Win pistol = relatively easy 3-0, and then ur almost half way through the half, just off the back of the pistol

If you lost pistol, play 1 eco instead of force+eco maybe?

If you get plant (as T, and lose round), go eco, if not, force. If you lose as ct, go eco and stack a site, or go force.

2021-09-25 09:28

It's better to force 2nd, full eco 3rd, full buy 4th because of loss bonus. If you eco 2nd your buy in 3rd is bad

they are boring af

2021-09-25 01:10

I enjoyed playing them tbh. It's less competitive and more fun Btw I really liked Insertion 2

I prefer basalt tbh

2021-09-25 01:27

Insertion 2, and 1 for that matter are my least favourite maps ever. It's not what cs is supposed to be. Plus, limited visibility is ass. Yeah, I'm staying away from those 2

It's not about competitive cs it's just about having some fun in kinda weird map. It reminds me Militia from 1.6

2021-09-25 09:25

maybe that's not what CSGO is about but tbh it's kinda what CS was about in its early days, maps with little gimmicks and such, but this one was probably only made possible with CSGO. I like the idea tbh, as long as you don't go into the map trying to play it like a level 10 mirage game and you have some fun

2021-09-25 09:48

for me it's hard to take it as seriously and play my best since it's so short. it just doesn't feel right

2021-09-25 01:12

Just dont play?

2021-09-25 01:14

ye missing the afk players so maches can go longer

2021-09-25 01:16

I like them, sucks to have to go afk for 45 minutes because I got a boring all russian team. Now I just have to wait like 10 minutes to find some funny Finns or whathaveyous.

2021-09-25 01:16

Theyre fun but i like normal version more,just i like to learn how enemy play and get benefits of it in mid game

2021-09-25 01:26

Yeah u can exploit it with few tricks, cause its so fast

2021-09-25 01:33

Don't play it then 4Head

2021-09-25 01:47

I couldn't agree more with you, people just buy p90s and smgs and rush like crazy lol

2021-09-25 01:41

Is the economy adjusted to reflect the match length?

2021-09-25 09:27

no, win pistol = win game

2021-09-25 09:32

You dont like it dont play it. Simple as that

2021-09-25 09:34

2021-09-25 09:40

yeah i didnt need to play it to know that

2021-09-25 09:50

dont play it if you dont like it

2021-09-25 09:50

i thing its nice but it should stay casual, not ever being played competitive pls. just ct lose first buy round they already lost the half idk

2021-09-25 09:52

ok I like it, you play something else maybe, I play this

2021-09-25 09:52

How do you even play matchmaking like a real csgo?

2021-09-25 09:53

No? It's kinda nice, the matches are shorter, so if they're bad you don't have to spend too long, and although the pistol rounds become too important imo, they're not game-breaking

2021-09-25 09:55

IT is optional so dont play it. Problem solved. I found it great because im too lazy latetly for a full match

Problem is that the people playing that gamemode will still rank up and be able to play GE on normal mode.. making MM even worse than it already is, so it isn't a solution to just "not play it".

I dont see a problem myself. If you are lets say 8/10 skill player 16 round match youll still be 8/10 player in 8 round match. Why needs to be the opposite ? If takes less time to rank up and meet your rank is always better

2021-09-25 13:54

Short match is literally the same as normal mm just shorter. The only thing I noticed is that the games have a lot more variety in the ranks cause I always play with people that have 2 or 3 ranks lower than me. Probably to ensure that you get a game quickly

2021-09-25 10:12

You gotta pay more attention to economy in shorter matches

2021-09-25 14:03

short matches need an economy revamp and they're fine imo. Pistol rounds are too powerful atm, can't forcebuy gotta eco or ur fucked if u lose the force on the CT side.

2021-09-25 14:04

does it share the same ranks as normal matches? or it has a different rank like wingman? (I don't play mm)

2021-09-25 14:06

See if you win/lose do you win/lose same amount of ELO as playing full match or just half?

2021-09-25 14:08

ok you dont have to play them

2021-09-25 14:08

havent played it yet, but does it counts as a ranked match? i mean does it affects the rank or smth?

2021-09-25 14:10

It definitely plays different. When I played it, the match felt a lot less serious than a normal competitive. I think I'll continue playing the real game mode for a more classic experience.

2021-09-25 14:31

+1 worst thing is this shit uses same rank as MM. People dont communicate, forces every round, rush/plays like its casual... just wtf?

2021-09-25 15:14

They should only change the economy a little bit like making the first lose bonus 1900 instead of 1400. Great mode BTW, will bring a lot of people who couldn't take 1 hour of their day to play CS.
