can u play cs2 with 4 players in lobby? in beta u can only start premier with 1,2,3 or 5 players

I'm pretty sure they don't allow 4 stacks, which is good imo

why is this good ? i want to play with my 3 mates premier

2023-09-28 20:25

6 replies

Because often it really sucks for the 5th guy who doesn't get any info at all or any support either. Also I've seen quite a few times a 4 stack just kicking the 5th because they don't like him and the 5th guy can do nothing against that.

sometimes 3stack doesnt give info as well. but yeah being the 5th one with a 4stack sucks ass. I remember being kicked by 4stack in csgo just before winning for the memes when i was a teen, bro i wanted to kms.

Yeah, luckily at least in CS2 you get the rating for a win even if you were kicked so you don't miss anything for getting kicked in a win.

2023-11-12 11:09

Now it's good... 4 stack but u can't kick the fifths single player

2023-11-12 18:10

2 replies

which is a good compromise since the 4 stack can simply invite a 5th player, but now has the freedom to queue as a 4

2023-11-12 18:26

Yeah it's a solid compromise, but it still sucks for the fifth guy to have to play "blind" when the 4 stacks very rarely bother telling any info to the fifth except if they want him to do something (like for example rush a site).

2023-11-12 19:21

I think it will stay disabled in premier mode, for competitive it should be ok.

2023-09-28 12:34

ofc you can, since few days ago. also download demos

2023-11-12 09:10

now u can play premier with 4 stack I do it with my friends since like last week

CSGO was really bad for two years, at the very least. The game was still awful after a year. CS2's starting point is miles ahead of CSGO

2023-09-28 15:32

yeah so why tf are we forced then to play this dogshit game, why they simply didn't leave the option to choose what you gonna play cs2 or csgo, instead I need to go and overwrite the update, freakin hell..

Well I really can't, I got killed 3,4 times last night while holding the angle and enemy didn't even show up on my monitor, also there are a lot of ways to abuse smokes again, not gonna talk about how broken the sound of steps or nades is I haven't played, so that's why my question is WHY DID THEY HAVE TO DISABLE THE CSGO LIKE THIS, just because they knew if it remains easily accessible majority of players would keep playing it, this way you need to overwrite the freakin update and run it under some demoviewer shit The maps also too bright, spraying is not fixed at all I could keep up listing game's glitches/ poorly made features until tomorrow I swear

2023-11-12 09:11

"Well I really can't, I got killed 3,4 times last night while holding the angle" it's a well documented fact of life that you can't do that in CS2 anymore, stop sitting like a duck and be proactive in your defense. At some point you have to grow up and adapt, life won't coddle you all the time. At this point I'm just convinced that people crying about cheaters in CS2 just sit default all day everyday and wonder why they kept getting killed lmao.

Just because it's a update to CSGO doesn't mean CS2 isn't just as much a new game as CSGO was. It even has a new game engine when CSGO used the same source engine the earlier versions used.

2023-09-28 12:35

It's not even close to a new game. Csgo was shit too is also a terrible excuse. The length valve fanboys reach to make excuses for valve is hilarious. They are a multi billion dollar dev. We still don't even have the full game. They treat us like this because of people like you. They had no issues bringing dota to source 2. They have neglected csgo since they acquired it. Their most successful games just happen to be ips that they purchased from better devs.

2023-11-12 04:06

2 replies

Like I said, it's probably even more a new game than CSGO was compared to 1.6 because CS2 has a new engine and they basically had to do everything from ground up. Calm down and stop being so dramatic. Just think of this as open beta because it's obviously not the finished product. They've already fixed countless of bugs and maybe the gameplay miles better than it was during launch.

2023-11-12 09:07

Relax. The game is free for CSGO users. I'm used to playing more than 200€ for a life cycle of a FG like Street Fighter lol. Valve are quite generous in comparison

2023-11-17 15:49

Well game is in a playable state, but still - we do not have cl_righthand, bobbing options, game alt tabs you when looking for community servers, rubberbanding when running into players(doubt they can fully fix that), idk, if you release a game then release it fully ready. I hate these 'but CS:GO wasn't good at the start either', that isnt justifiable. No need to be average when you can be better.

2023-11-12 22:04

lmao no way, there will be updates for CS2? I thought they ported the whole game to source 2 just to leave it once it gets release???? I am baffled

2023-09-28 12:12

People who expected CS2 to be perfect straight after release are probably living in their own reality.

2023-09-28 12:25

This shouldn't have happened, they had the experience from csgo. Volvo we need cs 1.7 now so we have 5 years of a decent game , untill you fix the shit cs2 game

2023-09-28 12:30

if its not polished, why are you blindly accepting the replacement that they did on a polished game?

that was 11 years ago, it's 2023 bro.. ffs whats wrong with these ppl

2023-09-28 15:44

i am very much glad valve do what they do instead of listening to the community, well they still do listen to us, but not in the way people think

2023-09-28 15:49

CS2 is more than enough optimized to run on the majority of hardware. Stop complaining when you have a GTX 1660, it’s time to upgrade. These people complain about the game because they can't run it, not because it's bad And last, no game will never launch in a perfect state.

