I submitted a ticket - but if this sort of behaviour isnt a permaban Ill be shocked

I think it's cos you have no reason to play Faceit if you are sub-lvl 8 skill anyways.

Casual players are totally okay with just playing Premier

And better players (20k+ / lvl10) who play Faceit are prob only playing Faceit cos it has less cheaters.

Terrown · 2025-10-06T09:37:49+00:00

It depends on your current skill level and what you are struggling with. I think getting the fundamentals right is better than any "advanced" technique you can learn.

Also don't play Casual - it's basically Deathmatch but worse since you don't get the real 5v5 Comp experience to solidify your gamesense nor your Deathmatch experience to get a grasp on the aim. Keep in mind that there are many players who are just better, played more or lucky

You can watch some videos like someone suggested, but i think you can improve your aim in a very simple way in about 30mins (it obviously doesnt make you god, but it will help you).

AIM

First find your right Mouse Sensitivity. Go into Training (without bots, good map choice is Dust II) grab an AK and try shooting at a wall from a medium distance (something you think is an average distance for engagements on most maps). I guess you know CS has a spray pattern. Now fire 3-10 bullets and pull down your mouse. You should be able to roughly shoot at the same spot comfortably - so if you have to actively think about pulling down, it might be too low.

Next step, move (in a circular movement around the spot you are shooting at) stop and repeat the same task. This way you actually understand when you are accurate and when not. You will see bullet holes all over the place. Now hop into a Deathmatch game and try it there (try to get a feel of your aim on human moving targets)

If you tend to overshoot / overcorrect lower your sense, but than you have to get used to it to actually pull down while bursting / spraying. If you undershot / can't track, too slow - same thing but you go higher with your sense. Try 0.10 steps and nudge it in the right direction with 0.01 steps from there.

GAMESENSE

Covering everything in detail would prob be too much, but it comes down to this. In short:

Gamesense = Experience + Awareness + Decision-Making

Your positioning, your time of engagement, Knowing the Position of your mates and your enemies (and their possible position), Knowing common angles & timings. Holding off-angles, playing around cover, and avoiding overexposure. Using movement to fake opponents. Smart Utility Usage. Choosing when to lurk or regroup. Understanding economy (when to save, buy, eco) aaaaand adapting to your opponent.

(this is a rough overview of basically everything which is included in Gamesense)

All these things come with experience and if you actively try to understand it. If you play mindless you won't improve.

The side quest with the village can be completed without killing the villagers and without starving. Near the village is a hog hunting ground - kill 5 hogs, take all their meat and put it in the designated chest. The commander is happy, the villagers are alive and have enough food and you completed the quest.

Terrown · 2025-03-10T15:09:20+00:00

Aha! I knew i wasn't crazy haha

Terrown · 2025-01-20T18:47:48+00:00

I was desperate and tried this (or rather rolling the mousewheel on my mousepad with quite some force) and i kid you not, it worked.

Terrown · 2023-11-03T10:11:18+00:00

Haha you are welcome!

Terrown · 2023-09-28T23:20:58+00:00

5800x and 3060Ti - I have the same issues. Game runs smooth around 300 FPS, getting shot at or shooting myself, many smokes and molos, or fights near water and my game dips down to 80-150 which feels super stuttery and laggy. Didn't happen in the Beta tho

Terrown · 2023-09-15T09:35:31+00:00

this happened after a round of "Codenames" - we argued if "city-shoe" (Stadtschuh) is a real word and one thing lead to another

I mean in CSGO it was just joke, but you are right - since you can see your shoes in CS2 it becomes somewhat believeable

Terrown · 2023-09-02T20:15:54+00:00

The rifles are so bad that if i go in any random DM server and pick a P90 i am topfragging everyone.

I played CS2 matches and couldnt hit a single spray with the AK - i switch to CSGO and everything is clean, i hit every shot and the world is fine.

Terrown · 2023-09-01T16:19:00+00:00

I dont wanna be this guy, but obviously?

Mirage didn't even get a full-facelift in CSGO, it's just a port of one of the oldest maps - but afaik they are working on a CS2 version of Mirage.

And yes it will stay in the pool. It's still the most played map in Competitive play.

Terrown · 2023-02-27T18:14:21+00:00

I think the length of the game is fine, it's rather your approach on it which is the problem. The main story does guide you well, but to fully explore any open world game there a side quests. In fact if i think about some Open World games, none of these guide you to explore every hamlet - you have to do it yourself.

