Title: CS source

Apparently I'm not the only person who plays here. So discuss the best guns AKak47and some mad strategies.

Honestly I don't care for the AK or M4, but that's just me. I prefer the scoped assault rifles, because I like pretending that I can snipe :(

I actually played today for the first time in probably 6 months, and didn't do terribly. Granted it was a gungame server, but whatever. That was surprisingly fun.

I suck at sniping. I just need to practice my strafing and stopping and I'd almost have it down. Also AK is one of the best guns once you get it down and M4 has awesome spray.

Eh, if I wanted to spray, I'd use the P90. That gun freaking rules :V

Furthermore, I've decided that the 5-7 is awesome.

M4 has stronger bullets and a lot more accurate at range then the P90. Also the 5-7 is like the glock with a tiny bit more power. I'd try the compact (p228), it's probably they most controllable gun in the game and it's a little weaker then the deagal, use it once up close and they really wont have much of a chance.

Well yes, I know that, it's just that the P90 is so freaking satisfying to use.

Actually, I do like using the p228, and I agree, it's seriously underrated. I tend to prefer the 5-7 though, because it's hilariously accurate, it's pretty freaking easy to just spray away at people's head and take them out that way.

Also, another really underrated thing, the FA-MAS on burst. Freaking awesome :3

I wish more guns had it, it basically spaces all 3 of your shots within inches of each other so just aim for the neck.

Exactly, because even if you for some odd reason don't get a headshot (the third shot tends to be off by a fair margin), two bursts to the chest takes someone down.

Bleh, I need this game, but I have no money, so I'm kinda stuck, lol. I don't want to add another pirated game to my list of addictions anyway.

It's only like 20-25 bucks. If you buy it you can play with me and Flesy  ;D.

Okay, I'm tired of people of thinking AWP/auto sniper isn't cheap. One hit to the torso and it dose like 200+ damage, plus if you hit them in the arms while your holding a rifle it will go straight threw your arm and into your chest. That and it isn't even slightly hard to sniper with above 40 FPS.
Title: Re: CS source
Post by: Ulti on September 17, 2007, 01:22:41 AM
I honestly don't think the AWP is cheap, but the auto-snipers are a bit silly. They're fun to rush around and no-scope people with though, especially the CT variant.

The autos are weaker, and they get widely inaccurate when you fire more then 3 bullets in a row, even while crouching. Plus if your camping in the right place with an awp your basically invincible. It throws off the games gun balance for me.

Well, I tend to play only the official maps, if I can help it, because they're very well balanced. Plus you move slower than molasses with an AWP.

You pull out you're pistole and you run just as fast as anyone else. Also dust2 (the most overplayed map because people [nubcakes] tend to do better on maps they know) has extremely easy to cover bomb sites, especially if you plant on the edge of A and cover it from the pit all the way down the road.
Title: Re: CS source
Post by: Ulti on September 18, 2007, 03:27:10 PM
Irony, dust2 is probably my second favorite map, aside from aztec.
Title: Re: CS source
Post by: MortifiedocAlot on September 18, 2007, 07:34:56 PM
It's a good map, but I've played it to death. Also I only get around 15 average FPS on Aztec because of the rain.

Oh, ouch. The only map that ever hurts my system is militia, and only if I have HDR on.

Steam fucked css even further. It seems like every spray gun is way more controllable and the AKs kick seems almost twice what it used to be. I got spray headshoted about 50 times tonight. Then once I picked up a scout I aimed right at the middle of someones chest and fired and I got a head shot, so I ended up saying "fuck this" and quit.

The P90 seems way more accurate then it should be. I sprayed half way threw a clip and was still able to wave my cross hair across a guys face and hit him while moving. Also I think they weakened the AK and made the M4 stronger, so go figure.

As far as I'm concerned, CS's balance has been fucked up since it came out of beta years ago. :/  When you really think about it, for all of the weapons that they have, only a handful of them are actually worth using.
Title: Re: CS source
Post by: Ulti on September 24, 2007, 06:28:10 PM
Yes and no, because I tend to do pretty freaking well with really weird weapons, like the FA-MAS, or the UMP. A lot of the weapons you'd never think of using have advantages in certain situations, it's just that people whore the M4 and AK to no end.
Title: Re: CS source
Post by: Spectere on September 24, 2007, 07:51:13 PM
I dunno.  I have plenty of experience with how most of the weapons were and they really did make a lot of them useless.

Some of the other issues with the game are inexcusable.  The final straw was broken for me when ten shots with an MP5 did less damage than two shots with a Glock.  The devs seriously need to wake up and smell the petrol.

Whens the last time you've played? A glock shot to the chest dose about 20 damage now, if not less. The game has had decent balance for me, at least with AWP/Auto sniper restrictions. Shotguns work well up close, SMGs work well in smaller/medium areas, Rifles work better in medium/long range. It just seems like they've gimped the snipers and some rifles and made the SMGs more accurate.
Title: Re: CS source
Post by: Spectere on September 25, 2007, 12:10:35 AM
Not even a year ago.

It might not have been a Glock, but the fact that I sprayed someone with an MP5 at close range (10 hits, confirmed by the console, aimed at the back and head regions) and they turned around and killed me with a pistol (or, rather, that they should have been able to keep playing after that) is stupid as hell.  There's no reason they should have been able to survive that, armor or not.

Post by: MortifiedocAlot on September 25, 2007, 12:21:03 AM
Well the game is far from realistic, the term "dink" wouldn't exist if it was. TMP takes like 4 head shots just to drop someone. I'm pretty sure the MP5 dose over 50 damage with a head shot now, tho I know none of the SMGs kill in one shot. M4 used to not even be able to kill in a single shot, but I'm pretty sure it can now with that last update. I once did 24 damage with an AK head shot, so sometimes the damage gets goofy.
Title: Re: CS source
Post by: Spectere on September 25, 2007, 01:24:36 AM
I can deal with it not being perfectly realistic (shooters that strive too hard to be realistic usually aren't fun for most people) but it gets so much wrong that it makes me physically ill.  I've seen mods that don't claim to be close to realistic that still manage to get the whole "head shot = ur ded" thing right.
Title: Re: CS source
Post by: Ulti on September 25, 2007, 03:27:05 PM
I'm fairly sure the UMP is pretty close to a one-hit kill to the head.
