Slide Maps: A How to & Tips Guide Difficulty: Beginner |
| Category: CS:S > Strategies & Tactics | Author(s): |!L0N3 W0LF!|, X4iVaz |

Ok here it is. This is my first tutorial ever so I hope it helps.
Insight: Most people in the CS:S community play the normal/default maps. There are some thought that play "surf" maps, "gun game" maps, "xc"(climb) maps or other custom maps. BUT there are a select few people who play maps called "Slide" maps. These "slide" maps are like "surf" maps but are not worth little triangle things. (Imagine for a second, a small/big field that is long and length ways, and imagine a BIG fan blowing u around a map with no tuning back, that of course are "slide maps").
Idea: The main idea of ANY CS:S map is to kill each other, “gun game" maps are designed to give the person the skilful ability to gain different weapons whilst killing others, "xc" maps are designed for a person to test their CS:S ability and try to reach the top of the map without falling off the tiny blocks, whilst "surf" & "slide" maps give that extra option of reaching a certain spot in the map.
Any way, back to the whole reason made this tutorial.
Some people don't know how to slide so here is how & some tips.
|_First_|To actually get going u spawn in a safe spot and enter the sliding area through some sort of entrance. You will start running forward faster than usual. To move, ONLY use the left & right strafe keys. That is the first thing you need to learn.
(HINT: Once you start getting the hang of sliding by ONLY strafing left & right, try pressing the forward [faster] & backward [slightly slower] keys to give a little bit of control of your character.)
|_Second_| On some maps there are obstacles in your way, it may seem obvious but AVOID these and also AVOID round bomb target symbols on the ground.
(HINT: The obstacles kill you and thew bomb markings on the ground blow you up, walls in front of you CANNOT be jumped over BUT the bomb markings on the ground CAN be jumped over).(These to items are see in maps like "sliderace_city")
Also "usually" most things will kill you and "normally" the side walls (boundaries of the map) "do not" kill you, please take warning when I say usually and normally because some maps are opposite to others.
|_Third_| Whilst sliding on most maps you can easily shoot a person in seeing distance by not pressing a key and firing. eg. I see person in front of me, (still moving) I don't press any keys (maybe except crouch for better accuracy) and fire at the person. I can use any weapon including the powerful AWP. (This is possible because [technically] you are not moving what so ever [although it may appear that way] you can just stand still and fire with the same accuracy that you would have in normal maps.)
Well I hope this tutorial on the new map types called "slide" maps help you PWN / OWN your way to victory.
Also I would like to acknowledge my mate X4iVaz for helping me with getting some good screen shots.
Oh and by the way, excues me for the bad quality pictures, my computer is not the the best so please forgive me. |
