@Polterghast @PretzelHugs well even then people usually do multiple short burst smoke spams roughly consecutively and from safety which you can still do

@SwillCS @PretzelHugs Apologies, I had in mind the frequency of spam, not the length of spam. Since most of the time you don't tend to mag dump a full 20 into a smoke because that's too much time in the open and is much more likely to result in death via retaliatory fire than a quick burst.

never seen the kind of pushback this update has received, played about 10 games of valve servers today and yesterday and in 8 of the games at least 1 person said they are probably going to sell their skins and leave the game or that the game is going to die

@Polterghast @PretzelHugs hardcore smoke spam doesnt even change, its only like 4-7 bullet smoke spams that are different

@SwillCS @PretzelHugs Does the update even do anything? You hardly reload more than 3-4 times per round anyways. It seems that besides hardcore smoke spam nothing much will change. Who shoots 15 awp bullets per round?

@Irate_Jobbie @bibiahn immediate punishment such as dying is very different from long term punishments such as poor physical and mental health, relationships, or grades/careers. ADHD ppl are famously able to be extremely good at video games

@SwillCS @bibiahn That sounds like you are suggesting that if ADHD sufferers were punished when succumbing to impulses they would be able to control it? If only you had shared this with medical professional years ago.

After playing a practice day with this update, I don't feel it affects the way I play that much at all. If anything I won't die mid-reload out of adhd now :P

@Irate_Jobbie @bibiahn There’s a difference between “adhd forced me to do it against my will” and “I allowed myself to succumb to my adhd impulses because there was no downside” - people would not spam butterfly inspect animation if it did 5 damage to yourself

@SwillCS @bibiahn Did valve do an update that cured your ADHD?

@Irate_Jobbie @bibiahn Just not true

@bibiahn If it was your ADHD making you reload that won't change with this update.

@BrokenCSG @bileyiwnl Please explain why you can’t spam walls or smokes or take risks now

@bileyiwnl Why is this a good update? Why make game boring for no reason, can’t spam walls or smokes or take any risks now. Boring asfuck

10/10 update, ammo has been such a useless mechanic in CS - it could've very well been just unlimited ammo cuz you never ran out of it anyway. Super excited to see this shit ingame, finally a good gameplay update 🙏

@Ethan_gTV Pistols will not be used in gun rounds if that’s what you mean, and as an awper I think it will barely change

I think with is update just initial thoughts -Pistols will be used to spam and take early round fights -Awping will be 10x harder -People might buy extra guns in spawn to have ammo for rotates(smg/extra pistol) -the auto actually might be way more useable in this meta for awpers (sorry for the auto propaganda but it’s true)

@godxpEEzY it will change how the game is played a lot but I dont think thats a reason to hate it, valve understands that constant trade offs is what makes this game so deep despite its "simplicity"

I think I hate this change, this has been CS for a very long time and really is going to affect spamming smokes and such

@Berba210 @starlightsrey @BurrowBeliever I’m using the word “may” to concede, not to say maybe

@SwillCS @starlightsrey @BurrowBeliever May have? Its not even remotely close lmao. Dune 1 is already barely discussed anymore.

sorry but no dune movie will ever come close to the impact that the originals alone had

@starlightsrey @Djonimacarroni My point is that your personal opinion doesn’t just dictate reality

@SwillCS @Djonimacarroni i am gen z and yes we can tell the ot is vintage sci fi but it is way prettier than the pt. not all of us prefer the prequels

@starlightsrey @Djonimacarroni Almost everyone I know who is gen z or younger notices the aging effects of the original movies and prefers the prequels

@SwillCS @Djonimacarroni no of course not. the reply said that star wars was good for its time and doesn’t compare to dune which is absolutely ridiculous. that’s why i said star wars is timeless

@starlightsrey @Djonimacarroni Are you trying to tell us that dune isn’t timeless when the dune characters and story are way older than Star Wars and are making huge blockbusters today

@Djonimacarroni no way. star wars is timeless. even almost half a century after it’s release the story, characters and visuals are phenomenal and pull in more fans

@starlightsrey @BurrowBeliever It’s just not though, the Star Wars *movies* may have more impact than the dune *movies* but that’s about it

@BurrowBeliever alright, even if you don’t consider it’s impact, star wars is better 🤷🏽‍♀️

@PretzelHugs VRS is good

@SwillCS I think the game is pretty good besides cheaters and VRS, I do think MR15 was better competitively but I understand valve wanting the game streamlined I miss the movement sometimes but I just go back to GO and play community servers for that so it's w/e

I hate when people say CSGO is just nostalgia when it just feels better, it's similar to CS2 but I'd say it's 10% better in moving/shooting, the biggest thing I miss from GO is MR15 CS2 does address ping very well though, higher ping is a lot better in CS2 than GO I enjoy CS2

@PretzelHugs my biggest problem BY FAR with cs2 is that it isnt 128 tick

@SwillCS prime example is 128tick, it's more $ for valve so they refuse to do it when the game is infinite money glitch as it is

@PretzelHugs community servers are in shift+tab menu now and it works

@SwillCS the "40% worse" is mostly graphics/playing w high ping, community servers aren't built into the menu anymore, no danger zone, the smokes in GO had a different meta than today and I prefer GOs bloom, I do like CS2 and prefer it but it's hard to ignore what we lost, also MR12🤮
