I like that Five-Seven. I would say add more AK skins, but the market prices would surely be ludicrous, so not like I would get any. The Mag-7 is a gun that needs some good skins.

Does anybody here play matchmaking? I've just been floating between Gold Nova 2 and 3, and it's getting boring playing matchmaking with random strangers.

Just took a look at both maps.

I like cobblestone, although ere seem to be A LOT of hidingspots everywhere, looking forward to playing it. They seemed to really have improved it a lot though, lots of new ways through the map.
I have some performance issues on the map though, sometimes I dip under 100 frames, which never ever happens on any map.

overpass, I don't know. Will have to play it first. Bombsite B, if you can call it that, seems reall, REALLY small.

CSGO TV should be better done. Dunno if they're giving viewer gifts or not with this update because of how sparse the info is and you can't go to lesser viewed/new games before the rush for gifts come in.

I have forgotten how to aim. Yes, I am completely serious. I struggle to hit people in the chest now. There goes all the progress I have made.

Confirmed, I'm terrible at Counter-Strike and should go home and play against Bots as a family man.

I've been playing too much competitive and can't do anything but AWP now

my aim is atrocious with every other gun so I feel your pain Uriah. I was just starting to feel confident that I was improving, and now I go back to hitting the air 95% of the time

They are already in game.
People hoping they are just reskinning the Bank level terrorists and that it isn't a full blown hat invasion.

Looks like maybe it's a crossover event? Payday just had this added which was posted on Reddit by A Valve Employee.

Payday

it's probably just Terrorists themed.

like you said, Payday added a new heist (I think it's for the holidays only) which is an exact copy of Bank.

they don't need hats in CS, they have to make tons of money off the guns/knives alone.

The Payday crew being the terrorists would make sense. US on Bank is SWAT, right? There's SWAT guys in Payday 2's heists to try to stop the Payday crew. So I could see it being that.

Double so since they (Overkill) hinted at the "GO Bank heist" isn't going anywhere compared to Payday 2's Halloween heist.

I'll use em since they are worth like 3 cents on the market.

I just said screw it and bought a Stattrak Graphite Nova for 2 dollars to feel better. I never learn with these fucking cases but I want a knife so bad. Usually just better off buying the gun you want. Though most m4/ak/awp skins go for way too much.

So... the watching gift participation thing: Is it only for Operation Bravo owners?

I also got one of those gold cases and everyone in the server wanted me to give it to them. So I sold it for 5 bucks. That alone just returned the cost of the game to me. I've made like $30 in Steam wallet credit off GO so far. It's the game that keeps on giving!

Finally putting some time aside for CS. Been playing way too much WOW lately, plus some BF4 and D3. Question, can you only level up the Operation Bravo coin by playing the maps on competitive, or will casual suffice?


That stat site is neat. Wish the in game stats were a little more in depth.

Negative KDR, Negative KDR everywhere.

Faster aimers than me + bloom = death.

I think I should just stick to bot matches like I've been doing.

Doesn't it require competitive wins? I think 5 for Bronze and then 15 for Gold.

It says competitive wins if you look at the Bravo Coin, but it will increment with wins in Casual Matchmaking.

I would love an invite Antonius and I can work on a logo - I have some time to kill right now.

Just made it public since it seems I can only add people on my friends list. Feel free to join.

BTW That terrible logo is a place holder lol.
