Kinda OT, but what mice do you guys use? Is Razor Deathadder 2013 any good for this particular game (smallish hands, finger grip). My current one is awful and needs to be replaced.

Whatever mouse you're used to is the best one. I use the deathadder (?2012) and it's fine. Just go to a brick and mortar place and try a bunch of mice.

Pick a Razer mouse that has as little buttons as possible. I recommend a Razer Abyssus (3 buttons, ambidextrous) or a Deathadder.

I keep getting this error when I play the game. I get in a server and it crashes after a minute or so.

The game is telling you that you should try installing a game that fits your skill level, like Audiosurf, or maybe Trine 2.

I play with a CM Storm Xornet and have no complaints. I claw grip though so I'm in a weird niche.

If there's one thing I love more than GruntKilla420, it's the Queen! Also bacon.
I use a death adder 2013 because it's the best mouse and run at 450dpo with a 2.1 sens because that's the pro-est combination. No mouse pad because they just get in the way and are a crutch for noobs. Optical mice don't need them either please get with the times.

The pad helps the movement to be smoother since it offers traction.

I use a logitech g400s and it's probably my favorite mouse to date. I had a Razer mouse before this (I think the Imperator) and this feels more comfortable. It was also maybe half the price, so that's a plus. I don't know how it competes with other bigger Razer mice, but it seems to be pretty good.

I had this happen after downloading a bunch of community maps. Go to your csgo folder and delete all the .vpk files and then get steam to verify the install and download a fresh set.

Hey everyone. I've recently started playing CS:GO again after picking it up on release. I played a ton of CS years and years ago, and it's still just as fun as I remember. I've been practicing on deathmatch trying to figure out how to properly shoot things and work on my reflexes/spatial awareness and if anyone wants an extra on their team I'm around pretty frequently. My steam ID is verisimilidude. Feel free to add/message me and maybe we can play together. :)

Jump into the chat room linked in the OP for pick ups or anything related to playing cs with goons. There are players there pretty much 24/7 who will be willing to MM. However if you're already comfortable with CS you should just jump straight into goonmans.

It seems to be worth just a little more than the m4 ATM, so yes, probably a good trade.

I haven't seen these posted in awhile but it's good knowledge:



Know those shots you swear you hit? You were sure that AWP shot was on point? Must have been the server?! Nah just the shitboxes.

e: looks like those are from a few patches ago and the head hitboxes have been re-worked, does anyone have the newer ones?

Still better than Source and hitboxes that registered hits even when it wasn't on the model at all!

Is 1.6 the same as source? It would explain my only 1.6 game since I picked up GO. I was able to W around the map owning everyone just pointing the deagle in their general direction. Also it was a DM server full of players who ran around corners waving grenades at you, that probably helped.

I hope this isn't one of those "gently caress me, not this again" subjects, but I want to talk about static crosshairs. I've just started using one after 400 hours with a dynamic. Its better for almost everything, tapping, spraying, placement. But I'm struggling with the recoil reset when bursting 4 or 5 shots. How do you know when your recoil is reset after a burst? Are you watching the gun model in the corner of your eye and waiting till it goes back to neutral?


Edit: \/\/ bollox, I was afraid that was going to be the answer. Different for each gun, yeah? Super.

If this helps, I also put a dot in the middle of my crosshair with a console command. I find I'm way more accurate with it. I don't remember the command but hit up google.

The sgares bit isn't official (yet), but there are a lot of rumours (apparently Sean told Shahzam that he will retire) suggesting it might happen. If it's true, I wish Sean would at least stay until ESL Cologne is over.
