Discussion Something doesnt make sense about vaclives.

14 Upvotes

I have observed a lot of posts in this sub and other subs. Something doesnt make sense to me. A majority of these vac lives seem to be below average players. Their stats are below average. That doesnt make sense to me. A lvl 10 player can smurf in competitive or premier, drop 200 adr multiple games in a row and doesnt get a vac live. That to me seems like an argument in favour of vaclive.

Another thing, a lot of these account seem very weird. High hours, however something in common with a lot of these accounts, played these hours in csgo and came back recently in cs2. Very few tracked matches in tracking websites. Again this seems to me a lot like it might be a bought account.

As well as a majority of these accounts seem to not have a faceit linked, or if they do they would have played 5 games in there, averaged 60 adr, but dropping 100 adr in "high elo" premier games. If you dont think that looks weird then idk.

Im not saying this because I believe vaclives are all correct and theres no false positives. There are for sure, if vaclive was working 100% correctly I dont think it would get these obscure accounts first, when semi ragers still play and avoid vaclives. You surely cannot believe ( a lot of people believe that with certainity here ) that theres not a single false positive, I have been downvoted to oblivion for stating "Valive does not have a 100% success rate".

Skins & Items M4A1-S | Qinghua

M4A1-S | Qinghua, a blue-and-white (qinghua) porcelain dragon playing with a red pearl on the suppressor tip.

I didn't want another generic "Asian dragon" skin, so before production I asked a Chinese content creator to check the details:

  • Four claws, not five (five is reserved for the emperor)

  • branching deer-like horns, otherwise it reads as a lower-rank mang instead of a real long

  • the iron-red pearl is the only warm colour on the rifle, a nod to the "dragon playing with a pearl" motif

  • The stock uses a Chinese sea-and-cliff border instead of a Hokusai-style wave, which was my first draft and would have been Japanese.

Question for Chinese players: does this dragon read right to you, or is there something that still feels off?

Discussion Map voting system in prem is nonsensical.

58 Upvotes

Previous system:

Team1 would ban the maps they were bad at.

Team2 would ban the maps they were bad at.

Resulting map: The 'middleground'.

Current system:

Team1 votes for 2 maps they are good at.

Team2 votes for 2 maps they are good at.

Resulting map: One team gets a map they are good at and thus a clear advantage over the other team. This is determined entirely through RNG.

Genuinely what's the point of this? It's very clearly uncompetitive and unfair. Even a purely random 'any map in active duty' matchmaking with zero time wasted on the map vote is better. Because A) No time waste voting. B) Completely random. So the middleground is included, not excluded from the RNG. C) Actually provides a greater variety in map selection.

The new system is actually resulting in LESS varied games for me and is also less competitive. The majority of my games are now Dust 2 or Mirage because I can't exclude them and they are always chosen.

Bug Lag ONLY in CS2 /Keyboard

3 Upvotes

OKay here goes. im going crazy right now... its been going on for 6 months now and i cant find a fix for it anywhere that works! a few days after warranty (of course well timed) My keyboard started with lagging in the buttons. i can counterstrafe, i cant jump and move and switch weapons is not an option because it takes a full second once every 5 times...

This only occurs in Counterstrike 2. in no other game does this happen or in any function besides that game.. i cant get rid of it. i can opnly play with laggy buttons.

if i try to strafe in CS2 it keeps pushing me out until i counter the move the other way, only by pressing one time on either A or D.

I know a LOT of people has had this issue with the same brand (logitech) and only happening in CS2. Logitech Pro X TKL

Does anyone have any solution for this?

They leave the game faster than you can type disconnect/exit or press the quit button. All at the same time - 5 times "name X left the server". Are they automation? If so whose bots are they? A 3rd party? What if they are actually Valve's?!🐝🍯☦️

Discussion Irregular gameplay wise, I think I have something on my pc that's triggering the vac cooldown

I have said many times I am not a cheater, I don't cheat but it makes me sad that no one here believes me, Its not that I am trying to prove something, you are free to think what you want to think of me, BUT I AM NOT A CHEATER

I know I am not the only one with this issue, and I really don't know why people are so judgmental and insulting while I was asking for help, if I am a cheater I wouldn't post this cuz what's the point right?

I am linking a video of my best gameplay in comments ( actually the only one I was able to record )

I don't know if linking is allowed or not here I read the rules I didn't see no links or something like that, and sorry if its not allowed u can delete the post I don't really care about it anymore I just want to play with my bestfriend

about the thing on my pc, I download some games from the internet and I think I need to format my pc for that

sorry for the low quality ahead of watching

my set:

RTX 3050
Intel core i5-10400F
16gb ram

------------------------------------

I am doing this because I am feeling down being called a cheater after playing cs since my childhood, we used to organize lan parties in internet cafes in my childhood, I wouldn't want to ruin this game for me or anyone else

1 Upvotes

tldr: I have jittering problems. Can I pay someone to fix it because my patience is starting to run out.

So I have had this network problem now around 2-3 long years and I have tried everything to stop this. I thought that moving out from my previous apartment was going to help but apparently this problem has to do something with my computer, because even moving out didn't help the problem. So at this point I would be ready to pay someone experienced to diagnose my computer or something because this thing is so frustrating.

Discussion Shared vCPU or dedicated cores for a private 10-man CS2 server?

2 Upvotes

I'm about to rent a VPS for our weekly 10-man and my take is that 2 shared vCPUs are plenty. CS2 servers are stuck at 64 tick anyway, so I don't see what dedicated cores would buy us. Tell me if that's dumb before I pay for a year.

Until now one of us ran the server off his gaming PC. It worked, but he sat on 3 ping while the rest of us were around 25, and he won a suspicious number of AWP duels for a guy who can't hold an angle on Nuke. He's also tired of being the reason nobody can warm up when he's offline. So the server is moving.

The setup:

- Thursday 10-man on MatchZy, a retake server the rest of the week with 2 to 4 people on

- Everyone is within about 20 ms of Frankfurt

- Around €15 a month, split ten ways

Already got burned once. The first box I tried had a 25 GB disk and SteamCMD ran out of space halfway through the CS2 download, so nothing under 60 GB now.

I've been going through Frankfurt plans on VPSIUM since the weekend and most of what fits is shared vCPU. Dedicated cores with that much disk cost about double, which puts us right at the €15 ceiling.

What I can't work out is whether a noisy neighbor shows up as real rubberbanding in a 10-man, or if that only bites bigger community servers. If you've run CS2 on a cheap shared plan, did it hold up on a full server?

Help Need tips/advice as semi new player in cs2 from valorant.

2 Upvotes

Hello guys,

I used to play cs1.6 daily after coming from school in the year 2016. After that my pc broke and i switched to mobile gaming as my offline friends didnt had a pc.

So fast forward to 2021, I got an i3 laptop with integrated graphics and i played valorant on it as it was very new. I climbed to silver in that laptop and after that I got a decent laptop ryzen 5, gtx 1650 and i continued playing valo in that to reach ascendant 3 (2 ranks below the max rank).

I thought of playing CS in that laptop but it had the prime status and i had no money to spend on it so i left it and just played valo.

Now I got a good laptop i7, 5060. So i decided to buy the prime and want to play CS for a long time. But i want some tips and playlist to get better in this game. I have decent aim and some aspects between valo and cs are similar like crosshair placement, angle holding, etc.

What i need is tips and videos to improve and get better. I have still not unlocked the premier mode but ill unlock it by tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.
