CSGO Sticky thread

Fulcrum29 said:
I see there are a new wave of complaints on the CSGO discussion boards. Overwatch bans are coming in from left, right and centre. Either Overwatch has gone to the dogs or it is now being abused.

Who knows, maybe they are all cheaters.

Shame.

Overwatch was exploited by some dude who figured out how to get specific players banned and started offering it as a service. So Valve turned Overwatch off somewhere in November. Remember that game Cav shared where the okes went full-on from round 1? That was because they knew they wouldn't face any Overwatch consequences (they could still get banned from direct reports on their profile). The reddit post said it was all over the cheat forums that Valve had disabled Overwatch while they looked into it.

I noticed I stopped getting Overwatch XP and went looking for why - I think they turned it off while working on how to anonymise the demos more than just changing the player names.

I´ve been permanetly banned and I don't really know why. :: Counter-Strike 2 General Discussions

Well, I would like to explain a little bit about the events that my csgo account has experimented and how that could influence my "ban". The first event that tainted my account was when I was playing wingman mode with a friend (2 matches) and well, he was cheating (it should be noted that I...

Also dubious - he even says he injected stuff into the game but claims not to have been cheating. Wtf.

Also he got Overwatch'd in March so I'm pretty sure it's valid.

The main issue with Premier mode is that it will always end up with someone being bitter because a map of their choosing was not banned and that people don't actually like Mirage. I hate Mirage. Its an over played and over hyped map.

I want to play Faceit again, but time doesn't like me so I stick to Matchmaking, but I'm questioning my decisions every time I play MM and it ends with uneven games or teams mates that can't be bothered to speak to others and call out. Great callouts like "Oh no" really makes it hard to see where someone was killed. Then they proceed to get angry because I don't know where "Oh no" is.

I think essentially there isn't really a way to stop cheaters. Eventually Valorant will have to deal with the same issue, which will take away the appeal it currently has.

Premier mode has great potential for evolution. I wouldn’t be surprised if Valve add another skill group to it for the sake of encouraging team play because in its current format it benefits a full queue, and because it isn’t map dependent the queue times are much shorter, theoretically. I believe Premier mode is a step in the right direction for friends and clans.

I will be more than happy if this stays pay gated for keeping most cheaters out.

New CSGO Glitch that Crashes the Game Instantly » TalkEsport

The newly discovered glitches in CSGO instantly crash the game when executed properly by three players. Check out the full story on TalkEsport.

New Game Breaking Glitch Found In The New CSGO Update

We don’t recommend you to replicate this glitch since it can put your team at a strong disadvantage. But in case you decide to try it, you’ll need a minimum of two other players with you.

When playing on the T-side of Engage, if three players simultaneously use the new ‘Ping’ function on the rotating car near the T-spawn, the CSGO client instantly crashes for all of the players involved.

Valve, please fix.

I doubt it, a CSGO discussion board moderator publicly stated today that the stats show that you will only encounter one cheater per every 40 MM games you play. He also mentioned that it is mental gymnastics that players believe that others are cheating, and apparently Trust Factor works as intended. They can't however publish the stats or tell the community how TF works...

Seems like MM is a steaming pile of crap with no prospect of ever being fixed. His stats is also bullshit.

I have around 2000 MM matches under my belt, that would that I have only encountered around 50 cheaters in CSGO, and going by the moderator's arguments it is a small group within the community with multiple alts on which they cheat.

Here is the thread,

if cheating is fun .. :: Counter-Strike 2 General Discussions

why do cheaters insist on using vac secured servers if they can use vac free servers to enjoy their cheating amongs themselves without any consequences ?, seems to me "fun" is just an exuse for failure

and to quote what he said about the stats,

Difference being, lying about this is gonna bite you in the ass. Rest assured those numbers are as truthful as they can be. It's basically 101 Business Philopshy at Valve.

Finally managed to derank, rank up again, derank and rank up again. Either I'm missing something or there is a lot of dodgy accounts in DMG.
 
So we had a good one and then get klapped by a top fragging nova 4 and mg2 accounts. This game....
