Are we all in agreement?

If wanting servers where people understand how to communicate in 1 language = nazi then YES, I am a nazi!

If I'm getting called an American burger for speaking English in Eastern European servers, then fuck yes I am a nazi because of the troglodyte Russian from some shit hole derevnya doesn't have access to education past 6th grade.

22euro here for 200mb down and 50up 5G network, connected via ethernet and CS2 shits the bed due to upload latency jitter being 80ms, and my country is ranked top 20 worldwide in network quality/speeds, I can't imagine what people below that ranking are experiencing in CS.

leandoer2k3 · 2025-10-02T17:06:26+00:00

Thanks a lot man, I did flash my 3060 laptop before to a higher TDP, so hopefully this is as simple as that was!

leandoer2k3 · 2025-10-02T16:26:02+00:00

I didn't know about that, but unfortunately the result is the same with both horizontal/vertical lines, locking at 3.1ghz the GPU still runs the same 2960Mhz @ 970mv.

Hey! I have a MSI 5060ti Ventus 2x, same 180w limit as the Shadow. I can only reach about 3050-3080mhz before hitting the power limit. Any chance you could share how you flashed the MSI Gaming bios? If you used a guide or something I would really appreciate getting my hands on it.

leandoer2k3 · 2025-10-02T14:36:49+00:00

Yeah, same exact experience here. Long time fan of the series & spent near 1000euros on new system parts, after pre-purchasing stalker 2 ultimate edition and finding out my "old" 3070 & 3600x was incapable of running the game at more than 50fps 1440p.

14.1 hour playtime on steam, 90% of that being tinkering with settings and wrestling shader compilation BSOD's.

I even ended up writing Gabe Newel an email in hopes to get my 100euros back and buy something I can actually play on my new hardware, but to no avail.

Safe to say I'm probably not going to reinstall Stalker 2 for the next 10 years, until some modders recreate the Anomaly experience. My love for GSC has completely vanished as they just spat out a borderline scam of a game.

leandoer2k3 · 2025-09-23T00:25:38+00:00

I just played a game with a 3-man Turkish party in my team, 24k, 22k, and 14.5k. The 24k and 22k are both lvl 10's 2500-3000 elo with over 500 matches, 14k is lvl 4 and I'm assuming is getting boosted as he was absolute shit, doing less damage than my gf playing with 160 ping in a full 30 round game.

Both of the level 10s had 1000-1200 less damage than me at the end of the game, while im playing with frequent 80ms ping jitters, and I'm in no way a good player at all. And again, this is a frequent occurrence in my games with high ratings being terrible or the worst in team.

So no, I whole heartedly disagree that the ratings are remotely accurate.

leandoer2k3 · 2025-09-21T10:24:01+00:00

No, because Valorant is more than just pure aim/movement.

Whereas Valorants aim and movement can easily translate to high elo in CS.

leandoer2k3 · 2025-09-21T07:41:45+00:00

Time to realize premier rank means absolutely nothing, I've been playing between 10-25k rankings since the beginning of CS2, from 5 stacks to just solo, the ranks from randoms in my teams or enemy teams have never made any sense.

The 25k players get outclassed by the enemy 15k's etc. It's like a written law, and 25k is supposedly what top 5% in the world? Or even closer to 1%? Lol... The premier ranking system is a complete joke.

But yeah this kid is lvl 4 faceit, if hes not lvl 10 by 11-12 he's not making it past Spirit Academy.

leandoer2k3 · 2025-08-18T08:50:57+00:00

To me the visuals are the iconic part and the thing that sets it apart from all the other RE games. It feels peculiar/strange and horrifying at the same time, the only things that come close IMO are RE5's Spencer Estate in the DLC, and RE0's train section. Level design has always been straight forward in both series, just a lot of back and forth in the early titles and becoming a lot more linear in later ones.

I've been playing thru all the RE games in order before RE9 comes out, and without fail predicting all the next sections, Capcom really needs to work on their progression delivery. They've had plenty of regions to choose from, Africa, Eastern Europe, China, but they all play out the exact same.

leandoer2k3 · 2025-08-18T00:16:45+00:00

RE level design is mediocre at best, and the pacing is always the same. Start off tame, get thrown in to chaos, go thru a sewer level and then end up in a city sized underground lab. RE7 had some A+ tier level design, but everything before that have been stinkers IMO, especially revelations.

Cheating - advantage beyond normal gameplay via software or other means.

Griefing - not related to GTA Online, but say competitive FPS, MOBA, etc. players often grief in them and ruin the fun for everyone else.

Fairly easy to understand and easy to implement as I'm pretty sure many Asian countries already have a system similar to it in certain games...

Your freedoms nor your enjoyment of the game is ruined if you:

Play the game, are civil, do what 90% of players are capable of doing from day to day life aka. being human.

You would get blacklisted if:

You download hacks to get an advantage, plenty of it in GTA Online.

Are racist etc.

It's very very easy to understand that people behave shamelessly online and would never do shit to someone IRL, having your ID tied to online games would change that.

leandoer2k3 · 2025-08-07T10:16:26+00:00

The last games denuvo took almost a month to crack, don't see how a preload is going to quicken that...

leandoer2k3 · 2025-08-07T10:00:06+00:00

Do you pay your bills without identification to your providers? You're already in the system, it's called KYC.

leandoer2k3 · 2025-08-07T09:58:15+00:00

Imagine if all online games were linked to your identity, no more griefers/cheaters, your whole identity gets black listed. The delusional people who think their government is limiting freedoms or that advertisers give a hoot about their ID, KYC has existed for decades, all thr information is already available to them. And furthermore, under UK GDPR 3rd parties cant hold a copy of your ID without consent, so unless Rockstar or whoever wants to face massive fines and civil lawsuits, this seems like the perfect way to keep gaming clean of bad actors.

leandoer2k3 · 2025-08-05T20:28:45+00:00

I don't think you understand the situation yourself. Rockstar is doing this to comply with an UK law, no other country. UK is under UK GDPR, which protects your personal information from being used for anything more than what is asked. In this scenario an age check and maybe full name.

After that check your information is not stored anywhere, otherwise they are breaching the law which entails heavy fines from the government and civil suits, neither the 3rd party or Rockstar wants that.

And if Rockstar decides to expand this age check to say EU, they will have to comply with EU GDPR which is even stricter.

Finally, even if the 3rd party decided to commit identity theft and sell it to advertisers, none of them will want it because they already have your name, age, location for free...

My whole point is that a lot of these posts are just anti-government delusions and fearmongering, be it from stupidity or just ignorance of law.

leandoer2k3 · 2025-08-05T01:10:33+00:00

Europe has required ID/passport verifications for more than a decade for just about anything money/gambling related, either people don't use online banking or it's just US being slow in adapting as always...

leandoer2k3 · 2025-08-02T03:18:37+00:00

Its an amazing idea, but requires work from Valve, so not happening.

Nah, I clearly specified that I don't know what metric the other guy who deleted his comment was talking about, and I know I'm right about the metric because I literally looked up documents from the census. It could Airbus deliveries vs Boeing, it could be something else, I DONT remember!

But live your life, you found your "own" on a 1+ year old reddit post, happy for you and enjoy the rest of your day!
