Just started playing a couple of weeks ago and I have a hard time adjusting to csgo. Lots of little spots in the maps that are new and I'm not used to them yet and also, my aim feels so off sometimes. Need more pratice for sure. There's a couple of things that is bugging me a lot in csgo, like the matchmaking ping setting where if I put 60, it takes a while to find a game (if it succeed to find one) and if I put more, sometimes games are just unplayable because of the lag. Playing an FPS with 70+ ping isn't great at all, especially in a competitive format where other players sometimes have a ping of like 20. Another thing that happen to me recently was getting matched with 4 members of a certain team, they just played loud music all game long while never speaking for strats or calls. We were winning quite easily and they decided to kick me at the last f****** round.... I was so pissed and I wasn't even the worst player on our team. At least I didn't happen more than 1 time yet. Lastly, I was wondering, is there any people here who find that it's a lot easier to aim/hit while using a really low resolution? I've been testing some res and I found out that it was easier to aim while using a 4:3 1280x960 stretched. Just curious which res you guys are using. I've tried playing at 1920x1080 but I had such a hard time even tho the game looked a lot better. I have my match ping set to 80, sometimes 70, and I'm occasionally/almost always playing with a friend from the west coast. So depending on the flip of the coin, one of us is going to be getting 70+ ping. It's not too bad until it gets to around 80-90 but meh, we have to live with it. If I solo queue, I don't remember it taking too long to find games with a lower ping setting, I'd still get games with 30-50 ping at about the same time as queuing with my friend. Minor stuff to help reduce ping, don't play on wireless, and maybe pause/turn off torrents/streams if your net can't handle it. Also make sure there aren't others on your network doing same thing. As for being matched with a 4 stack, there's nothing you can do, except mute them especially if they're not going to call anything. Maybe report for abusive voice chat, and suck up the kick. To avoid it, just play with at least 1 friend so you can't get kicked. Resolution is all personal preference. Heads are larger at low res with modern monitors, while you see slightly more with higher resolutions like 1920x1080. While you see more, it might not necessarily mean it'll help you because the amount you have to move to aim towards a guy at the edges of your screen takes awhile. By the time you do, the guy who's got the jump on you, will have likely already killed you. This is ofc dependant on skill level you're playing at. This video basically sums it all up for resolutions. | ||

Another thing I would like to know, anyone know a good place, either a website or some vids, that could help me learn all the spots names in the maps? Been a while since I've played cs competitively and I don't remember 3/4 of them. I really need to work on that for faster calling. Would be appreciated, thanks! | ||

It took me a while to figure out how to mute people, the experience was a lot better after muting the jerks. Guess now I'll have to join the TL CSGO group to find new people to play with because most of my friends who play with me aren't there often. I'm not ranked yet but I pretty sure I'll be ranked high silver or low gold hahaha.

Yeah, the mute option is a little unintuitive. That was like the one thing Call of Duty did good on compared to CS cause it was super easy to mute people in that game lmao. Covers most of the standard competitive maps minus train, but screw train. http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=157442340 | ||

I've never played CS before GO, so there's a lot to learn for me And sad to hear about the ping issues you got. I'm always having ping in the range of 5-10 of some reason | ||
