*matches you with a cheater every second game*
That's why I stopped playing PC games. Too many cheaters.
CSGO has a reputation system that puts cheaters against cheaters thoughbeit
>>720712262Only if you play compslop.
>>720712202>>720712262It just means PCGAWDS are more skilled because they can still compete against cheaters.
>>720712308no that's just the ranking system
>>720712310>plays hyper competitive shooter>doesn't play rankedHuh? Are they cheating in surf or something?
>>720712262Only if you play valveslop
>>720712262>he doesn't know about Chronus>he doesn't know about XIM>he doesn't know about Strike Packs
>>720712308retard
>>720712348no, it's not.
Counter strike is such an unfun game that I'm suprised more people don't cheat.
>>720712202Cheaters are kill though
>>720712262nigger, im a PC boomer mostly, been raised on CS and DOTA since early 00s, my first console ever was a PS4 that i decided to try like 10 years agoanyway, i was always used that there will be a cheater here and there when playing all those PC games through the years, but i was surprised to find out how fucking popular those were in console games too. i remember playing warzone and apex legenfs with 2 other normie friends on ps4 during the covid times every evening for a while, and ive met a surprisingly huge amount of VERY fucking obvious cheaters. the console cope just doesnt fucking work
>>720712654is this why my games feel unironically kinda better in the last 24 hours wtf? is this real? im on a 8 games winning streak rn
>>720712619It's such an unfun game because of the cheaters
>>720712747Gotta be. I had no rage hackers so far which was something I had every other game
I haven't seen a cheater or anyone I could even suspect to be cheating in an online game for atleast 3 years, maybe more. Where do you people find all of them?
>>720712747>>720713091frogslop did not read, please ban this avatar user
>>720712308Trust factor didn't work untill recently, I honestly doubt it does now.
>>720713113jannies work for me, bum
>>720713101we are not all autistic freaks playing some dead esoteric "online" games with 4 people onlineliterally any-semi popular comp game has cheaters, it doesnt matter which one
>>720713101because to get any stars to buy shit for the armory pass its tied to score, if you are a retard chink that just wants money but you are dogshit and everyone knows in cs2 you gotta play like 500 hours to be somewhat competent it makes sense youd use some minor cheats
>>720713207I play Call of Duty on occasion and I haven't seen a cheater since Black Ops 2. I would hardly call Call of Duty a dead esoteric online game, as you put it. I play a lot of Tekken too and I haven't seen a cheater since around when Leroy released in Tekken 7. I will admit I don't play CS specifically, not since the CS:GO days anyways, but I especially don't see the issue in games with a votekick system. Just kick the cheater, you lose a round maybe but surely it's not the end of the world.
>>720713380>I play Call of Duty on occasion and I haven't seen a cheater since Black Ops 2.
>>720713380>but I especially don't see the issue in games with a votekick system>just kick the cheater on the other team broamazing post
>>720713458Why not? It worked back when I took the game semi seriously. Did they remove the votekick system or something? What's the problem?
>>720712202I just go on cs 1.5 anymore. Too many fucking cheaters, and I dont want to deal with having a 3rd party app to play the game.
>>720713524i REALLY need you to start thinking before posting, champ
>>720712202never happened to me after 1000+ hours>he killed me so hes a cheater
>>720713553well, fortunately, im not autistic, so not really an option
>>720713708Why? What did I not think through? It worked back when I played the game, hence why I'm asking if it doesn't work now and why, what's there to think about
>>720713761which part of "you cant kick cheaters on the enemy" team is hard for you to understand?
>>720712654I'll believe it when I see it>>720713524You're talking about different games, in ranked CS you can't votekick an enemy player, they have to get kicked by their own team (and that rarely happens for a number of reasons)
>>720713816>>720713851Damn, I'm pretty sure that was a possibility back in CS:GO but alright. Either way, my original point still stands, I guess CS2 in particular has more cheaters than all the other games I've played
>>720712202NEW VAC UPDATE FIXED EVERYTHING>no kernel level malware required>werkz on any os based valve
>>720713941>I'm pretty sure that was a possibility back in CS:GOdo you even think before you post?how the fuck would that EVER be possible, everyone will just kick the enemy and win the game if that was the case, holy shit, are you people mentally handicapped?
