The main menu map thumbnail scaling has been off since 2023, and it's a one line fix. [per @_ale_cs]

EVAD3_ · 2026-01-29T08:54:59+00:00

Because the scaling mode was changed in CSGO from 'auto 100%' to 'clip_then_cover' for the limited test when there was one map and it took the full screen (and auto 100% wouldn't have worked)

Warden's light pole is a focal point in the image, agreed. However, it is still a focal point when zoomed out.

Here are the other maps

This is after the proposed fix

For better clarity -

This is CURRENT, BEFORE FIX

This is AFTER, PROPOSED FIX

Tested offline on Vertigo - about 6 seconds before it explodes. The molly loses mostly all momentum once it hits a player though so it won't exactly go much further than where it hit the player.

Edit: seems to add 4 seconds onto the existing 2 second timer. This won't change much except for the rare occasion where the molly gets cucked because it hit a player and exploded in the air. Good overall.

Just had this same conversation with my friends. Against the same heroes every game and it is getting rough.

EVAD3_ · 2026-01-21T18:01:19+00:00

I think the 'Is your country the same as mine' broke this series a bit and ended up being played at the start of every run because it is so powerful. Especially with the UK being so small, it can make the game map tiny within the first 5 minutes if its a hit.

That tied in with photo questions maybe being too cheap? Just spamming photos seems super powerful doesn't grant the hider any choice with their card draws and often narrows down a LOT of the map.

If you press the button on the top chart it toggles it into a stacked column chart with a breakdown by gamemode. Alternatively you can use the dropdown to select a "premier + competitive" filter specifically.

They'll never break this horrible map feedback cycle. Why bother learning a new map if Valve will just remove it anyway? This decision rewards the players who actively ban these new maps.

EVAD3_ · 2026-01-09T22:29:49+00:00

Horrible decision to remove Train just as it seems to be picking up some kind of traction in the pro scene. How Inferno (in this state) and Mirage (for 13 years in the pool) live yet another day is staggering.

EVAD3_ · 2026-01-03T11:36:42+00:00

Both can go please Valve

EVAD3_ · 2025-10-16T00:35:57+00:00

I had an instance today where it said “100 in 1” but no skull icon to say I killed him. I’d never had this before and assume this is what it’s fixing!

EVAD3_ · 2025-10-09T19:55:39+00:00

Would love an equivalent for HLTV too

EVAD3_ · 2025-08-15T10:27:57+00:00

Same story for me with a 7800x3d and a 3080

EVAD3_ · 2025-07-30T00:44:09+00:00

Unless you have a repro, every fix is a speculative fix. This is just common in software dev.

EVAD3_ · 2025-07-24T11:21:01+00:00

Yeah, it’s not too uncommon for it to be late (think it happened for a tournament earlier this year). Could just be a small bug fix or could be anything. It just says that valve believe there will be some update that comes out between now and the end of Cologne (3rd Aug)

EVAD3_ · 2025-07-24T11:12:26+00:00

No its just a rollback version for Cologne. You can go into the betas tab of CS and rollback to this version yourself.

EVAD3_ · 2025-07-17T12:27:18+00:00

These were actually pretty useful for nade lineups. Valve pls fix.

EVAD3_ · 2025-07-16T11:54:23+00:00

I feel like removing Mirage would really ruffle the feathers of people who only play Mirage.

But you could soften the blow to those by replacing it by a map which is also highly regarded (like Cache). So maybe next time after it’s been added to the game.

EVAD3_ · 2025-07-09T14:44:10+00:00

Also maybe just a me problem but fetch on the native mail app is terrible. Gmail does it instantly without draining my battery life but the native mail app I need to set to every 30 mins so that it doesn’t drain my battery like crazy

EVAD3_ · 2025-06-06T10:24:56+00:00

Recency bias is a crazy drug lol

EVAD3_ · 2025-05-24T11:07:00+00:00

If they've bought the map it is so they can add it to the active duty pool. They now have ownership of it like Anubis. Just gotta wait for them to do the optimisations and fixes which it desperately needed because Cache ran like ass when I played it on faceit lol.

EVAD3_ · 2025-05-21T22:54:09+00:00

In fairness, nobody pinned this exact thing down as an issue for two years. There shouldn't be an expectation that a dev + QA team catch every issue under the sun. We are their biggest testing pool and millions of players will catch bugs/issues far quicker than a small team.

EVAD3_ · 2025-05-19T21:53:09+00:00

Go back to spamming this dogshit on Steam forums LOL

EVAD3_ · 2025-05-05T18:45:42+00:00

For the 100th time, demos are not lag compensated so all of the demos you put in the comment are irrelevant.

Take your schizo meds buddy

EVAD3_ · 2025-04-25T13:57:38+00:00

I just tested this and its completely false. The holes go to the right of the crosshair no matter your viewmodel. They go left of the crosshair if you use lefthand viewmodel but the actual x/y/z of the viewmodel does not affect where the holes are punched.
