Valve creates cheating problem SO you play Faceit = Valve gets $$$$ from Faceit
Obviously Faceit is paying some sort of usage licence to use Counter Strike.. That is if Valve doesnt somehow secretly own Faceit.

But Valve created Vac live and Premier mode so why would player pay more money to play faceit? I think valve keeps the amount of cheaters on its server purposely high so that it encourages player to seek a more cheat free platform like faceit , and as a consequence Valve gets a % from faceit...

It another way for Valve to make even more money of a player that has already paid for prime. Its a SCAM.....

Well... like its explained in the post .... A licensing fee and or a percentage of the fees from premium players...


Do you think Valve is letting another company use and host CS on theier servers and make money from it , without charging a usage fee ?

Valve would sue if someone did the same without mnaking some sort of a deal first.

Faceits earnings are about 800.000€ per month, if Valve would take 50%, they would earn 400.000€ from this.
But they already earn about 50.000.000€ from cases being opened every month.
So this theory doesnt really make any sense atleast from a financial standpoint, because Valve would earn more trough Cases if there were less cheaters (because more cases will be opened) than they ever could trough Faceit.

Faceit makes 18.7 millions per year, 1.500.000 per month, stop spreading fake news

A smart business does not turn away a chance to make money......

Its obvious Facit isnt using CS for free... so what is the other alternative ?

Maybe Valve owns part of Faceit if not all of it...


anyways your assuming faceit users dont buy cases , you have data or a survey to bvack that up ?

Faceit doesn't owe the CS2 team a dime. Faceit is simply adding players to the whole game that are willing to pay micro transactions.

faceit aint ♥♥♥♥ adding players to the game? lol..........funnnnny. because you first got to get steam then cs then faceit. but faceit is adding players to this game.....dumbass
Let me break it down for you, then.

Valve gives money into hosting dedicated servers.

Faceit uses those servers to host matches that require players.

Faceit introduces a new anticheat as incentive to play on their servers.

New players come in and play on faceit, enjoy the experience, and pay for skins.

Skin prices go to Valve and they keep paying for server maintenance.

Yes, thats why you theory fails, they would make much much more money by not allowing cheaters, like
I explained.

let me break this ♥♥♥♥ down for you. since you seem a little slow. no brand new player knows about faceit unless their friend got them to get cs and told them about it. once again. a faceit's PEEK time of day to play in north america. you will only find tops 300 matches going and maybe 150-200people looking to play. now open cs up and look at the actually numbers.....100,000+ games going and 100,000+ players looking for a game on none peek hours. do the math batman.

1 - You know about Faceit and you have less than 100 hours in CSGO/CS2.

2 - Does it say how many servers are in other regions? Remember, America isn't the only land on Earth.

3 - Faceit AC benefits Valve because they can still keep their VAC only promise on their own matchmaking servers
