Can people still kick you from matches for being bad at the game? If not I might consider trying it again.

Ironically I find that silvers screech more about shitty team mates than any ither rank.

Just a few days ago had a 3000 CS rated dude losing his fucking mind at one of our team mates because he was bottom fragging, only for the angry dude to end up hard negative KD while still bitching

He's trying really hard for gold status okay! You don't understand the pain and stress he's going through to try and get there, and his teammate playing badly reflects directly on his physical gaming ability!!

There is a kick option, yes.

Just use a name like noob be gentle. I hate it when ppl kick in casual because someone plays badly.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That name is guaranteed to get you kicked.

What about expertplskik?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah, they can at least call a vote.

Welp, have to pass then, pisses me off way too much when that happens.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yes, and that's the reason why I play it only with 2+ friends, it's a completely different game this way.

I will spend hours and hours playing against expert bots until I can consistently be at the top of the leader board. Then I be ready to play against humans and rank at the bottom.

I have been playing CS since 1.6 and every time a I take a break I have to start all over again.

I definitely hear you on this one. I stopped playing for a few years and I dropped from LEM to Silver 4. The skill drop-off is immense!

Bots seem to be set to "Drunk and Sleepy". Changing bot_difficulty does not seem to make a difference.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Pretty much, they are good for target practice and that's about it

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

bot_difficulty 5

custom_bot_difficulty 5

Those seem to work. The standard 1-3 make no difference that I can tell. They are still very very dumb, but at least they do not hesitate 5 sec to pull the trigger and can hit a target.
