is a very natural player expectation and there are entire gaming genres built around it, so it's perfectly understandable that people would like it to work that way in multiplayer shooters as well.

What other strategic round based shooters does this? I can't think of any. It's crazy to not want that in CS. ESEA did it for CSGO in its PUG games and it sucked.




But... we should do a no deadtalk goonman.

If mollys were $500 on CT I'd probably buy them more but then they'd be OP. I usually don't buy them T because I don't have a bind set up for them.

Dicking around in a not started pug with 1 AFK guy, while he's sitting in pit I'm tapping the Deagle at him (from top of ramp) with about a second inbetween each shot at center mass and it hit 1 shot. That's some pretty bad spread at range.

It's a deagle, you're shooting him from as far away as you're gonna get in a CS map, even the AK isn't pinpoint accurate at that distance.

Not a single person using them in a full ESEA pug. Interesting, because when they buffed the XM they were all over it, matches with only the XM being used etc.

Because it's no fun for anyone if all the CTs do is Aug up every round. Look at what happened at the EMS qualifiers today, or any MM match apparently. Who are you on Steam anyways?

Coleman posted:

Here's the way I look at it.

I enjoy PC FPSes, COD, Battlefield, CS, TF2, whatever, I enjoy them all. The reason I love CS over all the others is because there's no "press here to win the game" option. Everything has it's strengths and weaknesses over everything else. The AK has power, the M4 has accuracy. The AWP has OHK, but can't move while shooting. Other games, COD, Battlefield, you can point at one loadout and go "well if you wanna do well, just use that".

Right now in CS:GO, the Aug is a "press here to win the game" button. It's not fun, it's the exact opposite of why a lot of people play CS. I love 1.6, and I think CS:GO would be better off trying to be more like 1.6, but I also welcome changes. I'm interested to see how the new grenade throws effect gameplay. I've come to like Cache, and Season. I like that pretty much every SMG is viable, I like that the pistols all have their uses. But other than the big three, AWP, AK, and M4 (which are balanced without being the same), there was no one gun on any team from any weapon set that was just a guaranteed win, right now there is.

Sorry you can't cope with change, maybe try to play better??
