Counter Strike is so frustrating...bullets do not go to cursor. CS:GO is a dice roll?

[Kolgax]

I've gotta say I am feeling a bit jypped at having purchased Counter Strike because of this one issue that keeps bugging the crap out of me. It's basically that when you fire your bullets do not go where your cursor is. I find that I have my cursor on people's heads all the time and it will miss, or I will pump like a whole clip into someone and it'll tell me I did 20 damage at my own death screen because all my bullets went somewhere else. This makes the game feel like a dice roll to me - fire and see if you hit the guy - maybe. I know I'm going to get flamed the heck out for this but I can't be silent about it. Yes I mad.

"game is a dice game" wtf does that even mean? kolgax, you're obviously not used to games that require skill. too familiar with no recoil and sprinting around. saying that counter strike takes no skill is naive.

The bullets fire in random directions around your cursor, so whether or not you hit your opponent is not based as much on skill as the random number generators. So it's kind of a dice game. I mean sure that's a bit of hyperbole and yeah I'm ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ on the forum, I admit it. I just wish the game would let me aim instead of deciding where my bullets go...

No. Wrong. It's not random. You just don't know how to control your spray.

Play with p90 untill you get used to the game

Thats really what makes csgo, csgo and not css or 1.6
Theres a lot of depth to it but it is more random than other cs games

Oh and if you wanna learn on your own i recommend to pull down after the first 3 shots and sway side to side after the 6th if your going full auto and observe the particals going past your reticule. Play with some friends who are a little more expirenced, more fun that way.

Basically you are not used how weapon recoil works in this game. The recoil itself is not random. The basics are laid out in these two videos and the Steam guide:

The only randomness is the hit registration in Valve's poor quality servers. Find a good 128 tick community server to practice on or practice off-line against bots on an aim map.

You ever heard of the thing called recoil ? Go practice more pal .

Yeah it's a lottery. And hackers are rife even weapons with a scope fire in random directions even though that's impossible in real life also there is about a one second delay of what you see and where the person is which is why you have people popping in and out of corners on the grand scale of things it's a great game but room for improvement pretty much ruined by hacking ♥♥♥♥ at least 20% of players

Then you should have checked what you CS was before you bought it >.>

Yeah probably. I just felt I had to say this is all, and I'm pretty much done. I probably will still play from time to time, but I felt like I had to have my opinion noted at least heh.

Because its a scape goat game.
It takes a long time to get good at cs. I've been playing since beta 7 (M4a1/Maverick Colt had a scope. A SCOPE) I i didn't get good at cs until around the end of 1.4's life span. Main i miss all those W.O.N i woluld play with people.

it's called go play COD because you don't have to skill for counterstrike nor do you qualify

Exactly my point, CS is frustrating because it's not really all that skill based. Might as well play a different game. (Although CoD would not be my first choice...I have yet to find a good shooter lately...)

You m...?

Ow, you are. .D

I thought I'd nip that one in the bud preemptively. :)

Calls game 'Not really skill based' -> Can't control spray patterns

Noob logic

CS:Go is CS:GO and up until recently i would not even except it as a CS for is poor hitboxes and overly bulky mmodels. (M4Crutch1-S as well)

The amount of necroposts in this topic is insane. What, 4 times this garbage 2013 topic was revived?

I suppose it does make sense considering the new hitbox system. Personally, I find it absolutely terrible. I used to be able to hit 5-round bursts from quite a distance with the M4A4, and now I'm lucky if two of those shots hit. I haven't played Comp in a while, but I imagine my rank will drop FAST.

this game isnt bad because its a dice roll. The game is amazing, and the spray patterm is the same, every time you fire the gun. Apart from a bit of innacuracy penalty when moving, it will mostly be the same with each and every magazine. If you don't like it, and want to play a mindless shoot em up, play CoD.

This thread was bumped from a month ago and even the OP hadn't replied for like a month.
