Counter Strike Source Tips and Tricks

Its Al The Alligator here, and i want to tell you about some tips that helped me get to where i am today! These small tips will help a new player or maybe also a regular player getting a lot more kills and well.... not suck.

1. The default config is not the best one out there. So i would say that you should start with setting up the game for the easiest gameplay. Start by going into Steam library and right click on Counter Strike: Souce.
Then go to properties, press "set launch options" and write -CONSOLE and press ok and close. Then start the game. A "console" should be there now. Dont close it. (if you ever close it, just do the same as before.)
In the console type: "rate 25000" "cl_updaterate 101" "cl_cmdrate 101" (Not at the same time) This might be best for a bit faster pc's but i believe nearly every pc today can use this config. Then go to options and press "advanced" at the bottom and enable "fast weapon switch" Then press ok and go to multiplayer. Go to advanced and disable "automatically switch to picked up weapons." Create your own game with no bots and go to options and then mouse. tweak your mouse setting to the best one for you. Remember: To fast = To inaccurate.

2. If you got a good headset (Steelseries, Roccat, Razer etc.) with 5.1 surround or other maybe 7.1 surround, remember to go into options -> audio and set to that option to get the best possible sounds. These sounds will help you in the game by giving you a feeling of where the sounds of enemy footsteps are coming from.
Remember! They can hear you to! so another small tip is: Walk slowly with shift or sit down with control if you believe someone is near. They will never see you come.

3. Take some time with bots and find "your" weapon. The weapon you think suits you best. Not everyone likes the AWP or the M4A1. For instance I myself just looove the MP5 And the M249 machinegun.
So find the weapon(s) that suits you best!

4. Use your map! Its a fantastic piece of equipment. It shows you where you're teammates are and where they die. You can easily see where the enemy is rushing if a teammate dies somewhere on the map. And if friendly fire is enable it will help you know enemy from friendly.

5. At long range you should either sit down when shooting or move side to side depending on the situation. The weapons have better accuracy when sitting down but it is risky because you are an easy target.

6.  As CT Remember to buy defuse kit! It can give you the win if you need to defuse and you got no time or maybe if you die and a teammate have to defuse but needs a kit, he can take yours! Its one of the most important equipment in the game!

If you have questions just ask down in the comments and i will answer as fast as possible!

Will be updated...
