Takes forever to rank up?
I just got this game a few days ago and is it just me or does it take FOREVER to rank up. I'm currently at rank 2 and I'm only getting like 1/30 of the exp bar per game. Is it supposed to take this long?

It stops smurfs from ranking up really fast. To rank up all I did was play DeathMatch and just get 30-50 kills a match, ranked up in a day. Once you play comp mode you get like a full level each match.

Yup, it's to slow down smurfs along with the annoying 2 wins per day limit on competetive before you get ranked.

Wait until wednesday, then the mulitplyer bonus will reset.

Why do you want to play MM if you only have 15 hours anyway?

Because its more fun than casual. I like the thrill and the toughness of it. Also some of my friends keep begging me to do comp with them.

Agreed. How many people are there on each team in casual, like 10? Just too many.

If you think that is a lot wait till you play source! 32 vs 32 were the days. It takes 6 hours of nonstop deathmatch with multiplier to get to levl 3 and 8 without at an average of 25 frags per match. Good luck and have fun!

P.S. Some people were saying that it is designed to slow down smurfs, that is partially true but not nearly the whole scope of things. It was primarily put in place to encourage new players to actually learn how to play before going to MM, the 20 hour cooldowns between placement matches was not enough and completely unexperianced players were getting in to the games. This way new players will at least know the mechanics of the game a bit more as well as have some map knowledge before they play there first competitive match!

rank ups in CSGO is actually really fast compared to other games like LoL or DOTA. You need to be level 30 to play competitive and it takes just as long if not longer to level up. so 10x as long in those games.

Stop crying and just play the game for what it is. I swear..kids these days.

The XP bar is also semi-time gated, as the amount of XP you get is reduced beyond a certain amount each week.

im fairly new here too..
and when you start this up without prior knowledge it really is surprising how long time it takes.
i do understand why, and got no problems with that.
but..i dont understand why we cant have 5 on 5 games?
there no real tactics on casual..a killing spreee is what it is.
5 on 5 why not?
