good lord. Is it legit?... i assume so because 3D is showing it to us. Still.. i personally think bunny hoping should be illegal no matter what because CSS is supposed to be realistic and since in RL terrorists and counter terrorists cant "bunny hop"

and like quickswitching... it wasnt an intended feature of the game.... just a glitch that is exploited.

This is the type of stuff that while cool... only leads to further problems and the eventual loss of the legit gamer community. The more stuff people find to exploit and the more blurred the lines become as groups like CAL allow more and more to be exploited... the more hackers infiltrate the game and the game loses what made it great and becomes an environment that breeds non legit players who will do anything and attempt anything to get ahead.

Even if someone thinks bunny hopping is important/ a part of the game, They can't convince me that that was legit. There's no way to get that kind of distance/ speed that I wouldn't conceive as an exploit. I can't believe those guys consider themselves pros, and they see that as a real strategy.

I agree with you about bunny hopping, but this just blows it out of the water. It's a completely different level of exploitation.

I hope valve see's this.

All cheap tactics come down to one question: how do I counter? the AWP is generally restricted because there are few effective options you have against an enemy wielding that weapon, but those options do exist, so it's not cheating. There are no such options to counter the slingshot. The slingshoting team will win, every time, no effort.

Wrong.

They're assuming the slingshot works with the traditional 2-1-2 set-up where 2 cover A, 2 cover ramp room/B, and 1 awps outside.

If they're constantly getting behind you, you simply move your man from warehouse to CT spawn ramp. You can still pick outside and you have an unobstructed view of the hop from twinkie to mini to backside. Switch to an m4 and carry a flash with you and you ruin his bunny-hop.

And yeah, it's legit, sL!ppY. It's the very same as just boosting onto twinkie and going from there, except you get that added initial speed. You can still bunny-hop from twinkie onto mini and to CT ramp room.

I could care less about the move, I just want one of those cool jerseys.

Civil, your avatar....

Do you ride your horse into battle alongside humvees and fast-movers? How deep of water can you take that thing?

How much horse-power does it have?

No, but I need to take it in CS:S with me, so when my team bails on a rush with me in the lead I can retreat just as fast as them.

No joke.

Civil was in the front of the pack numerous times today only to find his team stop behind him. Some mighta been team-flashed, flashed, or just chicken shit. I still truck on ahead whether I'm blind or not.

Civil had the bomb on inferno and we rushed banana. I was in the lead and one-deag'd the first guy around the corner before I got filled with lead. Civil, right behind me, avenged my death and proceeded to the back of the site with the bomb.

Meanwhile, me, being dead, saw the entire field of play....and saw Civil...alone in the site, screaming for his team to come in and help him, while they were all making love to the car in banana. And that's just one instance.

If there's 10 rushing bodies to shoot at, you won't ALL die! Strength in numbers, my friends.
