Re: The CS GO thread.

Hm...Thread was created quite a long time back.

Anyway Ask gta0gagan to post his steam id.

Meantime, Unofficial Server for TDF Playdate is ready to rock & roll.

Rig :

Intel C2Q Q6600, DG33FB Board, 4GB DDR2 800Mhz CL5, 2x 1TB Black RAID 1, Storm Scout 2, GTX650TI.

So lets plan our playdates properly on every weekends & hit good games.

I'm trying to grab Airtel 20Mbps line for same. But during our Halo CE playdate [which never took place], Members faced lot of ping issues speciallyBSNL & MTNL users.

Thanks Man, took a while to get it build [its difficult to build a second hand rig within in budget limit & ofc finding right seller.]

Now, we need to have a separate section for Playdate Stuff rather than maintaining a single thread for multiple games. What say ??

The guns have been out for a while,so it's now personal preference. I kinda prefer the stock M4 and have no preferences between USP and p2000. And in 1.6 and CSS, there is only one M4, the M4A1. In GO we have a more powerful M4A4 vs a M4A1 with a smaller clip. I prefer the M4A4 since my aim isnt good enough for a 20 bullet magazine :-(.
A silenced M4 has lesser recoil, one of the reasons to use it with the silencer since 1.6 .

Re: The CS GO thread.

They have added two guns and being able to choose one from loadout for the same reason, personal choice. find out which guns fits your style of play.. if you are more accurate and want to go sneaky beaky like, the m4a1-s.. if you like to spray a lil, you need higher clip of m4a1.

if m4a1-s is given full clip, m4a1 would have been dead.

Go to steam library. Right click on CS:GO --> Click Properties --> Select "Local Files" Tab --> Click on "Verify Integrity of game cache"
Let it complete. [It will probably download a small file]

90 min is a problem yeah but snipers have their disadvantages too. Some handgun experts are hard to kill , they are like having one shot kill.
Demolition/DM/Arms race guys are not that much annoying cause you get re spawned quickly but in classic a big challenge.

Yeah one of the things I hate in CS GO. Bullet spray is too bad, I came from BF3 and getting torso kills is not that hard in those games but here, it means nothing. I can shot 2 shotgun bullets and he will give me a fckin HS with a handgun and I die and he did not. He took 2 shotgun bullets and lives, fckin great. :|

I still hate AK47. Recoil is too much but still good for 1 shot kills if you manage to get HS. A CS GO guy will get his @$$ whopped in a BF3 match as he won't understand why he is dying too much. TBH bullet spray is terrible in CS but its just old game and people have gotten used to it so Valve doesn't change that at all.
thetechfreak
Apr 14, 2015 at 12:41 PM
meh. CSGO has been completely reworked [MENTION=73844]gameranand[/MENTION]. It is not the "old" game you think it to be. Movement & everything is different. All guns recoil is different. Frankly, most people criticize CSGO as they're not able to control guns or play it well. You need to learn the spray. The movement and spray feels one of the most fluid in all FPSs. Games like BF3 are much easier to pick up IMHO(running and gunning etc, blow up tanks etc but that debate for another day).

It's not really a sniper paradise. There has been a huge nerf recently that slows them down when scoped(players like JW, kennyS, etc) have been somewhat affected by it. There is an appropriate gun for all ranges. It isn't logical to engage a sniper from long a to A-site of dust2. But in A-short of dust2 with a well placed flash AWPers will be insta killed.

If you want to get better in CSGO and get a good rank, check out TheWarOwl on YT. Great tutorials & strats on how to play the game.
gameranand
Apr 14, 2015 at 1:07 PM
Yes reworked, of course it is. Just not as per my liking, also bullet spray is terrible at best. You don't get to live with 2 shotgun bullets or 4-5 Machinegun bullets. You simply don't but here you do. I am not saying its a bad game or anything, but several factors are bad which got adopted by the community. And now they are integrated in game. Its that simple, like creep stacking was a bug in Dota but it got adopted. Similar thing happened with this game too on several points.
And I never watch a goddamn video to learn a game, I'll play and learn and I'll die 1000 times but won't watch videos. Don't really have time to watch video instead of playing the game. Much games less time such wow.
thetechfreak
Apr 14, 2015 at 1:20 PM
You have to learn about eco rounds & stuff. Don't watch a video but if you don't know proper smokes and flashes it's hard to rank up. Just pull your mouse down slightly when spraying with AK47(down then slightly right after 8-10 bullets). Don't spray at long ranges(only do so in short ranges).

