On the contrary, I usually rush from spawn area, aiming to get to various areas quicker than the opposing team. Always switch to knife to start with, it helps you run faster, but have your main gun already scrolled to along the top so when the time comes for action you're just a mouse click away from getting your gun out.

Get to know the maps. On most maps there are a few good waiting places for CTs. If you're CT, think about the routes that Terrorists are going to be taking to get to their targets, and where you can see them on approach. Don't chase down the Terrorists so much when you've got a (nearly) complete team of CTs, let them come to you (I killed you a few times on some of the maps by sitting where I knew Terrorists would have to go)

Oh.. and don't crouch around so much! No need unless you've got suspicions someone is around the corner.

Oh.. and Get on TS, even if you can only listen

If you're Terrorist, work together, protect the guy with the bomb. Try and take alternate routes to the bomb zone (and alternate this) so that you're harder to predict, trying to keep the CTs off kilter.

This is my tactic also.

If you start with your gun out and immediately switch to knofe, pressing Q (default key mapping) will switch you back to your last used weapon so you can switch between gun and knife really quick.

Two things I have to make a conscious effort to do or I become crap...

1) fire in short bursts - it's so tempting just to hold the trigger down and spray everywhere and it doesn't work
2) If you can, crouch when shooting, it makes your shots more accurate.

I crouch / walk a lot so i can hear footsteps and dont make any of my own. I'm probably not a good person to watch for tips though .

The worst thing I do is OCD reloading. 30 rounds, fire 4, reload..... get shot in face :/

I'm the same when it comes to emptying the recycle bin on a computer.

I'm also partial to the odd flash bang, and a snipey rifle. I really cant get on with the shotguns, though sometimes I just fancy an SMG.

I don't use flashbangs or HE grenades anywhere near enough, although I managed a coupl eof sneaky nade kills last night.

Generally if I can afford it I'll either get the AK or M4, some ammo, and kevlar + helmet, and that's me set.

Occasionally I'll get the bullpup <sp?> or kreig things if it's a map where there's somewhere I can stand and pick people off from a distance (I'm not good with the AWP or scout).

That first one was superb. I swear it landed on Mark's head
