CSGO Full version vs CSGO Prime
I have prime because I reached level 21 (when you could do that). If I click to buy Prime, it does let me. I feel that the "free" Prime accounts have a lot worse trust factor than the paid Prime accounts. What is the difference? Not asking about Free to play accounts. Free Prime vs Paid Prime.

The CS:GO Authoring Tools is available on Steam to Counter-Strike: Global Offensive owners with Prime Status running Windows. the Prime Status has to be bought through CSGO or Steam, or by having bought CSGO before it became free to play. Players who have been awarded Prime from reaching rank 21 or higher are not given the Authoring tools.

Prime means you play with other Prime players and not free to play players.

There is no difference between free and paid Prime. Prime is Prime.

The only difference is you got it free during the 18 months you were allowed to rank up in game to get it free.

That's all.

Trust Factor does not care about how you obtained Prime.

I am asking this because I am able to buy Prime Status on this account, but my friends that paid the game before and got Prime don't have the option to purchase. If you go to buy on the Store and gift the Prime Upgrade you can tell your friends with Free Prime because it says CSGO Full Version. But you can still gift the Game.

Also.. ALL my friends tell me they get more cheaters playing with me. So that is why I feel there is a distinction.

Same issue. I believe there is a difference, otherwise it should not let you buy the upgrade

There is 0 difference between the 2.

Like I said. If you have "Prime", but you can still Buy a paid Prime, why would there be No Difference?

Go buy it then. It would be a waste of money but if you're dead set as that being a deciding factor just do it.

Source? I'm asking because I bought it and I play with a friend who's got a free prime. When I'm alone my experience is normal, when I'm with her, my experience sucks and neither of us get a low TF warning. I can vouch for her she is not toxic in game and does not cheat.

Again. My question is why is it available to buy if there is no difference? It is listed as a different Version of CSGO. Full vs Prime Upgraded.

And are you talking only because you think there is no difference or what is your argument? I don't understand your "angryness" towards this topic.

Do you have Free Prime or Paid Prime?

Exactly my experience and of other 20 friends!

Many friends that have alternate accounts mentioned the same thing. And it is not a Trust Factor issue... IT IS EVERYTIME!

Free Prime just means use can't use the workshop tools nor publish workshop items because you need to pay to use the workshop tools.

This is why you can still purchase Prime on the store.

It has no detriment in game vs paid.
