Since the Orange Box update and the updates after that, CSS has changed a lot with regards to hitboxes and recoil. Before the updates I played pro skill and most people would just burst and some would do the double tap (burst), which is tapping twice to get a smaller recoil than using the normal burst which uses 3 or 4 bullets. However, I started playing again and I noticed that the better players are using the double tap now.

Is it better to double tap?

    I usually Spray And Pray, which is probably why I don't do all that well.

Depends,

on how your style is...

I mean its a classic FPS which even these days people play it a lot even with the "hitboxes"

Double tap will bring more accuracy to your hits and most of the bullets will end at the target

Burst on the other hand need more movement on the mouse when you burst you need to move it to the opposite direction of the gun that burst.. :)

So close target i would say burst

far targets double tap!

  • well i do know the recoil patterns of the game however i'm curious why this is changed after the updates since now the most are using the double tap and they used to burst (i'm using double tap atm and it does work perfect (close and far range))

  • Maybe they wanted to be more accurate because before wasn't so accurate ? or with the hitboxes thing is better to be double tap than burst really this a question that we must ask it directly to the devs and get "inside" answer!
