It isn't dumb to say "let's ignore something an astoundingly low percentage of players have an issue with and focus on bigger things that nearly everyone has issues with" but I really hope your change.org petition for jump scouting changes CS:GO mechanics for the better.

It's still a dumb mechanic and would likely take a trivial amount of time to fix as opposed to larger issues that have taken years to properly fix (example being hitboxes), so yeah, it's pretty loving dumb to outright ignore something that should be simple to fix. I've never said it ruins the game but it certainly doesn't add anything positive to a game that shouldn't be known for reliable jump shots, imo

Yeah reading this thread reminds me of people in souls games complaining about "honor-less duels" or button mashing in fighting games. Just because it bothers your :spergin: ways doesn't mean it needs to be fixed.

Not sure how disagreeing with jump shots being a good thing is on :spergin: levels but OK :thumbsup:

Absolutely this, it has been growing on me steadily. I love that there are far more options on T side now, unlike the original version where CT's could pretty much hang back and stomp if T's were even slightly uncoordinated.

New Valve Anti-Cheat technology caught a few people cheating in Counter-Strike: Source and other games this week -- over 10,000.

Bought an Asus VG248QE a couple weeks ago, works very well for me. I had to tweak colors a bit (word of warning: almost all high rate monitors wash colors out by default) but for me it was well worth it. It's very nice seeing things move so smoothly.

same as xens monitor and its great. 120/144hz is the best purchase you can make to get better at games because it is way better than a gaming mouse is over a regular mouse

Same as Xen, bought mine a few months ago and it makes it drat hard to go back to 60, even to do basic things on my monitor at work.

Just wish these few weeks weren't so busy so I could actually play. :qq:

I don't follow League at all, but from what I've looked up, apparently their LoL team is very good and the owner is a cool guy, so I think Tempo Storm secured themselves a very good org.

maybe if they win enough games the two guys on the right can use the money to buy themselves necks :unsmith:

First of all: Telling people who are being assholes that they are being assholes and should not be assholes is not "Some ghandi poo poo".

Secondly: gently caress you. gently caress you and your bullshit, lazy, selfish, justifying-inaction rear end. "It's hard and I don't see immediate results" is a bullshit excuse. Are you going to fix the entire counter-strike community? No. But "love the idealistic angle, but then don't do poo poo" is a cop-out of the highest order no matter what circumstances it's used in. Obviously the counter-strike (or any) community is never going to change if everybody shrugs and goes "oh well it's never going to change".
I have maybe a 40-60% success rate on getting people in my game to stop being shits in my game if I bring it up in the right way, and continue bringing it up for multiple rounds.
Am I fixing CS:GO for everybody? No.
Am I making it more likely these people will not be shits in future games? Some of them, likely yes, some of them, probably it has a small amount of influence, and might make them stop easier next time, by indicating that people will call them on it and not put up with their poo poo, and some of them, probably no.
Does it help me, personally, have a better game because they have stopped being shits in my game? Yes.

ur 2centz are dumb

i wish you luck wallowing in your poo poo-filled pool that you are too lazy to tell the next person squatting down is not a toilet.

should I go out to my car to do a quick reading of this and upload it, because I'm tempted to

Unfortunately not playing for over three years has deeply diminished my powers to the point of being unreasonably bad

Some initial thoughts

-It's good!

-SMGs feel insanely good right now, to a hilarious and annoying extent

-Dualies feel BUSTEd as poo poo and it's also very funny

-Wins aren't being tracked properly? A bunch of us MM'd and it only counted one of our three wins, which sucks given the 10-win requirement for ranking, so I'm hoping that irons itself out

-Overpass still sucks rotten rear end in a top hat

-Galil has improved and feels like an actual, good rifle to use. FAMAS is unfortunately FAILMAS

-This game is very pretty

-New bells in inferno are cool

Can't wait to goonman later this week.
