>by far the most popular PC game on steam>nobody posts about itIs it all bots?
worse. its only eastern europeans and russians
bots, skin gamblers and cheaters.no worthwhile human being touches that game.
Nobody posts about it because theyre too busy playing it
What is there to post about it in the first place?
>>736355296Usually games have some interesting gameplay to talk about, not in this case I guess
>click on the other guy before he clicks on you>this is somehow interesting
You can’t even ADS bullets just go everywhere
>>736355441just like my quakes and unreal tournaments!
>>736355109It's too strict.
>play Battlefield>can come up with plan A, B, C, D on the spot depending on the situation>play counterstrike>have no idea if I should rush or wait, where to keep my crosshair
>>736355109"Counter Strike 2" is a terrible title. It gives me Skyrim 2 vibes
>>736355695why are you admitting to being stupid?
>>736355740It makes sense considering they want a "final" version of Counterstrike
>>736355796Maybe. Dead teammates always bitch when you make the wrong move.
>>736355109What is there to post about? It's all the same thing how there are stupid amount of cheaters and braindead retards who play for skins mostly.I exclusively play on faceit and it is the best multiplayer experience ever.
They perfected the game, it doesn't need stupid updates, meta changes, and retarded balancing to keep people talking about it, you can just play it.
>>736355695Make a plan and follow it through. Want to take B on dust 2? Go lower tunnels, flash+smoke mid, nade cat and push with a weapon that lets you move like a p90 or mac10 or auto shotty. Know where you can expect enemies (ie from lower tunnels) and anticipate them before pushing through. Prepared positions are more advantageous and you have cover while they come up from stairs.Learn grenade throws, they're generally easy to do like flashing long.You can also just stay with your team and be someone who helps a leading player. More bullets on a spot = more likely to kill. If someone peeks and gets killed you can anticipate where the killer is and use that to counter them. It's all about thinking what other players would do in the situation you are putting them in.
>>736357113I have over 2000 hours since 2014 and I’ve never learned a single smoke or flash toss.
>>736355406>Press button>Things happenCool game you got there, BRO. Psyche!
>>736355109Every comp match has been russian niggers, bots farm cases for free money no shit.
Lot of money laundering happens on steam, CS2 is the main game they use to launder
>>736355109basically an untaxed crypto-trading hub between third worlders and kids, with a game attached to it as a cover.
Yesterday there was 1.2 million players online but only 6000 were looking for a match.Numbers are very suspicious. Often times when I queue for casual I get a full bot lobby
>>736357442See I have 10000 hours since 2003, maybe that's the difference.
Anon, *nobody* plays CS because they enjoy it. They play it because they're retarded skin gambling addicts
>>736357113The problem is, play a game with a good team win, the next 2 you will be with a retarded team, that just Feed the snipers and complain or try to kick you if you try to sneak around instead doing retarded things
The game is only *really* popular among second world dudebro normies and there is not much to talk about anyway, people mostly talk about pro scene and skins lol
CS is a game for eurotrash and slavs.The gunplay is only thing it has going for it and it's not that great.The map design philosophy is garbage— it's a joke that its still considered competitive. It has worse design than modern CoD maps. It's literally just empty, narrow corridors with one or two exits.
>>736355109It's not even a video game anymore at this point, it's an NFT casino
Europeans need to stop projecting their CS experience and culture onto North America
>skins skins gambling gamblingman I miss the 1.6 days
>>736358360Win some lose some, try your best to make the most out of a bad situation.
>>736358282>They play it because they're retarded skin gambling addictsIf that were the case then nobody would play Valorant, which is the essentially just LGBT CS minus the gambling
>>736355339there were threads about new magazine mechanic, but like, supposedly it didn't change that much, also cs has a general thread on other board.There will be new threads when valve releases new gamemode, or creates and arcade tab like in dota 2 with custom gamemodes.
>>736358104that's cool statistic, but you do know how long matches take and how long the queue takes? you can do the math i think.
>>736358462Its simple and pure and thats all it has to be. So many modern fps have shit like giant names and health bars hovering over players screaming shoot here. Meanwhile in cs you guess if that pixel is a person before it headshots you
All the biggest games aren't talked about on here. Roblox, fortnite, COD, Fifa, Madden
>>736355109valve bots the numbers of each of their games that feature gambling. why wouldn't they?
