We haven't had this talk in a while.

What headphones / mic combos are you guys using?

I'm looking at moving from my

Sennheiser HD 280 Pros to Audio-Technica ATH-M50x

I'm also using a modmic.

I've got Sennheiser PC 323D G4ME for my headphones and a Blue Yeti Blackout for my mic.

I think this strategy actually works better than it did in old nuke as the timings are changed slightly and you can no longer watch squeaky from rafters, so a molly at the beginning of the round is the only way to consistently stop at least one guy from getting down there unless you have one of the best CT spawns

Unrelated...I am kind of a shitter with the AWP, but buying it to play A site on overpass (as CT) has made that map actually fun to play for me, whereas I pretty much hate it as a rifler. If you watch some of the pros like fallen/jw/skadoodle it's tons of fun trying to emulate that style alternating aggression with using the ins and outs of the bathrooms and long/dumpster area.

Or get someone playing Mini, that guy can stop a 5-man Vent Rush no problem, unless it's me.

E: There are some really good smokes and flashes in that vid, thanks!

That said, to a fault my team almost always goes contact on pistol rounds and we've for instance been owned several times doing contact B on mirage where a molly just decimates our push before we can even get out of apps

Nothing kills a B Rush more than needing to wait for a molly. It's the worst.

ya, i think the benefits come more from a psychological standpoint, especially how people are used to certain resolutions and changing would throw them off

It's probably related to The Dunning Krueger Effect. You changed something, noticed a better game/round and ignored worse games/rounds. Thorin did a pretty good video about it that was linked a while back.

What if they did a picture in picture type of thing that primarily shows the 3rd person overlook of the site/area being taken, and a smaller "screen" for the first person action too. That way old players and new comers alike can get a lot of what they both want.

Mine is set to 60 or so, I think that's only for your own ping though.

You'd think it'd be fine since you'll run into high ping enemies from time to time too, but let's be honest watching enemies teleport out of your crosshairs is just as annoying as having a laggy teammate :negative:

I'm not 100% but I think it is for your initial ping to the server before the ready option comes up. Again I'm not certain though.
