well the question is in the title
heres some proof today (before i rage quit)
i got a scout headshot for 37 damage
then an ak headshot chest shot combo for 46 damage
then i got stuck in the boxes and died like that twice
all this in a span of 5 rounds
i ended with 8-21
then i got super pissed and left in the best interest of my sanity

how can either become friends with css or just get better?
 
I know the feeling Waldo, the game hates us all at times...

There was this one day on High School I grabbed a TMP/228 and everything just died...I was repeatedly landing Headshots on people in T Window from courtyard...It was insane.

Conversely,

There are also days where I can have a scoped in scout on the head of a stationary Terrorist and it just plain misses(or hits the left arm somehow). A M4 spray shows 5 hits on someone(including a headshot) and the server only registers 2 hits(chest, left arm) my conclusion is that the hit boxes are extremely screwy at times and what you aim for and hit isn't where the hit boxes are at that moment.

Also my rule of thumb is, if there's a box/door/object near your target(even if the target's in front of it)...assume your bullets are somehow going to travel through said object before they hit them. The magic bullet is all too real in CS:S.

unfortunately registry is a big deal w/ CSS I recommend no matter how powerful the system ur playing on turn all the graphics and textures down get the most FPS and fix ur cmdrates and updaterates untill u get 0 choke in the middle of 6 smoke grenades w/ half the roman army around u! I play on a laptop and my cmd rate is 15 and update rate is 20.... so yeah
 
tat happens to all of us...i think
well it does to me
how to get better?...go to BT!!!!!!!!!!
 
ive already gone to bt including on 1
i get worse constantly
i play less then 30 hours a week so its not over playing
and regardless of what i do i suck overall anyway

A. You don't suck
B. BT is not going to make ur HS do more dmg... so yeah
C. Sometimes u hit people through things thinking u got them before you did for instance ur 38 dmg HS w/ the scout was it? That sounds like through the pop machines in west hall. A lot of times our reaction is to follow people and shot them as they are going behind things which is a good reflex but not all shots will get them before they get there
D. The good news is that your shots are dead on even when people are behind stuff!!!

no, but it will definatly help your accuracy and overall score eventually - what you should do is try to get private lessons from someone like King Killer, Oldie, or Frantic, they'll help you in whatever you need:thumbup:
 
take your time in your approach to the game. turn your head phones up, listen, look at radar, look for shadows in obvious spots. use your team mates (i know that sounds bad, but sometimes you got to) and above all start having fun playing the game. sooner or later it will come to you. you just have to find your style. are you an offensive rusher? or do you play on the defensive side. find which one is you and build on top of that. cheers and best of luck.
