How to Improve Your Skills of Playing Counter Strike

Counter Strike is a PC First Person Shooter game. Before reading this article, you should download Counter Strike and install it. Then good strategies will be given to you for practicing in Counter-Strike.

Do not use up all of your money every round. Every good player goes two or three rounds without buying a single thing. This saves money to buy a better gun. If your team wins, that's even better for you! If you're ranging between $0-$1,500, do not buy anything. You want to save money until you have at least $3,000. If you're a CT, you always want to buy a defusal kit first. You can always use the extra points/money. It's perfect for those times you wish you had the kit. They're not expensive, you always have enough for one!

Avoid the spam areas or the places in the map where most deaths occur. If you do not have a decent gun, there is no need to get into a gun fight. It's best to avoid being detected. Camp when necessary, don't camp around if it's not strategical! That only bothers the players that are dead. If you're left with a few players, walk. Most players will just keep running along and expect to hear everybody. If you walk, this increases your chances of getting the first shot. Wear headphones and listen to sounds! Listen to footsteps, grenades, and gunfire! Think smart. Don't jump out too early, sneak around!

When using the AWP, always stop or crouch just before shooting as shooting while moving with the awp gives you NO accuracy!

If you're in a pub, try sticking around with the best player on the team. If there's not an experienced player, try to stick with the team. You can't really find good team work in pubs anyway, but it's best to be with a group than to die alone. Oh, and try not to stack the teams. It only annoys the people on the server. Play smart and don't try anything stupid. If you're a CT on a bomb map, stay at the bombsites. Don't waste time in the Terrorists' spawning area.

Do not talk with other players, unless it is working as a team to get the objective done. Don't act immature or complain if you die. Learn to accept the fact that there are people better than you. It's about the fun. There's no need to attack other players verbally. It just makes you look like an idiot. If you gonna say something, just say it inside your head and try to correct your mistakes. You get better over time, lots of time. It takes years to get good. Once you're experienced, try joining CAL with a clan.

Learn about how long it takes for you to get from your spawn to specific places. For example, if you know how long it takes for a CT to get into lower B tunnels, then all you have to do is listen. Or, if you hear some footsteps, you can take appropriate measures to ensure that you don't die helplessly.
