Practice makes perfect, as the sniper’s adage of “one shot, one kill” rings entirely true here. However, it fails to mention that missing that “one shot” can have catastrophic results. This bolt action rifle has a significant cooldown between shots that needs to be taken into account, but a skilled player can practically run-and-gun with this monster, proving unstoppable even in close-quart
“Moving to Twitter and YouTube was a must to survive. I love old-school websites and forums, but it’s hard to keep them alive in the modern internet era. We actually used Twitter early on to promote articles on the original site but, over time, we transitioned to posting directly in smaller bites, which worked well for us.”
LambdaGeneration has now come full circle, CS2 performance optimization returning to its website roots but with all the modern bells and whistles. “The concept for the new community platform is the same as the original website – it’s a place to share and discover Half-Life and Valve community content,” Alex says. “I’m not a writer or journalist, the original website ran on WordPress. But I was always open to other mediums, so – in my head – turning it into a social platform felt like a natural progression.
The weapon was sold for exactly $1300 on November 3rd. This isn’t the only time the weapon sold for over $1000, but the high price is the exception rather than the rule. In most cases, the weapon averages around $300 per purchase, which is still a
Originally a Counter-Strike 1.1 map created by Chris “Narby” Auty and introduced on June 27th, 1999, Vertigo was a surprising addition to the map pool when it was added. On March 28th, 2019, the map was added to the active map pool in place of fan-favorite Cache as the map underwent renovations. This was surprising, but not all that unexpected. Up to this point, the player base was expecting a lot of the older maps to receive facelifts and come back better than ever, but few expected Cache’s replacement to be Vert
As it stands the map is heavily CT-sided, especially at the casual level. While there are many options for the T-side to combat a lot of the strengths the CT-side has, many players have cited this to be difficult to execute outside of coordinated and disciplined teams. Meta changes since the map’s introduction have done little to change this leading to most matches feeling boring and predictable as to the outcome of the g
Players who want to train their Surfing techniques might want to try joining an offline surf map instead. However, players may need to do some manual adjustments to the game’s physics settings in order to meet optimal surfing quality. In order to access offline maps, players need to do the follow
It wouldn’t be until November 18, 2022, that the map would be added to the official Valve active map pool, replacing the iconic Dust II. Immediately the player base voiced its confusion and apprehension as while the map received initial positive feedback it went through many changes and issues were highlighted throughout this time. As it is now Anubis has a long way to go before it is fully mastered and players can truly form an opinion on the potential of the
“Contrary to what people may think, LambdaGeneration actually grew during Valve’s silence,” Alex explains. “Many of the news-oriented sites that once overshadowed us started to struggle – many just gave up. The community, however, did not.”
Counter Strike knife skins are worth a lot of money. That’s why a Steam user bought this skin for $1774.47 back in May. Yet this price pales in comparison with what’s found on third party websites, with some claiming that the weapon goes for over $15
Currently, there is no way to financially support the self-funded fan-site, but there are plans to potentially open a Patreon in the future. LambdaGeneration seems like the inevitable next step in this saga, a hot-spot for Half-Life devotees to enjoy.
Since the launch of the first Surf Maps, a fringe community of casual players became quite avid fans of the concept. The idea of Surf Maps moved on from Counter-Strike 1.6 and even made its way to other games. Some games with Surf Mods incl
It’s an all-rounder, landing accurate and deadly long-range shots while maintaining manageable recoil for closer encounters. CT players will notoriously pick these up off of fallen enemies in over their team-specific analog, the M
While the future for the game is bright, Counter-Strike is a franchise that loves to pay homage and respect to its roots. As such it is one of the few, if not the only game that has remained mechanically identical since its inception. This familiarity extends to the maps that for some have surpassed 20 years of active competitive play. So, the best way to pay respect to these maps is to rank the best Counter-Strike: Global Offensive has to of
This expensive skin came out in 2014 alongside Operation Breakout. The cosmetic gives this already rare knife a bright paint job, coating it in vivid purples, reds, and yellows. As the name implies, these colors are faded into each other to give a spectrum of more subtle shades and h
