Cs:source

[Tikloos]

Who play css?

 

[Tikloos]

Can you teach me some skills/tactics?

 

[Saint Nick]

i own it, but i don't really like it. i used to play it here and there but i kind of got tired of FPS. they are cool and all, but i've really been getting back into my old consoles again. namely my SNES and my N64. i also love GT4

 

[Tikloos]

old games always cool..
but css i played alot, then got out of it.. now im in again

 

[jtvang125]

I played a few rounds on a LAN. I don't see what the big fuss is about this game. And where is the recoil on the weapons?

I like DoD way more.

 

[Tikloos]

nah css its OWNAGE.. just play it more to love it

 

[TheoPetro]

i play it alot but honestly i dont know what skills/tactics to teach ya. i can tell you what not to do tho.

dont rush at 6 terrorists when your a ct only armed w/ a pump shotty. yes i do this oftin and yes i die but im too impatient to camp and wait at choke points. made me a surgical w/ that thing tho.

dont rush an awper w/ a pump shotty.....when your 50 yards away.

dont camp. that pisses me off like crazy. i dont like searching every obscure camping spot only to kill them in one shot. makes for a MUCH longer game.

when your awping dont let me on that server. me and my scout will tear you a new one.

OOO i thought of somethen TO do. make your first shot count. every first shot (before recoil kicks your ass) get them in the head or somewhere near it. dont start shooting madly when you see someone. take that extra 1/2 a sec to line it up. even if there shooting first. if they havnt killed ya w/ their first shot chances are it wont be untill they pause again to steady that they can get another accurate shot off. so wait a bit longer and get some headshots.

EDIT: im BacardI151 on CSS

 

[hdeck]

i hate the game. still play 1.6 more.

 

[Tikloos]

well i think css alot better graphics and things

 

[Maximilian]

Tactic: Run to chokepoint, throw smoke grenade, get shot in the head multiple times, get frustrated, uninstall.

 

[meltdown75]

i have it, but the only Source-based game I play at the moment is HL2: Deathmatch. I'll eventually get DOD, hopefully.

well at leats you got your recoil. i hate dod recoil. one shot and you crosshair is at the top of your screen.

 

[Xyo II]

Crouch when you shoot.

 

[Saint Nick]

i really can't get into this game. i really tried. i love playing HL2 i can't wait for goldeneye source... and they are finally doing a complete re-do of half-life. so i'm excited for those.

Don't spray. It's horribly inaccurate. Especially when using rifles like the AK-47 and Colt, use 3 shot bursts. Much more accurate.

 

[0roo0roo]

aim for the head with pistols like the deagle....ur not likely to live long enough to put enough shots into the chest to kill the guy..same with other pistols generally. unless u know they are almost dead.

run around with your crosshairs always aimed where potential targets will be.. so no staring and the ground or sky/wall bs u sometimes see in spectator mode. u need that fraction of a second saved so u can fire first. and yes running and gunning at distance ruins ur chances of hitting anything. 3-4 shot burst while standing still for a moment does the trick with rifles. aim for the neck, the shots will climb to the head most of the time.

and don't run for the first 15 seconds or whatever of a round with a rifle out slowing u down.. run with knife until u get near the hotzone. speed matters in the early rush unless ur team is full of ninnys. plus people behind u just get into a freakin traffic jam, annoying as hell.

and use buy scripts. its easy now http://www.cstrike-planet.com/files/25
install it and u can just bind guns and ammo to keys in regular menu options. i use the number pad for my most common stuff. buy quick and then run like mad at the start of round.

i also use quick weapon switch in options so one number press changes weapons, and no auto weapon pickup switch since i sometimes use a pistol, and accidently picking up a rifle during a firefight is a sad way to die.

The original CS is better.

Yeah..I have both and the oringal CS is much better. True I have played it pretty much from the first beta(oh back in the good old days), but still..its just a solid game.

But really..what can you expect? WHen CS first was made it was glitchy as hell, so we really cant blame CS S for being as great...except that it has a major company backing it and it should be atelast a bit better.

Still..A lot of things are the same in CS and CS S. Things to remember.

1. Flashes! They rule..they are your friend..learn how to use them.
2. I am pretty sure its the same in CS S. Just incase I tell ya anyway. If you shoot and then side step your aim resets a bit. Give it a shot to see if ti works. Make sure to stop completely. Basically this means you should do small bursts then side step..fire again.
3. ALWAYS shoot for the head. People can hit you tons of times but if you get the first headshot your gonna win the fight. I got really good at this by playing maps like ICEWORD for the original CS. Its a small map with no mission..just killing so it goes really fast. Play the map or one like it and ONLY shoot at the head. Dont let yourself shoot at anything..or take pride in any kill unless its a headshot.
4. Walk. If you arnt going somewhere in a hurray be sneaky. This isnt like Quake3 where its the best to go as fast aas possible. The first person that sees eachother first wins!
5. Know when to advacne and when not to. DOnt go rushing in its not going to work unless you are really good at headshoting quick.
6. KNOW THE MAP. Even a sucky person who knows the map like the back of thier hands can own. Learn what parts of the map make certain noises so u know where people are at all times.
7. Always burst fire unless you are close up. 1-3 for the AK 3-4 for the colt.
8. Crouch to make your aim more accurate..but odnt always do this...it makes u easy to kill.
9. Dont Die.

its mostly people that have played the original for a long time. Its polished..its tested and well done. Thats why competition on it is much better. Also source is a lot easier..which makes it less fun. Simple graphics..simple fun.

You should put down that we own it but never bother to play it

 

[The Green Bean]

CSS IS a bit too easy. I used to play a ot of 1.6 on LAN, but CSS has never gotten the number of players that 1.6 enjoyed and still enjoys here in Pakiland. Headshots are far too common because its so easy to hit one.

 

[cirrhosis]

I can't stand CS S. I just play it all wrong. Rush, die, rinse repeat.

The only game I have been playing for over a year is HL2 Deathmatch/Team Deathmatch. Been doing leagueing along with my clan and having the time of my gaming life nearly nightly.

You gots a PM, meltdown.

 

[Xyclone]

I used to play everyday, now I just play often. Still a great game, but I'm playing Prince of Persia: T2T now.

 

[Tikloos]

i think i prefer css, coz it more fun as it new and it that u dont freeze wen shot
