They should just have made it a public beta instead of calling it a finalized release.

Personally, I miss Practice mode with friends and bots the most. I don't care for the people online.

No, it doesn't. Not with friends. They get disconnected and bot difficulty can't be changed either. The skill command does nothing.

Last I checked there is still practice with bots, and community servers

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago

Community servers don't work yet. They haven't released the server files.

Did they forget that failed CCG that Valve was trying? Pretty sure that went into Mostly Negative for a bit too.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Lol Artefact. I did forget about that

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Yea, I forgot the name too, that's why I didn't name it. xD

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Never forget :-(

It was a great concept too, such a shame they killed it with monetization

I get so annoyed with the game. Constant stuttering and lagging.

And it's completely wrong of them to merge the CS2 reviews into the cs go reviews and remove cs go. Not sure who thought that was a good idea.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Wait did they really merge the cs1 (meaning the game released in 2000) reviews or do you mean the csgo by cs1?

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (3 children)

Ah sorry. They merged cs go reviews into cs 2.

And they removed cs go so it's not possible to play it anymore. We are all forced to play cs 2 or nothing now. In my case, I can't play since it's so laggy so I just lost a game I paid for and had 1000 hours in.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Oh I see, I personally haven't had any performance issues and think the game looks gorgeous right now but to be honest I only played CS2 for like an hour and haven't been playing csgo since they removed Iris from the competitive matchmaking. So I am not really the best judge for the game's quality.

Merging reviews is really dubious though, I can kinda understand it as they replaced csgo's store page with CS2's but adding CS2 as a seperate game and adding it to the libraries of csgo owners would've been the better solution imo. I guess they didn't want to bother with making csgo inventory tab compatible with the cs2 game.

Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

are you on Linux? performance is absurdly bad on Linux...

Works fine for me on my end (Arch + Nvidia 3090).

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Completey freezes a few seconds after I open it (arch + 3050ti), even just in the main menu, requiring a full restart.

[–] [email protected] -5 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I was hopping ng for something a bit more modernized, like ADS for every gun, and larger, better maps. It still feels 20 years old.

[–] [email protected] 21 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Then it wouldn't be CS. There'd be no point playing it instead or something like R6

[–] [email protected] -2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yes, exactly. I'll play other games and so will many others. There are enough CS players still playing to make sustaining it worthwhile, but it won't win over many new players when it feels extremely dated to play.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

CSGO felt even more outdated and was still consistently growing

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago (1 children)

If ADS and big maps is what you want then you want a fundamentally different game. Just play something else.
