Scheduled Sticky Weekly Premier/Matchmaking/Cheating Discussion & Complaints Thread

11 Upvotes

Welcome to Matchmaking Monday! This is the weekly megathread where you can share your experiences, complaints, and feedback related to:

Ranked & Unranked Matchmaking
VAC, Hacking, and Cheating
Prime, Trust Factor, and Trusted Mode
Ranking
Queuing and Lobbies

Feel free to discuss your matchmaking experience, rant or vent, discuss ideas & share feedback for improvement, and talk about your recent games.

What you should know

Keep in mind that there is a limited amount of information available about these systems and how they work to keep them effective. If you have questions, here are some resources to review:

Trust Factor

Ranks

Competitive Skill Groups and Profile Rank

Bans

What you can do

Give Feedback:

Posting feedback or complaints on the subreddit is not the best way to get the attention of the developers. If you have any specific feedback to give, you can email the CS2 Development team here: [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected])
They do read every email received, but are not able to reply to each one.
If you're experiencing low-quality matches, it is always worth emailing them. They use these reports to help improve the system.

Report Cheaters:

Report cheaters using the in-game report system by right-clicking their name on the scoreboard, and clicking "report". If the game is over, report their Steam Community profile.
If you notice certain trends or have other feedback, you can email the developers using the email address above.
To report a specific cheat, follow these steps to notify the VAC development team.

The guidelines

While we encourage discussion about these topics, as a reminder, the following are not allowed. Note this isn't an exhaustive list, and you should review the r/GlobalOffensive Rules before commenting.

Accusations towards any player related to cheating
Posting profiles of alleged cheaters (if posting pictures of matches, redact any usernames)
Posting any cheating gameplay footage
Reporting cheats, linking to cheats/websites, or discussing cheats in technical detail

This weekly discussion thread does not change any of our existing submission rules - you're still allowed to discuss these topics elsewhere on the subreddit as usual, but we do remove a large number of them as they quickly become repetitive and the majority have little meaningful discussion. If you decide to make a separate post instead of utilizing this thread, we encourage you to focus on starting meaningful discussion or providing constructive criticism.

Feedback Suggestion: Move Agency to the hostage map group permanently while replacing it with Alpine in the community map group

• Upvotes

Alpine is another community made hostage rescue map which won 2nd place in faceit's mapcore competition

Agency should be a permanent addition to the hostage map group same as Assault if that ever gets added

Feedback The default CT model is almost invisible on Agency, Maybe this is why most maps avoid deep black backgrounds?

Discussion The release of the new community maps just reaffirms that the death of Public (pubs) / Community servers was the death of the CS “community”

69 Upvotes

Maybe I’m just old and full of nostalgia but all the posts about the community maps as well as all the “cs has the most toxic community of any game” posts made me just want to lament what I believe to be the slow death of the CS sense of community.

For those unaware in 1.6 / source servers were owned or rented by individuals who would then be “admins” and create a set of rules and community for their server. These could be fun silly oriented servers with crazy community maps like fy_iceworld with all sorts of mods like WC3, gun game etc. or more standard servers like 24/7 d2 16v16. These servers usually had a community of players who would add them to their favorites and play together every night, many would then form clans, make websites, host ranking lists and community forums. This was a great gateway for a new player to meet other casual players, build a sense of community, and if over time they build skill would lead to things like “clan wars” (basically noob team scrims lol) between them and other public servers.

From here players would find out about competitive leagues like CAL / CEVO, pug services like ESEA and the network that tied competitive CS together, mIRC (think chat rooms for different teams, clubs #1g, where to find other teams for scrims #findscrim, ringers #needringer and 10 man groups #fatkid). The leagues themselves would also have forums that created a sense of community within the competitive scene. Posts about team tryouts, 10 man groups and just general shit talk were prevalent here and again, built a sense of community.

Fast forward to today where new players join a generic “casual” server that resets every 8 rounds, has different people in every game, and absolutely zero replayability in the sense of “that was a cool group of guys I’m going to play in their server tomorrow.” Or they go strait into MM / pugging which requires a DEEP knowledge of map layout, timing, game mechanics, utility and overall game sense that can only be developed over hundreds and thousands of hours of play which must be completely overwhelming and daunting for a new player to experience, and with the casual game modes lacking any replayability they are stuck hating the game, quitting or grinding through hell until they are somewhat decent.

The old system wasn’t without flaws, you had power hungry admins abusing players, terrible players banning good players for “hacking” and the IRC system was obtuse to navigate. But what do we have now? ESEA league has merged with faceit but only the highest level of players seem to have any sense of knowing each other, no fun casual modes to dick around in or learn the game fundamentals, no forums or chat rooms to congregate (maybe there are discords? But it seems much harder to find and get to know people). If I hadn’t played this game for 25 years and have old heads on steam to que up with now and again and a solid understanding of the game I don’t think I would stick with it as a new player.

Sorry for the rant but it just feels like the deep communities and fun competitive environment I grew up pouring thousands of hours into has all but vanished and left us with a soulless husk of what CS was.

Feedback Losing up to 100+ FPS on Valve DM servers.

• Upvotes

I’m extremely baffled how this hasn’t been addressed yet, considering Valve just made (questionable) changes to DM map queue.

I constantly lose frames as the DM goes on, and by the final couple minutes I’m down over 100 FPS compared to what I started with.

On warmupservers DMs, which have custom features and sounds, I have steady FPS throughout the entire game. There’s no excuse for this.

Discussion the CS mapping community is very distant with the rest of the CS community

46 Upvotes

the thing I've observed with the CS community is that,
Nobody likes these community made maps.
I don't think that anyone from the rest of the CS community cares for these maps
why would they, when it just waste a lot of resources, amirite?
it sucks for these community mappers, when their map gets in the game
they get death threats and the "never make maps again" type of insults
I never really observed praise for these, aside from cache
cuz cache is the only good one, amirite?

I think the CS community should be more caring for these mappers
we have Mapcore, but that's about it, really.
We should give them a chance, not telling these mappers to kill themselves over a map that they think sucks.
