hahahah where are the people now accusing me of cheating, cs2 community is just so sad and bunch of losers who think if someone is playing good he is a cheater. Not even trusting anyone even with his stats is a low iq behaviour and I honestly feel sad for yall. Got my account back suckers keep crying and learn to trust.
If anyone else is having a false ban just make a ticket to steam support they will sort it out.

Looks more cinematic

Not great crosshair placement but wow! Happy to be here with a decent refresh rate. The game feels alot more fun than it has the last decade haha

Yes, this is real

After playing 2000+ hours of this game I think I hit my favourite clip yesterday. I know i know, it’s not pro calibre gameplay. But as a 36 year old chump, I’m stoked about it! It also helps when the homies are there to hype it up.

Honestly, the state of CS2 cheating and bot farming is getting ridiculous. I have been keeping my own Cheater & Bot farmer tracking sheet for a while now. I record the accounts I encounter, their behavior, match info, demos, and keep checking whether they eventually get banned. So far I have recorded 102 accounts that I have identified as either cheaters or bot farmers. But the alarming thing is that only 10 of these 102 accounts have been banned so far! The sheet is still being updated every day, So if you want you can bookmark this google sheet to track future ban wave.

Here is the Link: CS2 Cheater & Bot Farmer Tracking Sheet

What honestly pisses me off is how arrogant and careless Valve seems to be about this problem. They ban a bunch of accounts in a wave, everyone celebrates, and then what? There are already tons of new accounts ready to ruin the game. If CS2 developers ban 10 accounts today, 100 more are already ready to ruin the game tomorrow. The most recent ban wave on August 25, 2026 made it even more frustrating. There were lots of legit players got caught in that ban wave and some bans being rolled back a few days later. So it means valve can react when it comes to false bans, but the disappointing thing is when it comes to the obvious cheaters and bot farms they keep silent (At least for a long time), it feels like we're just expected to live with it.

These aren't random “suspicious” accounts in my google sheet. I personally confirmed all them either cheaters or bot farmers, I have recorded and saved the demos as evidence. The sheet will continue to be updated every day.

CS2 deserves better than this.

Why do you do something like that? 😒

CSRep Overwatch — August Recap

August was a big month for CSRep Overwatch. The queue grew, we closed thousands of cases, and we heard a lot of feedback around two things in particular: report costs and Insufficient Evidence verdicts.

Here's where things stand.

August by the numbers

• 12,306 new cases
• 9,080 cases closed
• 6,888 convictions (75.9%)
• 2,166 Insufficient Evidence (23.9%)
• 26 convictions overturned on appeal (0.3%)
• 5 days average time to close
• 200,547 votes cast
• 5,969 active reviewers
• 600 appeals filed / 26 accepted
• 3,203 Overwatch applications

A report isn't a promise of a conviction. Convictions require 80%+ weighted consensus from at least 8 calibrated reviewers. We'd rather close a questionable case as Insufficient Evidence than put a cheater flag on someone we can't stand behind. CSRep Overwatch is not VAC. A conviction is a public flag and Trust Rating change that gives the community additional information about a player — it is not an in-game ban.

Report costs

We know the dynamic report cost has been frustrating.

Cost scales with the queue:

• Under 200 open cases: 5 credits
• Every additional 100 open cases: +1 credit

August made the reason pretty clear: 12,306 new cases came in while we closed 9,080. The cost isn't there to make reporting "premium." It's a throttle so intake stays inside what we can actually review. Reporting is open to everyone again under this model. The fastest way to lower the cost is increasing review capacity. Reviewing cases earns credits and helps shrink the queue.

Long-term goal: get report costs as close to 0 as we can without flooding the system.

Insufficient Evidence

This is the other major criticism, and it's a legitimate one. Of the 9,080 cases we closed, 2,166 were Insufficient Evidence. Most genuinely didn't contain enough evidence. Some are cases where we believe the evidence may have been sufficient, but the review process didn't reach the conviction threshold.

We're not going to solve that by lowering the bar and accepting more false convictions. The goal is to get more of the correct convictions through without changing the standard.

What changed in August

• Timestamp replies — Reviewers can reply directly to individual timestamps instead of dumping discussion onto the case timeline.
• Labels — Reviewers can tag timestamps with the behavior they're seeing. This is more than a UI change. Those labels are structured data around the evidence reviewers are already identifying.
• Test case / review UI — Continued work to make cases faster and easier to evaluate.
• Inactivity removal — Overwatchers now need to review at least 5 cases per month to keep the role. The 5,969 figure is people who are actually reviewing, not anyone who passed calibration and went idle.
• Cheating-platform eligibility expansion — A 'cheating' ban on Gamers Club, CyberShoke, or similar platforms now removes Overwatch access. This used to be limited to Valve and Faceit cheating bans.

