Although many players prefer a controller for The Elder Scrolls , the keyboard and mouse combination is more intuitive. As a game with a variety of spells to switch between, the keyboard and mouse are incompara
Plainly stated, the M249 isn’t the best LMG in the game. Compared to the Negev, it really doesn’t hold up despite its monstrous stopping power. It also has a smaller magazine size, which really doesn’t help its case any. The last, and likely most damaging consideration is its incredibly high price tag, generally making it an unwise buy unless the player truly has funds to sp
You do get a generous pool of ammunition per reload, which is a merit on its own. But poor accuracy and unremarkable damage generally make this one a pass when there are far more reliable sidearms available for purch
The popularity and stardom that Counter-Strike Global Offensive has garnered over the last decade is nothing short of amazing. A staple in the FPS genre, every gamer has come across or at least heard of the game at some point. Although the game is almost a decade old, new players are still joining the game on a regular basis. Embarking a journey in CS:GO is not always easy, and there are a lot of nuances that need to be understood in order to gain success in the g
Flashbang is one of the utilities available in the game. When used, it instantly blinds anyone that is looking at it directly for a brief moment. Although it’s a very good tool and can be super effective when used properly, many players blind their teammates, including themselves, instead of blinding the opposing play
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
While a gamepad provides an ideal level of comfort, a keyboard and mouse offer superior performance. Particular genres are better suited for a mouse because of its DPI (dots per square inch). This gives better precision for first-person shooters or any other game that has to target in an isometric v
Practice makes perfect, as the sniper’s adage of “one shot, one kill” rings entirely true here. However, it fails to mention that missing that “one shot” can have catastrophic results. This bolt action rifle has a significant cooldown between shots that needs to be taken into account, but a skilled player can practically run-and-gun with this monster, proving unstoppable even in close-quart
It’ll work if you can’t afford something else, by sheer virtue of being a gun. However, you’re likely better off banking your money and roughing it for one round so you can pick up something a bit more practical during the next
This expensive skin came out in 2014 alongside Operation Breakout. The cosmetic gives this already rare knife a bright paint job, coating it in vivid purples, reds, and yellows. As the name implies, these colors are faded into each other to give a spectrum of more subtle shades and h
Counter Strike ’s most famous assault rifle received this skin in 2013, alongside the release of Operation Bravo. The weapon’s metallic body changes when the skin is equipped. It features a green Aztec serpent, along with bright blue clouds behind
Until it’s a rush round or an economy round, it’s never a bright idea to carry the spike while leading the team from the front. If you die, the bomb basically is now in CT’s territory, and reclaiming it can be a has
The iconic and definitive FPS Counter-Strike has definitely made waves over the years. Since its first outing two decades ago, Counter-Strike has been the go-to shooter series for PC players. Attaining over 1 million concurrent players earlier this year , this beast of a game is stronger than e
Due to this simple mechanic, Surf Maps often feature various ramps of increasing difficulty. And if players get bored enough, some Surf Maps feature combat elements that try to incorporate the map’s rather chaotic environm
Marble Fade is one of the most colorful skins in the game, and it looks stunning when it comes on the Karambit knife. This unique skin dropped in 2015 along with the Full Spectrum update. It coats the blade in an assortment of colors — red, yellow, and blue — that form a smoky patt
On September 30th, this cosmetic was sold for a whopping $1226.74. But this price is an outlier on Steam, as the weapon skin typically sells for $350. Yet the high price isn’t that uncommon when looking at third party sell
At a glance, Superhot seems like a game tailor-made for controllers. Aiming in first person is challenging, CS2 visual improvements and Superhot makes things slightly easier by slowing down time to a crawl as players try and nail the best shot possi
As the name implies, this weapon skin features the iconic Greek gorgon . Players with this skin will find Medusa’s green face on one side of the AWP’s stock — with the back of her head present on the other side. The purple snakes that make up her hair are sent out in tendrils along the weapon’s b
