Basic Need to Knows for Match Play:For NEWBIES

[quebec]

First and foremost, this thread is not to justify that i am a pro or a superior CS player. I momentarily thought of producing this thread to give new CS match players some basic need to know information. Hopefully this thread will be able to enlighten new players regarding match play and thus help improve and build up a more competitive community. Feel free to comment or ask if needed. Criticism are mostly gladly welcome. =)

Basic Match Need to Knows:

• Fully utilize your money. For 1st rounds, it is advisable to spend your money on armor or equipment such as nades, flashbangs, smoke, kits etc. There is no use in saving your $800. The same goes for other rounds with sufficient money. Think: One flashbang can win you a round; one round can win you the game.
  
• There are things such as ECONOMY rounds. These rounds are when your team does not have sufficient money to fully buy good weapons, armor, equipment etc. For example: your team loses the 1st round. You are left with only $2000 in the 2nd round. Alot of inexperienced teams buy mp5 navy's without armor. Think: would your mp5 navy's WITHOUT armor work against players with rifles such as the AK or m4a1 (and armor equipped as well)? wouldnt it be better to not buy anything and save your money for the next round when your team stands a better chance in winning with better weapons? THINK and PLAN WISELY. unless your mp5 navy can kill rifles and snipers at long range distance and with very accurate aim,i suggest you plan ECO rounds when necessary.
  
• Your armor is primarily part of your health. Alot of new players do not know the significance of armor. A direct hit from a nade (HE) WITHOUT armor instantly reduces your HP to red, whereby you can at the most deal half life damage to a player WITH armor. Armor also reduces damage taken from weapons. Think: Armor or no armor?
  
• Counter Strike is a STEREO oriented game, so when you hear some noise from the left, there IS someone on your left. I've seen a lot of new players claiming that they are listening to the opponents footsteps during gameplay. Theres nothing wrong with that. The only thing thats wrong is that they have their headsets the other way round. Think: Please... Listen with your ears AND brain!!! Please...
  
• There are obviously alot ways to win a round. For terrorist, you can win by either killing or CT's or successfully detonating the C4. For CT's you can win by killing or terrorists or successfully defusing a planted C4. Think: The round is in YOUR hands.
  
• Money management is a very important factor in this game. There will be some rounds when some of your teammates have less money than you do. Think: there is such a thing as BUYING GUNS FOR YOUR TEAMMATES only if you have sufficient money to supply both them and yourself. For more on money management, please refer to Gizmo@nFx - Arctic's thread at www.gizmoarena.proboards67.com/index.cgi?board=csdiscussion&action=display&thread=73
  

These are just a few need to knows for basic match play. As i said in one of my earlier posts, you cant improve through reading how to play, you can only improve if you play. This thread is just giving new players some BASIC knowledge on match play. Feel free to ask any questions if necessary. Questions on tactics and game strategies WILL NOT be answered. Your gameplay is up to you and your team, NOT me.

Above all, enjoy your game!!!

quebec, here is my advice for players who are new to CS match :

1) First round, always buy the cheapest kevlar with the miserable $800. Do not spend it on useless item such as flash bang, grenade or defuse kit. Let your teammate buy them instead. Second thing is that, you shoud always take advantage that your teammate is there to take the bullet for you. Remember to always use them as your shield, teammates are meant to be sacrificial lamb in the road to a greater glory.

2) Always tell yourself " There would always be a free gun lying around to be pick up " whenever u're in a eco round situation. The chances of this scenario to happen is 10% out of every round.

3) Never trust your teammate, they are by far the worst enemy you can have in a CS match compared to your opponent.

4) In a CS match, there is no such thing as a safe spot. Do not try to camp also as this will invite insults from your opponent and the spectators calling you a gutless bastard, no balls, thingysucker and whatever they find it suitable to describe you.

5) Team which are defeated in a CS match are entitled to pregnant dog and while like a dumbf**k as this has seem to become a tradition for this game. Please always use this few phrase when pregnant doging off :
a) Aiya, cb kiasu use EQ more expensive than mine, think urself super pro meh.
b) CB our computer got problem nia, always lag.
c) Win ma win lor, go win WCG la
d) you people lucky only, dare play 1 more time la

6) The team commander is a person for you to put the blame on whenever your team loses. Players are never wrong.

7) Never wait for backup or call for backup when being rushed by your opponent. Fight head on with them. If you can kill them all, people will call you GOD and if you die, blame it on your teammate on why backup is so slow.

8) Whenever miss throw a flashbang to a teammate or in a rush. NEVER i mean NEVER admit it urs. Just stay where you are in a blind til all ur teammates r terminated, run/fall back to save your golden gun stayin alive with just only a couple of bullets needed the next round.

9) For f**k's sake, you are feeling god d**n pro now, you could ace the enemies. command all ur teammates to stay or to rush at one point but you are staying bhind them for a decoy or move slowly the other way round. (refer to point 1). It might not happens frequently but nonetheless you should owes try eventhough all ur teammates might die b4 you. Thinks you could ace the enemies or should u die in this case, do recklessly put the whole blame and the whole world on your teammates' shoulder for being weak to hav die so fast and b4 you (blame is the greatest skill above all, nuff said)

10) Leave the game with a little harsh words b4 tat if you are not happy throughout the game. All pro does tat, its to show how pro you are. nevertheless You are one, remember that.

Here a little tips about it:
A) f**k, i dun play wif pubs. (PUB/PUBS as in public players of mixes team or public server eg. timeless, joker, etc)

B) Don waste my time to play against such noobs. (Choices are leave the game or ask teammate with rcon password kick the enemies and find new.)

C) If you ever get invited to a game or being ask, owes pretend that you are decent.


This guide will leads you to one hell of a pro day. Enjoy
