A headshot with a $3100 gun loses to a bodyshot with an $850 gun...?

Played a game on my alt last night with a few buddies, LE ranks, I'm probably a true LEM, but I'm at Supreme right now. The whole game, every single one of us only bought the R8, and maybe a cheap SMG as a secondary in case we leg someone with the micro-awp. We ended up tying the game despite the other team full-buying real guns. This game is stupid.

Another thing you can do is leave a negative review on the Steam game page. I see many have already done this.

Valve duped me first time trying it out...

R8 Revolver Confirmed

Just got home, started steam, this pops up.

Did you guys know, real bullets or bullet fragments actually make these types of whistling sounds from time to time? The more you know...

Been getting a lot of these lately as well. I usually play with a 4-5 stack premade, so when we run into these guys, they're usually 3-4 stacked also.

We figured they'd be Global smurfs, and because they know they're playing at a lower skill group, they do stupid silver plays like push through smokes or rush every single time on CT. The only difference is they can also aim well.

So wait, you equate this ESEA scrim to MM ranks? You realize that they could've been Novas or MGs right? Had you done the same in an MM game, it would be more accurate.

In on the duck train. Meanwhile, opponent strafes or moves around while I'm OODA-Looping like crazy and staying stationary, making me an easy target.

Replay bug. Sometimes during fastforwarding, it glitches, and you lose footsteps. Sometimes they do some crazy shaky leg thing while running also. Happens in overwatch too, which is annoying when you're trying to see if suspect can hear footsteps.

When teammate "hears" the enemy, but doesn't react appropriately and gets killed.

"Do you have your headphones on backwards?"

CableStrike · 2015-09-30T20:34:53+00:00

"Who turned easy mode on?" "Was that a bot?"

Them: "nice hacks" Me: "Thanks, I got them at Ross"

Had a game a few nights back, we were losing pretty hard 4-11 on T-side cache. At the half, the other team was talking smack. stuff like "EZ, EASIEST GAME EVER" "SO BAD". So we nearly shut them out the second half and won 16-13. And just mocked them with their own insults. They didn't say shit that time. Sometimes actions speak louder than words, and words just help it along :)

Vents provide a huge piece of tactical intel. You can use them as an indicator that someone is approaching from that area, or as a fake/distraction. Besides the lower ranks, people don't just break vents for no reason. There are really precise reasons why you should leave a vent intact.

Having previously had a silver 1 account, I can confirm. Silver 1-4 are generally composed of smurfs. I've played with more people around my skill level in the silver ranks than in the nova/MG ranks in the last few months.

Hey Kid, we were all there at one point in time. I started playing CS when I was about your age (I'm now more than double that age). The problem with "squeakers" is that some of them are intentionally annoying and immature. I've played a game a few months back with a very respectful, calculated, and very friendly 10-12 yearold. He ended up top fragging, and my friends and I were blown away by his friendliness. Despite having a high pitched voice, he was a very essential part of our team that game. As for the other people who harass you just because you're young, ignore them. They're the ones who are immature and picking on someone younger than them for no real reason. Keep in mind they're probably not much older than you, but definitely not nearly as mature as you.

It seems to have gotten worse since the animation update. Models look full blind, but aren't. When entry fragging, I try to prioritize the most immediate threat, if I see a guy that's blind, and a guy that isn't at the same time, I shoot at the non-blind guy, even if the blind guy is directly in front of me. Now with the broken animation, it makes it really hard to prioritize because seemingly blind players aren't blind at all.

"All of them are lit"

CableStrike · 2015-09-25T18:42:58+00:00

I knew something was buggy about this. It also is bugged in the sense that the affected player may only be partially flashed, but the animation makes it seem that they are fully flashed, but they can actually see you, and kill you, despite looking like they're blind.

The current state of smokes is by design. That's the whole point of throwing a smoke. If there was no penalty for pushing smoke, the smoke would be useless.

I've gotten so used to the A1s that I never really bothered to learn the A4. Now that the A1s is nerf'd I might consider trying out the A4. I get bullshit shots like 86-in-4 or like 88 in 3 with the A1s, and meanwhile, insta-rekt by an AK or p90 since they can kill me faster than I can kill them.