>>720714220Not if it requires more positive votes than there is players on one team
>>720714261than it would make it fucking useless anyway, wouldnt it?
>>720714280No, why would it?
>>720712202>hmm today i want to not have fun>i'm going to play a ranked multiplayer game which is designed for me to not have fun>wtf? it's working as intented and i'm not having fun? THE DEVS HAVE TO FIX THIS! /v/ HAS TO HEAR ABOUT IT!what was his mindset here?
>>720712654>the most calm and mundane exchange of words about the topic possible>'Cheat community is crying'he couldn't wait for a better screenshot?
>>720713941it's easier to spot cheaters in a 5v5 tactical environment than some cod/bf tdm clusterfuck
>>720714317The mindset of >Challenging myself in a fair competition and losing can be fun for the non-subhumanBut for people like you, all effort is "non-fun", which is a typical cheater mindset.
>>720713380>Call of Duty on occasion and I haven't seen a cheaterhahaaahahahaha
>>720714423no one i have ever seen who plays ranked multiplayer games has fun or is happy from it. complete misery, any game, any skill level. people get upset when this pattern is pointed out for some reason, like you're asking them to quit a drug addiction.
>>720712310cheater are everywhere You can find cheater in a game like scp sl
>>720714537there is a lot of miserable fucks but these cunts also tend to be the loudest and come to vent, not to game.>many addictstrue>nobody ever felt happiness from comp games, it is uncoceivablenot true
>>720714537only applies to solo queue, I have 1k hours in cs and all of it is premades with my friends and it's a blast
>>720714537yeah retard, thats why they play it, cos it only makes them sad and angry
>>720714690he is however right that there is addicts and schizophrenics chain-queueing 12 games a day - these people are often in a very special place of mind. They do exist, and they exist in nearly all skill levels.
>>720714537>no one i have ever seen who plays ranked multiplayer games has fun or is happy from itme with fighting games.
>>720714537sounds like /v/ in general
>>720714537At this point, my brain is hardwired to pain, can't think of anything else
>>720714365Actual hackers who make cheat programs are high IQ individuals.
>>720712202just play faceit, retard
>>720715771>full of smurf stacks>bro just give your ID to this third party video game site to you get less smurfs :)
>>720715862they never asked me for an ID
they need to just make it so there's a pajeet watching every game, or an ai. whichever is cheaper to run.
>>720712202>*matches you with a cheater every second game*not my problem
Just bizarre match making all around in this, had not played since before CS2, my matches I go against 15k premier rating mixed with 3k and 4k, then next match all 15k, then next match all 4k. Weird as fuck
>>720718578because it's calibrating your rating
>>720712308It also puts people who say slurs with cheaters which is not fair.
>>720712202*plays faceit*
>>720720093*matches with cheaters AND smurfs again*woah...
>>720720345>smurfsI often get back elo because the smurfs get banned.
>game has an invisible social credit system that will lock you in a ghetto with cheaters and suspend you outright if you're simply reported by other players enough(buying a shotgun is a common reason for reports)Fine, I'll still reinstall it.....
>>720717805that was more or less the case and it was a good system, they had Overwatch, same as in Dota, basically you could get a random game that had lots of reports as a player and "review" it, they send the to lets say 1000 players and see what the general consensus is, but i guess even that was too demanding for them since probably needed an actual valve person to doublecheck it and they are lazy niggers so they just removed it
>>720712202lose 5 games back to back then you can have cheaters on your team. forced EOMM is cancer
>>720720609i will also report you for buying a shotgun, shitterLITERALLY no reason to ever do it when mp9 exists
>>720720432they rarely get banned, I barely get any notifications for them despite there being opponents with brand new accs and <100 matches at 1.7-2.0 KD that any retard could see is a smurf
>>720720704The shotguns are better?
>>720720704only shitters bash shotties
>>720720837>>720721119>>720721185>>720721297Are you playing against bots? Not even Silvers are that bad.
>>720721597Have sex.
