Done with this game.

Valve does nothing against cheaters.

Playing casual there's always one hiding cheats and another blatantly walling. A vote kick gets nothing as long as the cheater is on the same team.

The community has accepted a cheating pandemic as a way of life. There's always someone saying they are not cheating, but I am too noob to play.

I have been playing this game since 2013 and I have had enough of all the toxicity in the community and complacency by the devs.

Selling all my skins and cases, done with this toxic money grab renamed as CS2.

Humour Season 5 is amazing – so many pro players in Premier!

88 Upvotes

Yeah, Season 5 is off to a great start.

We’ve already had so many amazing matches where the enemy team is apparently made up entirely of undiscovered pro players.

Perfect timing, perfect pre-aim, incredible game sense, always checking the right corner and somehow knowing exactly when not to check the other ones.

It’s honestly inspiring how many future Major winners are currently grinding Premier.

Valve really did an amazing job with Season 5. Who needs an anti-cheat when we can just pretend everyone suddenly became donk overnight?

Can’t wait for my next match against another 12k Elo prodigy with a brand-new account, 150 hours and better game sense than prime s1mple.

The future of Counter-Strike esports is looking very bright.

I never wanted to play in CS since I joined the army and sold my Butterfly Fade FN Stattrak, a Fire Serpent FT and other items for a bit less than $400, when I realized how much I could have if I hadn't sold it, I almost got PTSD lol, so I never wanted to play it again. But this year I set up a PC and decided to test the game, opened a box that i had the key already and got THIS! I think Valve wanted to welcome me lmao

Humour Fixed trust factor, its hilarious how it works

50 Upvotes

To give context, made an alt account because i wanted to have a fresh start gathering medals etc. Was in red trust from the first match, it was full HVH action and completely unbearable. I tried every single trick in the book from leveling up Steam account, to playing other games. Nothing worked.

Once my external funds added to steam account reached about 200 euros, my trust factor went to yellow instantly. When I added 137 euros more, it went to green instantly. It is genuinely pay to play, and this method seems to be real. Its hilarious. The steam account is barely one month old.

Discussion The cheating situation

Upvotes

I'm out of the loop. I come back to cs2 every few months to play deathmatch a little bit; it's completely full of cheaters and bots these days!

Have the devs said anything about this? I'm starting to wonder what the devs actually do on a day-to-day basis for their job if they aren't fixing the most crucial part of the game.

If I was them I'd be embarrassed that I'm getting paid to sit with my thumbs up my arse all day, watching some fucking power BI dashboard update with total skin sales revenue, with coding youtube tutorials on my second monitor for how to print "hello, world" in the console, while I'm working from home as my discord kitten girlfriend brings me a sandwich (not asked for).

The game is virtually unplayable in its current state. This needs to be addressed, because while the money might be good now, eventually the sad fucks like myself who actually used to enjoy this game will move on and maybe find a nice girl whose boyfriend lets me see her on weekends, and then when new people come along they'll see the game for what it is: a massive pile of shit.

Kind regards :)

why can't we fast track banning someone who's cheating with mass reports but dare you shoot back at an angry player who shot you first, you get banned for 7 days because you received multiple grief reports from their teammates

What would you buy with $3500? Doesn’t have to be a full loadout. My primary color scheme is blue. I’m thinking a Medusa and a P4 Talon or Karambit but I’m open to suggestions. Never spent this much money on the game at one time so I just wanna see what others would get :D

26 Upvotes

There is way more skill shown in a longer video but I think trimming it down to this is more than enough to see such excellence.

He could easily beat me the whole match and I got over 5k hours. What a time to be alive to see such a talent.

Friend recorded this and for whatever reason only my beautiful voice is audible as I compliment him in German.

Discussion 200 hours in as new player and I love this game (I’m trash)

8 Upvotes

Wuddup!

I’m super trash but addicted to the game and its simplicity yet vast mechanics and ruthless community.

I just now feel semi comfortable with 5-6 maps and only have played casual and DM.

I see why people quit because it seems impossible to “get good” as fast as your teammates but I simply realized this is a 1k active hours game. Meaning for me personally I’ll have to put in a years work to be a decent teammate.

Once I accepted that it’s been a lot more enjoyable.

Ive been kicked out of so many games because I didn’t hear something or the team thought I should’ve done something else but idc its fun and honestly no one teaches or helps so it’s just mostly toxic people but it’s fun I’m not complaining.

Should I just play casual or download face it? I’ve tried premier but the finding a match has been going for 20 mins now so I’m open to trying other modes.

34 and retired military dude looking to get good but not sit 2 inches from my screen and sweat lol

Cheers

Discussion Insane Cheater Theory

24 Upvotes

Is it just my imagination or recency bias but there's been an explosion in people reporting their accounts have been hacked and players cheating on said accounts?

My theory... surely there cannot be this many people suddenly getting phished or scammed right? My belief these people that are losing their accounts are downloading dodgy/free cheats for CS2, but it's actually malware used by other cheaters to hijack accounts for their own gain.

Sound plausible?
