A downside of purchasing a Scout, though, is that there is a high skill requirement when it comes to using the weapon effectively. However, even if they have never sniped before, a player can still prove themselves useful with this weapon by shooting enemies in non-vital parts of the body or just by tagging them for their teammate to see. If players do choose to utilize this weapon, it is also advised that they seek high ground on the map, as this will allow them to scope out enemies from a distance and be protected by the elevat

If there's one thing that could make hearing slurs barked into your ear a little easier to swallow, it's cute anime girls. Picture, then, a challenger to CS:GO and Siege 's throne. A bouncier, brighter, and more inviting challenger - but with all the brown and bloom you've come to know and l

This month I'm looking forward to Mario Kart 7 . It's just one of those games that you can pickup and play whenever you want, and I plan on playing it throughout December and well into the new year. Since some folks are talking about what they're excited for next year, I'd have to say Halo 4 and Bioshock: Infinite are on the top of my l

"I came up with the idea in 2015. I could see how traditional blogs like ours were struggling as people moved to social media. The idea was to make something easy to use and run by the community. We’d seen others get their own dedicated apps and platforms like Doom with the Slayers Club and Star Wars with the Jedi Council Forums. We also love the idea of making a modern version of Planet Half-Life, which was a popular community-oriented fansite back in the day. We want to fill the void that is left."

Alex's point is an important one. I occasionally jump to Reddit to find out what's going on with the community, perhaps to discuss some wild theories about the G-Man after a long day of bunny-hopping through the waterways of Half-Life 2, but the subs are drowned in memes. So, I go to Twitter, where it's near-impossible to find any structured form of discussion. The only spot to find community content in a neat package was LambdaGeneration, but even then it was curated by fans - what was being lost in that process? LambdaGeneration’s new social media platform addresses all of these issues.

The beginning of Danger Zone games usually consist of players scanning the environment while deploying to look for CS2 pro Crosshair settings the first small red supply crate that they see. The reason for this is that small red supply crates contain weapons and have no prerequisites to open (such as Molotov cocktails or melee weapons), which means that they can be opened as soon as the round sta

"Contrary to what people may think, LambdaGeneration actually grew during Valve’s silence," Alex explains. "Many of the news-oriented sites that once overshadowed us started to struggle - many just gave up. The community, however, did not."

The Skeleton Knife in Urban Masked looks simple and allows you to appreciate the design and shape of the knife itself. The knife has a hole in the middle of it between the handle and blade, making it one of the most interesting weapon designs to date. Urban Masked is a skin that looks almost the same in all conditions besides Battle-Scarred, so you can opt for a cheaper version and be largely unable to tell the differe

The Paracord Knife itself is a great knife with an interesting blade design with two slits, but the main attraction is the handle. The handle is wrapped in paracord, which is a general-purpose utility cord useful for survival situations. It's a nice design that stands out from the other knife handles and this certainly sets it apart from the r

As for 2012, well, anyone who knows me well knows that I'm a Metro 2033 fanboy, so my most anticipated title is Metro: Last Light . I'm also a huge fan of Yakuza 3 meaning I'm stoked for Yakuza: Dead Souls , not to mention BioShock Infinite , Prey 2 , Alan Wake: Night Springs , Binary Domain , and Operation Raccoon City as my first Resident Evil game, not to mention I have a nice shiny PlayStation Vita First Edition bundle with my name on it. I also plan to play Mass Effect 3 but I'm trying to keep my hype meter low for that

Following intense subsequent pressure from the community on what was already a longstanding controversy, Twitch has banned most forms of gambling from the service , with the aforementioned crypto-gambling giant Stake.com being a named company that is no longer welcome on the streaming platform. This is enormous news for the company considering just how popular gambling streams are on the service, with streamers and fans on both sides of the argument continuing in intense deb

LambdaGeneration has now come full circle, returning to its website roots but with all the modern bells and whistles. "The concept for the new community platform is the same as the original website - it’s a place to share and discover Half-Life and Valve community content," Alex says. "I’m not a writer or journalist, the original website ran on WordPress. But I was always open to other mediums, so - in my head - turning it into a social platform felt like a natural progression.