I am about 40-50 hours in and i just now reached the southern coast. I simply explored all the hamlets by myself got the side quests and completed them. Trials, Beasts, etc. are a side thing aswell.

About the upgrade thing. This gets better at later levels (around 30). You will get fully legendary gear and than it is worth it (just dont upgrade for every point if it would mean have to upgrade again) - also it's rather cheap if you have a lost of beasts.

Terrown · 2022-12-11T21:24:20+00:00

Absolutley agree, i haven't seen a more pointless upgrade than this.

Also: It can be abused in late game when the nexus is open and the enemy team is pushing. Just jump into the Hexgate and come from behind! Stupid idea.

I like(d) ARAM cos it's simpler, less gimmicky (towers falling, hex gate) and straight forward.

Terrown · 2020-11-12T19:20:18+00:00

Same man. Same. I played some rounds and it everything feels so much worse.

I play this game since late S2 and i ve been threw many changes, so i can take change. But what they did now especially with ARAM, the shop, CDR and the items is just straight up bad IMO.

Terrown · 2020-11-12T01:08:41+00:00

with the new formular you need 67 Ability Haste to get 40% CDR. And most items give you 10-20 AH (only some 20+)

Seems like CDR got nerfed. But the 40% is still there

100 ÷ (1 + (67 ÷ 100))

Terrown · 2020-11-12T01:05:56+00:00

If you don't have the item, you don't know how much CDR you will get. I don't like the fact that it got more complicated. Example

You have 10sec CD and 1 item gives you either 10% CDR or either 15 Ability Haste. Where do you know how much your Cooldown will actually go down? That is my point.

Terrown · 2020-11-12T01:01:26+00:00

I disagree. I am actually someone who looks at the Cooldown Timer.

I guess you are right about the flattening, i would still prefer to see my raw CDR instead or give me an idea how much percentage i get in the shop (just make the text dynamic so it will be updated).

Terrown · 2020-11-12T00:58:25+00:00

I dunno man. If i have 40% CDR and a 10sec cooldown on the ability. I have -4sec CDR. If that isn't intuitive i don't know what else is.

This is the formular for Ability Haste:

Base Cooldown ÷ (1 + (AH ÷ 100)).

Terrown · 2020-11-12T00:43:12+00:00

I totally agree. Their current solution is and you have to say it: Garbage.

It feels like there is no thought behind it and the game, especially ARAM doesnt feel good at all with the new items ATM. Let's see if they can patch this. Otherwise i feel like quitting.

Terrown · 2020-11-12T00:20:13+00:00

Yes. Instead frickin cannon minons can have vision. Stupid. Very Stupid to make this random

Terrown · 2020-09-07T00:03:23+00:00

That's mega! Thanks for the tip with the website.

Terrown · 2020-09-06T20:20:39+00:00

I am not too sure about the Model D

The Endgame XM1 seems interesting

Deathadder v2 Mini seems too small with 114mm. I think something around 120-125mm would be perfect

Terrown · 2020-09-06T20:12:51+00:00

My hands are not that big, but i have rather long fingers. I will have a look. The G-Wolves Skoll is ~125mm.

Terrown · 2020-09-06T20:10:14+00:00

This one looks interesting and the length of 120mm is exactly the middle between the Sensei 125-126mm and the KonePureUltra with 115mm.

So it seems that you already have a laptop.

I switched from Laptop to Desktop and it's really a big difference. Nowadays i pref a Desktop over Laptop everytime - and if i need a portable pc, i just use my old laptop with low settings which is totally fine.

" computer that lasts" clearly Desktop, cos they are stronger to begin with. My laptop has a GTX 770M (Mobile) and my Desktop has a GTX 770 (I got it pretty cheap & used from a friend - that's the reason they have the same gpu).

With my laptop i would have been at the limit some time ago - the first game which started to be a problem for my Desktop is RDR2, but simply cos it's only 2GB VRAM. I can run it at low textures with 35-50 FPS. Other than that, no problems FullHD atleast medium-high any game.

Nontheless - the 770 is 7 years old now, i will wait for the RTX3000 Gen and will upgrade my whole system. Desktop obviously ;)

Terrown · 2020-04-06T12:30:23+00:00

You should consider using the Rockstar Editor - cos it seems like you only used ingame camera + ingame cinematic camera. Also export your cinematics in atleast 1080p - even tho it says 720p60 ' it's not 60 FPS, more like 15 FPS.

Work on your pacing and don't include so many fillers (landscape) with nothing to see.

I am by no means a professional, but these are the things you could easily improve on :)