>>720714537I enjoy ranked a lot. With friends or when I get a team that vibes well, it's genuinely some of the most fun I've had with video games. Not a team that's great at the game or a guaranteed win, to be clear, but just a team that is enjoyable to play with. I feel like it's a very low IQ perspective to believe that because a loud minority vents about their losses and how much they hate a game that nobody can be having fun with it. Doubly so if your main source is /v/.I also don't understand why people assume that because someone isn't jumping for joy after a loss that they aren't having fun or enjoying the challenge. Most people aren't going to be smiling ear to ear and will likely bitch when they're locked in struggling to beat a tough boss in a single player game but you'd rightly get called retarded if you suggested they weren't enjoying themselves. The same behavior in a PvP game though and suddenly every armchair psychologist that despises PvP is there to say they're outright addicted and in complete misery.
>>720721816Why is your camera shaking when you shoot? Do you have parkinson?
>>720712202This is one game that needs kernel level anti-cheat. But Gabe won't put it in, that would ruin his whole tournament scam.
it's insane to me that there's actually hundres of thousands of cheaters in this game, they have their special forums and discord groups, and they pay money to be able to cheat some of these people pay A LOT for a lifetime service even, and i can never understand WHYback when 1.6 was still the most popular shooter on PC i used to download cheats once and played for few hours with it, but it was mostly just to fuck with people, but i got bored quickly and never used them again, i don't see the appealthis shit is weird and hilarious at the same time
>>720715017sure. but hack users are absolute retards
The whole game is made by liars and cheats.Valve screwed over the Artifact fanbase by cancelling the Artifact 2.0 beta without even allowing users to invite friends like they said they would in January 2021 and does not deserve your financial support for these gross consumer-unfriendly practices.
>>720720609>>720720837>>720721119>>720721167>>720721185i enjoyed watching all of these
You could set the shotgun in MW19 to slugs and it became a fun gun, but normalfags there SEETHED over it. Why do normalfags hate shotguns?
it always baffles me how everyone on this board is so fucking bad at this gamet. best player here
>>720720609>>720720837>>720721119>>720721167>>720721185>>720721297>>720721816based shotty chad
>>720722009>Artifact fanbase
Cool. Now post your elo.Yeah thought so brah
I play this crap few times a week to get cases and skins to buy real games.
>>720721954yeah at least 1.6 speedhackers were worth a chuckle, the modern cheater has just gaslit himself into thinking he's good and the only reason he loses is because everyone else cheats, so the moment he gets headshotted he can toggle on his own cheats with "good conscience"
>>720712202matchmaking is bad for PC shooters, the only choice should be community moderated servers and a sufficiently large player base that you aren't stuck with badmins in the few populated servers
>>720720609>buying a shotgun is a common reason for reportsIn what fucking region? XM is so good that it got nerfed last year, and it wasn't even anything about its gunplay values, just the cash reward.
>>720722238how much is the subscription?
>>720723067NA East.I can top frag with a shotgun and both teams will report me for griefing/cheating.
>>720715017akshually most cheats are made by 13 year old skiddiest. knower
>>720722238now post leetify, if you're under 60 util rating you're a cheater
>>720722238teach me your wars, im the ultimate choker, literally cant do the jump
>>720723712it's not great desu>>720723761if you're solo queue it's pure luck but if you're queued with friends idk what to tell you
>>720724721>60 aim>20 util>27knigga getting carried hard
>>720724721i only lose when queuing with friends since they are all worse than me, it even straight wont let as q together with half of them anymore cos too big mmr difference, but i mostly have to solo q after that to get my pts backi just cant fucking manage to jump over the 25k treshold, literally lose every promotion game also, 20-25k bracket feels like its the most hackers-filled one, by far
>>720724881having 80+ aim in 15k is easy lil bro>>720724984your best bet might be to add someone you enjoyed playing with>also, 20-25k bracket feels like its the most hackers-filled one, by farit just gets worse
>>720720609>not instantly reloading between shotsYour shotgun-fu is weak.
Why don't Counter Strike players return to 1.6?>Optimized to near perfection>Meta is still the same as always
>>720712747What's your premier rating? I've only started getting obvious cheaters at around 19k+ but before that the climb was silky smooth.
>>720725191>Meta is still the same as alwayslol no
>>720712202> Playing point and click adventures in 2025
>>720712262>Uneducated nigger doesnt know that console cheating has become so easy its even MORE common in some games then it is on PC.
