Well I had a weird experience. I've been playing CSGO and other CS versions on and off for years (I am terrible). I was in a casual server and someone started using their factory new Dragon Lore AWP. A few noticed and started passing it around at the start of the game taking screenshots with it. Myself included. I got a few kills with it and was killed by it too.

A new operation called Broken Fang is out. The new map is called Ancient which looks like Aztec but plays nothing like it. A new mode called retake, where the CTs have to disarm an armed bomb. It's very good. The twist is that before each round you are given a selection of cards which will be your loadout. So do you take the AWP or the M4 with smoke etc... Very fast paced.

V for Vegans posted:One teammate was complaining that the map was way too CT sided which I wasn’t sure about but we did go like 9-1 on CT to get the win so I don’t know if it was the false confidence or the actual map balance at work there. It seems like the map is very hard to take or retake a site, but I think it’s just because no one knows the one pixel to look at while throwing a smoke to block off each CT holding spot and I’m sure it’ll balance out as people play the map. I think when the community gets a better grasp on the map, tactics will improve. Or it will get pulled from the pool after the operation.

I used to stay far away from casual when I last played (probably like a year ago) because it'd just devolve into everyone holding awps and autosnipers.

Smol posted:I realized today that I still have quite a lot of items from when I played CSGO. I was quite surprised to notice how much many of the items I’ve had have risen in price. For example, the knife I had has risen from less than 100€ to almost 400€. A random souvenir skin from watching a major just sold for 40€. All in all, if I can get all of this poo poo sold, I should get about 650€ in steambux.

a loathsome bird posted:What is the cash out site of choice these days, and are they still super sketchy? I have a bunch of old souvenir drops sitting around and hardly play the game these days. I also have one of the mega expensive stickers (3DMax I think?) which in my infinite wisdom I put on the stock Glock which you can't sell https://skinport.com/ https://cs.deals/ https://skinbaron.de/?appId=730&sort=BP&language=en These are the popular ones, I've used them and they are reliable - basically the sketchy ones you are talking about were the gambing websites, these are tradebots. Just check which ones has the best payment option for you(how to receive cash and site fee) that each site provides. https://csgofloat.com/ This one is different. It's a peer to peer website - you trade directly with the seller after the buyer deposits on the site. Or just sell stuff on steam if you buy lots of games and steam funds would be needed for your gaming habit.

Smol posted:I thought about that, but my Steam library is valuable enough that I wouldn’t want to risk getting banned for breaking the TOS. Free PC games for a couple of years or perhaps a 50% off Valve Index is good enough for me. You have the Chinese marketplace called BUFF and it's a peer to peer market place that requires you to give your Steam API key which is against Valve's TOS. However no one has had their account trade locked or banned for using that service. Also I typed "skins economy"

Tetramin posted:I mean I get that it can annoy people when some players dont have or use a mic, but so many players get so tilted about it. A lot of the voice chatter in games is pointless stuff you end up mentally discarding anyways. Obviously some calls are great, but people go way fuckin overboard when the information theyre giving you is already obvious or wrong. And going on tilt because a player isnt using a mic that much is worse than the player whos staying relatively quiet.

It's such a boring skin at least it seems to be going up in value somewhat The funniest thing about the end of the operation is the new subscription to show you your competitive stats. It would be funny if Valve didn't treat their userbase with outright contempt here (providing a paid service where you can get it for free).

ArfJason posted:cool tho last operation was too pricey for me, i hope this ones a bit cheaper Valve realised that the real money is in skins. There are heaps of collections for this operation. Interestingly Valve has a competition called Dreams and Nightmares themed skin competition a while back and they are giving away 100k for each winning skin. It was assumed it would be for this operation but it's a no show. Fast turn around for this operation too. I However do like the 10 man queue thing.

Not really a hot topic around here but CSGO had its first major in 2 years in Stockholm with Navi taking the crown. Also viewer numbers were exceptionally high (even after Valve nuked non-prime accounts). A Q.Final match had 1.35 million viewers which beat out the previous best GF match from 2017. The final match between Navi and G2 had more than 2.5 million viewers.

Reports of people going from GN4 straight to SMFC and Global. One of my friends went from GN3/4 to SMFC. I am in Oceania by the way. Also I ranked up from Silver Elite to GN3 most of my friends only ranked up 1 or 2 spots.

It's time to get a birthday coin. All you have to do is play the game until your XP bar fills up. So a couple of games, it has to be done by the 22nd. Tuscan is back after a long absence from CS. Breach and Anibus are old CSGO maps that are back in the competitive pool too.

Speaking of pro players I recently went to Dreamhack in Melbourne. It was cool to see Fallen get some awp action in. Although I can tell he is past his prime. The grand final was Imperial Sports vs Pain. With Pain winning in three maps. All Brazilian final.

It's the Legends stage of the major and the first 2 rounds have already been played. The previous major champions, Faze have lost both their rounds. While the other top 10 teams in the ESL rankings are looking very bad right now.

Is there anyway to find out at the end of the major how many people get each type of pickem' coin? I can't imagine there would be that many diamond coins compared to other majors.

Breaking Glass posted:I kind of hate the balance changes that feel like they over-fit to the pro-scene and don't really make even high rank competitive significantly better. It did seem like an update out of nowhere. I personally believe the AWP reduction is good but won't make much of a difference except for spamming shots though walls/smoke.
