What's the best skin you guys have received from completing a mission?

Ever since missions began, I had gotten nothing but the lowest level gray skins worth like two cents. Today after completing a Bizon kills challenge (my sixth mission) I received a field tested M4A1 master piece worth around $45. All those crates opened, and my best item ever comes from a mission :suicide:

Thanks for this, it's really helpful. I make many of the same mistakes as MG1 and after watching this I've already been doing better. Now I just need to improve my lovely aim...

I've been liking this crosshair lately. It's basically Hiko's setup I guess. I was unsure why people weren't using the dynamic crosshair since I was so used to it from 1.5 and Source. Crosshair 5 is okay but I still don't think it feels like the old crosshairs.

code:
cl_crosshaircolor 1
cl_crosshairstyle 2
cl_crosshairgap -2
cl_crosshairsize 2
cl_crosshairthickness 0.5
cl_crosshair_drawoutline 1
cl_crosshair_dynamic_maxdist_splitratio 0
cl_crosshair_dynamic_splitalpha_innermod 1
cl_crosshair_dynamic_splitalpha_outermod 0.3
cl_crosshair_dynamic_splitdist 5

Thank you for this, I love it.

I hope overgrown sticks around after this operation ends, it has the most potential of all the breakout maps imo. It seems like a really T sided map to me, which is fun but something they'll probably balance later. It's really easy to make big comebacks on T side.

I got a silly tec-9 pistol round ace.

The guy on cat should have killed me, but he was terrible. The first 7 rounds he ended up getting 0 kills, 0 assists and 7 deaths, so we called him Agent 007 the rest of the game. He thought it was funny at least :3:

Because all but one of them (de_overgrown) were not viable for competitive play and should be caste into the pits of Hell.

I really liked overgrown. I hope it comes back later on as an official map. Just needs a bit more work to make it less T sided.

I thought about throwing together an AK where the grip and the stock are bound with black leather, but I don't know if it would look good enough at my skill level.

That might look too similar to the first class/black laminate AKs. You should try to make an AK where the wood is cherry wood, that's something I always wanted to see. I think it would look really nice.

The new skins are pretty cool, but the only ones I'm dying to have are the P250 Cartel, P2K Fire Elemental and maybe the sawed off. I really hope I can get a Master Piece or Dragon Lore, pretty unlikely though.

I've never played the new Season before, it looks amazing.

I don't even care if Fnatic ends up getting disqualified, what happened was still loving hilarious. LDLC had been trying for months to beat their greatest enemy, and right when it looked like they were about to do it, Fnatic busted out this insanely overpowered boost like a Bond villain unveiling his master plan. You can't make this poo poo up.

(plus I got a sweet jaguar AK and some other skins out of this)

I bought a HyperX Cloud headset a while back and have no ragrets. The sound is the best of any headset I've used and the mic's as good as any other. The cable can get twisted pretty easily though, so I would tape it down or something.

the mic might be good but anything with the name "HyperX" does not scream quality to me

Dunno what else to say. Used it for about half a year now and it's comfortable, sounds great, has a good mic and hasn't died on me. Other than the cable thing I'd change nothing about it.

About $50. It's a drop in the bucket compared to what a lot of others lost today, but I don't like spending a lot on gun skins, so it took me a while to build that up. Time to start climbing the mountain again...

For real though, there was NO logic, rhyme or reason today. C9 took a brutal loss to some random Brazilian team, then stomped NiP who had beaten Dig in a close game. LDLC lost to CLG who's never been together as a team on LAN before, then CLG was embarrassed by Liquid, who got embarrassed by Fnatic prior, then LDLC stomps Fnatic. I'm just going to bet everything left on csgolounge on any underdog that looks even halfway decent and see how far I go.