>>720725241my friend came back to cs after a 2 year break and the placements sub-10k were all just hvh lol
>>720725354maybe depends by regionI took a 8yr break and started playing again recently. I started really low like at 7k but climbed to 20k in like 2weeks and now I'm grinding nade lineups again.Honestly if it wasn't for FILTHY FUCKING SLAVS screeching all the time I would rate the game a solid 9/10
>>72072524112k, i feel like it follow a horseshoe pattern, there were shitloads of actual, giga obvious cheaters in the shitter 3-5k brackter, literally spinning around the map and speeding, then it became alright and the more i reach 15k, the more im starting to notice them againcant imagine what it is at 20k+
>>720725191Why should CS players return to 1.6?
>>720725191cos 1.6 was fucking dogshit
>>720720714You can't comprehend that people who have never installed faceit before can just start at some point?Just as bad as people coping hard on people better than them being cheaters.>>720712202>>720712262>>720712308>>720712892>>720713553>>720714383>>720720345You wouldn't be able to spot a cheater at all and you are claiming everyone better than you is a cheater to soothe your ego.Get over yourselves.
>>720726136Every other game has a full blatant spinner, but okay.
What's that Plank? Plank says FPS games are for midwits with no inner monologue.
>>720726136>You can't comprehend that people who have never installed faceit before can just start at some point?yeah, with 0 matches played in the regular game they're just naturally talented that they go straight to faceit10 in 100 games with a 2.0kd
>>720726136>bro just has a good headset
>>720726345but johnny you have an inner dialogue, not monologue
>>720726478I haven't played in a long time so maybe I'm missing something but what the fuck is even happening in this? Dude with 65 ADR literally ignoring someone strafing around in front of him. It looks more like he's handicapped and trying to prefire the dude than cheating.
>>720726345>midwits with no inner monologue.ironicim also 100% sure you listen to metal
>>720726136You can go over your match history and see how many people got a VAC ban. I had a banned cheater in every third game
>>720727053I checked my on cstats and for me it was every 6-7 games and their scores were absolute dogshit, so either they got banned way after my games or they're just too bad to make use of subtle wallhack or aimbots
>>720722238>>720723761huh? i thought CS usually filters /v/edditors?
>>720726836he downloaded cheats and doesnt know how to use them, he aimlocks on the guy behind the wall
>>720728524>>720726478wait, do cheats(aim in particular) work with sniper scopes?
>>720720704>silver doesnt use shotty to farm moneyngmi
>almost make it to 5K>crater 7 games in a row despite hard carrying half of themI'm gonna drop below 3K again.
>>720721936I agree so much with this, they could make it a voluntary option to install the "malware" like "verified matchmaking or something".So many people don't understand, if the cheater has a brain you will never be able to tell, it's so easy to just use wallhacks to come off as a player with very fast reaction time, someone gets "caught" it's only because they are a retard.
>>720731729People who seem to be familair with the CS 2 cheating "scene" say, it's about 50% of all player who cheat at this point. I guess it's believable when there is no hardware surveillance, why wouldn't they?
CS is dead. The new maps are 100% gay ass bullshit and hostage maps are the worst in the fuckin world.
When I was playing at 24k elo it was literally multiple self admitted cheaters every game, that's why I stopped playing, most of them are on light cheats like radar hack until they get mad and turn on aim bot
>>720732354Hostage maps are inherently a bad design simply because Ts have the better weapons on top of the advantage of holding angles (well... not as big as the CSGO one)
>>720732505Yeah I think past 20 you want to switch to faceit
>>720725191I would if a hero at valve added match making to it
>>720712202I hate their system that the whole team gets punsihed if you accidentally play with a cheater THEY match you with, I got exiled to spic servers that were half bots and half beaners cheating, Then uninstalled forever
>>720720609>they didn't buy helmetslol deserved
>>720721816>>720721297>>720721185>>720721167>>720721119>>720720837>>720720609>name is different in every clip>noskinssmurfing on 13 year old Brazilians who just installed the game is not impressive
>>720734873>where yo Jordan's?lol
>>720712202most of the servers are literally [Bot]s, I don't believe the player counts.
>>720712654I wondered why I have been getting connection to VAC errors this weekend. I think it was because I had cheat engine opened for another game.
>>720735384retard
