That's the thing about CSS, very non-newbie friendly.

Although after a couple of rounds you generally have enough match-end cash to buy a decent rifle.
It's all about learning the weapons and how they react, and learning how to control your mouse like a bloody rat in a split second.

VH should know. OHOHO

Seriously though, i never had these troubles when i started playing. If you just play like a bit of a douchebag for the first round (camp, stay back until they run to you) then you should have a nice amount of money to buy a good gun with.

It's a genuinely fun game, but just needs some getting used to.

And tf2 is one such game where you don't need to be good to have fun.

If someone is running around as a heavy then you just spawn as a sniper. You can easily kill them using the sniper rifle so it's fun thinking "yeah i just got that heavy!". Balance is what it is.
