[QUOTE=Altimor;47766106]Why do people play with first person tracers off? It gives you feedback on your shot trajectories which can help you wrangle in a screwy spray, and when you get a perfect spraydown you get to watch all your shots go directly to the guy. It's satisfying like the stream of hit sounds when you get a perfect LG in Q3.[/QUOTE] I'm not sure wether it's true or not, but I believe it's because some people feel the tracers are not accurate

[QUOTE=Sweet Berries;47766325]I'm not sure wether it's true or not, but I believe it's because some people feel the tracers are not accurate[/QUOTE] The "inaccuracy" stems from the fact that tracers are projectiles while bullets are not. If you have to use them you need to look at the direction they're going and not where/when they're hitting.

This is why you can sometimes shoot a window/vent and have your client render a hit without it breaking because the servers RNG differs from yours and won't register it. So people disabled it since it is now more confusing than helpful

It's not that anyways, since everyone has had fp tracers disabled since beta. I assume people just did it because they were used to the previous games which didn't have tracers and it caught on. I don't see any reason to disable a visual representation of recoil. It'll also help you get better since if a part of your spray is off the tracers will show what's happening. I played 1000 hours with tracers off too, after turning them on I haven't been confused by them at all. They just show me if my spray control is off in a certain situation and then I can fix it.

Oh my god. So I never really bet, and when I do I never do over $10, in a tired haze I thought 'I know, I'll bet $70 on NIP what's the worst that could happen.' You have no idea how fast my heart was racing during that triple overtime.. [img]http://i.imgur.com/nwSYvQS.png[/img]

Pulled off a 1v5 retake only to not have time for the defuse :((

So I had some weird teams lately, lots of poles and russians with "fack yu" and "rash b". [t]https://hostr.co/file/V6ZqaDdSUgNN/blocker.PNG[/t] Why does this happen at random times? This is the third time it unblocks a lot of servers.

Did like, every steam server restart?

I have tracers on but mostly for enemies. I get "lots" of kills (maybe 2 a game?) through smokes or from cat to apartments on mirage just by aiming in the general area of them. Other than that they aren't something I pay attention to

Friend of mine just unboxed a vanilla Karambit. He unboxed 2 Hyper Beasts last week too, so he's doing well for himself. [editline]20th May 2015[/editline] his reaction is that he's in hysterics. source: I'm in a Skype call with him currently

Sound/tracers aren't much of an advantage compared to 10 more rounds to smoke spam/prefire with and however many extra mags you get. I switched to the A4 back when they were the same price.

Which when you do the math is 2x as much as you need in a competitive game. Better than any gun, except tec-9 which is just godly. [editline]21st May 2015[/editline] Seriously though I pretty much just use it because I haven't practiced with the A4 in years and I don't have a cool skin for it. I might swap back just for the price to see if it's any good.

Well, hit a rough patch of games... This one T who was on tunnel, picks up his friend's awp, aims at the last box on the platform, at the precise spot my teammate's head is at, and shoots for a headshot, without him ever getting out of cover lol.

Took a gamble and bought a bunch of $1.50~ stattrak guns (FAMAS sergeants to be exact) and traded 'em up. Got a well-worn stat-trak redline worth $30. Wondering if I should hold on to it or sell it and do it again. The factory new stattrak redlines go up to $100

After quite a long break from the game, I came back and played a round of competitive to rerank. I expected to get back at the Nova 2 status that I had before I left, but surprisingly it placed me at Nova 4! I'm super happy. :dance:

played a few more MMs today ranked up again aw yeah [img]http://i.imgur.com/ojy4b5V.png[/img] :downs:

[del]In most cases it's just the cone edges that are outside the hitboxes, so the real difference is a lot less than comparing spread areas would have you believe.[/del] Whoops I got that backwards, it doesn't really matter on headshots, but for pelvis/stomach sprays there's a magic distance around 30m where the A1 really starts being better, like around ~18% better. That number only applies to perfect aim too. The A4 benefits prefiring and wall/smoke spamming, the A1 benefits in long range sprays. They both have their niches and I'd say they're quite balanced. The real M16A4 of GO is the SG556. AK damage, M4 RoF, laser accuracy and a magic stat buffing scope. Amazing buy if you go for aim duels a lot, it doesn't get the appreciation it deserves. I have a crosshair cvar trick that makes the scope reticle smaller and easier to see, will post on my PC

I use the M4A1-S because it's what I first learned to use when I got CS:GO. I can't get used to the A4 for some weird reason. I like the SG but I still need to practice the spray pattern. Baby steps, you know

I shot at people's feet whenever I got dropped an A1 until I practiced it. Magic scope reticle cvars [code]] cl_crosshaircolor_b "cl_crosshaircolor_b" = "-999950" ( def. "50" ) client archive ss ] cl_crosshaircolor_g "cl_crosshaircolor_g" = "0" ( def. "250" ) client archive ss ] cl_crosshaircolor_r "cl_crosshaircolor_r" = "-999950" ( def. "50" ) client archive ss [/code] This gives you a pink reticle unscoped, and a smaller than normal green reticle that turns black when aimed at a white surface while scoped. Thanks for the lack of bounds checks Valve.

Chatbind Spammers are the worst fucking thing. I thought they would be gone by LE but they're still in almost every match. There should really be restrictions on that sort of thing.

[QUOTE=Tsanummy;47769495]Report -> Text abuse[/QUOTE] That's what I've been doing, but do people actually get banned for that?

[QUOTE=Tsanummy;47769495]Report -> Text abuse[/QUOTE] voice and text abuse do nothing iirc just mute them and move on, i fail to see how chatbind spamming is a problem. its either shitposting or a tactic to put you on tilt and if you let it get to you that badly youre giving them what they want. either mute them or ignore it.

i met some guys to queue with, and this one guy brings his 13 year old polish friend that speaks like 6 words of english and 3 of them are shit, fuck and faggot he doesn't listen to a word you say, doesn't call anything, but has mad aim and is somehow mge. guy spams aimbot:ON and wallhack:ON via chat bind at the start of every round and it's the most annoying shit ever
