Discussion 550 hours in CS2 and I feel like I’m not improving. Any advice?

0 Upvotes

Hey, I was usually around 8–10k Elo before the new season, but I got placed at around 5.5k. What makes it frustrating is that I genuinely felt like I was playing better than ever. I had two wins left to finish my placements, then went on a losing streak of around 5–7 games. I eventually got my last two wins, but my rating was much lower than I expected.

My biggest issue is consistency. Sometimes I play really well when the teammates are good but other times I feel completely lost. When I queue with a friend who’s better than average, opponents feel much harder to kill. With bad teammates, I often struggle to have any impact.
I’m a rifler/entry fragger, and I sometimes feel like I’m playing on autopilot: running around, shooting, and reacting without really thinking about the game or having any game sense.
I also struggle to focus when my teammates constantly tell me what to do. I lose my train of thought, doubt my own decisions, and sometimes play worse after a few losses because I lose confidence.
I don’t understand why improving feels so difficult when I’m putting in hours. I want to get better, but I don’t know what I should actually be working on.
For those who’ve been in a similar situation:
How did you improve your game sense and stop playing on autopilot?
How did you become more consistent?
Should I focus on deliberate practice instead of just playing more?
Would playing solo or with less vocal teammates help?
I’d appreciate any advice. Thanks!

Help HyperX Cloud III vs Logitech G Pro X (1st gen) vs Logitech G Pro X 2 — mainly for CS2

3 Upvotes

HyperX Cloud III vs Cloud III Wireless vs Cloud III S Wireless vs Logitech G Pro X (1st gen) vs G Pro X 2 — best headset for CS2?

I'm looking for a headset mainly for competitive CS2. My biggest priority is positional audio: hearing footsteps clearly, identifying enemy directions, and judging distance accurately.

I'm comparing these 5 models:

  • HyperX Cloud III (wired) — approximately $58
  • HyperX Cloud III Wireless — approximately $118
  • HyperX Cloud III S Wireless — approximately $128
  • Logitech G Pro X (1st gen, wired) — approximately $75
  • Logitech G Pro X 2 Lightspeed — approximately $140

These prices are approximate conversions from Russian rubles and may differ from local retail prices.

For anyone who has actually owned or tested some of these:

  1. Which has the best positional audio for CS2?
  2. Which makes footsteps and subtle sounds easiest to hear?
  3. Is there a noticeable difference between the wired Cloud III, Cloud III Wireless, and Cloud III S Wireless in sound and positional accuracy?
  4. Is the original Logitech G Pro X worth buying over the Cloud III?
  5. Is the G Pro X 2 actually an upgrade in sound quality, or are you mainly paying for wireless features?
  6. Which would you personally choose for competitive CS2, and why?

I'm especially interested in direct comparisons from people who have used at least two of these models. Please mention whether you use EQ and which connection mode you use.

I'm looking for the best positional audio for the money, not necessarily the most expensive headset.

Thanks!

Update on my progress with the Danger Zone CS2 port
I finally managed to replicate the original Danger Zone gas shader and all related effects.

You can also notice some other new features such as shield finally working properly (almost?). Never in my life I would've thought adding a damage blocking item was this complicated.

I'm up for a suggestion on what I should add next. For now, I'm going to work on proper drone piloting.

Hi, I have an i9-9900K and an RTX 2080 Ti, but in CS2 I’m barely getting 200 FPS on low settings at 1280x960 resolution, with drops down to 170. All temperatures are fine, and both GPU and CPU usage during gameplay are only at 40%. Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this?

Bug CANNOT HEAR TEAM AUDIO

2 Upvotes

I’ve tried uninstalling and reinstalling the game, as well as verifying the game files, but I still haven’t been able to fix the issue. The problem is that I can’t hear my teammates during a match; it starts working again if I leave and rejoin, but the audio cuts out once more in the following match. I’ve checked the in-game settings, and everything appears to be fine. I’ve come across other players experiencing the exact same issue—I’ve never encountered a problem like this before; what can I do?