2023-09-28 15:51

I downloaded it today and its literally unplayable, fps is really bad, drops, lags, movement is so slow, spraying is off, sounds are so plastic, the game might look better but i cant run 1920 so whats the point, it looks worse than csgo at 4:3, unnecesarry changes like buy menu completely different, i wasnt going under 300 in csgo, now, not that u can properly tell because the fps command is absolute shit (changes in milliseconds) it goes down to the 100 something, what a joke, csgo looked crisp and clean, this shit is colourful and dusty. Absolutely shite, csgo was my main game for 7 years, i did not play anything else, time to move on to another game? Apex legends? Or what

2023-11-12 09:27

But why do u want to give it time? Valor and Fortnite didn't get time yet people were quick to give them names. Csgo is such a baby getting pampered. Spoiled kid who can't blame themselves but gaslight others by making itself victim. Why don't valve put in effort and money? But expect playerbase to be patient? Unreal stuff. Make millions from skins yet somehow will get defended by some people for stating obvious. Soon it will be dead game. Boomers will phase out. Tiktok generation with attention span problems won't tolerate this bs and deservedly this game will face consequences unless they improve themselves. This fake casters will also jump ships

2023-11-12 09:28

hating cs2 is some people's whole personality (loba, haix, s1mple etc.) and they just wont admit they cannot accept change and move on.

whether you like them or not, their entire livelyhood is based on CS it just so happens that they don't like the buggy mess of an unfinished game, like any sane person that ain't licking Gaben's behind for seemingly no reason

but most of them aint even helping make the game get better. take a look at other pros who give constructive feedback and talk with devs. meanwhile s1mple ignores valve when they ask whats wrong. childish behaviour. if the game is your life, you should also help the devs, community etc. but i dont care honestly, i love the game. and im not a valve fanboy, i dont play any other game they made. but i dont miss csgo and all the bugs i have seen dont really matter to me

It ain't their job or responsability to give Valve feedback on a piece of shit game that was released too early. They already spend a huge amount of time grinding in this buggy mess as a part of their job, why do you think they actively have to do Valve's job for them? Also, who's to say that they even CAN give good feedback? Not everyone is good at giving ideas or telling what's good or what's bad. They abuse the bugs and find the small things to their advantage, that's about it. It doesn't make them game devs. It's just such a ridiculously stupid point. It's really amazing that you personally enjoy the bugged, terrible balanced product.. but that doesn't mean that anyone else has to.

Ofc they are not obligated to do so, but if valve asks you PERSONALLY its just normal human behaviour to say something. Ignoring them and then crying on twitter is pretty sad. Ofc you can do whatever you want and you dont owe anybody anything, but then you can sit with your “broken” game and cry all day. And crying all day will get you so far. The choice is yours. So I dont see the point of million threads “game sucks but i still play everyday 8h”

You are arguing semantics while you are also reaching hard by implying that all people who shit on the game are actively playing it. You also call it crying, simply because you don't agree with it. Completely and utterly delusional.

Ah yes, high accuracy while walking/running making a+d spamming viable.. which was fixed in CS:GO. Even accuracy while jumping has increased. It's like Valve is going backwards and making it purely for casuals once again. Yeah very skill based

2023-11-12 18:28

Skill based as in, it upgrades or degrades if you're a noob or a good player. It counts metrics such as APM, sensitivity, dpi, crosshair placement, etc... much like Leetify but specifically to upgrade/degrade aspects of the gameplay in real time such as Audio/Hitreg/Damage.

Hi guys, what are your predictions for the future of esports within this competitive gaming community? The notable decline in player engagement and the decreasing number of esports organizations raises concerns about the long-term sustainability and growth of Counter-Strike as an esports title. How do you think these challenges will impact the overall esports ecosystem in the Counter-Strike community?

2023-11-12 23:04

2 replies

It's an interesting and somewhat concerning topic you've brought up. The future of esports, especially in the context of Counter-Strike, seems to be facing some challenges. Esports is dynamic, and player preferences can shift over time. The decline in player engagement might be a result of evolving gaming preferences. he health of esports organizations is essential for the overall ecosystem. A declining number of organizations may indicate financial challenges, changing sponsorship landscapes, or other business-related issues. It's crucial for organizations to adapt to the evolving esports landscape and find sustainable models for growth. In summary, addressing the current challenges in player engagement and the esports ecosystem for Counter-Strike requires a multi-faceted approach. Adapting to changing trends, fostering community engagement, and exploring innovative strategies will be key to ensuring the long-term sustainability and growth of Counter-Strike within the competitive gaming community.
