  • Blizzcon 2019

    Diablo 4 cinematic trailer, the CG is absolutely stunning. Diablo 3's CG cinematic blew my pants off with their graphicalness but this new one was something else. The way the membrane became her cape at the end with the camera slowly panning was jaw dropping - well done to all involved with that. I was also super happy by how much more hostile and oppressive the world looks in the gameplay trailer too - there was actual blood! This certainly looks a step up from D3 in every way. To complete the feeling, the only thing I think I could comment on is that Matt Uelmen needs to be invited back to do the music. I always felt that Blizzard kinda misunderstand the importance of his music for the world of Diablo.

    I don't need to be inspired by an imaginary character to do bad stuff. I'm quite capable of doing bad things by my own white male self.

    They're showing stuff but at the same time not showing stuff. I like what I see, but I'm still on the fence until I see some actual gameplay and not fast in my face clips. I've beaten everyone around the head on here for years about how much I adore SS2 and I've waiting a long time for #3 - so if this sucks I'm leaving to live in a forest.

    Git gud. It's a 1 shot headshot, unlike the m4. So just point it at the head of the guy you want to murder and tap. Or if that is a bit much for the moment and you want to spray, point it at the head again and pull down on your mouse. Another good tip is to shoot at the wall and look at the spray pattern then counter it with your mouse so you get most of your shots in the centre of your crosshair.

I dunno, enjoy it more? We're trying competitive because casual has way too many people, but it's putting us up against people that can 360 noscope you as soon as you go round a corner. I know the maps and chokepoints well, but I just don't understand how you can beat these people? Also the matchmaking is taking like 6 mins each time... And people complain about a 20 sec wait on PUBG lol.

    Any good vids online to learn how to git gud? For example I'm not really sure how I should be spraying either. The gunplay feels really weird in this game coming from PUBG which has really awesome feeling, controllable, realistic weapon recoil.

    Watch lots of pro games and how they position themselves. CS GO on comp mode for an in experienced player is gonna be like running into a brick wall, peeps been playing this game for a long ass time. If you wanna legit get good then I'd suggest playing a shit tonne and watching a lot of youtube tutorials on smokes, aim, spray and map knowledge. A good stop would be https://www.youtube.com/user/TheWarOwl he has a lot of CS GO content and video tutorials/tips on how to play better. But all in all, it just comes down to playing a looooooooooooooooooooooooot.

    I'm also gonna take this moment to flap my dick around a bit. These vids were from when I took the game seriously a few years ago and got reasonably good again. I dunno if Cobble is still played like this, but end of B Plat dominance was everything in that map. Smokes, awp, and some reactionary skills and you're good.

    For T's: Never push through a smoke one by one. Go as a group and molly, frag, flash the stairs and push out together or this will happen: For CT's: Nade the shit out of plat and shoot them bad guys.

    Those rules can generally be applied to most bombsite push/hold. A single well placed smoke can prevent most rushes unless T's are yolo desperate to make a play.
