New CS Weapons guide

Posted by Space Cowboy at 17:51 26/3/2001.

The Firingsquad have just published a guide to all the weapons in CS 1.1, with tips on how and when to use them.

Where to begin? There are so many topics to cover when learning the ins and outs of Counter-Strike's weapons. Simply picking a weapon to purchase isn't a cut and dry decision. The obvious weapon attributes such as range, accuracy, and damage are important to consider, but other considerations include the map you're playing and the kinds of enemy encounters you'll likely face.

Unlike Quake, it's not as easy to come out on top of a 2 on 1 confrontation in Counter-Strike. The weapons are far more powerful and players are far less resilient, making the average conflict last less then a second. The weapon you choose is going to make all the difference in these split second battles.

Useful stuff for the n00bies out there, but nothing special for the veteran.
