CSGO Sticky thread

The CSGO servers appear empty lately. Also can't find a match with other lower-ranked players like myself so I don't bother with competitive mode anymore.

What's the recommended total sensitivity for 1920 x 1080?
 
Check out some of the pro's settings. Just search for 1920x1080

Seems like with 400 dpi, their sensitivity ranges between 1 and 3.5.

I am not touching CSGO for a while. Just don't feel like having to play a game where most of the player base is toxic is worth it anymore.

In the latest update Valve took the position to take griefing from now on seriously, so I do expect it to be abused. Hacks already released for doing just this...

Sadly makes it easier to get someone that isn't a griefer banned. It sucks that the game is in the state it is in. Someone might flash their team by mistake and get banned because some random Overwatch reviewers decided that accidents are intentional.
 
Got reported for a lucky kill through smoke on casual so yeah people are toxic.

A part of that is the weather probably...the last thing I want to do after sitting at my computer all day is freeze some more at night. I'd guess that goes for other people also.

From the amount of time you are available for CSGO you must have then moved to the Antarctic.
 
Just tried DM for the first time after not playing for two months. Nice and painful to get back into the swing of things
 
Played my first game in a while today. 100% got a ban on the way. Words were exchanged. I got blocked. Molie hit the floor intentionally. "Team mate" stood in molly (intentionally, hoping he dies) and proceeded to continues shouting. Clear cut griefing. See the game in 40/50 days again. Should start recording this kind of stuff, not like it has any effect in the long term.
 
So it seems Valve is really intent on the ability to purchase 'unlimited' grenades and being able to drop it to team mates. This will be a huge meta change, IF it is done. They even dubbed a new player meta, "utility expert", meaning a player which is stocked up on nades by other players to execute nade strategies.

I am not playing this game any more as I have 'better' things to do, so this doesn't impact how I am currently experiencing the game meta, but this is a risky move especially to come to tournaments which is already abused with exploits.

It is cool to test new ideas in CS, it has been done many a time, sometimes it sticks other times it doesn't. BTW, the pro players aren't keen on the idea, so it could be Valve trolling the idea, which they have also done many a time... Yet, no Source 2.

Personally, I think Valve is in a conundrum. CSGO is tied to an extraordinary high value digital inventory that it's blocks a new CSGO. Now CSGO already contains Source 2 code BTW, but the game still runs on the Source engine. Maps can already be made in 'Source 2' which is compatible with Source, so why not the change? I think it has to do with the inventory.

There is so much cheating taking place in this game now and in the pro scene that I have lost interest. I am not even surprised that teams which excelled online is doing bad in LAN events...
 
People still play CSGO? By now I have enough rust on my CSGO skill to put me back in Silver again

More people will now play CSGO since the LAN tournaments are returning. The available and accessible leagues has also grown in SA. I am actually watching Incredible Connection's All Star Gaming competition now. Ladies are more welcome than ever... the more people watch the game, the more people play the game.

Still caters to the younger audience. I think my time has come and gone. So yeah...
 
CSGO is nine years old today, or yesterday, unsure since timezone and all that. I don't know what to say other than COD Warzone getting a new anticheat.
 
CSGO aged ok all things considered

Still, its age is showing. Valve is simply too comfortable with the Steam Marketplace as a cash cow for further innovation. They know CSGO's anti-cheat is crap, but they insist on it because it is their own invention. All what the game really has left going is competitive e-sports, and even that is muddied in illicit activities, but Valve don't care, they have stickers to sell. It takes a slump, and guess what, a new Operation. Trades slow down, new cases, etc... awesome.

I can't really fault them, I would have a beer with overlord GabeN any time.

Would have loved something new for 9 years... from what Valve is suggesting in their social media, they want the game to become more Valorant like, which is kinda okay, since Valorant copied much of CSGO, and Overwatch, all of which was successful and appreciated by the gaming community.
 
Last night my game would stutter when there were too many people or grenades thrown for some reason. I've been playing the game for years on this same PC without issues. Internet was fine with no packet loss. In-game ping of 5.

Any bug that I should be aware of?

Nothing else was open in the background, even then, that isn't was never a problem.

I have checked the game integrity today and two files were re-acquired so perhaps it was that. Will only be able to check tonight.
