Getting scores like 1-27 and stuff like that :D Obviously I realise with games like these practice is the main component to improving, but if you guys have any tips for newbies then I'm all ears, I'll probs need them tomorrow night :D
When I first started playing CS1.3, I played with bots alot. There are a bot that can only be killed by headshotting. It helps your aim skill drastically. After that, I played a 24 man defuse map. Then I started play on server with less people. After like 2 years, I do pretty well in 5vs5.

People who switched to source from 1.6 should feel at home with cs go because it is still using the source graphic and the only quirks and things they have to relearn is the recoil . No more spraying at the feet of the opponent to get head shot ..

I'm attempting this fix but when I get to the point where I run the software to update my bios it gives me the following error:
"Unsupported 16-bit Application
The program or feature "___blahblah_________" cannot start or run due to incompatibility with 64-bit versions of Windows. Please contact the software vendor to ask if a 64-bit Windows compatible version is available."
There's nothing on the site that points to like, a 64-bit version. I'm fucking stumped.
One thing I dig about this game is that the spray patterns are consistent, unlike CS:S where each gun had varying spray patterns. e.g. In GO, M4A4 is always up left right left. AK47 is always a backwards 7 with the top of the 7 being right left (then after five bullets) right.
Aug has a pretty interesting spray pattern. It's a lot like the M4's spray, but it's more biased towards the left side.
SG/Krieg probably has the best spray pattern of all the automatic rifles. It's a 7 with the last 15 rounds being towards the mid of the top of the 7. Very easy to spray with.
Just because a few people PM'd me, here's my autoexec config for CSGO, that I've compiled over months of scrimming and pugging in ESEA GO and comparing with other people. There isn't too much personal preference in here, mostly model/hud shifting, rates, etc. My pink crosshair, however, is in here. If you don't want shit in here, comment or delete it out. ^_^ On my esea profile, click download under config: http://play.esea.net/users/442077
Put it in your C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Counter-Strike Global Offensive\csgo\cfg directory and then name it autoexec.exe and run it in console when your game starts. Not sure if putting it at the end of your config works yet, hasn't in the earlier beta stages and I'm just used to doing it manually now.

Really ? Source spray pattern isn't consistent ? I played source for 2 years straight up and no where in at the point of the game I couldn't control my spray shot be it an ak or a m4 .
