Considered one of the best shooter franchises of all time (and being banned in some countries historically), Counter-Strike ‘s latest iteration, Global Offensive , is still every bit as important and influential as it ever was. Its iconic lineup of weaponry has shifted a bit over the years, but in general, there have always been guns that are considered must-haves for competitive play, while others have been dismissed as a total waste of time (and https://www.counterstrike2guide.com/articles/my-cs2-fps-optimization-journey-from-lag-to-pro-level-performance.html valuable in-game funds). Today, we’ll go over some of e
The AWP is practically the franchise mascot . This classic one-shot showstopper has been the bane of many servers, and the boon of any player that has taken the time to master it. Everyone knows and either loves or fears its trademark firing so
This aside, the Navaja Knife, Ultraviolet, Factory New is a good-looking knife. Ultraviolet finishes look good on pretty much anything, so it’s no surprise that the best-looking Navaja knife uses it. The simple colours and minimalist design make it look clean and sleek whilst also hiding the base appearance, which leaves much to be desired. The unsightly wooden handle in most Navaja knives is replaced with a solid colour of purple, which pairs perfectly with the black bl

Karambits are one of the most iconic knives in gaming, thanks to CS:GO. The Karambit was one of the five knives first introduced in The Arms Deal update. The Karambit is easily recognizable, thanks to its signature curved shape. It is also unique because the blade is positioned to the right of the default view model instead of the left like every other knife (besides the Tal
The Desert Eagle, also mocked as the “Deagle”, is an incredibly cheap pistol that gets the job done. It’s known throughout the game as the great equalizer. The Deagle is one of the very few weapons capable of a one-shot kill, and when used properly, is entirely capable of winning a round on its
Ultimately, the Trust Factor has a clear focus according to the patent, which, “may provide an improved gaming experience for users who desire to play a video game in multiplayer mode in the manner it was meant to be played.” This description playing a game as intended refers to players who respect the game in its core design, meaning those who do not cheat or act in toxic w

The Navaja is a fairly unpopular knife in the CS:GO community, which is no exaggeration. CS:GO skin YouTuber TDM_Heyzeus used community votes from nearly 3,000 people to rank the knives from best to worst, and the Navaja was voted the worst by a considerable mar
The above points come as little surprise. The longer one has spent on a single game account, the less likely they are to be outright cheating due to the cheat detection systems and the issuing of VAC-bans for those who are caught. If one has several hundred or thousands of hours in a game, it is fair to say they enjoy playing and likely are not cheating relative to an account with only a few hours of playt
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
There is at least one reason why Train has appeared in Counter-Strike, Counter-Strike: Source , and Counter-Strike: Global Offensive . It happens to be a delightful map that is relatively balanced for both teams. Sprinting into A site like the game is Call of Duty is just about the worst thing you can do. Plenty of players think Call of Duty and CS: GO are similar. Attackers are advised to stick together, communicate with team members, and choose a bomb site. Both bomb sites on Train can be reached easily, so you may as well have your squad with you when plant
A very common mistake that players make is giving away footstep noises to the opposing team. This not only gives opponents a general idea of your location, but it also buys them enough time to rotate or re-strategize. This could also hinder your own game plan, and it will essentially put your whole team in a bad s
Ultimately, we can only really guess as to how Valve weighs each of these points, or if it even uses all of them at all in determining a Trust Factor value per player account. There is much more to consider, and everyone should take the time to check out the patent for themselves. It can appear to be a long, daunting read, because it is, but there are some interesting pieces of information to glean from such an endea
