Counter-Strike: Global Offensive - Matchmaking that actually works?
Posts
A lot of it seems to be people against fog and bullet tracers. Personally I don't have any strong feelings about these subjects, but I guess I might just not be in the CS mindset.
this happens with absolutely every sequel though.
It just seems a bit silly to ask questions with drop down menu options, but the answers are entirely subjective.
This is a nice antidote to having my hard drive die and needing to reinstall everything.
I have realized the folly of my past life, I'm hopelessly addicted.
Why don't the terrorists just shoot them? Then the CT can't get them and win.
I think there is a massive penalty for the terrorists if they do that before a CT has actually tried to rescue them.
Hopefully it's more than just losing a few Bison Bucks now. There was really nothing stopping the Ts from doing that in the past, especially if they already had a cash/equipment lead.
It was definitely a strategy for the T's to shoot the hostages at the last minute if they didn't have a sight on the CT leading them away. Sacrifice yourself for the team, and all that. Hostages were much easier to kill as AI than a CT with a human controlling it.
I'm so conflicted on getting an invite. Part of me really wants one, while the other part of me has so much work to do and knows that if I get an invite, the work will go right out the window.
I hate being an adult.

Game is "aight." The clowns playing at the moment isnt worth it for the engine though. Might as well play source until more people are playing.
also decoy grenades are dumb
I can't see decoy grenades being all that useful however.

CS_Militia is one of my favorite maps. When I was on the Terrorist team, I would always do a global broadcast along the lines of "For every comrade I see die, I shall execute one hostage!"
Good times, man. I also almost failed Chemistry in 10th grade because I had this series of stick figure comics I would draw instead of paying attention in class. It was about a SEAL Team Six guy VS a Leet Krew guy on Militia. The T would cheat and buy a giant Japanese mech from the store, or the CT would buy the car keys and bust through the garage door in the SUV and splat the T.
... Now I wanna play Counter-Strike.
it was really good
dust is sooo bad
Militia was one of my favorites. And assault.
Man, now I've got a hankering for 1.6
That sounds like par for the course with the dualies though.
Step one is to sign up. After that, it's probably fairly random.
I for one realized how superawful I am at this game.
Or is everyone playing it right now some sort of T1000 headshotting machine?
Welcome to Counterstrike! That's basically how I felt when I first started playing, you just have to stick with it. It'll pay massive dividends in other games if you do.
The new way the guns handle is definitely taking some getting used to. I like it, but yeah, muscle memory is a bitch. At least they don't do weird crap like how the AK could get a point blank headshot if you were aiming at someone's feet due to the god awful huge spread. I'm not too thrilled with some of the new guns though. The sawed off is...ew...and I'm not sure why they added another MG to the mix, but whatever. It's not like we're forced to buy those guns.
The new maps almost feel like they belong in an arena shooter instead of CS, not that I'm complaining, I think they're really good. That said, I'd like to play both of those gun game maps in something like Quake 3.
EDIT: I laughed my fucking ass off when I saw that the M4's reload animation had changed since PAX Prime 2011. I guess my smartass remark to the devs about "M4's not working that way" got passed on.
Edit : Nevermind that newbnut of a question. So, this is going to be all about how the PC will show dominance over Console FPS players?
I know I'll be pub stomping as hard as I possibly can in order to collect buckets of console tears.
They announced a while back that it wouldn't have PC/PS3 cross play after all.
Oh, really? I couldn't find that on their blog site. That's too bad, although, it makes sense considering how unequal the player base would have been.
That wasn't the reason why they canned it, it's because they can't push patches as fast on PS3 as they can on Steam.
It looks like the Dev's are prepared to stick it out until they've created something amazing. That's hopeful!
