Little help for a newbie?

[Fireskull]

Just bought CS:S and I could use some help with the basics and such. I'm not asking for anyone to individually help, but linking to a good video or tut would be much appreciated. Thanks

It's pretty much like some other FPS computer games. Just play around and you'll get use to it, it's a pretty fun and strategic game. I recommend playing crackhouse deathmatch or dust2 deathmatch before you play eGO Highschool, so you don't have to wait minutes to play again. On a side note, if someone tells you to play jail, be careful! *You gotta wait MINUTES (sometimes 10) until you can play again. And if you fail to do some orders, even touching your mouse, you gotta wait 10 minutes to respawn.*

That's pretty much it. Play Deathmatch server until you get use to it, then play some Highschool, Dust, Dust2, or office server. Then, play jail if you wanna see what's with all the buzz about it.

If you want, I can help you "sorta" play better?

Stop lying jail is fun to watch even dead, and it rarely gets to more than 7 minutes IF you die at the begining. Add me on steam I will help you out with anything. ^_^

Main thing is learning when to shoot, crouch, walk, flash, nade and so forth. Add me up and I shall also help out since I remember what it was like to be new at the game and get creamed by everyone. Also little tweaks such as size the of your cross hair, sensitivity, help a lot as well.

One thing no one mentions is learn how to read your radar. It is incredibly helpful.

Well.. I am sure we could all help you in-game. But, if you would like to read up a little on some tactics and strategy. Try this guide:

It is a thread started by Ill Legend. There are some very useful tips in there. It's a pretty comprehensive guide.

Hope this helped. Anytime you want to play just send me a message on Steam.
