Thanks so much for your help guys, I actually just started playing competitive directly, didn't know what I was doing, went 10-9 in matches so far and got ranked silver elite master.
Usually I just scream at myself, losing duels I shouldn't lose because I just shoot circles around their heads, so there is a lot of room for improvement :D

But I really like the competitive mode, its not like the "I run around and do stupid stuff" I know from CS 1.6 from 10 years ago (pretty much the last time I played).

Got an extra question: Whats the deal with M4 with silencer and without silencer? Whats the difference except the sound?

The silenced one only has 20 round clips and less overall ammo, but the bullets also aren't tracers (you don't see the yellow traces when you get shot at). So the silenced one is kind of better is you're very careful with your ammo, the a4 is better if you like to spray/pre spray/wallbang and stuff, but you get spotted easier.
Also fudge randomly having 200 ping on matchmaking servers, it did it again last night.. got double ace anyway tho, was pretty funny :D

Damn someone posted this on reddit, skip to 1mn50 or so for the ingame test.. This is so retarded, both because of the stupid selling argument and the fact that it's an actual cheat..

it only accounts for vertical recoil (AK's vertical recoil is easy as fuck). I wouldn't be worried about this mouse since people who use it will suck anyways if they think that auto adjusting their recoil will help them

Most higher level players don't need a "special" mouse to control recoil better than that..

When you basically play on a headshot only servers, things like that tend to happen. Not to take anything away from Scream who is a great player.

Yeah that's the thing, the mouse probably sucks/is borderline useless unless yo'ure very very bad, but they still use a kind of cheat as a selling argument, I find that kinda disgusting. But heh, that's the world we live in I guess, if it can help selling their shit..

You might be able to program the mouse to load custom anti-recoil configs for each weapon if I read reddit comments right, but I don't think there would be a released API to allow that (then everyone and their mothers would be using this mouse and would be banned from LANs)

Unbelievable, really. What the hell were A4Tech thinking? I sincerely hope competitive shooters will patch to disallow these mouses to be used. Should also result in a nice big backlash towards the company.

Has anyone else experienced a lot of frustration with dust2 in the se/Nova? I don't even bother Queing it anymore. 50% of the time as t you get teams that either: a) rush long a and then die to people defending site (and not buying smokes to go there) or b) rush b and not flash/smoke. It seems that half the people don't want to do splits on that map. Also if other team has good ops and team can't buy smokrs/flashes, it's not fun.

(btw I'm not that great, but I find that very frustrating.)

About the mouse, i read somewhere (YT i think) that you only have like 100 clicks for that recoil button, then you ahve tro pay 20$ for unlimited. One of the guys who commentated on it said so.