>>736355406you can boil everything down to absurdity to make it sound unappealing, pseud
>>736355109Feel free to post all of the other modern shooters worth playing.>hero shooters>extraction shooters>battle royale>other tactical shooters but even MORE tacticalIt's all trash.
>>736355147It's actually almost exclusively Filipinos.
>>736361089I'm having fun with overwatch right now. I don't have to autistically concentrate like with a tac shooter and I can still carry with my aim and click on heads.
>>736355109When I was playing this and made threads on it someone would have a severe mental breakdown and spam the a bunch of webms claiming everyone was cheating, they'd do this for 10 straight hours. Of course moderation did nothing about this, but deletes video game threads regularly. So basically, the answer is its not discussed because moderation does not allow it.
>>736361376>I don't have to autistically concentrate like with a tac shooterI find OW much demanding in terms of focus
>>736361376>ability spam hero shooter with ugly diverse heroes and ugly blizzard artstyleNo thanks.
>>736355109There are no ugly women in there to complain about, so it would be off-topic on /v/.
>>736361393They are all cheating though. Majority of games ranked above silver involve cheaters
>>736355109I preferred day of defeat
>>736355109>posting instead of learning set nades and pixel peaksThe silver mind is fascinating.
why would I need to learn smokes and flashes when others can do it for me and I can just spend the money on an AWP instead
>>736355109The only fps games that get posted on /v/ now are exclusively to shit on them, because they all suck. There are zero good options.
>>736355109I mean there's not really much of a discussion to be had about the game but I can try>Maps you wish would come backFor me it's Abbey and Biome
smoke should be nerfed, it's too longspecially on casual play
>>736363963try throwing a grenade on it
>>736355109Siege is the best shooter on the market rn but /v/ won't admit it cause they have no friends to play with
>>736364216>it's good bro you just need friends to play it withLiterally every game. RSS is trash. See>>736361089>other tactical shooters but even MORE tactical
what's there to post
>>736363052>elevating yourself to the cheater bracket
>>736361393well they were right. cheating is rampant even among the "pro" scene. cs is just a gambling vehicle
>>736364332>multiplayer game requires coordination to work properlyshocking
>>736364367>even among the "pro" sceneyou mean they cheat on LAN?
>>736361579Same, and that's not even a difficult hero shooter. CS is simple as fuck and kinda chill in a way. No clutter on the screen other than molotovs and smokes, clean look, nobody flying in the air.
its one of my backlog games but i get lag when i play so i cant playi would be playing dota but in my rank no one pushes even though ive contextually learned thegame so ive been watching tourneys instead of all languages
>>736364367>Every good CS player is actually a cheaterPost your gameplay>Uhhh... um...... uhhh..... no!That's that I thought. Without a single exception, EVERY person who says this shit is terrible. They play like a retard, bumping into walls and missing every shot. Face it, you just aren't intelligent or coordinated enough for shooters.
>>736364684How does posting gameplay explain why “pro” players snap to players heads through walls and get vac banned
>>736364506yeah. they bring shit in mouses and other peripherals. it's been a thing since forever
>>736364814>snap to players heads through wallsThis is what I'm talking about. You're just a shitter who can't pre-aim>get vac bannedwho
>>736364684>lalalala reality can't realkeep living in the dream world where competitive fps games aren't filled to the brim with cheaters I guess
>>736365016When making a claim, you are expected to provide evidence.
>>736365061there's thousands of videos of blatant cheating one google search away; whatever I'll post you'll just disregard as "pre-aim" or other cope so what's even the point lmao
>>736355109>is it all botsworse, third worlders and gambling addicts
>>736355109skins ruined cs.
>>736365182>CS2 pros are all cheatersOkay, do you have proof>Umm... their gameplay looks suspicious to me, a peak silver 4Okay, but beyond that, what's your proof>Dude just look it up! It's right there for you too see, just like how the moon landing was fake and the earth is flat!Okay, got it. I accept your concession schizo. BTW, you never posted gameplay of your own, so I'm going to say I was right in guessing that you're a complete shitter.
