  • LeafChow leaf chow (@LeafChow) reported

    @CounterStrike Bugs are fixed bit by bit; sometimes it even takes pro players speaking up before the issue gets any attention.

    @petr1k_tv @StarLadder_CS @CounterStrike Was amazing for you maybe. But the seats/tickets issue that affected hundreds was terrible. We missed the final because we couldn t get into our sector

    Hey @valvesoftware, @CounterStrike I guess no matter how often we mention this problem, it's not going to get the attention it deserves or become an urgent issue that has to be solved as soon as possible. > THE CHEATERS Sometime between the Semi and Grand Finals at the most recent Major Tournament, @BanKsEsports declared "Counter-Strike" as the best e-sports game of the year. I've been playing Counter-Strike for the past 25 years. Normally, this announcement should have made me feel incredibly happy, yet I couldn't stop myself from thinking, "Why can't I enjoy the game as I play it instead of just watching it?" and "What ******** is taking so long as the possibility of having a joy is constantly taken away from me and the people who love this game after all these years?" I don't know what's taking so long, but can you guys please do something about the never-ending cheating issue? The worst part is when this starts happening, even on Premier, we know we have to endure this **** for a god knows how many more minutes of our lives, just so we don't get punished for leaving the match before it's concluded. (I don't judge if anyone leaves as a response, btw. Everyone's life and free time to enjoy their favorite game are important. And also, maybe they don't care anymore because this problem is never solved, which is 100% relatable.) Sadly, I uninstalled the game I've played for 25 years. I felt the urge to make this decision after getting decimated by cheaters 3 matches in a row on PREMIER. I can't take this anymore. As soon as someone starts cheating, nothing makes sense and I completely lose it from the disgust at what my favorite game has become. Sorry not sorry. I'll be happily watching pros do crazy **** in tournaments because they get to play the best Counter-Strike at the moment, and it gives me more time to do other stuff, so yeah. The sacrifice had to be made. I'll find new hobbies for myself happily. Btw, all these complaints will keep happening because of how a multi-billion-dollar company, still not implementing a proper anti-cheat for their most played and beloved game, even almost in 2026. Crazy...

    @valvesoftware @CounterStrike During my time in CS:GO (2014-2022) people told me to play on @FACEIT to have a better tick rate and no problems with cheaters. The idea of paying extra money for having a better gaming experience and making sure there won't be any cheaters in the game I wanted to play was crazy alone. Now, Counter-Strike 2 has been out for a little more than 2 years and the same people are telling me to stay away from it because of alleged reports of cheating. I don't know, I am not sure, it might be a false allegation but it still doesn't solve the main issue where this problem should have been terminated a long long time ago. I've never seen a major problem like "cheating" not being taken seriously by the people who have all the power to end this, in my life. Until this is solved, nowhere feels safe even when we try to queue up for a 5v5 because a sociopath joining as the opponent can decide to **** the whole thing up with impunity. Unbelievable. Do something please guys. The community deserves this. Damn, I wish I could tag Gabe Newell under this post. Counter-Strike will never die. But at least respect its legacy a little more please.

    @ThourCS2 @CounterStrike I think Cache needs to be added to the competitive pool first. That way, they can fix any bugs before moving it to Active Duty
