The new Counter-Strike 2 series was released at the end of 2023. Many experienced players have already appreciated the innovations, but there are also newcomers who are completely unfamiliar with the shooter and are planning to start playing. Today we will give advice for them.
Use only high-quality headphones for gaming
Do you want to be useful on the battlefield? Know how to listen and hear the enemy. This can only be done with a high-quality headset. It is advisable that it be with a microphone – this way you can timely and clearly notify your allies about the actions and plans of the enemy.
It will be a shame if you miss something due to poor quality sound: to revive in the main game mode you will need to wait until the start of the next round.
Don't forget about the Shift button
When moving, hold down this key: this way your movement will be silent. What advantage does this give? Possibility of a more stable sight! When approaching a potential hot spot on the map, take a step and proceed as carefully as possible. Want to confuse your enemy? Be sure to use the Shift key.
Thoroughly study several of the most important guns
The game has a large selection of weapons. We suggest that you first familiarize yourself with the most important ones:
AK-47. This is the main gun used by terrorists in the shooter. It penetrates armor well.
M4A1. Another main gun. This is the prerogative of special forces. The gun is equipped with a silencer, which makes traces of bullets in the air invisible to the enemy.
Desert Eagle. The most powerful and convenient pistol for medium and long range. It is quite expensive, and it is not easy to master, but it allows you to shoot from a long distance and kill quickly.
SSG 08 (known in gaming slang as “fly”). This is a sniper weapon, a more budget-friendly alternative to the sniper “elephant” (AWP). This model will not allow you to kill the enemy in one go – You'll have to hit twice or get a headshot.
Play as a team
In Counter-Strike you need to play together and be part of a team. It's simple: don't be useful – will be removed from the match. Don’t forget to tell your allies the important information you have, cover them, in general – act together. Use voice chat or radio messages.
Act quickly
Don't want to get killed? Buy weapons as quickly as possible and take the desired position. In order to speed up, use hot keys (by the way, here is another tip – learn these keys and their combinations). For example, to quickly open a store, press B on the keyboard, to buy an AK-47 – consistently press combination B – 4 – 2.
We also advise beginners to pay attention to the minimum system requirements of the shooter. To fully launch and play, your PC must have a 4-core processor, 8 GB of RAM, a video card with 1 GB or more memory, and at least 85 GB of free disk space.
