I feel like I've asked this before, but it's crazy if there really isn't an answer. Is there any legal way to disable musical cues ingame? The game sounds are already so loud I feel like my hearing will be damaged with earphones if the entire game volume isn't turned down.

And even with the game volume turned way down, the "deathmatch bonus weapon kill" is INSANELY loud. Also, the dominated/dominating jingles temporarily lower the volume of other sounds, meaning you can't hear footsteps or anything if you happen to dominate someone.

Pretty sure you can turn off all music and/or customize which music you want to hear in the audio menu. I have it so that I only hear the 10 second timer music.

This is my audio settings screen:

My master music volume is completely set to 0. Do I need to lower the other sliders as well? I don't see any slider for the "bonus weapon kill", "dominated", or "dominating" musical jingles.

seems like something you might try before asking. personally never even heard one of those sounds.
 
I am also in the MG range, I've been playing with 2 real life friends that are new to CS. Its been rough trying to get them to transition to a game where you really have to work as a team and every choice in the round matters. Would be cool to have some GAF folks to round out a team or play with then they aren't around. PM me your Steam name and I can add you guys.

Im MGE right now. Feel free to add me.


I used to love playing on Office in casual. Never played it in competitive until today. Probably one of my most hated maps now (didn't help that we had two shit guys on our team) lol. Got steam rolled! xD

They only play in deathmatch and arms race as far as I know. Since you suggested trying them, I tried setting them all to 0. From a quick test, the death music and dominated music still plays in arms race, even with master and all sliders 0.

if its really annoying, try community dms and gungame servers, which are the same thing just less weird.

Why isn't there a Star Wars RPG? And wouldn't James Bond make for a pretty good FPS?

You can't turn down server specific sound effects I think.
Next time you're in a server with these sound effects write !help, !commands or something like that in chat and see if there is a command to disable the sounds.

At 14 competitive wins now, and got to GNM. Would definitely like to play with others, if someone is interested. I think I'm about a MG2/MGE player, after I start consistently playing again.

18 wins now. Got to MG2. I guess maybe I'm DMG? Lol.

My inventory is STILL BROKEN.

Is there/has there ever been a NeoGAF CS:GO server, where fellow gaffers join and play? Would that be something people are interested in?

We have one, and tended to play 10mans on it quite regularly until Fallout 4 came out and everyone got sucked in by that haha.

We usually announce in here when we plan to play on the Gaf server

Edit: I should probably mention that the server is currently in EU territory

multi-1v1/ffa dm would be fun on the gaf server, that way everyone could warm up together and we wouldn't lose the first game every night! :>

Where can I get this info/server IP?
 
Man I'm playing CS super terrible now that I haven't really been playing it much anymore. Can't fucking do anything properly right now. :(

RiP My Eagle, guess I'll grind back up to you after I probably derank to MGE because I can hardly play in DMG properly.
