you boys know some gamer words I see

Anyone know if Nuke manager is looking for a duo?

cstracker.gg is scraping all player message history from games and allowing it to be publicly searchable. I have literally never heard of a game that lets player messages be searchable in this context.

I'm probably not the worst offender here. I spend my games meowing at people and zeusing them. That doesn't need to be publicly viewable and searchable.

i thought he played 4:3, but looks like he is playing native res, and i dont think on his house he plays different res than on lan, that would not make any sense

I downloaded the demo for each game, and each game had a cheater. Most people played with a rage mod. VAC Live triggered only once. I’m thinking of having some fun too.

Saw some clips on yt and this post:
https://www.reddit.com/r/cs2/comments/1u1yn7p/if_you_struggle_with_trust_factor_make_sure_you/?utm_source=chatgpt.com

and ofc Renyan short clips. My friend got low trust factor when we queue, so we decided to test this out - can we clear the low trust factor with money?

Before spending: warning showed every time when we queue.

So far we spent about €457 on his Steam account and bought around €455 in skins.

Result: warning is still there after this process,

and no played games yet.

So in our case nothing changed by simply adding money or spending it on steam marketplace.

Tonight we will try several games to see if the low trust factor clears up. Will update this post if it does.

EDIT:

After 2 games (one win, one loss) we no longer have trust factor issues. Before all of this his account had lower trust factor every game we queued for at least 15 games, probably more.

And I cannot find the update that fixed this?

Just Faceit servers atleast so I don't have to play every wednesday premier vs cheaters.

For some reason everyone in my lobby from australia is routing through south east asia

Edit: sydney server is down ? Doesn't show up in server list

Idk exactly I wanted this on a hat, but it’s fun to remember the frog.

I’m brand new to CS2 and the amount of cheaters I’ve ran into is lowkey crazy, but this last one is wild.

This dude had a spinbot and his name kept changing to our names in the lobby so if you tried to report him, it said you were reporting yourself. He kept spamming the game chat too with crazy stuff and it’d say we were saying the stuff ourselves. The lobby eventually ended after like 3 rounds of this and then CS said I didn’t have a valid Steam account. Is this a normal cheat and should I be worried about his cheating / messages being tied to my actual steam?

For my fellow players who only solo queue and don’t have friends who play the game, What’s your Elo or face it lvl?

I’ve reached global on two maps strictly only solo queuing from nova, which took ages to get due to random teammates throwing, ect. I’m 20k premier which seems to find good teammates for the most part, but if you were a solo queue in 10k range i’d feel it’d be impossible to get your elo up.

I’ve never played faceit but imagine it’s probably higher iq players which would be better for solo players.

So, 5 days ago i was playing with my friends and put my video settings to 4:3 and put them back (i dont know if this had anything to do with it but its what i did before everything started happening) since then everyday for some reason my fps keep getting lower and lower in matches without me changeing the graphics, at first it ran around 180 fps on high then 160, 110 yesterday was around 80 and now in a match its under 60 i've already tried everything that gemeni suggested as i could not find anybody with this issue, i have uninstalled the game and i am in the process of installing it back right now as im typing, im hoping to fix it by this.

what i observed tho is that its not using my gpu, my gpu ussage its styaing around like 10% 15% and cpu around 40%

if it matters idk my specs are

Laptop Acer v15

CPU:intel 5 210h

GPU:rtx 4050 (gb vram)

Ram: 16 gb of DDDR5

its not an power issue as the laptop is plugged in and receving power.

Thank you all in advance for the tips

What do you guys think about ASUS ROG replacing Zowie at PGL Singapore 2026?

With the PGL Singapore 2026 Major being played on ASUS ROG OLED monitors instead of the usual Zowie monitors, do you think this could be the beginning of Zowie slowly getting pushed out of the pro scene?

Could we be heading towards 24/25" OLED becoming the new standard for competitive CS, especially now that we have 24.5" 1080p OLEDs going all the way up to 720Hz?

Or do you think Singapore is just a one-off/circumstantial case because ASUS is providing the monitors for this particular event?

I'm curious what you guys think. Do you see Zowie losing its position in the pro scene over the next few years, or will TN/Zowie still remain the standard despite OLED becoming more advanced?

Feel free to share your opinions.

Who is this guy and how is this possible? Got him in a random game on Faceit today which in uninstalled also today... Waste of time

Don't open cases fellow degens. After 1100 cases I got my 2nd knife after the 1st falchion autotronic bringing it up to about 700$ back and maybe 500$ in reds.

However the story was great, I sold my awp printstream to buy a new driving game to practice stick and I didn't like it so I refunded it and decided to open cases. 10 dream and nightmare got this on the 3rd. GG

Help me choose pls.
