Oh it does and it's glorious.

I'm going to need your steam account login/pw to verify.

big lol at this AIDS glitch where my hud, crosshair and killfeed all disappear, get your **** together valve

had that happen to me once, luckily my monitor has a setting to put a crosshair on the screen (though it's like 1 pixel off from cs)

it came back the next round

Twice now I have ranked up on a draw. This is confusing to me as from what I've read the "points" are attributed per rounds won, and deducted per rounds lost. So if you were to have 1 point per round won and -1 per round lost, on a 16-14 you would only do +2.

This means on draws I should earn 0 points, thus not leveling up. Obviously there's something else going on. Really curious as to what that is, but okay.

On a braggy note: I've reached Master Guardian I for the first time. Pretty happy about that.

Also, cool video from n0thing about spraying, spray control, bursts and movements:

It's a modified ELO that takes into account individual performance. I don't know where you heard the points thing, but it's wrong.

Alright, I guess I misread what's going on behind the scenes. In any case, happy with my rank up

ive ranked up on ties before. if the other teams mmr is higher than your teams you still gain points for a tie, since you did better than expected. if your elo is really high for your rank, a tie can put you over.

Games are invalidated by overwatch or whatever all the time and don't update until your next game as another consideration. I remember we played a game after TakTiks got banned and Hoya or ludacris dropped like 3 ranks lmao.

speaking of which i got overwatch last night

**** got old after like 3 demos tho

yeah, i dropped to MG1 or MG2. I won a few matches and got badge back tho.

I didn't derank cuz I don't get carried to ranks I don't belong at.

Fyp

Thanks for the video. Every time he said "wtf are you doing?" that applied to me lol

lol, you & me both

Dat comeback from fnatic, amazing work by pronax.

Idk what the deal is, but every time I entered a DM today it was pistols only (even though it shouldn't be) and it was essentially a 20 min single round diffuse. So whoever plants the bomb is an *******

Maybe it has to do with the internet protests today

just played like 15 deathmatches and didn't notice any weird stuff, all 10 minute rounds too

It's still happening on DoGz and Fragshack. I guess it's good that it's not happening everywhere

"TaRiK - yeah i know servers are ****ed up, the latest update ****ed them up and I have a faceit match right now"

I swear sometimes it looks like he is wallhacking just because he knows the game so well.

Speaking of great games, that triple ot between hr and dig earlier was pretty good too

Yea that was a really close match. I could only catch the last 2 OTs, not the first one, but it was indeed pretty impressive. It's a bit specific, but I think the match was lost on a failed smoke by one of the HR players.

He basically went in hut to fake a rush A whilst his 2 team mates were ramp but he missed the window and the smoke completely failed (he was aiming for main). They carried on with the execution but at that point they got owned and I think that was the end of them.

Just had first 16-0 in an ESEA pug (16-7 on my end, 20 frags for top fragger), got two more ESEA aces recently too

I find ESEA way more enjoyable than matchmaking for solo/duo. If you're decent, I highly recommend it. Haven't tried the other pugging services like FACEIT / CEVO. Haven't really been matchmaking though, between the blatant hackers, people crying about hacking, trolls, 12 year olds, and 120 ping occasionally-latino teammates I really don't miss it. Oh and #OMG64TIXSURVURREJ

Here's two random quickies from a recent match, deathmatching paid off for the second one

i really want to play this game!
If anybody has a copy, I'm willing to trade it for XCOM: Enemy Unknown + DLC Elite Soldier Pack + DLC Slingshot Pack.
I don't care about XCOM but maybe you do.
Hopefully someone is interested
