  • Prmthzn_ Shade (@Prmthzn_) reported

    @xjskdnsl some spells are just too cancerous istg, but atm i have a problem with my graphic card on csgo so cant really play it

  • AB_LOOP loop🇩🇿 (@AB_LOOP) reported

    @KeO_csgo @JonzzC @valvesoftware i haven't tried that yet (i will and update ) but i didn't have to do that for csgo and other games so i just assumed that it wasn't the problem

  • Ryong_xiv Androo (@Ryong_xiv) reported

    holy **** valve PLEASE PLEASE fix csgo matchmaking it's actually worse than valorant mm Getting the most bogus ******* players They let anybody into global and immortal now sheesh

  • jdang003 JD (@jdang003) reported

    @416naru okay I had the same problem but i forgot the exact steps but - unncheck the 'Run this program as an administrator' in compatibility tab of csgo.exe in the game folder. This worked for me - launch commands -novid -nod3d9ex -console lmk if this works ill try to remember more

  • allahsavess SODAAAAAAAAA (@allahsavess) reported

    @NinjasSha @DonHaci Nah it shouldn’t be that bad. CSGO had a big cpu bottle neck. With better graphics, it should become a gpu issue

  • coreydrewbruce corey Bruce (@coreydrewbruce) reported

    @Looooouuuuuu @carbonatdcaffne @K3v1nNZ You kept saying csgo not cs2 Now that confusion is out of the way it looks like there is some issue but I would need to test it myself to see if there is an issue with proton or not for cs2

  • jklsinclair JohnnyChance (@jklsinclair) reported

    @sh9ce @dmg The trouble is there is no consensus, you're going to have people who prefer one or the other no matter what. I think the gems all look better, but if I had FN Pandora's and saph combo I'd want the more purple saph of CSGO.

  • EternalLobster Biggest Bird (@EternalLobster) reported

    @BossHCS @ZooL_Smith @CounterStrike I think the free case would be a good solution, offer it to everyone who had over 100 hours in csgo or earned a service medal, one free knife guaranteed, be a nice gift to long term players

  • essbrix No Name 👑 (@essbrix) reported

    @gu77ed @cantryde its something that they couldve changed within 10 - 15 minutes, by changing textures for awp to same as csgo. it would also take them 2 minutes to send out an official message. instead they let their overpaid dev team fix it over the span of 2+ full days. Big valve L

  • CTRLR6_ LH | CTRL (@CTRLR6_) reported

    @MutedR6 Honestly I think that's the biggest issue with this community. They think anyone over the age of 18 is an old man, when there are csgo players that are 30 slapping "young gunners" it's crazy. I feel you tho

  • ethanmcmanus420 Ethan McManus (@ethanmcmanus420) reported

    Hey i have question to why isnt my 1280x960 res showing up on my screen highest 4:3 res I can use is 1024x768 how do I fix I was using 1280x960 recently then I unplugged my computer and can’t use it now #CSGO

  • yt_mog Gejzberg (@yt_mog) reported

    @CounterStrike Will CS2 have it's own free version (Like CSGO nonprime), because if so playing on nonprime will be a big issue because almost every match will be cancelled because of VAC Live

  • stevens195_ ✪ stevens (@stevens195_) reported

    @BrNb0i @LobanjicaCS If no one says it's **** then Valve won't fix the game before beta ends and it will be **** on release as well. Why do you think CSGO beta is so much different than CSGO 1st release? Because people said the beta was ****

  • legendm81649574 Lavslo (@legendm81649574) reported

    For some reason Im having issues with Steam,the site doesn't load properly and i get a error telling me their having problems with the server,hope this doesn't revolve about csgo 2

  • MF_Kitten MF_Kitten (@MF_Kitten) reported

    @mazooter @ZooL_Smith I see a lot of salt from people who have built CSGO quirks and flaws into the marrow of their spine. "It's not broken in the exact way I know anymore! REEEEE!"

  • Andrei280199 Andrei (@Andrei280199) reported

    @CSGORoll Hi csgo roll are there any problems with the login? I can’t log in into my account

  • A__B Alex (@A__B) reported

    been buying csgo skins.. i have a problem but i’m not ready to accept it

  • EGl0ry raj (@EGl0ry) reported

    @416naru For me the problems occurred when I changed CSgo launch commands(like disabling full screen optimization, running as admin), I'd remove those if you have any and also clear launch commands from the game properties in steam

  • gladura_matt Matt Gladura (@gladura_matt) reported

    @RiddleRook Don't let it get to you, I have these exact problems with csgo. I've put over 1k hours in and still don't feel good about how I play. Both Val and CS are heavily mentality based. Hell, I'm extremely high ranked in cs right now while not even being in plat anymore. You got this

  • Zgutnugget John Smith (@Zgutnugget) reported

    @ZooL_Smith @CounterStrike the cs2 modes have csgo animations so they are broken

  • ColeGiese Colemander in Chief (@ColeGiese) reported

    @TrevorPreston11 hell yeah wide. I grew up on source games, used to play a lot of previous CS games and CSGO but haven’t played in a while. If I fix my pc you will catch me on CS2 upon release

  • RovkirHexusVT Rovkir Hexus | へ草す | Affiliate Keyboard Arc (@RovkirHexusVT) reported

    ok I think the input issues are just with ghostwire and apex, which is mildly infuriating. I just played a bit of csgo and didn't run into input issues. what? no, being dead most of the time has nothing to do with it

  • Arrrrash Arrrash (@Arrrrash) reported

    @BluesDank The problem is it isn’t really doing that. I’ve seen tons of people get in who were lapsed csgo players so it seems somewhat random. It’s not purely x players w most time in the last year get in or something that’s straight forward

  • JohnSmi72423788 John Smith (@JohnSmi72423788) reported

    @r_e_xcsgo @DonHaci Would make since cs2 prolly doesn't have dedicated servers the people playing on the stress test are prolly playing csgo servers which would explain the disconnect.

  • nich_sten Riot (@nich_sten) reported

    @Halo_VFX If it ain’t broke don’t fix it. CSGO is mechanically the best competitive FPS on the market. All it needed was a visual boost and technical upgrades

  • MaciejMarko Maciej Marko (@Maciaasty_) (@MaciejMarko) reported

    @HOUNGOUNGAGNE For me the solution is keeping recording software on the same monitor as csgo (for example on monitor 1 i have both and not CS on monitor 1 and software on monitor 2). Also if I have browser open some of the pages create input lag, e.g. csgofloat always and twitch sometimes

  • mikaeleengstrom Mikael Engström (@mikaeleengstrom) reported

    @CounterStrike I have 1800 hours in 2 years in csgo , i want to be a part on playing this game and help fix bugs :) comon! :)

  • king_azure_ KING AZURE (@king_azure_) reported

    all day yesterday i played CSGO and 3 boxes of Xanax is gone. Valve pls fix anti-cheat.

  • GogglesSnep MOW 🔜 MFF (@GogglesSnep) reported

    My computer should be able to run basically anything with zero issues. (R73700X/RTX2080) And yet I'll play something as simple as CSGO and have stuttering issues. Happens in Fortnite and CoD as well. Hell it happens in FF14 and randomly in HS too.

  • ScottieYT1 scottie (@ScottieYT1) reported

    my biggest problem with csgo is that the crosshair doesnt follow recoil, im so glad thats being fixed in cs2
