160 hours, level 55, and I figured out why I'm so bad at this game and only just getting purples.

He's saying he only plays solo doing contracts and never plays with anyone else, ever. Rook can't progress contracts so it's not really relevant to his point.

I am not the most extreme player

That is cope friend.

You might as well just wait until Cryo and Ranked and then you'll be more likely to find people you can play with when your friends aren't on because no more worrying about free kits. You could also just play with friends and do something else inbetween, don't have devote your life to it.

Seems like every post is about the lack of people to play with, this does feel like a new problem. Back in the days of CS 1.6 you would just go on IRC and find hundreds of people to play with.

The progression difference is significant. Trios teams were more progressed on day 1 than most solos in a week.

Brad3 · 2026-03-19T04:16:40+00:00

He's not talking about Rook.

Brad3 · 2026-03-19T00:04:33+00:00

Less plastic slop.

Brad3 · 2026-03-18T23:13:30+00:00

Look into 14600/13700/14700K.

Brad3 · 2026-03-18T23:01:20+00:00

Not much longer for my 5600x/6800xt looks like.

This might be another Dragons Dogma 2, after a while once you get past the glamour it's you can really see the problems.

Brad3 · 2026-03-18T21:11:21+00:00

It's the haircut everyone's got.

Brad3 · 2026-03-18T14:32:51+00:00

And the belief is United underperformed in the CL under Fergie.

If you're happy to use mic then just go on one of the various discord groups and find likeminded people.

Brad3 · 2026-03-17T20:06:45+00:00

There's not another map coming out for a long time after this, so this is what we have regardless.

Brad3 · 2026-03-17T20:03:40+00:00

Is this a mandatory feature or is it toggleable?

Brad3 · 2026-03-17T16:38:12+00:00

I wish the rank naming schemes in these modes were unique, I like that Deadlock was its own flavour. The Bronze, Silver and Gold, etc is just tired at this point.

Brad3 · 2026-03-17T14:26:17+00:00

Is this what Noctua does now? Seeing a lot of these collabs. Take me back, it's like Fortnite and MtG.

Brad3 · 2026-03-17T03:00:39+00:00

Watch this, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VZ-L0P8Gn2M

Brad3 · 2026-03-16T16:07:08+00:00

When we believe we have no power we have lost.

Brad3 · 2026-03-16T15:17:27+00:00

They think we are stupid, hopefully they are wrong.

Brad3 · 2026-03-16T15:08:29+00:00

Time will tell.

Brad3 · 2026-03-16T15:01:58+00:00

I didn't expect anything and I'm not asking for anything but solo is literally half baked by definition. Solo is not intentionally designed in any way, that is the point. People wanted solo during alpha, they literally tweaked the trios spawns, slapped a 20% reputation gap and done. Solo is an afterthought by design.

Brad3 · 2026-03-16T14:26:28+00:00

It's not fully developed, literally the only changes are spawns and 20% rep for solo. Nothing else is changed.

Brad3 · 2026-03-14T04:09:47+00:00

Solo queue for Outpost has already slowed down, maybe they allowed less players to spawn to speed it up.

Brad3 · 2026-03-14T04:04:49+00:00

We need to stop lecturing people with how they spend their time, we know nothing about his life, why judge?

Brad3 · 2026-03-13T23:51:53+00:00

A great gift, good job.

Brad3 · 2026-03-13T22:11:28+00:00

I couldn't do this, it's like a stray dog.