Always go for HSs with Ak47 at long range(it is 1 tap kill) which really helps. You might want to adjust your crosshair too as the default one is just dreadful(check this map that lets you do so: Steam Workshop :: crashz' Crosshair Generator v2 )

CSGO expects you get rifles/etc in "Buy" rounds i.e when you money is stable(rifle + armor + defuse kit when CT and maybe a pistol like p250). Shotguns are better in eco rounds(they give 900$ kill bonus instead of 300$. Shottys can be used in buy rounds as well but as they're not effective at long range people donot buy) or one can really effectively use them in short ranges(like banana in Inferno).

The spray is to add realism. Because real world guns also recoil a lot. And a gun is never 100% accurate(esp rifles). Even the AWP in CSGO has a 98% accuracy(according to people who have analyzed ingame files).

I have played 500 hrs and have barely reached Silver 4(very scrubby rank). Internet trouble has played a big role too as I often DC between matches(and unlike dota2 we cannot pause here and even the loss of a single packet is difference of life & death).

Thing is those who like running & gunning won't ever like CSGO. You make elaborate strats, fake sites, YOLO rush & what not in the 30 rounds of compe. The rush we get when we clutch 1v3 or something similar is what that keeps everyone going(among other things).

And I never watch a goddamn video to learn a game, I'll play and learn and I'll die 1000 times but won't watch videos. Don't really have time to watch video instead of playing the game

Everyone has a different opinion on this. But learning smokes and flashes(and some other things) have definitely helped A LOT in this game. You can't just learn some of the smokes applied without actually watching them once (in a pro match or a YT video).

Actually CS:GO 's physics are great, the spray pattern which everyone has been talking 'bout is realistic, maybe realism is not appreciated by gamers who like BF/COD because all they like is easy af gameplay. Ak has a huge recoil and everyone knows that, you have to be damn accurate to kill a guy with that gun, opposite to blindly spraying in games like BF and COD.

Cs go is the best competitive game out there, bf or cod players won't be able to play the game if all they want is to spray and get the kill. CS:GO, unlike bf or cod, needs a certain amount of learning and hence it is played by a community of more matured people.

Cs go is the best competitive game out there, bf or cod players won't be able to play the game if all they want is to spray and get the kill. CS:GO, unlike bf or cod, needs a certain amount of learning and hence it is played by a community of more matured people.

Wrong. Blindly spraying don't work in BF as well, I am not defending BF or anything but simply saying that CS GO is for Mature players and BF for amateurs is dumb in each and every regard. What if I say "FPS is for amateurs and RPGs are for mature gamers." Feels right ?? NO because it isn't. Gaming is about choice and getting used to. I have seen CS GO pro players getting their @sses banged in BF games so don't talk about maturity here alright.

I actually have played BF a lot of times and all you have to do is spray and keep your position right, I am not dissing BF or anything but if compared to CS:GO - it isn't really that competitive, BF can be played without investing too much of hard work, Cs go, on the other hand, needs a little time and practice as well as 'watching videos to learn complicated smokes', which I am damn sure you wouldn't because " And I never watch a goddamn video to learn a game ", maturity level was indicated as well as announced when you made that sentence. I did not make the maturity statement out of thin air, I read the ignorant, cocky and arrogant replies.

You could have said that for yourself bullet spray was terrible because you couldn't control it, and you wouldn't want to 'watch videos to learn a damn game ', a community where learning new smokes, mastering recoil and learning new strats is everything. I've seen strats in CS;GO which will make anyone go bananas, it isnt only about running & gunning which amateur audience mostly likes and they don't wanna learn anything new.

I have clocked in RPG more hours than you can even imagine which require some serious learning and planning, so again don't talk about maturity of gaming to me. I am not a big fan of FPS genre, I play it for a break from other games or with friends in co-op if they want. Also don't you think that those videos are made by someone who DIDN'T learned that move by watching videos on Youtube. Try to be like that guy and stop spoon feeding yourself alright. And yes I still abide by my point that I never watch videos of games for learning purposes, if that was arrogant and cocky and childish for you then too bad. I prefer to learn by playing game and not watching videos, here I said that again.

Congratulations, you just complemented your stupid previous reply by this one, I have to give you points on consistency though mate.

Don't talk to me about RPG's, I've almost played every RPG and guess what I will take RPG over FPS at any given day, but RPG's have a tendency to get over, I use FPS to keep me busy during RPG's. Don't try or teach me about how many hours/RPG's you've played.

