It's really hard, takes hundreds of hours to master the basics.

 

It will help you a lot with other shooters.

Definetly worth the money and time to play.

With time of playing, you will learn to aim well, it goes for other games aswell if you have a similiar sensitivity in them as in csgo.

Theory is when you know everything but nothing works. Practice is when everything works but you dont know why. In this computer, theory and practice are combined: Nothing works and i dont know why.

 

Atleast i can manage Some things, like my current OC personal best.

It's more intense compared to other games to say the least.

You have to learn spray patterns, grenade throws, callouts etc. and it's very competitive.

Steep learning curve but it always gives you a sense of achievement when you win. Once you master CS, you've pretty much mastered the most hardcore FPS out there. Yet, it's very addictive.

'Fanboyism is stupid' - someone on this forum.

Be nice to each other boys and girls. And don't cheap out on a power supply.

There's two kinds of people when it comes to CS:GO.

  1. Those who love it -- myself, Edzel (from LMG), several forum users
  2. Those who hate it -- Also a large group of people. It's not your typical run-n-gun shooter. You actually have to think about playing and how to play things. You have to think about how to 'spray' and control your gun.

I'm part of the former, so I'd say it is. People in the latter will obviously say no. CS:GO players -generally speaking- are the better part of most shooters if they take a step back and realize they're not the same games. Coincidentally, most of the CS:GO players I know are also pretty decent at other games.

For 15$ its worth it. But it needs a lot of time to master and it will get you better in most fps games. (You live in the UK russians inc.)

If you love competitive multiplayer then yeah, if you can't stand listening to blown out Russian feedback through your headset every match then no...
