CS:GO for noobs
Hey everyone, I bought a bundle that includes all the CS games and some extra stuff. I’ve started playing CS:GO because that’s what people talk about most. But when I open the game, I’m confused. I did some practice, but I still can’t get the game running right. I’m wondering if you can break it down simply—what makes this game work? What are the different ways to play? When someone says “casual” they mean something different than when they talk about competitive play. You don’t need to know all the shortcuts or special keys, just the basics of how to play and what the different modes are. Thanks for your help!
Casual means no strict positions, but you can improve your skills. In casual play you can join at any time and quit whenever you like, while competitive matches are 5v5 (maybe?). Your rank in competitive determines the opponents you face, helping keep things balanced. At the start of each round you can purchase weapons, armor, explosives, etc. You gain income by defeating enemies, setting off bombs, and winning rounds. You can also collect weapons left behind by picking them up if you’re not armed or by pressing E on a nearby gun. You’ll typically have one main weapon, a pistol, around four grenades (two flashbangs and one of each other type), plus a knife at all times.
Welcome to the game m8. On most servers, when a teammate achieves a kill, rewards are given. Choosing which weapons to purchase often depends more on personal preference. If you wish to explore various options, Deathmatch could be your ideal choice. Weapons are available at no cost and respawns happen quickly. Casual players enjoy the game simply for enjoyment, which is what most do. Skip the harsh remarks you encounter when making mistakes—most players you interact with are just as flawed or worse. Deathmatch (my top pick) focuses on maximizing points from kills and assists. The standard mode in CS:GO typically involves terrorists planting a bomb while counter-terrorists try to stop it. Another entertaining option is surfing. To learn more about this, search for "LeafyIsHere" on YouTube. Surf servers are found within community server browsers and use the map prefix "surf_". Good luck! P.S. This might be the only respectful discussion you ever have with a CS:GO player. And remember, racism isn’t uncommon—try to overlook it.
Check out a few videos... it’s better to start with a serious or competitive match first, since the chat might be a bit rough. You can practice aiming before diving into casual play. Once you’re comfortable, you’ll pick up strategies faster.
Yeah, I silenced a bunch of players. Those kids are getting really aggressive when you hit them or they get to you. I didn’t catch them saying goodbye after the game over. I was just playing casual with the bomb feature. Next time I’ll try deathmatch and start practicing weapons. As for those trading cards on Steam and the crazy weapon prices—do you think the expensive guns are worth it, or are they just fake weapons?
Essentially you're purchasing a modified version of the standard weapon. Deathmatch appears first in the row or game modes that appear when you click the find match button—it's positioned above the active duty button. Trading cards are obtained by completing actions in the game or received randomly. Their value ranges from 1c to $100. Personally, I don't think reskins are worth buying outright, but if you have some cash and a decent case, you might be able to earn a profit.
