At its core, Surfing is a modification of an FPS’s slide mechanic. Instead of the game’s physics stopping a player from sliding after a certain distance, Surfing disables these physics to some degree. As a result, Surfing will have players strafe on surfaces at a much faster r
The first two points quite literally seem to indicate that more money spent in game on cosmetics translating to being more trustworthy. Perhaps there is some truth to this, as spending real money in a game may dissuade a user from cheating and risking the lose of an account, but it still seems odd without confirmation of that i
When it comes to first-person shooting game series, there are few as renowned as Call of Duty . Call of Duty: Warzone is one of the latest installments to join the battle royale club. The game is a massive success with play
The above points come as little surprise. The longer one has spent on a single game account, the less likely they are to be outright cheating due to the cheat detection systems and the issuing of VAC-bans for those who are caught. If one has several hundred or thousands of hours in a game, it is fair to say they enjoy playing and likely are not cheating relative to an account with only a few hours of playt
What started as a Counter-Strike 1.6 community map called de_cpl_strike created by Michael “BubkeZ” Hull, would eventually become the de_mirage known today when it was altered in 2004. Valve would later remake the map for the launch of Counter-Strike 2 updates: Global Offensive . This version has been featured in every CS:GO Major Championships to date and has consistently been in the top 5 most played maps in both casual and professional play since 2
No gun can shut down entire sections of a map or take over a game quite like the AWP can. The only gun that is able to one shot to the body, the AWP is expensive, but it is worth every dollar spent. Every team will have an AWPer whenever possible on both sides. The amount of map control the AWP provides is uncontestable. Enemy players need to know where the opposing AWPer is at all times and strategies need to be made to combat them. Peeking into an AWP without help is a near-death sente
What has made the map a mainstay for so long is its balance, unique aesthetic, and low learning curve. The map has also gained a bit of a reputation for being a bit of an upset map in the professional scene. This and its age have led to community questioning when the map will inevitably get its revision, but until that day, Mirage surely has a lot more to g
2020 is a year of the rat. It’s been an inauspicious year due to the coronavirus outbreak, but at least some good things came from the gaming world. The release of new first-person shooter (FPS) games like DOOM Eternal, Half-Life: Alyx, and Call of Duty: Warzone foreshadows a year with great releases to c
The Ts have it and the CTs want it — the AK-47 is undoubtedly the best weapon in Counter-Strike: Global Offensive . A well-placed headshot will drop opponents, even if they are wearing armor. It has a large mag and a good rate of fire, which helps the Ts push into the CTs without getting destroyed. A skilled AK user can even duel a player using an AWP due to peeker advantage if they are quick enough. The AK is the one advantage the Ts get over the CTs and it is colos
These too appear to be straightforward contributors to Trust Factor. Those who are often accused of cheating and no acquitted of the complaint may be best lumped together with similar players. Those who are associated with other accounts that have received bans may also be treated the s
The high rate of fire coupled with the overall damage dealt by each bullet makes the Tec-9 a force to be reckoned with. However, keep in mind that moving around while shooting with the Tec-9 hampers its accuracy quite a bit, making it important to remain stationary and pick one’s shots wisely in close-quarters com
So there you have it, the games we would like to most like to see sequels* made for. I guess it’s true that you don’t know what you have until it’s gone. In a perfect world, a developer would see this and say “Hey! That’s a great idea.” But sadly this isn’t a perfect world, so all we can do for now is dream and reminisce. Although all hope isn’t lost, as this year’s E3 is next month, and there is always a possibil
Team Fortress 2: It’s not quite surprising to find out that Team Fortress 2 , another Valve game, would have its fair share of Surf Mods. Being a 2007 game, Surf Maps in TF2 are arguably smoother and more organized. Compared to the more carefree 1.6 Surf Maps, TF2 ’s had a variety of extra sub-types, such as Death-Match Surfs, pure Skill Surfs, and obstacle-enhanced Trick Su
At its core, Surfing relies on the modification of the game’s strafe mechanic to work. As fans remember, players can strafe in the game or walk left and right by pressing the A and D keys, respectively. In the core gameplay, pressing W and either the A and D keys would have the player walk diagonally. This movement, alongside strafing itself, is a core Surfing mechanic. Here’s how to strafe prope
