Did they remove rank requirements for Competitive? I just ran into a rank 1 smurf who absolutely wrecked house. I thought you need like rank 3 or 5 to do that?

I should have a 10+ year veteran coin dammit I have a 5 year veteran coin even though I never really played CS before GO (just some casual CS:S matches because it came free with HL2). It doesn't really mean anything.

I know CS players are super serious about their 240hz screens and all but it's funny seeing people complain about only getting 100 FPS in a videogame.

Wish Valve would raise the minimum rank for competitive to like 10 or so. As it is the limit is kind of a joke.

Agoat posted:My first CS game is GO so I'm not qualified to say much but I really hate that when I'm doing poorly I can always grab an MP9/Mac10 and just jump shot people around corners. It becomes less of a problem as people get better and they can reliably headshot you with their AK if you try stuff like that. But yeah it sucks that a bad player can just play Call of Duty with a P90 and do ok against average players.

Is the glock really terrible or should I just get good? It has really bad damage, accuracy and range compared to the CT pistols and of course its burst fire is 100% useless. As far as I can tell the only thing it's got going for it is higher ammo count.

Famethrowa posted:(and also like a real gun) I haven't heard the new AWP yet but I couldn't care less if it sounds realistic or not. I want these guns to sound satisfying to shoot, who cares if that means we get Michael Bay sound effects instead of this realistic USP-S that sounds like a stapler. That said most of the sound changes have been pretty good.

EvilBeard posted:Actually, the scout is super satisfying now. When you get kills, it just feels better. The sound owns. I'm all for the new awp sound, it makes sense with my lightning strike. Oh yeah, I actually got to listen to them and they're great. I'm having trouble telling the scout and awp apart, but I'm sure that'll come with time.

canoshiz posted:It's probably in their best interest to fix it though, as a lot of these maps are balanced around the fact that some ledges are designed to be 1-way for a solo player like under window in Mirage and vents in Cache. A lot of these maps are balanced around left eye vision, not right, and that doesn't seem to stop them. But yeah I'm sure they'll fix it.

I think we can all agree that the UMP is bad. As well as all the other SMGs. And shotguns. And the Scar and Negev and whatever that other machine gun is called. In fact let's remove every gun except pistols, AK, M4, SSG and AWP and be done with it.

I'm getting increasingly sick of Mirage cause at my rank (MG1) nobody knows how to smoke anything. A with 1 smoke is a gamble, mid with 1 smoke is suicide and B is just a mad dash through molotovs and SCARs

I just had 4vs5 end in a draw even though we stomped them CT side, because the T side bot never listened our commands and just rushed down mid to get shot every single round, making it a 4vs5

I wouldn't mind if they didn't work in competitive but of course they will. Just make them only visible to your teammates, Valve. Even Overwatch got that right. Elman fucked around with this message at 08:56 on Oct 7, 2016 |

Speaking of which, I'm MG1 and getting to the point where I feel my movement is hindering more than my aim is. Are there any tutorials or streamers I should be watching to help me with that? Most of the ones I find seem to focus on the very basics. The thing is I feel like I'm bad at stuff like jigglewalking, shoulder peeking or just generally checking every spot quickly without being exposed when I enter a site. I can aim, stutterstep and all that, but I need help moving in a sensible way.

Audax posted:Just call out positions, don't babysit people. No reason to stress out over this at that level. The only things that really annoys me at this level is people who entry frag with the bomb, probably cause they want those sweet planting points. It's to be expected though, if you play smart and drop the bomb before entry fragging you get rewarded with a lower score.

Was Inferno that unbalanced in competitive play, anyway? I always got the impression that it was a fairly even map (yeah, it's hard to get into B, but the same is true for Mirage's B).

Fusion Restaurant posted:I think my difficulty was that I was just pressing the opposite direction and trying to get the exact instant the crosshair lost its bloom -- which might be what good players do, but I'm not that. Are you using the default crosshair? It can help you learn counterstrafing, but otherwise it's really bad.

I don't get this game. How does a MG3 fail to use their smoke and flash on a retake of B? How does a DMG fail to buy any grenades whatsoever in a full buy round? And how bad am I if I'm only MG1 despite actually using grenades?
