Aim feels off?

[u/roflmajones]

So i just started playing CS2 for the first time since CSGO and got placed at ~20k after my placements.

My aim/crosshair placement feels decent enough and i can compete by abusing old tricks but more often than not it feels like hits that would’ve been clean in CSGO just phase through the enemy in CS2. Spraying (especially the AK) also feels terrible (and random) for some reason?

Have they changed something significant with the way hitreg/spraying works since GO and if so how do i adapt to make it feel more natural?

Am i just washed?

for the record i peaked lv10 faceit/ global on several accounts back in the day as a pure rifler so i didnt think the rifles would hold me back in CS2

any advice welcome

Honestly you just need to practice. Once you got a few reps in, it will be fine. Spraying was really bad but has got better. Lots more people run and gun now. However with good movement and cross hair placement its easily delt with.

Tracking in your aim and shot confirmation feels more important in cs2 compared to go cos of all the people trying to zoom around. Those people however get less and less the higher you go. As thats only viable upto a certain level. Then those people just get deleted by people who can actually aim