You're not a big fan of FPS genre and yet you claim that CS:GO's spray and physics are terrible, wow, you're like Einstein without even studying physics.

What BS are you typing?, go and take a look at the smokes which are on YouTube, there is a reason why those smokes have tutorial, stop being a pony. You might as well as hunt, clean or farm the food you eat if you don't want to spoon feed yourself, " Try to be like that guy and stop spoon feeding yourself alright" this is by far the dumbest statement I've ever heard.

I am sorry you are not cocky, arrogant or childish, you are plain dumb mate. And yeah don't use facebook or TD because you did not invent them, stop spoon feeding yourself mate ( It's sarcastic, if just in case you were wondering ).

Really every RPG on planet sounds kinda dumb to me, of course unless you are like 100 years old because playing all of them will take a lot of time AFAIK.

Just because I don't like FPS doesn't mean that I don't know about them so please stop it. Its like saying, you are a lawyer then why do you use computer.
Also I never said physics were terrible, hell I didn't mentioned it, all I complained was bullet spray and yes it terrible for me. Wanna prove otherwise be my guest.

Yeah that sound dumb to you because you are. So you can't really help it now can you.

Yeah thanks for the compliment, it means a lot coming from you as you are the expert it seems. Hmm what do I say to this...I do use Youtube in case you are wondering, just not to learn mechanics of games as I prefer to learn them myself not by watching videos...savvy.

No offense mate but since when is bullet drop about graphics?
Bullet drop is when bullets change trajectory in game to compensate for distance, wind and gravitational pull. So basically it is a realism mechanic like that so called "CSGO Special Bullet Spray". In CSGO guns have spray but there is no bullet drop, you just hit where your crosshair is.

Yeah BF3 does have it. Anyways I'm out of here. Just people randomly comparing with MOBAs & bashing (shows the maturity level of users).
[MENTION=22661]ManiDhillon[/MENTION] Well, the core mechanics of BF3 is different. It has tanks & what not. Anyways give this a read: Why CS:GO is the best multiplayer shooter out there - The Tech Report

Pro scene is non existent for BF3(more or less). People just love the fluidity of movement & the amazing map designs of CSGO. Hence the almost half a million players on a daily basis.
Anyways, a single FPS can't "have it all". Valve has to balance the meta & stuff too. Constantly changes are being made to the guns & maps in order to balance.



We cannot compare CSGO & BF3 one on one. Why? BF3 core's is different. Their outlook is on a large scale of combai(hence the tanks & stuff). CSGO focuses on the core of shooting(it's scale being lesser as its guns v guns only). It's 5v5 & the team with the best strats to defent/take a site wins. One is constantly trying to outsmart their opponents.

[MENTION=57860]thetechfreak[/MENTION] Actually I was trying to convey the same thing. I do not defent BF3, I play it regularly sometimes and sometimes for months I don't even touch it.
I haven't played Bf4 for almost 4 months now. I mostly play Insurgency now (based on Source engine).
The thing is that everyone love some specific game and despite every other CS player trying to say that CSGO playbase is mature, they start hurling offence at others if someone say that they don't like CSGO or they don't find some specific mechanic of game right. This shows the how mature the players are. I never said CSGO is bad/good game, it's pretty difficult for me to play but I have many CSGO playing friends who on constant basis condemn other shooter games. Maturity right.

P.S: Good article, no offence but given time I can write a better one for BF3, BF4, Insurgency, TF2, RE Series.
Again the thing is everyone has their pick and like you said "no game has it all".

If only you had any clue of what you were talking here. Have you even played CSGO? How many hours?

Not a CS player, have always disliked the game starting from the original CS 1.6 but I understand what [MENTION=57860]thetechfreak[/MENTION] is talking about.. CS and all it's sequels removed all the variables that are required for realism.. The result : you get a game that is 100% dependent upon skill to win.. CS is basically a FPS version of the competitiveness that goes on in MOBAs.. I m not saying playing Battlefield or CoD doesnt take skill though...
In BF/CoD, if an enemy is standing 10 meters away from you, you hipfire .. The bullet MAY or maynot hit him.. Bullets arent a perfect straight up shot when hipfiring in BF or COD, bullets are projectile based (atleast in BF, hence the drop due to gravity).. All this brings in realism but takes away part of the skill requirement.. You may have seen no-scopes on youtube montages, these things exist because of how randomly bullet travels when hipfiring..
CS on the otherhand is much simpler, with very few variables.. There is no impact of gravity, bullet spread is a pattern which you can memorize for different weapons (and move your mouse in the opposite direction to get perfectly straight multifires) ... That is why it takes a lot of skill to master
So summary : you aim to the head, you shoot, bullet travels straight, you win , say gg ez nubs

PS: I never played CS seriously, nor do I intend to.. I have 150+ hours in BF3 mp.. (thats low I know :( but I dislike FPS )
PPS : I respect CS GO players but those who play CS 1.6 in TWO THOUSAND FREAKING FIFTEEN deserve to be gelded (AKA MY HOSTEL MATES :twisted:)

Well CSGO no bullet is 100% accurate & 5v5 matchmaking really pushes a players capability to its limits. Yes spray we can memorize but even no-scopes are not accurate(anyone who plays it knows its useless other than point blank).

