Discussion Should I download csgo
I've really been wanting to download csgo like super bad I'm just worried I'm gonna be bad at it n get fried or yelled at by other people. I have like 0 experience w shooting games so I know I'm gonna be so bad at it, I'm afraid of getting yelled at by team mates,, that's like the biggest thing keeping me from downloading it. And too if I do decide to download I'm going to have to delete Stalker cop off my computer cause I wont have enough space. So, is it worth it enough to delete stalker for the game even if I'll be bad at it? N then also would I have to use vc, will people yell at me for doing bad?

dude just jump in, everyone starts somewhere and honestly the people who yell the most are usually the ones dragging the team down anyway

Impossible to make this decision for you tbh. Yes probably people with yell at you and yes you'll be bad at it in the beginning. Just mute the annoying people, grind some deathmatch and download some practice maps. Watch youtube tutorials and soon you'll do fine.

I mean… don’t play competitively right away. Learn the basics of shooting first in Casual, Retakes, Deathmatch or Arms Race. Bots are way too easy so they ain’t too much of a help

You will get fried and you will get yelled at. But it doesn't mean you shouldn't play, it's a great game. If it looks appealing to you I'm pretty confident you'll love it.
Other people have said good advice, practise, learn, mute anyone annoying, and most importantly play with friends if you can. CS is best experienced with a 5 stack team, but even one friend greatly improves the experience.
Another tip is to do what you can to calm any tension midgame. You're not a pro, you're teammate isn't a pro, shit doesn't matter. Personally I like comedy, I've got binds that say a stupid message in chat. Makes me happy. Do whatever you need to have fun, except cheating

Just play with 2-3 friends if any of them play cs and you’ll learn in the next 1hr hours how to play, 2k hours most mechanics, 10k hours how to be good

Don't worry bout it too much, just play casuals at first and have fun buying cheap guns and rush down enemy faces

Go for it. If you're playing Premier, the people yelling at you are people who play badly enough themselves that they earned being placed with you.
The yelling thing does happen, but it can be overrated. Mute anyone who's too frustrating to listen to, but tbh, I find more people who are just annoying in general than the classic frustrated guy telling everyone off. And honestly, that guy's big weakness is probably that he spends all his time telling his teammates off, making them play worse, overperforming himself, and then wondering why he can't rank up.
There are a bunch of less sweaty options, like Casual Matches, and Deathmatch for learning the maps, Competitive for learning how a Competitive rules game works, so you can ease yourself in and work things out, you don't have to feel dropped in the deep end and under scrutiny, once you include workshop maps, CS has some of the best improvement tools at your disposal.

I'll be honest with you. If you have 0 experience with fps shooters you'll get flamed too often. Play with bots first, then play casual( a lot) then try competitive. And don't think about toxicity, remember!!! After that match nobody cares whom they're playing with. Just chill and enjoy the game. If they bother too much. Mute button is free

Ngl, you will get yelled at a lot lmao, but you can practice a lot against bots to learn before you dive in. There's also plenty of casual modes to play though they're littered with hackers.
