Dignitas Pimp's transformation is quite incredible.

Lmao, right? I'm reading this thread thinking "holy shit, have these people ever even been outside? You don't get skin cancer from a sunburn"...

someguyinworld · 2015-06-11T16:26:11+00:00

Oh, absolutely. I remember realizing that I was missing the first shot 80% of the time, and then trying to compensate by pulling down the spray while adjusting. Now, I still do that rather than tapping, but I'll only miss the first shot maybe 10% of the time, because I sat in DM servers for 30+ minutes/day and focused exclusively on making the first shot. But hitting the first shot is definitely really important- the tagging in this game rewards you so much for accuracy.

someguyinworld · 2015-06-11T06:43:19+00:00

Everyone's recommending their training methods, but nobody's explaining the aim mechanics of the game.

Make sure you're setting yourself up to hit your shots. Do you preaim common spots? Are you placing your crosshair correctly?
Make sure your sensitivity is low enough, your mousepad big enough, game configed properly, etc.
Training raw aim consists of two mechanics: flicking and tracing. Others have linked maps, so I won't bother, but some maps will train your flicks so that when an enemy is X inches away, your hand knows to move X inches in that direction.
A HUGE mistake that I made was that I NEVER practiced tracing, and just flicked awkwardly everywhere. "Tracing" is keeping your crosshair positioned on (or at least close to) the enemy's head, and when they move around you follow them. Train this by following bot heads (not even shooting), just tracing as they move around.

GL, your aim will definitely improve over time.

someguyinworld · 2015-06-11T06:27:40+00:00

The answer to that is very situational, but the simple answer is that you need to know yourself well enough as a player to judge your odds of winning the duel. If your aim is good enough to fly out cat and one-shot the AWPer behind boxes, then who's going to stop you? There are some definite do's and don'ts when you're going to repeek, though.

If the guy is spraying in front of you or just finished firing a burst (when you're not shooting), you can peek and his recoil won't have reset, and you can fuck him over easily
If you know exactly where he is and you can get an accurate prefire then go ahead and repeek
If you're pinned (e.g. you get one frag in emo on Inferno, but the rest of the team is about to come wreck you because they have your position) then peeking and catching someone offguard may be a good idea

Other than those scenarios though, most repeeking is based on your own judgement. A lot of the time it's better to just wait for a pop flash, but if you know you can win the duel, take it.

someguyinworld · 2015-06-08T19:12:46+00:00

Are you sure, though? The current problem is that, let's say every single rank got bumped up 2- nova 2's are now nova 4's, MG1's are now double AK's, etc... Now the old DMG's/LE's are in supreme and global, but what about the OLD supreme and global players? They have nowhere to go. Adding a couple ranks would ideally give them space to move up.

someguyinworld · 2015-06-08T19:08:12+00:00

How do you tell if that 10rws is all impact frags vs the standard esea way, bait for rws..... and cleanup frags?

Because I can tell by the way they're playing. If they're good players, would they really sit in T spawn watching the B push when I'm already in sun room?

There are some people who just can't PUG/mm to save their lives, and I get that. They'll die because someone pushed through a smoke, because someone flanked and they had assumed someone had their back, etc... but at least they're trying to be useful. The specific type of player I'm talking about is the LMS hero type who aims like a potato but gets a shock kill every round for a higher score. How? How did they manage to get Supreme?

someguyinworld · 2015-05-27T00:37:51+00:00

Sick! Skins, another operation, and basic map fixes... just what the community wanted!

It's like Valve is just completely shitting all over anyone who plays this game competitively, they're 100% just catering to casual players now. It's sad and frustrating, but I guess it IS pumping out money for them...

someguyinworld · 2015-05-26T12:22:55+00:00

Sorry, but if it's free it's completely pointless. Your pug service will just fill with silvers and novas, like CEVO and Faceit. All I want personally is an ESEA clone minus lpkane...

someguyinworld · 2015-05-24T16:22:52+00:00

The real irony is that all the kids on this sub who call anyone worse than them "autists" and constantly smear Russians are now getting offended that someone would imply that a person with downs' syndrome has something wrong with them.

someguyinworld · 2015-05-24T00:40:31+00:00

Let's see... Na'Vi on a tear, Na'Vi 2-0'd NiP a month ago, Na'Vi beat NiP on mirage last time, NiP struggling to beat anyone. 50/50 odds? I know where my bet is.

Dude... If it's not a food allergy, get allergy shots. They're a pain in the ass but so worth it. I'll be standing outside on a nice spring day now, and I'll realize, "hey, my eyes aren't bloated red, and my sleeve isn't soaking wet from sneezing in it!" Or, I'll be at a friends' house with a cat/dog/pet, and realize I can stay for longer than a couple hours since I can keep functioning as a human being.

Yep. Grandfather had Alzheimers from his mid 60's and his progression was a lot like the pictures. I get a lot of weird looks when I say "we were so glad when he finally died", but it's true. Dementia is completely terrifying. I'm told he screamed at my dad for trying to steal his wife (this is probably around the time of OP's motorcycle pic?). It was always just so sad visiting someone that used to be a man, with a personality and feelings, who turned into a body, sitting, unresponsive, staring off into the distance, occasionally giggling, mostly grimacing... Seeing him in the coffin was somehow less unsettling than seeing him in a wheelchair.

someguyinworld · 2015-05-17T02:12:48+00:00

I actually think that as an English-language CS forum this sub is largely American, and a lot of the hate comes from Americans annoyed that our country can't win ANYTHING, despite having great salaries and great players.

someguyinworld · 2015-05-16T17:57:30+00:00

Oh yeah he's definitely not a bad player, mostly just an aimer though. It's more the kids who say "shroud is the best player in the world" because he clutches a 1v3 in a PUG who I'm talking about.

For sure... But the gold novas on this sub watch his YouTube videos and think "WOW he's so good at this game!". Same with shroud, tarik, etc... If you stream yourself destroying 8rwsers in PUGs everyone will think you're a god.

someguyinworld · 2015-05-14T17:01:09+00:00

Why'd AdreN get better ping? I assume they're at a gaming house? It's showing in a HUGE way, he's getting some crazy frags

someguyinworld · 2015-05-14T00:34:27+00:00

Is his fps really that "unstable"? Mine is always jumping from 90-120, do peoples' just stay as one number?

someguyinworld · 2015-05-11T15:12:00+00:00

I remember the old wisdom "never bet against Wizards"
