The topic at hand is a community-shared video from the popular game Counter-Strike. The video, interestingly titled ‘no scope ace (im a noob)’, shares a unique in-game moment showcasing an impressive feat by a self-proclaimed newbie.

Summary

  • The post incites amused surprise from the community, illuminating a shared understanding that this ‘no scope ace’ is not typical of a newbie.
  • Comments made by players show skepticism about the authenticity of the play, with some expressing doubt that it was even intentional.
  • Many comments laughingly suggest that bagelislurking’s success was the equivalent of ‘acing a test without studying’.

Community Reactions

There is a palpable sense of community camaraderie in reactions to this post. The sentiment of humour and surprise is repeated throughout, as seen by LapisW’s remark, ‘I doubt they expected the scar lol’ and msupz’s endorsement, ‘who giiiiives a shit if you are a noob. You just embarrassed those guys like you’ve been playing for years.’

The Sense of Achievement and Recognition

The post also highlights a phenomenon common in gaming – gatekeeping, as to who can and cannot claim achievement. In GGDadLife’s comment, he jokingly downplays the play: ‘Equivalent to acing bots.’ There is, however, recognition that this was a legitimate accomplishment, with RoboGen123’s comment chiming in that such clips could earn you the title of a ‘cheater,’ even though you play legit.

Doubts and Scepticism

However, this unanimous jubilation was not without its doubters. A sprinkle of skepticism towards the noob’s achievement was observed. FutureText questions whether this play was even intentional, suggesting bewilderment at the scale of this feat for a self-proclaimed newbie. Furthermore, eagengabriel posits that this achievement might not be as impressive, considering nobody seemed to warn each other about the ‘deranged auto’ on the loose.

All in all, it’s clear the community was not just ‘blown away’ but also ‘fired up’ over this play. With humor, praise, and skepticism all shaken up in this cocktail of reactions, one thing is certain – bagelislurking’s performance echoes loudly in the halls of the Counter-Strike subreddit.
