Matchmaking is more broken than ever, with a good dose of hackers. This game has gone to the dogs.

Being out of practice, playing with my smurf I was on the receiving end of poor quality players with foul and bitching mouths.

I was also called out for lag fragging, whatever that means.

Seeing that it is lockdown, this game had become part of the lockdown schools curriculum, and it isn't very enjoyable.

To be fair, you did queue with a DMG and MGE, once you start getting to DMG you start to play against LEM's and LE's. Odds are one of the LEM's were in a lobby with a SMFC, and that just brought a lot of other LEM's and Supremes.

As for players moving fast, I've been seeing it in MM, not sure why players are able to move faster these days, last time I played I played Dust 2 and every time there was someone who managed to get to long before me, picking me off with an AWP. Not even milliseconds, this was more of a situation where they were already waiting by the time I got to long. Usually from T when you had a long spawn it was easy, now its just not possible to get the peak anymore.

Perhaps they are Bhopping. That is my thinking. If they are doing it naturally - then ok. But if they are scripting - then they need to be taken out

I only started gaming again yesterday, but don't know what to play... CSGO is boring without people. For some reason, in lockdown, most are playing survival games. I loaded up Gwent last night and then I got lost in Thronebreaker to collect cards.

VALVE TEASES NEW IN-GAME STATS COMING TO CSGO
...

Those 3 symbols in the left do depict something interesting which Valve might culminate into the game in the near future.

As reported earlier by win.gg , If we do some digging along with a bit of self-determination, the first symbol is a Chicken, where we might be expecting a series of missions to gain a trivial amount of XP like we came across during the Operation Shattered Web. The second one does resemble a “Stat counter” symbol as noticed in other genres where we might stand a chance to keep tabs on our performance figures in-game. The third symbol might astonish the fans from Riot’s League of Legends where they often use it to report bugs from the game. Along with reporting cheaters and griefers, the community may get a chance to report some server bugs as well.

Daily quests, wow, Valve, that is like groundbreaking... Uhm, it was possible to view your stats in the menu back in the day... Oh my, another report button, BTW, why not FIX the broken matchmaking and the broken skill ceiling which is occupied with hacksorz? Not to mention that we could also report servers back in the day.

It seems Valve wants to play dress-up with CSGO. I still believe that F2P wrecked the game.

CSGO pro scene community is turning into a circus,


CS:GO competition winners banned for cheating
Two Counter-Strike: Global Offensive pros have been banned from esports organisation FaceIt's events after it was discovered they had cheated in a competition.

The players – Woldes and Jezayyy – won the Red Bull Flick Finland National Final but their prizes were taken away after fans noticed strange crosshair movement. In a video on YouTube, it's clear that the duo was using some kind of hacks in a match against Elias "Jamppi" Olkkonen and Aleksi "allu" Jalli.

These bad actors went undetected by the game's anti-cheat measures.

"Today the two players have been banned following a technical update pushed this morning by our infrastructure team," FaceIt wrote in a statement.

"Unfortunately, due to a technical issue introduced by last week's release, information on a few types of cheat detections was not temporarily available within our infrastructure by our Anti-Cheat operation team.

"This lack of visibility and the fact that those types of detections were not yet managed with any immediate and automated “kick & ban” strategy, created a delay for the two players to be banned (alongside 80 other players involved in other competitions across the FACEIT platform) ."

at least these two were caught, but it gives an indication to FACEIT and ESEA being occupied with malicious players. The fact that no LAN events are taking place compromised the game's integrity.

Even the best of teams in the history of CSGO are tainted with hacks or other illegal activities.

I now have a full new rig and a high Hz monitor so I should be Supreme by Wednesday.

You need to do like all of the other Supremes, add your PC specs to your Steam profile and list your road to Global. Then enable your comment section for public participation.

Focus more on the number of RGB lights. People don't get the hardware part....
