Is it CS2? Or is it me?

[Ghostie Boy -iwnl-]

First off, keep it civil. I know its a beta and i have confidence it will improve. It isnt the final game and being a ♥♥♥♥ isnt gonna fix anything. Im just genuinely looking for thoughts/opinions

I left CSGO around Master Guardian/Distinguished Master Guardian with 2.5k hours. Come over to CS2 and played for maybe 20ish hours and I feel like a silver. The problem is, I dont know if its me not being able to adjust to the new game, if the new game is THAT different and things arent the way they should be, or if its the people I play against (most of my games are against globals and supremes for some reason)

I feel like I can't hit a shot to save my life and I just keep dying in the dumbest ways. And im starting to wonder if its the game or if it's me because others play like it's csgo. And its frustrating as hell because I know I'm better than how i've been playing (not to sound cocky). I'm just tired of being frustrated already because something is off, i just don't know what

trust me, I have my moments. idk if I just dial in somehow or what, but I can make amazing plays and get kills, but then a couple rounds later, its back to being a silver.

So am I crazy? or is this happening for others as well?

Welcome to the land of the real

There's definitely some nebulus behavior regarding hit reg, peeking, lag, etc.

In CSGO cheaters had access to cheats that could manipulate all those things.

I think they might be here in CS2.

I'm talking, anti-aim. The most toxic cheat to ever exist.

You might be onto something tbh. But what is really strange to me is I havent encountered a blatant cheater in YEARS. and I still havent encountered one in CS2. No spinbotters or obvious aim hacks or anything. But it isnt out of the realm of possibility they are manipulating the server in some way I guess

I just can't tell if its quirks of the game or me. Some people have the same problems, others play like nothing changed

They def messed with the AK reset timer that im sure of. If its scren tearing or you feel like you're not getting a good fps (even though it says you are) try getting outta that VC in Discord or turning it off entirely..

Also dont be upset, I JUST won my 10 games after like..25(?) and im around a 4300 score when the next game I played I ran into a genuine SIlver 2 player and he had a score of 5000+. Long story short dont solo queue anymore lol

yea I've pretty much ruled out buying the AK. I can do better with a Galil xD and I havent been experiencing any crazy tearing that effects gameplay. Really only when its doing the little animation after half and at the end of the game

I know I shouldn't be upset. I've tried to keep in mind (and tell other people) "its just a beta. It will get better. This is NOT the final state of the game" but man it's hard. and I'm usually a pretty optimistic person haha The last 2 wins I need just keep escaping me. I've been 0-13'd idk how many times now. Maybe 10 or 12? It's just frustrating. I just cant wait to get any sort of score so I stop playing against globals as much. Assuming the score system works as intended.....

I'd be happy with 1 at this point

My global elite and faceit 10 friend got 11k elo after playing with full stack for a couple of days. I was suffering in solo queue for a week and got 3k. Not to mention the amount of dumb ♥♥♥♥ teammates who picked mirage and didn't know how to play and many ferrari peeks I died from.
