The forklift problem

Posted: 28 Dec 2017 01:09 PM PST

Hello, I'm writing this post to make people aware of the position forklift and the problems it has. Forklift is a position found on the left side of A main and is a common position for most CT sides, sometimes even being a default position.

The problem with forklift is that it's inconsistent with what you can shoot through, what is penetrable and what can't be shot through.

Forklift body: All of the main body is not penetrable, this is fine but it get's interesting next. link
Gear stick, the stick can be completely shot through with no penetration, the block where the stick is however will block bullets completely. When I said all the body of the forklift is not wall bangable, there was one part where it isn't, the gif shows it link
The wheel does not block any bullets and can be shot through. link However the block that the wheel is placed on cannot be wall banged through.
The chair can be shot through but sometimes it will be a wall bang instead. The block that the chair is on cannot be shot through.link
The top bars can be shot completely. The black blocks holding them cannot be shot through link

The problems this presents:

it makes the ability to see someone there far harder, especially a ct who is wearing black. There is no point being objects that can be completely shot through as they just affect vision.

RNG based position, shooting at someone at this position is like rolling a dice. You head shot them through a part that is wallbangable, a part that isn't or is.

It makes this part of the map feel more cluttered due to their being useless parts.

TLDR: Forklift has inconsistent parts.

Wingman needs Overwatch badly.

Posted: 28 Dec 2017 03:12 AM PST

I've always really wanted a 1v1 or 2v2 official gamemode for CS:GO. We finally got it, and it's amazingly implemented imho.

Except for the fact that there is no Overwatch. There are ragecheaters every game at the higher ranks. Getting Global Elite feels literally impossible. Just played another game and got told that I shouldn't play Wingman without hacks. That's how bad it is. I was the only non-hacker together with three ragecheaters. And that isn't the first occurence. Has happened to me at least 5 times.

So Valve, please add Overwatch to Wingman. The gamemode is great but with this addition it would become so, so much better. I'd say there's a 50/50 chance of finding a spinbotter or not right now from LEM onwards. Maybe skewed more towards finding one rather than not.

Looking for opinions: is FACEIT more popular than ESEA now?

Posted: 28 Dec 2017 06:36 PM PST

For example, right now, there are more people playing FACEIT right now. I'm looking to improve my gameplay and work my way into semi-pro leagues (like everyone else). Which would be better for this in your opinion?
