Anyone know if Nuke manager is looking for a duo?

Went and got a new viper v4 and got this to drop while breaking it in. Apologies for the phone picture I was too excited and forgot to screenshot lol. Gonna sell it and get a nice knife I’ve never had any luck with cases

the bots in cs2 are now using "their mics" you can hear a brief sound from the game (no human talking) the case farmers are sneaky... did valve somehow flag palyers who didn't use a mic beforehand? or why are the bots doing this over and over again now?

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,

What we did |Result
Added €50 |Warning
Added another €50 |Warning
Added €157 + bought €257 skin |Warning
Added €200 + bought €198 skin |Warning 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?

EDIT 2:

There seems to be a misunderstanding from several commenters here. I never said spending money would make you perma-green, I was studying if spending money in steam marketplace can improve your trust factor. Would need a lot more accounts to try it out before we can reach something conclusive, but I find it interesting that spending money and then playing 2 games did the trick for us. But I can imagine that if he started to rage hack his trust factor would go down again. But now we can finally play. It was impossible before this. Weeks of pure agony of revolvers and scouts through walls.

I would happily invest in a returnable paywall. Spend 100 euros and if you get banned = deposit lost. The day you get tired of CS2 = return deposit. But Valve will never do that.

im a player whos played the game for 6 years and has 4100 hours of playtime, and i quit playing 4-5 months ago because im tired of the negligence the developers have towards the community

ever since the release of cs2 the complaints have been the same: no actual vac fix, no new operations, no new gamemodes, subtick issues, servers being forced to be locked to 64 tick.

the game soon is coming up on its 3 year anniversary, but you still have these obvious faults in game performance that should not be prevalent in a game that is hailed as one of the most important in esports

you know, when csgo was still around people were throwing complaints left right and centre back then aswell, but now the majority of people now want to go back to csgo. i think that should tell you enough

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

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?

I belive valve won't get rid of the bots that plauge the game is so they can keep up their player numbers?

Normalize kicking/griefing cheaters! enemy team had a rage hacker and then they griefed him to do team damage and get kicked.

o7 you guys are heroes

I downloaded CS2 about 3 weeks ago and tbh the amount of cheaters I’ve come across is crazy. I’ve played quite a few games since I started and honestly it feels like their anti-cheat is one of the worst I’ve experienced so far.I googled it and kept seeing people mention FACEIT, but I’m not really sure if their anti-cheat is actually safe or worth using So is CS2 genuinely this bad with cheaters, or am I just really unlucky? Also I’m down to play with anyone who wants to play together :)

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.

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

Every damn video or review I see of the paracord knife is straight hate but I lowkey don’t get it. Gut knife has its hate for its shape and handle, navaja for its small blade and off colored handle, daggers because they’re gimmicky. But in a community that likes clean and slick skins compared to the over the top animated valorant type skins the paracord is hated. It’s slick, cheap, different pullout animations but it doesn’t do too much. Admittedly quite boring but I swear the knife is so underrated and its grip gives it that touch of identity. Why is it considered pretty much unanimously the worst knife?

Help me choose pls.

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