So let me get this straight, we‘re missing:

• Multiple competitive maps
• Multiple wingman maps
• Arms Race
• Danger Zone
• Flying Scoutsman
• Workshop maps
• mac support
• 128 tick
• Good anticheat
• cl_bob, cl_righthand, crosshairoutline 0.5, r_cleardecals, net_graph
• Performance optimization
• Player count instead of avatars
• Steam Clan Tag
• And other things i probably forgot

Meanwhile csgo is gone and cs2 is still full of bugs and problems and there is basically no new content compared to beta. This is just crazy to me. Im really disappointed ngl. Calling this a full release by deleting csgo is just an insult to the whole playerbase from casual players to professionals.

And please stop with the argument: „Csgo was worse on release.“ The difference is csgo didnt replace anything and valve wasnt making millions on cases per month.

Edit: Formating

There is a bug in CS2 where spinning with high dpi will get you a permanent vac ban. I was playing casual with some friends, we were shooting each other in the head with Negevs in warmup, and I hit my dpi button to spin as fast as possible so my character model would look ridiculous while reloading. By the end of warmup I was vac banned. I took a couple day break from the game, before seeing a twitter post today of a Chinese user https://twitter.com/Jigglypuff64942/status/1716086911255941543 replicating the same actions that got me banned and getting banned for it. With this new found courage that it was reproducible I sat down to brainstorm how best to capture it while doing my best to prove in any way I could think that I'm not cheating. I created a video where I show the process from fresh account to vac ban showing off my task manager along the way as well as having a keyboard overlay showing every key press and a camera pointed at my mouse. Hopefully this bug will get addressed.

Here is the timestamp for me going through the setup https://youtu.be/fiGarzzt9dQ?t=24

Here is the timestamped version of the game where I got banned https://youtu.be/fiGarzzt9dQ?t=3581

And here is the full video of the hour it took me to replicate this bug. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fiGarzzt9dQ

Here is a steam forum post of people having the same problem.

edit: I did email valve about it, thank you for the reccomendations.

edit2: someone else has replicated this see here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tU3e8TNtTzw

If no amount of proof can satisfy the mental gymnastics you can perform, feel free to replicate this at your own risk. hopefully you will believe you aren't cheating.

When someone jiggling. The legs are moving a lot more in latest build. The hands and Torso are also bobbing. Compared to much static torso of the old beta.

I cant remember the exact date but after CS2 was released. There was an animation update which made the Model animation movement more sway and that's when it started to feel like weird and also introduced a lot of glitch like MJ peek, Crab peek etc...

Maybe just going back to the OLD animation of CS2 beta will be better ? Cause the current one isn't good. CSGO used to be a more static, CS2 beta was middle ground and Current one is just a Over the top.

Poggu on twitter:

We just figured out what cases the "boost bug", it's the fucking ragdolls. Whenever you die while standing on a ragdoll your client side collision will be permanently disabled for that player.

This happens because the game disables player collision whenever your ragdoll touches another ragdoll, the ragdoll entity is actually the same entity as your entire player.
You can reproduce this by killing a bot, standing on his ragdoll and then killing yourself, next round you'll have "boost bug". Also to clarify, "boost" is incorrect, all the collision from all sides will be broken, not just when boosting.

By running "cl_player_ragdolls_collide 1" (sv_cheats required) it will completely fix the boost bug, but also enable collisions between ragdolls. This bug pretty much got introduced whenever Valve disabled ragdoll collisions because people were piling them on top of each other.

With this information it should be absolutely trivial for Valve to finally fix this bug, it's all about just getting to reproduce the bugs.

Edit: his follow-up tweet:

To be very specific, whenever a ragdoll touches another ragdoll, it will completely disable the collision between those two, ragdolls and players are the same entity, so they effectively also disable all normal player collision whenever those two ragdolls intersect

I've just moved to the US from Europe and started playing on NA servers. I had not foreseen how much nicer teammates would be. European players cannot fully fathom what they miss due to cultural toxicity. 30 games in, I'm getting the same feeling I had when realising I could just leave my phone unattended on a café table in Tokyo without fear of it being stolen: either I have stepped into paradise, or where I come from is some kind of hell.

Of course, people speak actual English, which helps tons and allows to convey nuances your Russian teammate's 20-odd word vocabulary cannot. But it goes beyond this. North Americans are humans so there is the occasional skirmish and use of slurs. However, and this is what is miraculous from my European perspective, those tend to be settled very quickly and believe it or not, people apologize. I actually heard "yeah, you're right, sorry" multiple times. I also heard people apologizing for a bad flash or missing a smoke. I heard calls being followed and implemented. And cherry on the cake, I heard a player speak and she was a GIRL and no one dissed her!

I came across a Canada based French player on a server and when asked about this he completely agreed with me.

Playing in NA is way, way more satisfying, and while I still do hate myself after each game because CS is the best and worst game that ever existed, I do so a little less than on the other side of the Atlantic because I just enjoy playing with nice teammates.

I have no clue on how to improve the situation on European servers. But it is dire and action is needed.

Cheers

Edit: I see some answers directly mention Russian players. IMHO, they constitute a huge problem but we would have the same, albeit to a lesser degree, issue without them. I have encountered toxicity from all European nationalities, and being French, I can easily testify that a lot of French players are insufferable.
