I just hope VAC is back to working and they can finally get rid of the cheaters. CS:GO was unbearable, every single match, be it casual or competitive, had at least one cheater.

[–] Zomg@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's definitely not every match, but okay...

I forgot that you could see through my eyes and experience my life, sorry...

Fuck off with your bullshit. A quick visit to the steam discussion forums and you'll see dozens of daily posts about this. The only people who gain something by dismissing real concerns of cheating are the cheaters themselves – are you a worthless cheater?

It is a serious problem but at least in my experience not even close to every match and they disagreed with your statment with anectotal evidence just like your statment so cut off the mean wording, that's uncalled for... Also it's just a game so no reason to call some kids worthless!

[–] Gabu@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

If you can't even play fair in a game, which has zero stakes on your life's success, then that shows a lack of basic morals and indicates you are completely worthless, and probably a drag on society. So no, I won't stop calling worthless scum worthless.

If you care so much about a fucking computer game your life is most likely a lot more worthless than any of these kids, cheating sucks but it's no reason to call a human being worthless, especially not someone who is most likely a teen or kid pushing bunderies!

  1. Counter Strike is a boomer game, most of the playerbase is made of adults. Drop the appeal to emotion by pretending it's a bunch of kids in a playground.

  2. Are you fucking illiterate?

  3. Lack of basic morals is more than enough reason to call worthless scum worthless. Are you worthless scum getting riled for being called out? Because that's what it seems like.

Trying to call everyone worthless who calls you out for your garbage takes reveals a lot about you, are you seriously going to pretend that CSGO players are all old or even adult?... You know what, I will take your advice and just block you cuz you don't seem like someone I want to interact with again!

[–] Gamey@feddit.de 0 points 1 year ago

I like CSGO but I still wish they would cut out the gambling garbage, shitty buisiness practises in their games is one of the few truly terrible things about Valve!

[–] owiseedoubleyou@lemmy.ml 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I have mixed feelings on it.

I like the improvements Source 2 has brought as well as the map-based ranking system.

It feels kind of rushed though. Many maps and gamemodes like arms race are missing and valve seems to have removed macOS support. The increase in graphical fidelity has caused performance to drop by half at least on my old-ass PC.

[–] Gamey@feddit.de 0 points 1 year ago

The lack of MacOS support isn't new, that's part of their Linux first strategy for a long time. They fear the Windows Store since it came out and Apples equavalent could be even more dangerous so they usually try not to support Apple devices properly.

Valve's shooters be like

I wish we'd get another Left 4 Dead, and while I don't feel like TF2 really needs a new game, it could probably do with a fresh coat of paint (like PBR materials).

[–] all-knight-party@kbin.run 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Goddamn, for real. Left 4 Dead 2 is one of my favorite games of all time, maybe even my favorite. Everything that's there adds to the experience and is finely tuned and crafted. It just plays so well that it's the only game that Ive played for over 200 hours and still go back to that has no meta progression whatsoever, aside from achievements I don't even chase.

[–] llii@feddit.de 0 points 1 year ago

that has no meta progression whatsoever

That's one of the reasons I liked it. Everyone has the same experience, there's no FOMO. It's just so pure.

Anyone know if you have to rewrite configs? Or is it easily transferred from the csgo config?

[–] schnokobaer@feddit.de 0 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

You can't transfer it entirely, could even crash your game from my friend's experience. Best pick out your most important commands, put them in an autoexec.cfg for CS2, and see what works and which commands have become invalid.
