Saw this poo poo a few weeks ago, guy was blatently hacking before the ingame ban but really wanted everyone to believe he wasn't and was even calling our team hackers.

People who call hacks on you are about 500% more likely to be hacking themselves than your average player, in my experience.

Yeah I've noticed this more recently. I guess it's because they think the only people that can win against them must be hacking too.

Quilty and I did it guys. We saw someone get VAC'd right before out eyes. His famous last words, "Don't worry. I'll never get banned."



I'm still in awe of that moment. I think when he tried to show off his bhop script that literally looked like he was just mashing spacebar was the best part.

This is a stupid question but you must use the new stickers to compete in the Pick'em, right? I never bothered with it up until now.

The odds on CSGL are ludicrous for this matchup. Why did people feel supremely confident in NaVi over F3?

Because Na'Vi is the third best team in the world and Flipsid3 is somewhere around the 12th best mark.

Honestly even then that doesn't justify 10-1 odds, maybe 5-1 but no lower than that.

If a cheater gets banned and or kicked during your game, the game isn't counted :D. Was actually probably one of the most fun games of cs I'd played in a while.

How to Draw

I've only ever played 2 games where someone was blatantly hacking, once on my side and once on the other. Both just walls and pretty obvious stuff with wallbangs and kills through smoke and prefiring weird corners you are and nowhere else.

The most amazing part of people hacking in CS is that a lot of people are just so bad that you don't even notice. Last year when I played MM more regularly, I tracked around 40 people on that website who I thought were suspicious and eventually like 30+ got VAC or OW ban. But there were many many more who ended up getting banned who I didn't even notice because they got like 10 kills total. I played one game of MM the other day and some Romanian dude with like 1000 hours just toggled on WH on my team but he was pure garbage and the other team didn't even realise.

e: speak of the devil I looked him up and he got an OW ban. The system works!11!

Should I just be cranking my deathadder up to max DPI or will that cause issues? I just got mine yesterday and at 3500 DPI I had to lower my in game sens to like .3 to feel comparable to my original lovely mouse at 2.0.

There's no need. Doesn't confer an advantage. Most pros still play on 400 or 800 dpi, so just use whatever works for you.

I recommend using something that you won't want to change outside of csgo. So if you like using 3500/.3 and you use 3500 outside of CS, then go for it, but if you lower it after the game is over, why bother using it, just crank it down and put your sens up.

Technically there is a noticible difference between high and DPI, below video explains it fairly well. It probably isn't going to make much if any difference to actual gameplay though.

LOL. This video starts off with an annotation that tells you to "Click here for the video without all the useless info and annotations." Link leads to a video that's 2 minutes longer.

Gotta hand it to them, they know how to get people like me to watch their video for exactly 5 seconds before closing the window!

Brilliant. Don't the players get a cut of the money from stickers? He's probably going to earn a lot. I want one and I only have cute girl stickers on my guns.
