Hey all!! just wanted to know if anyone here plays this? and if so could you give me some pointers on how to kill at least one person?? hehe Im crap at it

lots of practice.... i try to get at least 2-3 games in a week at least, or else i fall out of shape.

best to go practice on weak weapons, so when u pick up ones with bigger and better fire power, the emeny drop like flys.

my personal favorites to train on are the scout and pistols. at first you won't kill anyone but as you get better people respect?? a scout kill.

if it's really to hard, just train with the bots for a while, as they are really easy to kill.

what servers have you been visiting? i ususally reside in swiftgames or ozforces forums, they seem to have a good ping if you live in sydney...

cool - I practised with the bots and theyre easy, but as soon as I get on with other ppl I get owned!!! I can make a couple of kills here and there sometimes....

and Ive played it almost every night for the last 2 weeks for at least 2 hours every night!!!! hehe

whats your nicks on there??

as far as the servers go my ping usually sits at around 140 - i cant get it lower than that, i like the optusnet servers and some of the gamespace.net ones

..lots of practice..

Yep plenty of this, coz thats what the 15yr old kid on the on the other end is doing 24/ 7. Good fast internet connection & server ping helps, as well as increasing your display gamma (so you can see those chicken sh!7s camping in the dark spots).

Study your fav maps, weapons (+/-), familiarise yourself with shortcut keys (like when shopping) & purchase weapons depending on your style of game play & map sizes. For specifics do a search on the web regarding tactics, helpful tips etc.

When I use to be addicted to this game I practiced at LAN centres & the weapons of choice for me was mid-long range rifles with a scope (I'd be one of those people who'd shoot you through walls & doors) :headshot: & for very close quarters automatic shotgun.

yup, practice is king

before i got my unhealthy addiction to WoW i used to play a fair bit online and at lan with friends, always better fun with friends.

also, get ventrillo or team speak if you play with your buddies and when your on the same side its easier talking than the actual cs:s voice thing

I played from BETA 2 (Which was out in what... 1998ish?, until about Beta 5.5, then stopped 'coz i thought it was going downhill... after that, i would play each new beta for a week or so until i got sick of it 'coz i felt it lost the essence of counterstrike. Anyway, started playing source when it first came out, and now i'm back into it :D

looks like Ive got alot of practising to do then!!!! hehe

does the whole thing with the ping mean that some guy with a ping of 30 is technically hitting me with more bullets when Im on 140? does it create that much of a lag?

your ping is more like a connection rate.... the better it is the smoother the game play. on swiftgames for example i usually ping in the 20's. you will notice when some one has a high ping rate as they seem to lag. You will notice everyone else almost teleport from one place to another.

also ajust your frame rate, it healps heaps in getting a smooth game.

As mentioned before memorise the shortcuts.

and my nick is usually syntax error.

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.

      Freddy Plenum vs Genuine options RB25

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      My return flow is custom and puts the return behind the reo, instead of at the bottom. All my core is in the air flow, rather than losing some of it up behind the reo. I realise that the core really acts more as a spiky heatsink than as a constant rate heat exchanger, and that therefore size is important.... but mine fits everything I needed and wanted without having to cut anything, and that's worth something too. And there won't be a hot patch of core up behind the reo after every hit, releasing heat back into the intake air.

      There is a really fun solution to this problem, buy a Haltech (or ECU of your choice) and put the MAF in the bin.  I'm assuming your going to want more power in future, so you'll need to get the ECU at some stage. I'd put the new MAF money towards the new ECU.
