Man, almost made the comeback happen. We went 3-12 on CT side dust2, lost pistol, managed to win an eco and tied the game, before having an unlucky round where they jump headshotted 2 of our guys with a scout. -_- Took us out of the zone sadly. I tried so hard to win. ;______;

Why do teammates always need drops?

Why can't they manage their money appropriately?

"Always" is a problem. "Occasionally" is better.

Also, keep in mind that managing money is a team effort, even for the high earners. If someone has (for various reasons like serving multiple rounds, bonuses, etc.) 10K+ and other teammates are at <4K, you should be dropping appropriate weapons for your teammates.

Sigh... I know. I just hate it when I buy an AK for someone so they can just rush solo with it and get picked.

My friends I play with know I'm pissed when I stop talking on mic.

The mission FAQ was highly needed, good to see that missions will save up if you don't play for a while.

The matchmaking changes to combat smurfing and account boosting are good too, hopefully it is enough of a deterrent to keep the rates of that low.

I really wish the community was more open to learning new maps.
Overpass and Cache are great, and I honestly think Cobble is great as well after the updates they gave it.
But I can never find a game on any of those maps (maybe Cache sometimes) after a certain rank. Everyone just plays the standard Dust2 Nuke Inferno Mirage.

Makes these missions impossible.

It's weird that they all dont have to play each other. Seems kind of unfair that the team that wins goes versus facing the other two teams

Translated from french from KQLY:

AS you saw yesterday, i have been banned by VAC and unfortunatly it was deserved.

I wanted to say that i'm really sorry for all the people who supported me, i'm aware that with this bullshit, my career is over and that my team is in a really bad situation. They didn't deserved that.

At the end of august, someone put me in contact with a dev called supex0 ( he had solid point and explained me that a lot of pros where using his soft ). I was curious, he gave me the access for 7days, and like an idiot, the temptation was too high and i wanted to try to see what it does on MM and FFA server.

Then i stop using it, i just joined Titan and i didn't need to take some useless risks while i had all i needed: A high level team, a good org... My curiosity killed my carreer after 12 years on the game.

I lost everything, and i'm not waiting for compasion, i did the stupid move and i will assume it. Unfortunatly everything stop here and one more time i'm sorry .

If you were going to "test" something out then why would you use it on your main account where if caught you stand to lose so much. SMH

The thing which is even more interesting is that he confirms sfm's story. He got in contact with this guy and he confirms that more pro players are using it.

Rip Kio, JW, olof, krimz, and so on...

Don't buy the "used outside of official match" excuse myself. Just looking for a lesser punishment.

pretty much

also I feel like any time anyone says "I'm not looking for forgiveness/compassion/etc." they usually are and are trying to use some reserve psychology to make the person think that they care.

No pro is gonna use aimbots for fucking deathmatch or casual, they barely even play them. and considering they stream a lot, we see that they usually only play matchmaking or something like esea/faceit

Yeah let me buy this hack so I can shit on xx420blazexx on Assault

Honestly I wish they'd just ban the players from attending DHW and let the teams get subs. Unless they can prove they were cheating in qualifiers there's no reason they need to boot the whole teams. As much as I hate facing cheaters, making their close friends hate them is a little too much punishment.

on the other hand what if the players and team knew and decided to take the risk? I mean it's been two years and while there's been cheaters, pro players were never at the center of it. Could have figured "hey, anytime we do some insane shit its OMG HES SO PRO"

When it comes to cheating, and the whole scandal going on right now, I wouldn't rule out players/orgs knowing stuff like this and deciding to take a risk. People will do anything when money is involved

Well, I usually don't like punishing people over what-ifs. Unless they had proof the teams got invited to DHW due to cheats they shouldn't be banning innocent players from attending an event they've been working towards for months. I'd hope Valve who is making money hand over fist now with this game could put a little more effort before wasting the money and preparation that these players put into DHW.

True, and I'm not saying we should ban people over what ifs but this sends a message. Letting Titan/Epsi still play but with subs doesn't. Have someone in your organization cheat and still reap the benefits of sticker sales and prize money!

While it's unfair to the players and orgs who might not be involved, it has to be done. Otherwise Fodder will be playing for NIP and they'll drop Get_Right

They are a team before they are individual players, it's completely fair to disqualify the whole team. It's debatable whether they shoudl be allowed to try and qualify again with a new 5th

Easy to say when it's not your time or money wasted. The message gets across loud and clear to the pro scene if they hand out hefty bans to the cheaters. Dropping entire teams from a tournament they've been preparing for is completely wrong unless they found out the team qualified with cheats being a factor. Valve just showing they don't know how to handle cheating in either the pro scene or regular matchmaking. Just a lazy way for Valve to make it seem like they care about cheating without doing anything that would lose them money.

As if pro gaming isn't already unstable enough, imagine losing thousands of dollars because a teammate used cheats in casual matches.

I have all 4 campaigns

The game with Atsuo didn't go too well sadly. Inferno is one of my worst maps. Way too close quarter and too many corners to check. I think Odah and I are the reason he's gonna quit CS:GO. ;__;

Haha, not at all. I don't think I can ever quit CS:GO. I have been playing CS for most of my life, and I am sure I will play it for a lot longer.

people shoot way too out of control on pistol rounds, or with pistols in general

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7i_i2TosrgE&list=UU6OHGiICrP52fYISdcYGKvw

While i'm no pro and that's just a random clip I saved, I usually get 3k/4ks on pistol rounds easily. Helps that people seem to have a jackhammer on their LMB. I also had that clip of my 4k on Inferno while eco'ing like 15 pages ago.

i watch a lot of CSGAFers play. just wanna say calm down brehs

unfortunately Lessons w/ Omega ends here since I suck outside of pistol rounds.
