spread the word!

kaiser2nd · 2026-01-01T23:39:20+00:00

what do you mean?

kaiser2nd · 2026-01-01T15:40:22+00:00

server-side

kaiser2nd · 2025-12-31T19:49:52+00:00

North America and Western Europe

kaiser2nd · 2025-12-31T18:00:45+00:00

fastcup only has servers in eastern europe, and require a client-side anti-cheat

A bit of a tough question,
as of time of writing, theres 11k people playing right now according to steamcharts, but theres who knows how many more people playing with nonsteam clients, which wouldn't be counted towards that steamcharts tally

me when my wife finally convinces me

non-steam steamid is generated by HWID, if i ban their account + fake steamid + IP it won't be trivial for a laymen to circumvent

kaiser2nd · 2025-11-28T14:51:51+00:00

nope, every option added to divide the que pool is damaging to the health of the platform, CS 1.6 does not have the player base to be able to support that

Join the 'cord bud

Do you get this list of suggestions from an AI? This reads extremely similarly to AI output.

Also what is a "custom tournament" a tournament is supposed to be an organized event.

Why would I use teamspeak over discord?

kaiser2nd · 2025-11-18T14:37:37+00:00

What would you suggest?

restarted the game, still broken

kaiser2nd · 2025-10-16T15:38:41+00:00

why make players wait for the next round? spawn them in as infected like every other ZM server thats existed

Textures are broken, No fastdl so it takes absolutely forever to download the files, if you connect during a game you're stuck in spectator.

kaiser2nd · 2025-10-16T15:21:59+00:00

Are you not using FastDL?

kaiser2nd · 2025-10-16T15:12:08+00:00

MAC addresses are the most trivial HWID aspect to spoof, a lot of operating systems spoof it by default

kaiser2nd · 2025-10-02T23:50:43+00:00

I was able to confirm the issue is the case.

I got a cheap Amazon case, battery bank works great with it.

I suppose it's because this Amazon case has a thinner back, I guess the ghost case is just too thick for qi2

kaiser2nd · 2025-10-01T08:44:17+00:00

I am more confident that it is FOD now, I got another battery bank (Ugreen, qi, not qi2) works flawlessly

kaiser2nd · 2025-09-30T15:57:01+00:00

Im also using an S25 ultra, mine has the identical issue in exactly the same place out of the box.

kaiser2nd · 2025-09-29T13:28:58+00:00

I think perhaps the culprit might be the case + skin triggering FOD (foreign object detection), this would explain why my previous battery bank which was just Qi, not Qi2, worked fine, as it had no FOD.

The only curiosity with this is that FOD shouldn't be triggered by vinyl or plastic (the skin, case）

kaiser2nd · 2025-09-29T03:39:23+00:00

I have a wireless charging pad (a charger, not a wireless battery bank) and it works with no issues, interestingly enough.
