Unfortunately I had ShadowPlay disabled, otherwise I would have had plenty gif-able material from my point of view.

I also would have taken some screenshots myself if I had remembered that this death capture function existed.

 

[Messiah]

Went all in on Fnatic vs Dignitrash. Inb4 Fnatic screwing up.

 

[MayMay]

Had some of the best matches in CSGO I've had in a long time today, even with broken ping of 180ish on US servers (special thanks to my ISP for messing up the routing). My lobby was pretty unstoppable. So much fun. Now.. placing some bets and then Ill probably go to bed.

Btw I don't know how I feel about the changes on Cobble. I mean they still didn't fix the drop room. Its so easy to camp and wait for a drop.

True, might as well call it suicide room.

 

[Rivitur]

Come on Mobility! Never forget:

 

[garath]

All these 2 and 3 cent skin winnings. Garbage. Probably just going to be them all on some longshot

 

[Shadownet]

Come on Mobility! Never forget:

W0t the story here?

 

[Rivitur]

W0t the story here?

Mobility v IBP in the ESWC NA qualifier. Mobility were on Eco so they created a human pyramid (tank of mass destruction) to combat the rifles.

They went on to lose against iBP 16-14 but still got a spot for the lan tournament because they were 2nd place.

Did that human pyramid work? lol I feel like that is something you should do on CT when you know they're pushing a site not the other way around.

Sadly.. No

Imagine walking into b-site through tunnel as a human pyramid tho.

 

[K.Sabot]

I need a video of that, but my google fu is failing.

also this is what happens when you are a c9 fanboy.

You're a Hiko fanboy.

Spoiler

It's okay me too.

Nah Sgares fanboy.

he's so pretty.

 

[MayMay]

-"kill" command is no longer possible in competitive matchmaking matches ( except during warmup ).

...

That was still a better way to end the match fast compared to surrendering lol.

 

[Shadownet]

The Lunatik vs Mobility game has been on hold for a while now.. come on... I got $200 riding on Mobility.

 

[MayMay]

So why's the match on hold? DDoS? Does that mean the C9 match is gonna be postponed? Same stream after all. Or maybe they'll just postpone the current match and start the C9 one..

 

[Shadownet]

Some people are saying its because of DDOS, some are saying its because of the CS:GO update.

Yeah they're pushing the C9 vs NCG match back.

 

[Haroon]

"kill" command is no longer possible in competitive matchmaking matches ( except during warmup ).

Noooo! My only way to combat blatant hackers . Now I will have to minimize the game, and check after about ten minutes.

 

[K.Sabot]

Oh no I can no longer jump out of b tunnels on dust 2 and kill myself to confuse the other team.

 

[K.Sabot]

That hiko scoreline though.

Hiko: the new fiffy

 

[Rivitur]

Well that was easy.

 

[littleworm]

Any tips on getting out of a funk? I don't wanna get de-ranked again.

 

[K.Sabot]

Started with just the 1 electric hive today. Oh I also took like $5 of the returns back. (also the titan and c9 holos I got)

Today was a good day.

Almost back to pre-asiimov levels.

 

[Rivitur]

Don't play with or against Russians.

 

[lastflowers]

Battle-Scarred Asiimov M4a4 off of ibuypower. 21$ return instead of 16, niiiiice. 40$ gained today

I got a Stat Trak AWP Electric Hive (FT) from C9.

 

[MasterChef420]

Whats the deal with some of these achievements not unlocking?
I walked (not making footstep noise) and killed a player. Didnt unlock.
Then i jumped and killed an enemy twice. No unlock.

The new update is causing all kinds of trouble. Expect an update tomorrow

 

[Unknown One]

I'm lagging like crazy after this update. Rubberbanding/spikes/etc. Pissing me off.

 

[Mokoi]

Game has really been acting like shit, and I get massive stuttering when I go into the buy menu. That update caused more problems than it was supposed to fix.

 

[Rivitur]

If any of you feel like legit gambling with your skins then bet on the Chinese games in 7hrs.

 

[Omega]

I've ranked down to single AK... i seem to have more success at deranking than actual derankers

I was never amazing at the game but I got to DMG solo queuing. took a break and since i came back i think i've won 1 match, and that 1 match wasn't even because of me. i've just lost complete confidence when it comes to competitive

Worst part is I can't even AWP anymore. I'd usually be the AWPer on the team. now it's some guy who needs 7 shots to kill someone.

 

[impact]

So does the operation being slashed to 99 cents mean it's ending soon?

 

[K.Sabot]

So does the operation being slashed to 99 cents mean it's ending soon?

Oct 3 is the assumed date.

 

[CountAntonius]

So does the operation being slashed to 99 cents mean it's ending soon?

Nope. They usually drop once or twice.

 

[Unknown One]

If you play enough it'll pay itself off. 1 dollar is nothing.

 

[Shadownet]

yeah I don't feel comfortable betting on any of these asian games. no offense. going to skip.

 

[CountAntonius]

If you play enough it'll pay itself off. 1 dollar is nothing.

Yeah. The Breakout cases still go for over a dollar on the market.

 

[ChrisW]

I have 0.60 in my steam wallet, better to spend it on one gun to bet or split it into several 0.5 guns to bet on more matches? I'm guessing the latter

 

[Arucardo]

When you see a pro miss someone in the peripheral it's usually because of low FOV and some pro's still use 4:3 ratio (you get a more "zoomed" in view with these)

 

[Shadownet]

So 4:3 is better? Sometimes I have to squint to see a person who is pretty damn far away from me.

 

[PriitV]

Not really, some pro's still use 4:3 as that's what they had on their CRT's back in the 1.6 days. Change is hard.
I'll link a video later when I get home where one of the pro explains the rationale behind using low res and arhaic aspect ratios on a modern screen.

 

[ViviOggi]

I just wanted a nice buffer of betting skins, why did Dicknitas have to take it

 

[CoolS]

Ugh was right about the update being small. And on top of that they added even more bugs. Looks like I won't be playing today after being away from my PC for a week.

 

[Crazy_maniac]

Dem textures. Is that 1.6?

I have to put them on low because of dem optimisations.

But you didn't post the flying molly!

How can on change/lower the game's FoV?

 

[Divius]

 

[Haroon]

How can on change/lower the game's FoV?

It depends on your resolution. If you are running 16:9 resolution (1280x720, 1920x1080) you will get a higher field of view. But if you're running the resolution at 4:3 (640x480, 800x600) you will get a lower field of view. The reason why some players still use 4:3 resolution is because they want to keep their game consistent. Changing the resolution has a big impact of your sensitivity so, you would need to get used to it a new sensitivity as well. In Counter-Strike, consistency is the key to success.

Also, my bets for today (current record 17 wins out of 20):

 

[garath]

Well I've got everything I have in csgolounge on a match again today

All my cheapy skins on GGL over LDLC for a longshot.

Fnatic over Dignitas - after watching both teams yesterday, it seems pretty clear fnatic is the superior team.

Titan over LDLC - watched both teams and feel like Titan is stronger. It's the closest odds match I'm betting on all day.
