Ricky Bad Posts posted:That's probably because mat_queue_mode defaults to -1, which means the mode is automatically selected. Your game was probably using mat_queue_mode 2 already. mat_queue_mode 1 has boosted FPS for people with processors that aren't i5 and i7. Worth a shot. e: It should also be noted that you need to put mat_queue_mode X in your launch options and not in the console. It only refreshes when the game boots so just putting it in your console does nothing. fennesz fucked around with this message at 23:19 on Feb 9, 2016 |

qhat posted:IMO a lot of bad vibes happen in solo queue when someone outright comes out and says something like OMG loving noob orange why didn't you do <insert arbitrary action>. Most of the time if you're abnormally polite when pointing out something, as long as your point holds water, people will be receptive. I was picking mid earlier when another guy walked into long and died to a push. He then called me out for not trading. "Uhh dude I wasn't even close to you" "gently caress YOU human being!" Hard to salvage vibes from that.

mcvey posted:2000 hours of GO, countless hours of goldsrc CS, still bad I think I like CS because it's the only shooter I've ever played online that I haven't dominated 99% of the matches I end up in. It's frustrating queuing into smurfs and sketchy dudes who wallbang you constantly but I guess that's part of the draw.

^ Yep. LG is pretty much the only chance two loving continents have at competing.

Can someone answer this question? Why and the ever loving gently caress is Thorin decked out like he's about to embark on a summit attempt on Everest for EVERY one of his loving videos? I could at least understand if all of his clothes had CSGO betting websites plastered all over them. Someone setup a GoFundMe to get his heat turned on for fucks sake.

I turned it on at 15/15. C9 had the bomb down with 2 alive. They both peek into the retake one by one. I can't believe they keep doing poo poo like that. I'm not even sure if they pop flashed first.

I actually don't think that's fishy at all. He knew Taz was low, so he'd probably be hiding instead of peeking. That spot is extremely common to spam. The rest is just jiggle peeking and preaiming common post plant spots.

I mean Fallen, apparently, runs classes where he focuses on various stuff like holding B site on cobble for a goddamn hour. I'd be surprised if anyone on C9 has practiced anything on cobble for more than that.

However, because of this rule, koosta will have to play with NME for the qualifier while Liquid will probably have to use adreN again. Same goes for the major from what I can tell. It's a very badly-worded Tweet. It's a good rule. It prevents super teams from straight up buying people from competitors just so they can't compete.

At least it's blatantly obvious you're throwing money away to 'support development' as opposed to you thinking that you're getting something with material value As much as I disliked Bloodhound's maps I realized after it ended I missed doing dumb missions. It's also kind of interesting to look back and see how many aces/wins/whatever you had at the time. And everyone gets a chance at that Medusa or Dragonlore!

@ Symbolic: you were the one who opens crates each new Op comes out, right? Let me know when you either 1. open a knife or 2. end up with all blues in a month Crain posted:Yeah, not gonna lie, playing the missions was fun. and like 90% of the reason I played anything but gun game and goonmans. Also the extra xp is nice for leveling up the account rank thing. Same here. Made back my Operation investment in my second DM. I like the mission format this time. Competitive Blitz + Casual missions should keep it interesting enough. I only work a couple days a week so I'll probably do the missions most days (unless it's Cruise). Also if you get a crate or you're dumb enough to open one: for god's sake sell the skin. If you want to buy it back it'll be a quarter of the price in a week.

What's the opinion of maps thus far? Royal is really, really growing on me. I like the long rotate time and combination of super close quarters/long sightlines. Cruise is bad. Santorini and Nuke are fun, though squeeky rush into B for T's still feels too easy.

It's fine for what it is but XP is beyond worthless. \/ The cross is beyond bad for A. Either you smoke and safely cross and completely concede the site to a rush or you try to cross and get picked ~50% of the time.

Rereading my post it sounds bitchy whiney and that wasn't my intention. I actually like the format a lot. It'll keep people playing the newer maps, which is good, because the maps are good. XP is just weirdly limited in CS because it literally doesn't matter.
