It's for competitive autists that can't move on and play new games. I had a friend that quit because he believed everyone was cheating and blame that on him losing.
Is he wrong though
If he was Global+ in CS it could be the case. I'm just your generic slightly above average MM shitter in the MG1-DMG category and I've never really felt anyone was suspicious. Very different for high level players.
I was supreme in the GO days and it was the comfiest rank to play at
He's only a little wrong. I had only played like an hour of Source and 1.6 combined before trying CS2. CS2 is really fun, but I just don't see any point in talking to people on Ganker about it.
Cheating is why I stopped playing battlefield. Getting sniped out of a plane by a lewis machine gun in BF1 for the 10th time just isn't worth it.
I guess I haven't really played any FPS game since then. Cheaters really ruin this shit and they are everywhere.
KISS
what's there to talk about, it's like discussing tetris
>hurr durrr hurrrf durrff
Every Valve mp game thread ever:
>There are cheaters in every game, but valve doesn't give a shit
>There are smurfs in every game, but valve doesn't give a shit
>Obligatory artifact schizo post
>When will valve fix the game?
>The game was better before
>No, the game is actually better now
>No before
>No now
>Some random starts posting LEWDS of characters
Nothing ever changes.
>Some random starts posting LEWDS of characters
HOLY
there are cheaters in every game
even fricking trackmania
I heard that you're a cheater if you use an analogue keyboard in that game.
>dumps fat big
>starts dating hot chess player
Wirtual is a chad
I know it sounds bullshit but even fricking Chess has "cheating" allegations.
Magnus gayson, the supposed best chest player alive in the world right now, gets a free pass for accusing opponents of cheating because of butt plugs or people on the audience making him feel uncomfortable.
Fricking bullshit.
>Play multiple 100% engine accurate games in person at tourney
>Post game interview refuse to elaborate
>Leaves
Yeah, wonder why Magnus got the sus
>Some random starts posting LEWDS of characters
Based
Okay, what do the threads you like look like?
LEWDS only
Opinion rejected
>Why is Counter-Strike still so popular
It's the archetypical normie game. Even its esports feels the closest to how real sports gets covered.
>How come Ganker barely talks about it
What's there to talk about? It's already the perfect game that barely needs anything new. Nothing to say about it outside of notable events like CS2's bad launch or an operation.
Ganker is bad at videogames especially multiplayer ones. They would rather larp about how good Quake 3 (a game they never played) was
quit cs2 because i dont find enjoyment anymore
>be 12k in beta, have a generally good time
>get ranked 1,6k in live
>playing with mentally handicapped new people against russian wallers with fresh accounts
>cant even win games i drop 40 kills in
>faceit also full of moronic russians who cant speak english or communicate
also subtick sucks dick and can frick off
lots of people running&gunning way too successfully and playing like morons in general because the game allows them to
>just adapt to new meta bruh and abuse peekers advantage in every position
yeah frick off, this isnt cs this is some fricking kiddie shit, i dont want to play quake or some other shit i want to play cs and this doesnt feel like it at all
im on a break until valve actually makes this game more like csgo, until then ill save my sanity and rather play something chill
>quit cs2 because i dont find enjoyment anymore
>immediately starts crying over his rank
you'll never be an esports superstar and nobody gives a frick about your rank. if you derive fun solely from your rank number, just install hacks.
Why can't you just explain what changed between CSGO and CS2 with sources?
>lots of people running&gunning way too successfully and playing like morons in general because the game allows them to
wtf
The rank distribution is really messed up, and I get the feeling a lot of OG players have stopped or taken a break because the game doesn't feel good at all yet.
Ganker lacks the competitive autism to play a shooter at 1280x960 4:3 stretched res and grind it for 10k hours with an anime profile picture
esports slop only kept in the public view through sports betting and skin gambling websites, the game itself is worthless.
CS2 threads would be okay if it were about sharing tips and helping each other get better, but all that can be done by just watching educational videos really
>Why is Counter-Strike still so popular
Because it's fun, free, and easily accessible.
>and how come Ganker barely talks about it?
Unironically because there are no trannies
>Play CSGO at 100fps
>CS2 comes out
>Plays at 20fps
fug
the boomers in here hold grudge against this game because it killed their dogshit competitive shooters such as quake
Quake, Unreal Tournament, Tribes.
All kneeled to CS
If we were in the correct timeline where valve made actual CS2 as an upgrade to source then Ganker would be talking about it more. Ideally we'd be talking about our favorite surf/gungame/zombie mod maps from fpsbanana and posting clips from PUGs that we got from organized scrimmages or even just some clips from casual games. Instead we have this game where every zoomer and e-sports Black person's biggest concern was about their fantasy skin market and whether or not their skins would carry over into the new game. To makes things worse, the focus has shifted away from community hosted content, instead everyone worships the almighty ~~*official*~~ matchmaking and ranking, we're never going to have fun community driven e-sports like CAL or CEVO again, instead we get the privilege of getting twitch Black folk shoved in our face and CheatingESLSperg Team vs SmurfRitalinAbusers420 in the Winter cuck Tourney 2023!!!! It's pathetic what they did to the game
>we're never going to have fun community driven e-sports like CAL or CEVO again
There are more community events now than there ever has been
How come Valve stopped updating CS2? Are we Artifact'd?
Ganker lost its grip on Counter Strike when GO started to push esports and match making over the server browser.
CS was never powerful on Ganker compared to Tf2 but GO killed everything about owning servers.
why dont more people call valve out for this? Unlike other games.
I find the main 5v5 to be boring honestly, unless you're playing with friends and actively communicating which is very fun. Deathmatches are the only fun mode if you're on your own imo
cops and robbers themed peekaboo shooter for arthritic geriatric millenials who never had the skill and talent to handle quake and unreal. sad. take your antacid and schedule your colorectal cancer screening, gramps.
Every time I try to play this piece of shit both teams have obvious wallers and aim hackers. I miss 2011 CS:S ego servers.
It's an ancient game that's mostly a finished formula. What is there to say about it?
this, and also it's a mechanically solved game.
It's a series that has been talked about, played and tweaked for 20+ years, so there isn't anything to talk about outside of new maps and pro drama since there's no story or lore behind the game.
Even if you're an enthusiast, there are plenty of much better places to talk about it than Ganker.
Same maps for 20 years. I don't see any reason to talk about it.

And that is only going back 6 months ago of this year.
It's baby's first "serious" fps that requires no skill beyond some aiming and you can blame your teammates for playing like shit.
Also lootboxes, it's mostly lootboxes.
