Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

    @BalynokB @s1mpleO @CSGO stats wise its actually not even that ct sided of a major you know, and ancient is less ct sided than overpass AND mirage so far a lot of it is confirmation bias that doesnt mean a1s couldnt use a nerf, but the issue is overblown imho

  • typhoidX typhoidX (@typhoidX) reported

    @Pataramesh The problem is that the moment one even launches vs early warning satellites, the opponent's counter strike forces would go on alert. When 1st strike warheads are inevitably detected by the opponent's ground based OTH radars, 2nd strike is launched before the 1st strike lands.

    CSGO - 120 FPS avg FIFA 22 - 200 FPS Avg If i shutdown or restart my laptop, FPS again becomes very low....I am lost now and don't know what to do. I did read couple of thread online that suggested to revert to a previous BIOS version as the new ones are causing some problems

  • MarkOwnsUrFace Mark Francis (@MarkOwnsUrFace) reported

    @SnakeBiteFPS I don’t watch CSGO too much but when I do, I don’t see any lag outs. So that’s one thing that comes to mind for me. Also, it seems to me like they keep iterating on the same game instead of making new games every year which I think is good too.

  • Ashiki69 Ashiki (@Ashiki69) reported

    @s1mpleO @CSGO More like the m4 is just ridiculously broken

  • TerminallyDank Cheez-it enjoyer (@TerminallyDank) reported

    @s1mpleO @CSGO The problem is actually the M4A1-S

  • vermanikhil679 Nikhil Verma (@vermanikhil679) reported

    @CSGO Fix your game

  • WARFAREMCHINE Victor Suares 🇦🇷 (@WARFAREMCHINE) reported

    @redheadad82 @Battlefield It's kinda dumb spect a game where had full physical and destruction interactivity while 128 players with thousands of actions occurring at same time on the same space of the map Have the same problems of a game what have a less dinámic environment than a counter strike 1.6 map

  • emerson_gritz Gritz (@emerson_gritz) reported

    @s1mpleO @CSGO m4a1-s broken... return SG VALVE

  • Mezurashii5 Mezu5 (@Mezurashii5) reported

    @Jarek_Dragon The problem I have with VR is that it seems like the standard has become to call VR shooters just "FPS", like "yeah Pavlov is basically identical to CSGO" Just give it a different name. VR Shooter, VRS for short, would work fine.

  • nicholastw007 Nicholas Williams (@nicholastw007) reported

    @A_dmg04 imo this is leaving a bad taste because it’s combination with the larger issue at hand. Every game that’s lasted a long time (think WoW, CSGO, etc) don’t cater to the casual player. They make content for the dedicated player with avenues of getting new players there.

  • CtHStarki Arian Haliti (@CtHStarki) reported

    @CSGO Counter strike still has 64 tick servers and a ****** VAC system. Stfu about sound and fix the game or make a new one u muppets.

  • ChronoHowler Chrono (@ChronoHowler) reported

    @TheMightyBaloon @TomMatthiesen @NazAletaha CSGO majors, Single elimination playoffs after two stages of swiss. CSGO also uses GSL into single elimination quite a bit. Fits what riot is looking for, more games having high stakes. It is a bad take from John but single elimination isn't the biggest issue it's group stage

  • nevereverlean smokecolibri (@nevereverlean) reported

    @jamesbardolph @CSGO Kazakhstan's main problem - ping, all these years we just listening the promises that CIS would get more servers. Apparently, not.

  • gbl1995 Gabriel Mota 🇾🇪 (@gbl1995) reported

    @s1mpleO @vini @CSGO this gun's broken bro

  • Mauricio_moura8 Maurício do Boné (@Mauricio_moura8) reported

    @Lenny_Ieonard @CSGO If you can't see the approach of that play knowing their opponents economy and setup, the problem is on your understanding of the game

  • Mishaniz Logan Mish 🗝️ (@Mishaniz) reported

    @MrAlanCooper Everyone saying "but what about email" people aren't setting up or choosing servers, they're choosing a service provider. Contemporary CS:GO and TF2 both do their best to hide the server browser and funnel you into official matchmaking

  • oJo_Face oJo (@oJo_Face) reported

    one of my current goals is to get hired as a GFX designer at a cs:go website, though i wouldn't work for skinbaron in a million years. The website is old, outdated, slow and generally garbage, fix your **** already @SkinBaronEN

  • JoYolandaaa Yolandaaa (@JoYolandaaa) reported

    @CSGO Why is steam market broken, Timed out for 6 hours? Im not a robot... :(

  • MamaLuigi714 Mama Luigi (@MamaLuigi714) reported

    @REMELLgg @CSGO Esports while in Global, there's a bunch of cheaters and the overall matchmaking experience is just completely broken

  • Gabrielheath20 Gabriel heath (@Gabrielheath20) reported

    @Ivhryy @TSMViss @ImperialHal There is rules & there are exceptions. Apex has broken all the rules (as has CSGO) for consistency of player base, but that doesn’t make their consistency the base of what other games can do. Most games do not have a 4 year stint as a top played/streamed game.

    @CSGO Why is Steam market broken timed out for 6 hours? Good ****

  • nnvckk Nick (@nnvckk) reported

    @cs_arbitter @pratyushagarwa @CSGO biased crowd not the problem, they're just insanely obnoxious, and not just at hype moments which is what makes a crowd good but just nonstop screaming and yelling. not to mention the insanely biased casters.

  • ivancassanec Ivan (@ivancassanec) reported

    @ishusingh99 @CSGO In 10 years of the game there has never been a major in BR. 10 years playing with no support. There were championships in so many countries with local teams, we never complained. now the world is learning what true support is. What is the problem rooting for the local team?

    @YourCDLPal The problem with COD isn't the games. It's the CDL. And not that franchising is entirely a bad thing. It's just that they prefired it for cod. Its kinda what Valorant and CSGO are going through. But they'll be better off because they have the viewership.
