Worth it for newbies?

[Spesful]

Wanna give this game a try with my friend for fun and whatnot, but I've heard some pretty bad stuff about it, notably bad servers and cheaters.
P.S I'm genuinely asking, not baiting that the game is bad or w/e.

hi, thanks for asking why do I play this game.

Main reason I play CSGO/CS2 is to collect high tier service medals as a hobby. I'm an untradable rare steam community item collector, collecting like tf2 genuine tournament medals and csgo purples/pinks/reds is like an hobby for me because I have nothing to do with.

I really don't like competitive and most of gamemodes because most of the cs community starts to harass me for no reason so I'm mostly farming XP on empty deathmatch and casual servers.

best regards.

very interesting

I genuinely like counter strike on its formula, so I'll enjoy this game.

The high ping? I just limit matchmaking by the lowest ping, not a problem for me.

The loadout? Okay concept, i dont like using scout so i take both M4s, however mid tier is seriously limited, and valve said they wouldn't mind adding new guns. Maybe more slots are needed in the future.

I dont have issues with the game performance ever since the game managed to recognise i have several available cores on my cpu, but performance is slower than csgo.

The ranked wipe was expectable, and thus matchmaking is all over the place as the global elite gamers attempt to reclaim their previous rank.

the cheating encounters FOR ME (Id say i have a decent trust factor) have been pretty much the same since CSGO, (cheating is a still a problem).
I think the ramp up of cheating accusations with CS2 may be a product of the mess that is current matchmaking.


In all honesty, imo the game just lacks content (excluding the netcoding wizardry that is going on, I'd rather not comment than pretending I know what im talking about).
For a lot of ppl comp is fine but that aint enough.


Valve announced the game too soon.

Hope thats answers ur question

Altho the game has some upsides like the nade cam in practise even tho practise often bugs and doesn't count infinite ammo or nade cam I think valve tried to make guns more realistic by adding those cool gun blasts yet if you play with p 90 or other gun you can't see half of your screen because of them Wingman has been ruined on wingman there are only the WORST maps with inferno being the average one And if you thought "hmmm they propably ruined the competetive too" YOU WOULD BE CORRECT they deleted the ranks and now a silver 2 can play with a global

The day before yesterday was one of the beat funniest days of this year for me Yesterday

What are you smoking? This game runs great on mediocre computer. Solid 300 fps, no fluctuations and no stutters @ 1080p.

Great post. My thoughts exactly, except I haven't had many cheaters compared to CS:GO's hayday when 1-2 out of 10 matches had cheaters. "One or more players have been permanently banned from CS:GO"-pop ups in the main menu were pretty normal sight on weekly basis.
Here, have award.
