I bought the CS:GO despite it not being 75% off under the impression that I would make my money back slowly selling crates gained from every match but I have yet to get anything in the games I've played.
More importantly, I'm terrible at CS:GO and I'm not sure what to do to change that. There are somethings like never really playing CS before, not knowing the maps and guns but the rest just baffles me. In every encounter, I'll shoot significantly more bullets but the inevitable death screens says I hit them once (if that) for <50 damage while they maybe shoot three bullets and do 150 body shot damage. I'm not holding down the fire button, I'm burst firing to try to keep my accuracy up but I don't understand what I'm doing wrong. I'm also playing under casual hoping to play with other people who are just as bad but it just seems like I'm grouped with people who know what they are doing. The community in game hasn't been helpful either so I'm starting to regret picking up the game. I didn't want to learn another multiplayer game and thought I could get away with playing the odd match every so often.
For the older, normal masks it's pure luck. For the latest DLC packs, you get masks by completing objectives. The baboon one is pretty easy, just kill 7 enemies in 11 seconds with a shotgun.

Lol you even got a Santa Mask for Payday 2 to go along with it. I still haven't figured out how I'm supposed to get masks. I bought the new Gage Shotgun DLC, and I still can't get my Baboon mask

memes in the form of text are also applicable for those that can't handle the deluge of images

Can you link me to this bundle? Can't find it, been looking for Stronghold HD cheap FOREVER. I got just enough during the summer sale to afford it but then the price was raised from 2$ to $5

I want to get into this whole survival genre stuff that has been popular lately (rust, dayz, the forest etc) but tbh without a story/campaign or an end goal to work towards I know I'd just get bored really quickly (same reason why I don't play minecraft or multiplayer really tbh, I'm a story focused guy).
Are there any survival games with a campaign? You'd think with how many there are that someone would try to put one in.

It's not in the current weekly though.
The Forest is probably gonna end up having a clear objective/sort of a story considering the setup is the local tribe taking away your kid
that sounds like it has an ending to me
Check out The Forest.
It's still early access but comes out in a week, I believe.
It looks like there's, while not a campaign per say, a story of some sort.
EDIT: I lied. It's just another release update, not a full release.

State of Decay has preset characters and you're constantly working towards new story events.

Oh no. That's what I get for getting afk for an hour. Missed it.

That sounds like the sort of thing that I'm looking for. I didn't like the demo when I tried it but maybe it's worth another look.
May have to keep an eye on The Forest too.
the bundle ended :/ it was last week's Humble Weekly
yea it's not. but Humble allows you to increase your contribution for expired bundles to get the higher tiers (for a limited amount of time.. think it was 30days?)

Really? Oh okay. Didn't know about that.
But seriously, it seems like I'm missing something fundamental without a place to experiment and learn.
yeah they matched the steam sale price
kickin myself for being asleep during that, lol

It's been so long since I've played Civ IV that getting used to the old graphics again is really jarring.
Once again, thanks rico. Sent you a pm because I don't want a post that just says "thank you" clogging up the thread even more. But since I'm playing it, might as well mention thanks now

Got three gaffers playing if anyone wants to join us (CSGO).
There's a custom map on CS GO that spawns infinite bots in order to help you practice your aim/headshotting. Can't remember how it's called but I'm pretty sure that there are a lot of guides on Steam that are using it

Yes, join ussss......
aim_ak_colt or aim_map something like that yeah.
one of us...!
You guys doing casual? I got my operation breakout pass but I probably wont be on long enough for competative since my buddy's coming to pick me up soon. If casual I'll jump in for awhile
MarcoZombieCannon
