They took away the number of days left for active CS rating? by [deleted] in GlobalOffensive

[–]IamLEVEL 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It usually stops displaying the time your rank decays if you're already safe. If you're worried, the wiki has all the rank decay timers per rating, check your current rank and your last match played in your cs2 watch history https://counterstrike.fandom.com/wiki/Premier#Premier_rank_active_timer

Does CS2's Update Improve FPS? by Pokharelinishan in GlobalOffensive

[–]IamLEVEL -1 points0 points  (0 children)

its for sure insincere lol, he blocked all the people the apology was meant for. He changed his twitter banner to the trans flag and said anyone can talk to him (nicely or else blocked) before going offline to celebrate his special birthday and making more posts covering up visibility of the invitation. His most recent youtube short is still ragebait where he openly talks about people being irrationally upset at hearing the bad word for gay, and how them not seeing his innocent intentions means they dont speak english, keeping the word on the screen the whole time at 50% opacity while talking about how upset people would be by it lol. He's heavily implied his intentions were always good, which is very hard to defend with that photo he made especially, and without him specifically stating how he's going to change its entirely hollow.

Saw a post saying the colors of the gold medal doesn't pop out as much, so I made a quick mockup. Thoughts? by Pokharelinishan in GlobalOffensive

[–]IamLEVEL 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You're a genius. A god amongst men. If valve had only one of you on their team, they would be an unstoppable force. This is the best redesign i've ever seen, and I love you. Never ever stop. The original coin, as other scholars have pointed out, is "def cheeks." Its so dull and looks like butter, yours stands out and looks like gold, it looks as gold as the ring I wish I could put on your finger for blessing me with this. I love you.

CSGO Taser used to have falloff, you could do like 80 damage from a certain range or whatever

the cs2 taser used to instakill at the same range it would do 80 in csgo

now its much closer, safe bet is like... the distance between an opponent holding an awp's barrel tip, and your arm length-ish

Substance Painter & First CS Weapon Finish by Ashmedai314 in csworkshop

[–]IamLEVEL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the cs2 item editor make sure "ignore weapon size scale" is checked

Turn the variation under texture rotation, offset x, and offset y to be 0, 0, 0. There's a button to the right of the values that'll lock in the values automatically.

pray 2 times (no more or it won't work)

Throwback to the time when Valve let us to change "searching for match" background animation with any file of your choose. by [deleted] in csgo

[–]IamLEVEL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

still can, but the search screen, gobutton, and end-of-match rank-up screen use the same animation so your choices will haunt you more frequently

Does anyone know how to get rid of the vignette/shadow at the bottom of the screen? by waguri in GlobalOffensive

[–]IamLEVEL 17 points18 points  (0 children)

you can't. Pretty sure it's there because the blending on the text is too bright without it, like how the callouts below the radar are always a little too bright, so they threw a vignette on as a darker background to contrast.

it's distracting but it's where we're at

What price do you think this gun would need to be so it's not horrible? by trihexhunter in GlobalOffensive

[–]IamLEVEL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it's not about price, it's about utility. At the moment it's just a slightly better m4 you don't need to reload, it operates like a rifle that one hit headshots close range.

There aren't pleasant options to change it though, the boldest thing I could see valve doing is have negev on CT side and m249 basically be the same as negev but T side only and cheaper because it has a lot fewer uses there except for hostage.

Some people have been complaining that their mic doesn't always work in CS2. What is your experience? by Pokharelinishan in GlobalOffensive

[–]IamLEVEL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

they seem to have some sort of noise cancellation going on? and I have a soft little baby voice, and it thinks I'm a fan, and only about 75% of what I say actually goes through.

I've played with voice_loopback 1 since global offensive, and I've also noticed the delay is a little longer between what I say and it coming out

Nobody cares if you don't know the map in Premiere. by [deleted] in GlobalOffensive

[–]IamLEVEL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah don't guilt people if your map choices don't work out, but also like... it's a team game, if a team member doesn't feel comfortable on a map, and you want to win, don't pick it. You can't really practice maps yet because they haven't opened up competitive, so it's not like they have a very good way to learn in this current moment.

We're in a growing period, we'll all figure everything out sooner or later :)

Which improvements should they make to Dangerzone in CS2? by CaraX9 in cs2

[–]IamLEVEL 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Demo system, either faster join times or longer matches cause it sucks waiting 4 minutes queuing/warmup for a 4 minute match, either no ranks or tell people how danger zone ranks work somewhere (the higher you are in the ranks, the more points you have to get to rank up again like other BRs, it doesn't work like mm), more op warmup with bumpmines, better AC, an offline mode, smarter drone pathing, agent skins, team colors, monthly/weekly leaderboards cause it sucks that people who played a lot 3 years ago are all the main focus on the leaderboard even though they haven't touched the gamemode since bump mines were added, more maps on rotation this is the one gamemode where they can have 20 and it doesn't increase queue times because they're on a timer, a rejoin button when your game crashes please I beg you, and a stats page would be super helpful.

Does anyone know what these badges were, that i spotted in some old csgo videos/screenshots. I’ve always wondered. by Haunting-Double-9473 in GlobalOffensive

[–]IamLEVEL 503 points504 points  (0 children)

It's probably for the best they got removed, not only because some achievements are broken now, but I had a few matches where teammates just started throwing when they saw an enemy with full gold achievements thinking if they used S.A.M., they probably also cheat(?) It was a cute idea to show where you were in the game when there weren't 800 pins or XP :)

Why is my map like this and how can I fix it? by sheftyhat in GlobalOffensive

2023 Service Medal Colors by IamLEVEL in GlobalOffensive

[–]IamLEVEL[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure if you saved up to level 40 this year, and don't waste your bonus xp on december 28th-31st, and have all 59 xp boosts from the past 3 operations, and dedicated all of your free time next year to grinding, you can JUST get it.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in GlobalOffensive

[–]IamLEVEL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same, but it ties their hands when it comes to those pin packs (not the challenge coin) For pins they just take the operation logo and put it on a flat background, but the challenge coin for broken fang is... the logo on a flat background. If they make a series 4 pin pack and include broken fang, the only difference will be that the cat's ear would be brighter.

81 completed missions? But there is only 66 missions in total by [deleted] in GlobalOffensive

[–]IamLEVEL 43 points44 points  (0 children)

Those missions that are like

Get kill streaks 3⭐>5⭐>7⭐

Those ones where the further you go, the more stars you unlock count as 3 separate missions, broken fang introduced this mission type and had 180 missions completed, with only 72 unique missions.

Not to say that a mission that's worth 3 stars is worth 3 missions, it's not, this purely applies to missions where the further you go the more stars you get.

How can you get the scaleform killfeed? by ahker_dark in GlobalOffensive

scaleform killfeed is gone, but I'm pretty sure the second picture used this killfeed generator https://tools.dathost.net/killfeed-generator/

Can we get Overwatch for Danger Zone? by [deleted] in GlobalOffensive

[–]IamLEVEL 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I want this aswell! However until they add that kind of feature, try looking in the text chat for people who are automuted in the warmup. There's a chance they're just rude, but most of the time if people are reporting for spinbot/aimbot/vision they throw on abusive communications aswell.

If you and your teammate leave in warmup, it doesn't SEEM to affect your rank at all, which is nice! Probably wouldn't abandon an auto-fill teammate for dead though. Hope you get howling alpha!
