CS2 Performance state of the game - LINUX and Windows.

[soFREAKY]

So i just want to know if the team behind CS2 is aware about performance issues that game has now.

Even EliGE said about the problem in his latest post here:

https://www.reddit.com/r/GlobalOffensive/comments/1eqdy7z/elige_on_cs2s_fps_issues/

As you can see in this post on reddit so many players are facing problems with game optimization when playing on really good PC's, both Windows or Linux.

The game now has some really huge fps drops even on high-end rigs.

I'm having 400-600 fps but the drops can hit even lower than 220 fps, that's just awful to play and feel terrible. Also on Linux when you press ESC key or open buy menu the game can freeze or lag for a few seconds (in cs2 console it shows some commands/problems over and over again - is there any reason for that? i mean i get it it's a dev console sort of but just try to press ESC key/buy menu key a couple times and then open terminal in CS2 and every time you press a key it show w problem and lag/stutter happen).

So i just want to know if the team is aware of the issue and if it will be fixed / worked on so the performance no longer will be an issue - a PC that is capable of run the game on 400-600 fps should not drop frames below 200. As competetive game a CS2 is it should not be even allowed to not be consistent as it now is.

I played this game for so many years and i think we all just wanna have a great game that works great and without issues on a good hardware/software.

Ah I see the problem here, I am have issue as same as you. But the patch released around February to April seemed better than this true, I got around 200ish or more on entry-gpu like AMD RX550. After patch in July, I got around 100ish only. Back in days CS:GO on linux well perform there, and release of CS2 Valve mentioned Linux not good place for that also playing it on Steamdeck with SteamOS. Around April Valve changed policy to every user keyboard, some good and some just lack of. Well this is the fact
And there are a lot of questions around here, did you using 240Hz monitor and locked it? If this happen well it's Valve plan with more performance on better gear
Maybe windows updates and drivers could give you lack of performance. Linus Tech Tips did show this issue before.
Or your configuration in game need to change where limit fps set to 1000fps no console needed, and this maybe problem because after updated it just give you some disadvantages.
New maps like Thera could lead to huge fps drop, me got 29fps OMG. And would you like to play on new maps?

from 600 to 350 and its dropping on acient to 50 fps. DO NOT PLAY THIS TRASH GAME

this game must drop linux and support runing under proton, its like ♥♥♥♥ -200 fps from windows perforance even though i use amd rx6600 with latest drivers using archlinux this game have been and still ♥♥♥♥♥♥ under linux over the past year and the patches made it even worse

Yeah, game runs terribly as of the last updates

with my 6800 and 7700, the performance in linux is pretty solid like 400-700fps, however it still wants to launch on my secondary monitor every time.

Kubuntu Linux user here.
CS2 runs well the first 1 round, but afterwards performance decreases drastically. I'm playing through Linux Runtine 3.0 (sniper), high-end PC that's capable of running 144 fps stable. Performance mode on Nvidia and the OS itself. Restarting the game helps. but temporarily. I only seem to have stable 144 on Office map, but there could be drops at times. It seems there's something causing the bloating if the map is too big and it doesn't reset/flush each round.

Dropping support so instead of a native Linux release we have to tinker with running the windows version through a compatibility layer?? No way.
They just need to fix their game.
Native games are always better if they are ported correctly on Linux.
