okay so your new to the game?

few tips for you too get you started in the right way
and maby 1 day, fight along side the pros like me

1. make good use of that walk you have(SHIFT KEY)
many times ive walked and herd the bad guys footsteps!
this is a great way too really surprise your enemy esp FoW matches!

2. best gun? i say there isnt one, all guns are good if used in the right way
take a M4a1 for example, good ammo (30/90) reload rate good and is VERY good at accracey, this meens where ur lil target is pointing it will fire a line off 30 rounds (not sprayed!) in that direction, this is great if you can aim well
Ak47 is awsome too same rounds as an m4a1 BUT it sprays!!!, a good gun too use if you just started in the world of cs2d!, and if your aim is a lil dodgey
Mac 10 / TMP both these guns work the same way, one is T (mac) and TMP is CT, these bueatys have a faster fire rate than an m4a1 and even ak47, down side is there range is bad, so if your in open space and in a gun fight with some 1 with an m4/ak you will find urself, unless amazing with you aim, pinned down, use these guns whilst rushing, this is when you rush straight into bad guys land you can burst of your rounds, maby even get a sneaky kill, whilst homeing in on the evil dudes
SNIPERS, all these guns are very handy, but are hard to use at first, u have to right click to zoom and when i say zoom i meen zoom! you veiw goes onto your target, when pressed once, but press again u go zooming closer to your target elimnating your vision off the map, only this u can see whilst scoped is the part in witch your aiming at!
but zoomed = more damge i would reckamend new players to stay away from using snipers as they are hard to master at first,
MP5, this is one of my faves, good ammo(better than ak/m4) slowish fire rate but it preserves your ammo and gives you more time to aim at ur enemy, ive used this gun in many fights with players using ak/m4 and ive turnd out winning even when my aim is bad xD, its cheap too so you can easly afford some arma and maby a spare he gren when funds are low,
P90, this is a great gun, ammo is 50/100 and it sprays a bit too! only down side is reloade speed so when using this gun find cover whilst you reload, TRUST me ive made the mistake of shooting like mad with this gun and when im outta bullets in middle of fire i die reload speed is rubbish but you carnt have em all! there are other guns but these are the ones you should use as a new player

3.Dodge
this is a skill i use loads, and belive me it saved my ass loads when in cross fire DONT stand still and shoot MOVE in a figure of 8 motion whilst keeping you target on the bad guys, this will take some time to master but its worth doing as you can evade the opponets aim, and hopefully! help yours, as when ur moving and have a gun that sprays this preforms a greater area of bullets, so basicly your bound to get in a hit

4.Grenades
H.E this is the BOOM BOOM side arm, you can select this (once brought! (Default key(c4) by pressing the number 3 or move the mouse wheel if you have one, H.Es are great to throw when you are being rushed at or to make an enemy retreat from his position, when he does open fire on him!, they can hurt multiple enemys and have an explosion area! great to use if your playing FoW and not sure on an enemys postion, throw and he and listen for footsteps or look in the grey area where u thrown it for blood stains, this whould have hit the enemy and willl give out his postion,
FlashBangs,
use these puppys, (default buy key (C3), u can buy 2, when u are rushing in to a area that will most likely house CT/T depending on ur team, they will make there screen turn white, depending on how close they are to it going of, it will last for 3-8 seconds of pure white, great too pick em off with a cheeky knife kill or if u want to play safe shoot they hell outta them xD, be warned a flash bang can sumtimes not make the enemys screen totaly white, so they can still see, you can tell this if your enemy still points at ur direction with the muzzle of his gun, AND if u get near your own flashbang, after throwing you can blind urself and teammates so aim carefully!!!
Flare, use these in FoW matches they reveal a spot in witch exploded on visale for a good amount of time, you can see all enemy/friends that go past it, great to use if you are guarding a spot that as two ways that an enemy can attack you from,


right this is all for now, hope this info helps you all out new and old players many thanks ||ACID||Apple>uk<

ps add me on msn - Email address (only visible with login) - i will be glad to awnser any questions on the game or if you want some good advice!

Hey, lol nice tips

How about the M249 though oO


hi! the M249 is a rubbish gun in my view and i dont think its a good gun too use as a new player as its expensive and makes you really sluggish

lol, i used to be pretty good in cs2d and i agree just about with the grenades part of your text

apple, are you Apple.iPod who used to be in the FDF clan? if not you must have startet in sometime last year

btw: you said the pros like you. do you actually know what exactly a pro is? a pro in a game is someone who earns money playing this game, by winning prices in tournaments (escw, esp, cpl, wcg) or have a sponsor. since there are barely any tournaments in cs2d where you can win money and i you probably dont have a sponsor i doubt that you're a pro. a better term would be highskilled

I'd like to add something,
and I hope you don't mind, Bullet.

5. Radar
That transparent green circle on the top left of your screen with a cross through it is your radar. It's a usefull tool that shows where your teammates are located on the map. The middle of the cross represents yourself while any white dot represents a teammate of yours. If a teammate is on the left of you, then it will show a white dot on the left of you on the radar. If a teammate is on top of you, then it will show a white dot on top of you on the radar. If you can't see a teammate on your screen and you want to regroup with someone, simply locate a white dot on your radar, and head to it! Also, radars don't show the map your playing in, it's simply transparent green with white dots representing your teammates so you can easily locate them and regroup.
If a teammate throws a grenade followed by a message ''Fire in the hole!'' or when a teammate says a command like ''Follow Me.'', the white dot of that teammate will glow yellow and turn back white again for a couple of times (as if you turn the lights on and off every second) so you know which teammate throwed a grenade or said a command. If a teammate calls for backup it would be helpfull to locate him on the radar and head to him as fast as possible, because a teammate calling for backup mostly means that he's in some serious trouble! I bet you would appreciate it if your cornered by the enemy and when you call for backup a teammate arrives and helps you out by killing the enemy from behind! So basically what I'm saying is, keep an eye on your radar and make use of it, it might actually win you a game!

* Always try and play with Fog of War whenever possible. This makes it so you cannot see everything on the map, only what's in front of you. It is a more realistic depiction of the game in my opinion, and most serious matched require it, meaning you need to get good at it.

* Use stealth tecniques whenever possible, especially while Fog of War is enabled. You never want your enemy to know where you are and what your next move is.

* You don't have to fight every enemy you see. Sometimes, it is best to flee with your life and regroup with your team, and also make sure that you alert your team of the increased enemy presence. The best players know when to leave a fight.us

Lawl, flee with your life. I'll keep that in mind

Is that how you got so good
To be honest that's the worst tactic I've ever heard.

You should try ForrestG's rushing technique on dust,
it's quite good.
