I'm a bit confused on sidestep shooting. As far as I know you press the opposite movement key to quickly get your accuracy up. Do you do that by holding the opposite key with the current key to stop or do you just take your finger off your movement key and quickly tap the opposite key?

I'm not sure you immediately remove the gradual slowdown if you hold both keys.

Right. I just tested it and tapping the opposite key instead of holding it seems like the way to go.

Here's a great video I found on it too:

I think I'm gonna start using the deagle again just to see how it plays out. It feels like the aim is a little bit tighter now, just enough to make it somewhat viable if you can be patient with it.

I personally wouldn't bother because the deagle is useless on mid-long ranges because of the ridiculously bad accuracy. You can't even predict where your shots are going at all.

Is a sensitivity of 2.5 ingame at 900dpi considered high?

DareToSlack posted:

That's a 7.27 inch/360, which is definitely high.

Cut your ingame sensitivity in half (14.5 inch/360), play some deathmatch to get used to it, and see how much your aim improves.

Well, there goes all my muscle memory to waste. Do I gradually decrease my sensitivity in certain time periods until I hit my desired point or do I just drop my sens to 1.25, suck it up and get used to it?

DareToSlack posted:

Just drop it. Your current settings are low enough that you're still using your arm to aim instead of just your wrist, so it shouldn't take much to get used to. Turning 180 or whatever will be a little more effort, but tracking those headshots should feel much easier pretty quick.

Alright, thank you. I just read about how you should use your mouse's native DPI, so I dropped it to 800, and set my in-game sens to 1.5. That's 13.6 inches, shouldn't be too bad, yeah?

I wouldn't mind if they'd refine the horrible grenade throw animation and the linear altfire strengh adjustment animation.

Oh, and the horrendous tec-9 animation too. It's a shame to see them neglect animation quality like they did with TF2.

Anyone else getting weird random fps drops since this update? My FPS used to be a rock solid >120, now it drops to 45 randomly on some maps then kicks back to something like 70-80.

I got this but some dude told me to put -threads 4 in launch options and it helped. I think its based of cores, not sure though.

Haha hot drat it actually did kick up my fps almost back to normal. Thanks dude.

Yeah I was on ak-colt trying to deag from t to ct spawn and it wasn't working at all, really. Was hoping for reincarnated CS:S Deagle but nope :(

Funny. I never wanted it to be the piece of poo poo it is in CS:S, it'd just be nice if it, you know, actually registered a shot on stuff that aren't a few feet away from you.

All the shotguns ignore the accuracy penalty for jumping, so go hog wild with your bunny hopping nova/swag-7/sawed-off rushes.

I heard that's the same case with running, too. Is it?

Wait so do you rank/derank based on solely your wins/loses or is it also dependant on how well you do in matches? Some people say it's only on wins/loses and some people don't so I'm confused here.

The # of wins doesn't really matter. If you start consistently winning though you will rank up eventually.

Yeah well sadly I play in the EU region and I'm bound to be matchmade with russians all the time. Only 1 in 50 russians communincate in English.

e: just had a fun match where we lost 1-15 with some dude who was obviously walling woo gotta love EU

The best way to not get better is assume you're doing everything right and your teammates are causing all of your losses. You're as bad as your teammates, that's why you're ranked together.

I never said I'm not bad. I know I'm awful. But I do know I can communicate with my teammates using English, which is a must.

People will never face me with the knife, I think they can smell that I was a pro tf2 spy so they always run in the opposite direction. If you can rank down to silver it's pretty fun to dodge bullets and crouch jump your way to knifedom, just like in the good old days of The Specialists

I used to main scout in tf2, gave me some good muscle memory. Until I dropped my sensitivity recently in csgo.

I really like the new changes but I don't like the direction this is going with. I don't want them making totally new weapons as replacements for stock ones the whole time.

Also, I think the new aug scopes look pretty neat. :shobon:

Do pistols not get an accuracy penalty for moving like shotguns? I feel like I'm still pretty accurate while moving but being more accurate is always fun.

Anyone else been getting a really awful ping on all servers as of late? I mean I know my internet is poo poo and it randomly spikes but on a server where I get a ping of 130 it stays 130 until I join a team where it jumps to 180-200, and when I check the server info from the steam servers list it's 130.

This really fucks up playing the game because it causes rubberbanding.

I have more wins than you do and I'm a silver elite master. What am I doing wrong? I never deranked or anything, I was just always stuck in silver.
