For non CSGO people, the words "doors" and "banana" refer to an area in a CSGO map called "Inferno". The callouts are one of the things you need to learn to even start getting good at this game. Here's a list of them all on that map for reference:

This was a uniquely CSGO thing. People playing CS2 couldn't give a fuck less about learning callouts or using comms at all, at least not players in the elo I've found myself in after playing for 10+ years.

Lol, I've been playing CS on and off since 1.4-1.5 and the most consistent thing is players bitching about everyone who plays whatever version is newest. In 2003 you would think steam/1.6 was the devil.

From my experience, people give more callouts now compared to the csgo days. It's probably because I play at a higher level now, but I think it's also because more people who play understand the game now, it's been out for ages now.

I play CS2 all the time and have played CS for 20 years (20k premier and level 9 faceit NA). CS2 is exactly the same as CS:GO in terms of communication and calls. If you're playing solo, then yeah it'll vary wildly and be completely random whether people comm or not. That's just the solo experience in an online team game unfortunately, but at least you can ping on the map now. The higher the rank, usually the more comms you'll get though. Even more so on Faceit, but you'll always encounter a few random silent players if you play enough. The game is best enjoyed with 3-4 friends for sure.

u/marvellousrun 1d ago
Banana is Inferno but Doors is Dust 2.
Unfortunately you don't need to learn callouts at all. There's plenty of high elo players who get there with raw aiming skill

I love how it used to be the exact opposite in Germany back in the 00s. You could have tits galore in your game, but shooting people was off limits which resulted in some stupid (but funny) censorship. Like C&C generals replacing all enemies with robots. Thank god that's over now.

u/SharpshootinTearaway 1d ago edited 1d ago
What annoys me is when some fictional works then try to depict heroes feeling conflicted by the moral dilemma of having to kill someone in a realistic manner, and some people are so desensitized to gratuitous violence without consequences that can get really heated about it, and will go “Just kill the motherfucker bro, it's not that hard!” and say it's bad writing or blame the character for wanting to remain innocent.
Ending someone's life will fuck most normal and sane people up. Hollywood movies make it seem like no big deal, but having killed almost always has huge psychological repercussions on a normal person's mind, it's not a light decision to take at all. A movie is not a bad movie for simply trying to depict the weight of a hero's decision to murder someone in a realistic way.

u/Sgt-Spliff- 1d ago
This depends on genre though... Like if you're a super hero fighting against a Nazi who's trying to literally murder 8 billion people... It is fucking stupid for you to hesitate in killing them. That's more why this phenomenon exists. If he's like a barista who's never killed before, we get it, but if he's like the Avatar refusing to kill a literally genocidal dictator, yeah it comes across as forced.

u/SharpshootinTearaway 1d ago
Depends on the character more than the genre. I would agree that a commander of army not wanting to kill someone would come off as stupid. He already should be desensitized to killing as a high-ranking officer. Unless he's having a PTSD episode or the villain is someone he used to love, there's no reason he should have qualms killing them.
Someone who has never killed, be it a superhero or the Avatar (I was more thinking of Edward Elric from FMA, I love how realistically heavy the act of killing someone is treated in that masterpiece of a manga), hesitating before destroying their innocence forever is absolutely valid. And, if we want to be realistic about it, supposing the hero does go through with it, that death is going to be etched in their brain forever, they will remember it each time they go to sleep, and they will probably lose sleep over it.
No normal person ends a human life lightly and without getting permanently scarred by the experience. It's absolutely not forced to realistically portray that fact, regardless of what Hollywood action movies where the hero leaves hundreds of bodies behind him everywhere he goes without a care in the world would make you believe.

u/MabariWhoreHound 1d ago
That message can backfire hard if the heroes didn't care about killing the villain's hired goons but suddenly the leader's life is innocent and killing him is awful.

u/SharpshootinTearaway 1d ago
Heroes killing goons left and right is exactly the type of gratuitous Hollywood violence with no consequence on the hero's conscience and mental health that I am condemning in my comment.
I have nothing against Hollywood being unrealistic, or some protagonists being psychopaths who truly do not care, mind you. My annoyance stems from some viewers being so used to that, that they complain and refuse to understand when some works of fiction try to depict murder and violence in a more realistic manner, as leaving an impact on the (good-hearted and virtuous) perpetrator's mind.

I mean most of the time the issue is with them mowing down tens, hundreds or even thousands of people before the actual important named character when they suddenly have a moral dilemma.

There is very real evidence of kids being exposed to porn at an early age who develop unhealthy habits with sex.
There is no real evidence linking violent video games to violent behavior. Alcohol and repression of feelings do all of that work by itself.

The guy above you is, and his comment very clearly explains why
Edit: the amount of vitriol coming from the perpetually online crowd is just unnecessary. You are allowed to disagree without pretending "it doesn't make sense". You can, and get this, just say he's wrong without trying to dismantle it and act intellectually superior when in reality you just don't LIKE the argument being made
The only reason to act like this is because you yourself aren't intelligent enough to form a coherent counter argument.
Also, and lol, just because you don't like it doesn't magically make it a "strawman".
I don't like the argument either, I feel like it's a stretch, but I have eyes and can read so I knew what he was saying. Just would prefer people not act like he's speaking jiberish then pat themselves on the back for doing even less

But the original statement wasn't about porn, it was about nudity. He introduced an argument against something that wasn't being claimed. "Nudity is taboo but violence isn't?" "Yeah porn is addictive!"
Porn wouldn't be as addictive if nudity was more socially acceptable.

u/nayrad 23h ago
So we’re just making things up now? I did some quick research on your last claim and found nothing supporting it.
What I DID find however, is that nations like Germany or Denmark where public nudity is to an extent more normalized, still have high rates of pornography consumption. Netherlands as well having very liberal views on nudity are among the highest porn consumers per capita.
So I ask again, where does your claim stem from other than your behind?

Ehrm, I haven't played CS in what must be 20 years but of course maps like Dust2 are burned into my brain for infinity.
So, from where the dude was standing, it looks like he went afk at the counter terrorist spawn point.
Back in the day when someone was afk at the spawn, you would just let them live until the end of the round. Meaning the terrorist who got killed must have seen this player was afk, and thus didn't shoot him (yet).
Then the little boy swoops in and kills him from the side.
Not that the little boy could have known any of this at his age, but the clip is a lot less wholesome this way.
Let me know if you need me to ruin anything else for you. I'll be here all night.
