Cant play Dust 2

[Randy]

For 2 nights straight I cant play casual Dust 2 because I only get loaded into Chinese boosting servers that kick me instantly.

Have you any idea how unbelievably difficult it is to use AI to detect these things? It's practically impossible, apparently.

Pay the devs MORE, Valve, you're clearly lowballing these rockstars.

There's no good way to report it either which is super frustrating.

Could be a side hustle from people (devs) internal to Valve and the CS team, there's some rumours that a lot of the shadier real money trade syndicates in World of Warcraft have ties to devs in the company.

Lots of money to make this way in CS2 as well, it'd be tempting.

this would explain why they are simply ignoring and accepting the fact that the game is unplayable and dying for almost a year now.

i have never seen even a little praise for the cs dev team.
all i have seen is a mixture between calling them incompetent monkeys and a mafia.

revolver, pay4spray, free2play model.

the managment of the counterstrike franchise keeps failing at every single step of the way.

it would be safer to make business decisions on the basis of coin tosses at this point but since we all love the game they interpret our love and dedication to the plant defuse mechanic as the accomplishment of all their gamebreaking decisions.

they will never understand that we are playing this game despite their attempts to change it.
not because of it.

Could be, have you seen the rent prices in San Francisco? And apparently these devs are high paid, know what too much money does to you? You want more of it. I mean, it's just a video game, who cares, right?

Cheating is a Billion+ USD industry, I'm sure palms are greased all the time.

If I told you I'd wire you $1m cash to ignore some problems, no strings attached, who would say no to that?

You could potentially end any form of cheating in CS2 in weeks by financially auditing its devs.

the west is being sold out. the only winners are the communist in china who are just waiting until our government ran everything into the ground for them.

lol, nah bro, nobody is immune to corruption, what matters is how it's dealt with.

Can you imagine how many attempts there are to bribe CS2 devs?

[76561198215160003]

should we email the dev team and ask them to investigate possible corruption within their own company ?

Nope, that's their problem, not ours.

this is to be expected as it was released as 100% working.
a lot of people complain about it not opening which is normal for any product from valve.
have you seen their hardware ? it was a total fail.

Have you tried ping limitation? There may be connection problems from your side or the servers in your area are down.

i don't know who you are talking to but if you mean OP it would be useless.

in china cheating is so freaking prevalent that the government had to outright outlaw it.
just imagine this.

the problem is that the cultural problem of cheating is now offloaded to the west via vpn.
VPN changes your IP adress and makes you look like you live in america for example.
they solved it for their own country by making it illegal and now we have to deal with it in the west.

china is not alone in this.

the countries with the most cheaters per capita are

#1 china (china numba wan)
#2 turkey (close two)
#3 russia / brazil (these countries actually have a long lasting and dedicated esport scene unlike the other two)

the mods are transsexuals which is absolutely cool there is nothing wrong with them being transsexual

Nah, I experienced this too on local servers in South Africa, it's a global issue it seems.
