Counter Strike: Global Offensive

[Ecko7]

Excellent posts so far Stef.

So I rate the first thing we do is have a strat session. Here we will brainstorm a few tactics for CT and T and assign roles to individuals and practice a few rounds using these newly discussed strats. . We can also have a basic nade discussion in this strat session but I believe nading is so important that we should have an entire session just dedicated to nading.

Also if you want to improve your aim and reaction time, play a few rounds on this aim map a day to do so. http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfile.../?id=241148414

Any ideas on a time and day for our strat session?

I'd also reccomend this: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfile...60&searchtext= for getting to know guns and practicing tap firing, bursting and recoil control. I normally work one full 360 doing one bot tap, one burst and one full auto. Then reverse the direction and keep doing it until you've racked up about a 100 with each gun. It gets pretty tiring, but it definitely helps build confidence. So far I've done the Glock, P2000 (one day), UMP/P90 (next day), Galil/FAMAS (next day), AK47 and M4 (next day) and Scout/AWP (next day). I quite like the routine and it helps to stay fresh with the guns.

I think we can get through Dust, Nuke, Inferno and Mirage nades pretty quickly. We just discuss opening T nades for different strategies and all practice throwing them. Then defensive nades for CT. At the end we can do some practice breaching and getting our timing better with flashes and getting into the habit of calling flashes so we can turn our backs and keep rolling forward. We can turn on infinite nade ammo and the grenade trajectory tracker so it's nice and easy to make progress. If people can get started with researching a few nade ideas, that will help. The more options we have in terms of opening nades, breaching nades and retake nades the better.

Getting real improvement in terms of teamplay will require a walkthrough and discussion of each bomb site on each map. Talk about power spots and get everyone familiar with how to take them. Then once we all have a good idea of what we're doing on the bomb sites we should just practice doing takes and retakes of sites over and over again so we get used to adjusting positions on the fly to stay unpredictable and reacting to surprises. We also need to work on our opening set up and finding picks with a slow set up. Finally I think a bit of work on communication and rotation will help a lot in terms of fixing the timing of our tactics.

After one or two practices just to nail down some basics, everyone can pick a role and we can start playing a more structured game. I'm down for practice whenever, preferably the sooner the better. Lets get something going this weekend even if it isn't everyone together. As soon as we have more than say 5 guys online, lets take that opportunity do a prac instead of trying to arrange a 5v5. If we do one practice a week I would be really happy, two even better. I don't want to put pressure on people so lets make it a voluntary thing. If you'd rather play competitive or casual, go for it... people should want to practice, we can't force them.

Umm... our guild has an attention span of about 3 seconds...

You may want to get a strat session done with 2-3 of the players (managers / captain) and then have a practice session with the players and tell them what the strats are and how the games are going to go... then you can discuss who will play what and how to throw nades

Yeah you're right. It was never going to happen anyway. Over it already.

Its December dude, people are still learning the game. Everyone loves the post, I have read your posts a few times. Its a lot to take in and I have a little bit of CS experience.

Relax and lets see what can come about man... Sheesh.

I agree with Phatso, wait till the new year. Nothing happens now... no matter what clan one is in. I've read your posts and love the effort put in. Really do, it is amazing! At the same time, it is also intimidating. I haven't played CS in like 11 years. I love CS, but hell it is a hard learning curve and I know I won't stack up to play competitively. I am willing though to join prac and be "target practice" for the okes if needed.
