That 5-kill killstreak is an UAV.

Assuming that it's not going to get shot down immediately (it will), UAV costs 450 points, while it gives you only 10 points for each ally kill under it.

>>323449763
The 7 recoil pattern varies each time you shoot a gun in CSGO. Each gun has it's own 7 style recoil pattern, but each pattern has randomness attributed to it. You could possible miss when you were aiming correctly, or hit when you were not aiming right.

But hey that's TOTALLY not RNG, right?

>>323449943

>>323450016
Shoot at a fucking wall at medium range and you have your source. It will go in a 7 direction but the bullets placement and spread is a fucking dice roll, which means even if you're following the recoil pattern correctly you can still miss. The way around this is tapping or bursting but the recoil/spread reset takes so incredibly long that it can be a horrible idea.

That's not what they're saying.

Recoil is exactly the same every single time you fire a specific weapon.

However, you are correct about the general accuracy and bullet placement of guns being affected by a random number generator.

http://twowordbird.com/articles/csgo-recoil-mechanics/

Scroll down and see the animation of an AK47 bullet pattern. The recoil is the same every time, but the bullets themselves veer off target based on a degree that's generated by the game and is RANDOM.

So while you are incorrect on a semantic level, you are correct in your overall argument of CS guns being RNG based

>>323451619
Good thing someone came along to clear up all this bullshittery

Why did Valve go back to RNG? People hated it in Source and screamed for a return to 1.X's patterms.

if it just comes down to RNG why do pro's hit their shots so consistently? And why do top teams stay top?

If it was truly a random game, the top teams would fluctuate dramatically.

>>323449642
>WAAAH I CANT SNIPE WITH A PISTOL THIS GAME IS UNFAIR
The inaccuracy system exists to give each gun an effective range, otherwise every gun would be an effective sniper rifle. You're supposed to use teamwork, positioning and grenades to use your equipment in the most effective and predictable way possible. Yes, an AK47 has about 50% accuracy firing from pit to goose, and that's exactly why you don't try to pick with an AK47 from pit to goose when the enemy has an awp.

dirty bomb is better imo, and it's free. it just depends on your preferences

>>323452274

>>323451821
CSGO has tighter first shot accuracy and overall sprays than 1.6. The only more accurate part of 1.6 was on early subsequent shots.

>>323452481
BFBC2 was the first game I played where every gun was 100% accurate, and I thought it was fucking stupid. You could easily challenge snipers at any range with an SMG or Pistol. I remember in BF2 and 1942 when all the guns were horribly inaccurate, and it made for fun, interesting tactical play. You actually had to think about your positioning and how to approach each situation instead of just "click on the man as fast as you can". When did people start expecting every gun in every to be a sniper rifle? When did people start expecting every game to be instagib quake?

>>323453453
it's just quakefags. they have a hateboner against cs because it's successful.

>>323453447
its the opposite. CSGO has much more variance on first shot and looser spray patterns.

his argument is that RNG in general is a bad mechanic that takes skill out of games. Which it is. You can't argue that have randomness decide the outcome of a match makes a competitive game.

>>323453639
CSGO was dead and disliked by a lot of CS pros. Only when valve introduced skins and crates did it pick up again.

1.6 was superior in every way and I despise GO

>>323453453

>>323454492
>his argument is that RNG in general is a bad mechanic that takes skill out of games.

The RNG is so incredibly slight that it only takes affect at beyond the guns effective range. If you shoot correctly at correct distances, you will make your shots. You are vastly overestimating the effect of CS's bullet spread. Besides, almost ALL military shooters have bullet variance for a good reason. See what previous anon said about BC2, it was a mess.

>CSGO was dead and disliked by a lot of CS pros. Only when valve introduced skins and crates did it pick up again.

What a surprise, you're an uninformed faggot. The game picked up when Valve started listening to pro players and made some heavy changes to the way certain guns handled and rebalanced the game.

You play the odds in GO, like gambling, someone in a previous thread stated that the RNG at certain ranges is there to encourage players to think about whether to engage at longer ranges or not, fair enough however standing still, no matter what gun you are using you should hit exactly where you aim, if the damage is different depending on the range that's fine but tossing a coin on whether you hit exactly where you aim isn't.

>>323454849
>incredibly slight

Imagine a scenario, if you will. You are shooting your AK at a CT with an M4. You're about to kill him, but you yourself are one bullet away from dying.

You compensate for recoil, but because of the RNG bullet spread you miss your final shot.

He hits you, you die, losing the round. You are now behind economically which makes the match snowball in the CT's favor.

It make not happen every match, but having it happen at all is frustrating.

>>323455119
Source?
I don't know about csgo post patch december, but it was well known and thoroughly discussed that first bullet inaccuracy in GO was worse than 1.6.

>>323448796
The original MW had a much higher skill ceiling than CS. Most FPS games do.

>>323455231
This scenario won't happen when you fire at proper ranges

besides you should be tapping with the AK.

>>323455463
what happened to this board

like my god, you people are clowns

>>323455231
In a scenario where both players are shooting beyond their gun's effective range, the outcome could go either way. The idea is that you avoid such situations by not playing like a brainless retard. In a best of 30 match the outcome of these kind of situations will balance out anyway

>>323455368
It's factually not. How the first shot accuracy is caculated is different, which ends up with a wider spread on the first shot but a much higher concentration towards the middle.

the problem with first shot accuracy vs 1.6 for tapping/bursting is most people don't let it fully reset which creates a much larger inaccuracy than would occur in 1.6. also until recently the models were fucked, and still today some models (IDF) have weird clothing.
