a Counter Strike 2 Beginner Guide

Installing at the moment and then I was here lol. Thank youuu.

I just got my 1st gaming pc a couple of days ago and CS is the 1st game I'm going to try with mouse n keyboard (came from console) I hope I can get used to it 🙏🏻 thanks for the video 🤟🏻

such a amzing video man CS it so new to me you mad it so easy to learn and understand to the point Thank you man love u

1 yr later. Sick guide. Beginner here and feeling a bit less stressed as well as getting some questions answered.

Cheers

Best quote "CS is chess but with a gun" 🤣

I play the game on and off, used to play 1.6 back in the day and in CSGO I had around 100-200 hrs but I have never tried ranked or even casual. 90% of time is playing deathmatch and 90% of that on dust 2. Kind of wanna actually try playing ranked a bit here and then

Thanks, man. When you said 1000h, I found out it is not for me.

the movement section of the video was super good! does anyone in the comments got tips for movement on a lower framerate? (7-11 fps average)

For me, placing crosshair down a lil from the head more stomach level bc of recoil and everyone crouches first usually lol maybe just a me thing, but coming from console to this game and playing on keyboard for the first time, has been a real struggle lol especially with this game

I used to play a lot of cs 1.6

My last CS is 1.6. I'm shocked how much the game has changed

I am 60 sec into the video, this is exactly what I needed!

when I first started out, I sucked at aiming and shooting. but I tried my best to understand game sense and patterns, and even if I lost a duel or got myself killed I was able to help the team on a macro level in terms of positioning and area control. don't be one of those people who prioritize getting kills above all else. even if you suck at aiming, you can still be an asset to your team just by having decent positioning and game sense.

ive played valorant, would that give me a headstart in cs2 or no?

Shouldve talked about avoiding flashbangs while talking about utility

very useful thank you!

Great video man! Thank you 🙏

I just downloaded it and i have no idea what to do

The Pros are so far ahead of the average player! Absolutely true.
This game has been there for so long that people who had been playing it from the beginning, or for a long time, has almost mastered it. Newbies and average players will be completely obliterated, and may even lose interest to continue playing anymore.

Thank you so much Brother, This was so helpful. Keep Going!👊🏻

To the new CS players and those who are returning from a long hiatus, welcome home! Remember to always think positively, especially when you meet certain grumpy trolls who do nothing but talk trash. Don't take the game too seriously and don't rage over a lost. At the end of the day, we're all here to have fun and a famous quote from CSGO: Hey, sometimes your opponent is just having a really good day
Enjoy the game and remember to jiggle peek

This is what you should do, don't ask questions! Copy that....

I was looking on how to know where to go. How do I find the objective and the guys I"m with

Yo bro can you make a short on how to make that crosshair

I really resonate with you comparing cs to chess. Thinking about to next steps and expecting moves can save you many rounds.

i'm a valorant player who's tring cs2 for the first time. Really helps man!!!

just paste your config file and i can skip the settings

Just logged into steam after months of not gaming due to college work I had no idea cs:go was now cs2 so this video was perfect for me whilst im waiting for the game to download and update thankyou :)

I keep reloading...

2kliksphilip did a video on input lag for fullscreen vs windowed vs windowed fullscreen. windowed sucks but windowed fullscreen is fine.

and nobody says how to connect to servers, who is admin, etc.

Windows 11 has a feature that bypasses the technicality that always gave borderless 3 frames of extra input lag on by default for games. especially if you wanna do stuff on secondary monitors and not have your game break for a few seconds, there is no real disadvantage to borderless windowed anymore. as a bonus, freesync and g-sync work natively in borderless now

Bro THANK YOU..I was just roasted about being trash and this will hopefully help lol

Thank you!

I am new to this genre of game. This is very easy to understand, it helps a lot! thank you!

As a new player to CS and FPS overall, it would be nice to have more beginners videos. I enjoyed a lot playing against bots but it's so frustrating to go online just to die every 2 seconds without dealing any damage at all...

I played csgo a few years ago and i feel like ive been left behind, i wasnt good before but now im just so f-ing bad hahahahaha this helped a bit entering again in the game, thanks for the video, i hope there is more videos about mechanics and how to play it and going a bit more in depth with time, thanks!

TY

Returning to CS after 20 years. Thanks

I have 60 hours in arms race at CS:GO. 17 hours in zombie modes in 1.6.
5 hours in LAN on condition zero
660 hours in multigame servers on counter strike source.
And now i have 60 hours in CS2 competetive.

I have no idea how to play this game competetive but im just now for the first time ever grasping the straws on what game sense is and how to move

thanks man i hope this will make me better.

Is there a way to hold zoom instead of toggle, and also change the allies hud on top of them?

Is there a way to hold the zoom instead of toggle? I hate this

Sometimes I hate having a busy work life. I just want to be good so my friends invite me... 🤣🤣

As someone who is completely new to CS, this was useful and your demeanour is very welcoming as the CS community is terrifying

Both ambient occlusion and global shadows can be used in CS2 to spot enemy player's presence before you actually see them. Thanks to CS2 finally having real time shadows and occlusion indoors. Having shadows on low is factually putting yourself at a disadvantage.

Just actually discovered this game on Steam, Ive heard CS GO, the whole bit, but actually seeing Counter Strike 2 and the graphics, I could just tell that this was a game with an incredibly high skill ceiling. One can only hope the matchmaking is good. Or this is gonna be smoke show for me. I'm picking this title up and gonna get started. Better late than never.

Thanks man, I know it takes a lot of practice but it’s good to know what to do anyway

This game is one of those that feel immense at first. I'm trying to grasp the basics, thanks for the guide.

if you have a pc that's an absolute monster, would it be okay to leave settings on high?