Most of you guys should try it once, pretty sure you'd like it if you like hardcore FPS.

Log into Faceit ---> look at the CS GO 'Play' thingy which is right infront of your eyes ----> there is a gear type thingy on the top right image of CS GO which says 'Play', click on that ----> scroll to cs go and you will get the option to change the region on the right hand side.

I wonder if there is any fix to resume the download instead of starting over. Yesterday, I took a copy of "C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\downloading" folder before turning off the computer. Can I use that to resume the download? BTW, I have already tried replacing the .patch files. It didn't work either.

If that "downloading" folder copy can't be used, Can anyone help me in finding a Steam backup torrent of this game?

I redeemed the CS:GO key that [MENTION=2132]RCuber[/MENTION] gave me. I have tried to download the game twice but each time when I restart the computer, the download progress is lost and it again starts from 0%. I can't download it one go also, thanks to my unstable 512kbps BSNL BB.

I wonder if there is any fix to resume the download instead of starting over. Yesterday, I took a copy of "C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\downloading" folder before turning off the computer. Can I use that to resume the download? BTW, I have already tried replacing the .patch files. It didn't work either.

Update is way bigger compared to disc. No point installing from disk :/

And steam should resume the download from where it left off. That's how it happens fr me. Weird in your case.

I never had the problem with pause/resume while downloading other games.

Anyway, I will consider getting the DVD as the last option.

Will check for any other solutions to resume the download.

CSGO been getting small updates daily these days because of operation. That is why your download resets frequently. Whenever an update is pushed existing download is revoked and started fresh. You can try to get it from friends or from cuber unkil.

Imho, valve should find a fix for this.

I have Automatic Updates disabled. So, updates are not the problem in my case, I guess.

If you download in one go then its not a problem but once you shut down the PC or exit steam then when it starts it searches the server for the game again and download from beginning as the data is modified there. I had similar problem, I just kept my PC on till it completed. :)
Steam is kinda weird, what worked for me may or may not work for you but you can always try.

How do you guys like the new rifles update? I just haven't been able to play like earlier and it has negatively affected how I play(as my play-style involves spray rather than tap/bursts)

Second Shot

Today we’re shipping a new accuracy recovery method and new recovery rates for the AK-47, M4A1-S, and M4A4.
Accuracy Recovery Rate

Accuracy recovery rate determines how quickly the accuracy of a weapon returns to its baseline value after firing. It was previously expressed as a fixed value, but is now split into initial and final values.

Now shorter firing sequences can be designed to recover accuracy faster than longer ones, and the recovery rate for tapping/bursting/spraying can be tuned independently.
Goals

The goal is to allow players to develop and express their skill using a variety of methods of firing a weapon, by increasing the effectiveness of tapping/bursting relative to that of spraying.

Previously we shipped an update to the AK-47, M4A1-S, and M4A4 accuracy recovery rates with that goal in mind, but due to limitations of the system, the solution we employed had a downside which was a smaller but still noticeable detrimental effect on tapping and bursting. We reverted that change and went back to the drawing board, still with the same goal but without those trade-offs. Ultimately that led us to this new way of handling recovery rate.
AK-47, M4A1-S, M4A4

To start, we’re shipping new values for the AK-47, M4A1-S, and M4A4.

These three weapons are now slightly more accurate while tapping/bursting than before. Individual bullets can be fired more quickly without sacrificing accuracy, and accuracy recovers more rapidly after short firing sequences. Spraying is still advantageous in many engagements, but has the trade-offs of slightly worse accuracy towards the end of the spray and slightly slower recovery afterward.

Here are examples of how inaccuracy accumulates with the AK-47 before and after today’s change:

Next Steps

Today’s values are just a start, as we’ll continue to measure and tune them over time. One of the best ways to give us feedback about these new values is to play the game so we can gather accurate usage statistics, so hop into a game and try them out!