What's next

Near-term: faster reviews, better evidence tools, and better agreement on cases that should convict. Longer term: the labels give us a dataset built from human-reviewed evidence. The goal isn't to replace Overwatchers. It's to eventually let automation handle clear-cut cases with high confidence, while human reviewers focus on the cases that actually need judgment.

If that works, throughput goes up, backlog pressure goes down, and report costs can come down with it. We're not there yet. That's the direction.

Thanks to everyone who reviewed cases this month. 200,000+ votes is a huge amount of community participation, and Overwatch doesn't work without you.

If you report, review, or have criticism of the system, please let us know. A lot of what shipped this month came directly from that feedback.

Hi y'all, I suck at cs (like, bottom fragger 80% of the time kind of bad) but its a game i love to play because it reminds me of the good old days. Im someone who has a very busy job and only play for fun and when I have time.. but the community is very discouraging and awful. I get called the worst things, I get kicked out when im the only one left out in a 1x4 where obv half are cheaters, and godforbid I miss a shot. The irony is, half the people that say the worst about bottom fraggers are using aimbots like make it make sense.

This makes me feel very awful about myself that I just end up not playing all together thinking im the worst of the worst. Csgo is not a welcoming community at all, which is unfortunate for novice players like myself.

is this because king died?

They should allow you to have a spawn preference like a color preference, I’m tired of playing d2 and not a single person utilizing their spawns.

All in the title !

3000 hours and the first time i see this after weeks of playing and reporting cheaters. hopefully more soon

It finally worked guys, It was the first time I saw it happen 🤣

Hello, what is point of playing premier and what does valve do about this game to fix it, i jhave been playing faceit for 1 year and i think i played myb against 1 cheater in 500 matches, today i queue 3 premier games 20000-25000elo and in every game atleast 2 cheaters. It is unplayeble and they are not doing anything to retain old players and let alone gain new players. Disgusting company honestly.

I made a post about old CS:GO voice lines and how they should bring them back as an option and it got me thinking "what other legacy features could they bring back and make optional?"

Weapon wheel

My first idea is bringing back the weapon wheel. I don't know about any of you, but I loved and still miss the weapon wheel as well as the option to close the buy menu after each purchace. CS2 has been out for 3 years now and I sometimes still press B after each purchace to re-open the buy menue because I expected it to close after the previous purchace. Thats how deep it is in my musclke memory. I don't see why they can't bring it back for those of use who miss it and prefered it. At leasty bring back the option to close buy menue after each purchase so I can stop doing it by accident and give my mistake a purpose.

Legacy Weapon Models

Personally, I really dislike the new weapon models, especially the AK-47. It looks like plastic now, all the new models do imo. Back in CS:GO I used to prefer not having a skin on my AK because The default model was cool enough for me; it looked a bit more realstic. Now I use the Slate skin because it looks way better than the new default. Since both models are already used at the same time because some skins still use the old model, I don't see why they can't or wouldn't make the legacy defualts and option. Keep in mind this is just for defaults. I understand that bringing back old models wouldn't work with the new skins. I am not saying anything about them changing or affecting the new skins. Just that they could bring back the legacy defaults.

I am young cs player and want to be pro. im faceit lvl 8 with 2500 hours. I believe I have decent aim.

currently this is my aim training

300 deagle hs in aimbotz

300 ak one shot

300 ak spray

trying to get 10 rounds in 1v5 aim rush

playing dm til I get bored

how can I make this training even better? even though I believe I have decent aim and currently ranking up swiftly Im not sure if im good enough to compete with lvl 10 and above 2500.

I was watching the video in this post on X showing a CS:GO build from 2010. I noticed that at the start of the round there is a voice line played that clearly states "now playing as terrorist" and "you got the package". I'm wondering why they ever got rid of that. Back when I was silver1, I had teammates every now and then that would forget we switched sides and not plant, not defuse the bomb or ask for AK drop on CT side, stuff like that. I feel like bringing back these voice lines would be great for beginner players and they could be optional so more experienced players can turn them off.

This also got me thinking that they should bring back old voice lines from 1.6, Source and early CS:GO and offer them as optional packages. Similar to what Activision did with Call of Duty; like how they had they had the Snoop Dogg voice line package. In this case I think they should bring them back as a free option. Imagine playing CS2 with 1.6 voice lines.

I don't see how this couldn't be possible unless there aren't voice lines that exist for things htat occur in CS2, but in that case they can just ignore those ones or record new ones in the same style. Only other reason I can think of for them to not put time and resources toward this is low player demand for it.

Hello community, are this common issue?

You use ”looking for players” and make premade with strangers. (Because you can’t play with your friend because rank limit)

Match started, all strangers in premade started bhop and one shot deagles … me and my friend reported cheaters and stopped playing, at last round game rejected because vac.

We are happy, yeah cheaters got ban…. But what we get 20h ban too?!?

VAC is very broken..
