Over time Overpass would receive numerous adjustments and tweaks to balance out the map and most would be well-received. Today the map is praised for its balance and unpredictable nature but remembered infamously for the “Fnatic/Olof boost” of 2013. During the fourth CS:GO Major at DreamHack Winter 2013 the professional player Olof “olofmeister” Gustafsson from the Swedish team Fnatic utilized an exploit known as “pixel walking” to gain an advantageous position against the opposing t
“The Half-Life community is one of the most creative and talented gaming communities out there,” the founder of LambdaGeneration – who simply goes by “Alex” online – tells me. “Some of the stuff we cover just blows my mind. Whether it’s a group of people spending almost two decades recreating the original game in a modern engine or someone spending three months on a fan film, I am always taken aback by the sheer dedication people have for the series.”
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
The AK-47 is an icon both inside and outside of the game, and is most definitely a fan favorite. It sells at a decent price point, is capable of one-shotting armored opponents with a solid strike to the head, and is incredibly accurate for those that have mastered tap-fir
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.
In this way, the league would simply become another chance to earn income for teams, rather than being the only place where teams have a chance at winning a major. Valve would also have to select a certain number of tournaments that each league team would have to participate in, using the results of each tournament to determine how many points each league team is assigned at the end of the season and thus, impacting their overall position within the league at the
This initial habit of breaking open these crates is incredibly useful, as doing so will often ensure that a team can wipe out any enemies in the surrounding area, which will award them money and give them a good start to the round. But it’s important for players to remember the differences between the red supply crates that they see, as there are two kinds. The smaller ones can be opened without weapons (with fists), and the other, larger ones must be opened with melee weapons or guns, so it’s important to look for the smaller crates first. Doing this will give a team a quick advantage and will definitely send them on their way to winning the ma
“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.”
The so-called “complex” story of Stranglehold: some bad guys have your daughter and your ex girlfriend, and you have to keep pulling the trigger at said bad guys until you find them. To give an even shorter description, it’s like Max Payne with 40% less story and 50% more act
This submachine gun is one of the cheapest guns the terrorist team can buy. However, its price tag comes with baggage, like having really bad recoil, weak armor penetration, and only being remotely handy in close quarters. The MAC-10’s accuracy is abysmal by most accou
As Danger Zone games take place on large maps with a lot of open space , it makes sense that an effective weapon in this environment would be a Scout. These weapons can be bought later on in the game for $3750, and as they are a one-hit kill to the head and a two-shot kill to the body, it is highly advisable for players to purchase
Part of what makes Cs Skin Investment:GO so great is the fact that smaller teams have a chance to show what they can do on the biggest stages. In most sports, the teams with the most money tend to dominate every year, with smaller teams having a fluke here and there. In CS:GO. this does happen to an extent, but there has been a long list of instances where a team that qualified for a major or other big event stunned the entire field despite not having the same level of backing. For smaller teams, even making it past the qualifying stages for a big event changes their future and it already happened at the Berlin Ma
The game originally came out in 1999 as a Half-Life mod and in 2000 as separate retail. That’s over a decade! The potential of what a new release would look like seems amazing in terms of graphics, mechanics and the all-around evolution of video games since then. I know I’m not alone, there’s even a Facebook group devoted to the ca
