I really need some people to play with, solo queuing with these Russians and other Eastern European scum* is really ruining this game for me. I now just mute them after the first 'fucking retard' or similar insults. Too bad you can't mute people in text chat, the constant spamming is annoying as hell.

Please, Euro-CSGO-GAF, add me on steam and help me get rid of these demons.

again apologies if someone reading this is from there, I'm sure you're not one of them.

Serious question, hope it doesn't come across as trollish but i'm a former CAL-i player who hit Global Elite before the PS4 came out, and now i've been a console douche for the last year or so.

I re-installed GO after watching some of this past tournament and getting the itch, and I've obviously missed a few content packs.

My question is: Why would anyone put specific Clan stickers on their guns if they weren't in said clan?

Just curious, thanks in advance. No idea whats going on with these stickers, would appreciate any insight.

Fans. These teams are starting to have followings like any professional organization.

I've always wanted custom sprays added to the game just like CS 1.6... but now if they ever do it, they'd probably make it cost you money :(

Best part is when they're calling things out to you and getting mad in Russian and you have no idea what they're saying.

Custom sprays would suck, I saw enough porn and goatse sprays in 1.6. They could make sprays into a real money maker, have team logos, random cool stuff etc and make them like stickers that you can buy for say 15p each, make them really affordable so people are more likely to buy lots of them.

Guys, I really suck at CSGO because I'm new, but can I play with some of you sometime?

And don't misunderstand me, I'm not being humble or downplaying myself or anything. I suck. HARD.

EDIT: Apparently I just need the server IP? And what do you guys do for voice chat? I've never downloaded or used mumble or anything, so I'll have to do that if that's what you use.

Just started recently as well, and I'm pretty terrible too. Just playing deathmatch for now to practice shooting because it feels so hard to kill anybody. Not sure how else to practice. I was thinking of checking out the GAF server, but it seems empty most of the time.

sup, gaf?

did anyone get the 75 points in the pick'em up game? i came up short with 71 :(
Click to expand...
I thought I got 2/3 picks on the last day but thankfully I ended up 1/3. I needed all three for the gold, so if I missed it by one I would have lived a life of regret from then on. But I was pretty confident in my picks and would've done the same if I could do it again, so I'm content with the silver.

Just remember to be still when you're actually shooting. Keep your crosshair fully dynamic until you get a feel for it.

yeah, i got 2/3 on the last day. shouldnt have bet on dignitas. fnatic was very strong and consistent even with the recent roster change.

i also messed up when i bet on vp instead of fnatic on the 3rd day. getting the 75 points was pretty much impossible when all the teams were playing so good. I was very surprised by epsilon and ldlc as well. oh well.

Thanks for the tip. Will try the crosshair thing. I'm always used to running and gunning and spraying in shooters, and I'm certainly noticing that it doesn't work at all like that in this game.

Yeah, standing still to shoot definitely feels weird at first, but you'll get used to it. You'll also know when to move and shoot, when to spray, and when to tap-shoot.

Another thing that will help, but is painful when you first do it, is turning down your mouse sensitivity so you can do really fine, controlled movements with your aiming. There's a bunch of guides on it if you do a YT search for stuff like "Counter Strike mouse setting guide."

Do you get Op Breakout weapon cases through normal drops and missions? Or only if you buy a key?

Oh yeah, and is there just the one Gaf server? Or am I missing something? I got on around 1030 tonight and it was all bots. Seems like the few times I've gotten on there hasn't been anyone there.

anyone got any experience playing CSGO at 4K? I'm tempted to pull the trigger on the 590d from Samsung but I get the feeling my single gtx 670 isnt going to be a solid 60 frames. I suppose it wouldnt be a huge deal to run at 1440p or anything, but I'd love some input (cant seem to find any benchmarks)

Yeah... I've been fluctuating between double AK and badge for a while now but kind of stabilized for the past few weeks, oh well!

Yeah I got 76 points. I luckily picked perfectly on the final day and got there. I thought I was screwed. Not sure if it was really worth the $10 bucks of stickers but I just told myself that I was supporting the tournament scene. It did make all the matches more exciting.

So hard to play alone when you're Supreme.

Are you NA or EU? I fluctuate between DMG and Eagle. I've been wanting to play with gaf'ers, but not very many around my skill group. Poor, poor silver and novas..smh.

How can I get good? In dm I can aim, in comp I can't most of the time (despite playing with silvers) and i can't clutch if my life depended on it.