>>736365350Skins ruined online gaming in general
>>736355695Counterstrike is autistic, dont listen to them
>>736365361>CS2 pros are all cheatershere's the problem - you're creating strawmen. I said cheating is rampant in cs even among the pro scene, not that they're all cheaters>peak silver 4another strawman>just look it up>doesn't. calls me a schizolearn to talk to people sperg lmao
>>736365491You have STILL not posted evidence of "rampant" cheating within the pro scene, nor have you posted your gameplay.>inb4 footage of some random tier 4 Russian "pro" or kqly
>>736355109along with league/dota/valorant it's the containment game for all the awful people that nobody wants to talk to or hear from.
>>736365583https://youtube.com/shorts/q-mUkapTBF0?si=xaB6Mej7nfRhfwTuhttps://m.youtube.com/watch?v=yi9FraAfkRg&pp=iggCQAE%3Dhttps://youtu.be/sA2P8jq94tE?si=5BwBpEj5C70Ds1G5>inb4 t-those atschkauly don't countaight bro
it may be a "perfected" game but I'm not willing to put in hours to learn all the shooting angles on every corner of every map
The playerbase is 90% balkans/russia. No really.
>>736355109/v/ really can't handle multiplayer games, being both friendless and bad at videogames. Only time multiplayer game threads get traction is to do a tortanic steamcharts thread
>>736365762KEEEEEEK you can't make it up>2014, some Indian nobody, and a literal who twitch streamer
>>736365419not wrong but its particularly egregious with cs and dota since the skins have a secondary market
>>736365865>some Indian nobodyThat's forsaken-sama for you buddy. The Legend who killed the indian scene in CS.
>>736355109the people who play this game ONLY play this game. why would they go to a general board about video games?
>>736365943Yeah that's what I know about CS pro cheating. A jeet retard with word.exe got a billion other jeets banned from the scene the first year his country was allowed to participate. Absolutely based.
There just isn't much to discuss about the game itself since it doesn't change much.
>>736365943I know who forsaken is, it's just funny that the only example of cheating from an actual pro he gave was, like I predicted, kqly, which happened over a decade ago. Nobody in any of the top teams on HLTV is cheating. Some random Russians competing over a $25 McDonalds gift card in a t4 FaceIt tournament, sure. So much for rampant.
>>736355109the only thing to talk about is how it's weird that CS still has the best feeling headshots in any video game
CS is for vatniksSiege is a much better competitive shooter
I'm still mad that I spent hours actually doing achievements in CS:GO and then Valve just decided to nuke them when they forced everyone to update it to CS2Why not keep the fucking achievements, it can't be that hard
>>736355109Do you want the real answer? It's investment simulator. Buy rare cases from the Steam market NOW
>>736366135gears of war sniper can't be beat
>>736366179Bro you don't believe this shit at all
>>736366232I'm not sure who ranks higher on the human trash scale, Pokemon scalpers or CS traders.
>>736365865>inb4 t-those atschkauly don't countlike in clockwork
they're addicted enough to play the game instead of posting about it
>>736366306I've got my retirement settled thanks to CSGO/CS2.
>>736366098>Nobody in any of the top teams on HLTV is cheating.Holy cope lmao
>>736366079biggest change to the game in years just happened with the ammo thing, really does change a lot since you cant autistically reload after every shot anymore, spamming through smokes has become more costly etc
>>736366438At the minimum they're sound soundpeaking by using headphones.
>>736366301Yes I do.I was posting in /r6g/ 10 years ago
>>736366315Post evidence of "rampant" cheating in the pro scene>Posts a video of a twitch thot and a decade-old incident>Umm this totally counts because...
>>736366503>you cant autistically reload after every shot anymoreThat was always bad and only ever done by retards. The ammo change screwed over silvers even more while not being that significant above 20k. M4a4 gets used a lot more, not much else.
>>736364998You don’t pre aim through walls you can’t shoot through and you wouldn’t unnaturally lock your cursor to someone as they shift walk through walls
>>736366503Like the other guy said, it was already good practice to not instantly reload like a retard but now it's just more blatant for absolute newshitters. It was basicaly a just nerf to the A1-S specifically without touching the weapon itself. Even the 15 bullet AWP isn't that big of a deal.
>>736367047In my silver games I’m seeing people die because they don’t reload with 5 bullets left
>>736367446honestly this, usually people dont reload when they should, or go into a fight with a gun with 5 shots. at the lower level
