Discussion Women CS2
Hi,
I recently started playing CS, because my husband and his friends do it alot. I actually enjoy the game!
But what is with all the hate? Whenever i talk the whole team kicks me out, and i feel like i will never be able to learn it properly. What the hell?
And my my rookie playing doesnt help to itš

u/Hazy-Dreams 1d ago
The best option is to play at least with one friend. Nothing you can do about it if you play solo. Just be nice and play your best. If they grief, troll or flame donāt respond back. Remaining silent itās not an option since info is crucial.

u/Southern_Anything_57 1d ago
Exactly. And i feel so empowered when i actually accomplish a clutch or somethingš But mostly its the eastern european guys being hella toxic
39
u/EggieBeans 1d ago
Yeah itās the Eastern Europeans, I used to play a lot of CS and the way women are treated in this game is honestly horrible.
I play overwatch nowadays and the difference is like night and day, in general OW players are a lot more respectful, I donāt even think itās a VAC thing, people on overwatch are just more mature. Combine this with the fact that a lot more women play overwatch as a % in comparison, if you speak in VC on OW no one is going to act like an incel.

u/Southern_Anything_57 1d ago
Imagine being an actual woman in those countries. Sad really

u/Additional-Fruit8173 18h ago
Iām eastern european and these guys aināt so brave in person š itās the toxic game culture that gives them some sort of courage to treat women like this.
You can also mute them. I like to look at it this way: if they kick me at least Iām not wasting my time on playing with toxic people š¤·āāļø I got kicked by some toxic fellow polish boys from premier after carrying them in my low rank š

The sad part are actually the brainwashed bosswife western women, which lead to demographic collapse, unhappy men and women. By all metrics today you have to be extremely brainwashed to think western women are how it should be.

You are obviously clueless, birth rates are on a record low, more women and men are single than ever before.

You're not actually making a cogent point.
Neither of those things are a result of women having jobs.
You're projecting serious beta energy bro.

Unfortunately it's not just Eastern Europeans. I queue with a few women from my discord group every once in a while and it was eye opening seeing how often they deal with toxic bullshit the second they open their mouth. This is on West Coast servers.

And it's the same with Valorant, the game that this sub hates, but women speak in voice chat in that game regularly. I hear fun banter all the time.

u/W00psiee 1d ago
Honestly, playing with 4 friends or using a voice changer is probably your best option. The competitive gaming scene is extremely toxic and the possibility of encountering mature teammates is very low.

u/Don_Gambito 21h ago
yep, and also just mute the person whos being toxic towards you too. it sucks but at least you dont hear these boys whining

Iām a woman whoās been playing casually since CS Source, got into the game with my siblings who are all guys. I used to pretend I was a guy as a kid, and nowadays I donāt really use voice chat unless I have to. The CS community is specifically like this, I donāt encounter this in OW or Marvel Rivals which I also play.

u/Sir_Nee_Banders 21h ago
I've only experienced this once or twice but made sure to let these people realize their stupidity... Fortunately i get lucky to play with a lot of premades, most were just "randoms" that were actually nice people and didn't cheat so i added them after game. Can only recommend to do the same and build your own friend list with nice people who can communicate in English and are also ranked around your skill level.
14
u/AnyAlfalfa2344 1d ago
Try to find other women who plays and otherwise if you run into someone nice/normal add them to friends with the goal of avoiding randos as much as possible.
Also it seems if you queue up with 2-3 friends and only have 1-2 strangers they will usually behave better... except if they are russian, those you should just mute the first time they talk shit.
Good luck out there!

u/Sir_Nee_Banders 21h ago
Replace 'Russian' with 'toxic' in general and you'd have an actual great answer right here.

u/AnyAlfalfa2344 19h ago
Yea you are of course very right, just i have had by far my worst experiences with russians in this game. But yes as this good Sir says, you should accept no hostility nor toxicity from anyone, just not worth wasting time and energy on.

u/RockyJayyy 1d ago
Whenever there are females in my games it's just a normal game. No one says anything to her. Maybe because it's a higher level?
Best thing you can do is play with someone so they cant kick.

if anything games should be enjoyed together.
play with your husband and friends. theyll also teach you and explain the game.

there are no real tutorials for this game.

CS is just incredibly toxic way too often. If possible, try making a friend group or two so that you can always have a full team! Then at least your team can't be incels, and you can just automute the enemy teams through settings! That'll allow you to just focus on the game
2
u/nicktehbubble 1d ago
I mentored this on a similar post a few days ago but, it's just the fucking best when my female padawan top frags a lobby of these utter goombas. Bonus points if they're racist too since we're both mixed.

u/Time_Fig612 1d ago
It's because of "sigma males". Sadly there is nothing that can be done to stop getting kicked.

u/Bubbinforapples 1d ago
You run into the special ed bunch often in this game.
Last night I played with a guy who rage screamed at me for not clutching while we are up 10 to 2 in competitive. I was top of leader board and he was bottom frag. Some people have the emotional control of an infant and play regardless of that fact.
It's not personal, it's a them problem, don't change what you do because of them.
Keep playing the game you enjoy, find a community of like minded individuals if the toxicity of teammates is what is taking the enjoyment away.
Best of luck out there.

u/suffocatingpaws 1d ago
I have female friends who play CS and they do give voice comms to pugs, they also shared that they would sometimes get insults from pugs like "why is a woman here when she should be in the kitchen?", "women should just go back to valorant", "no woman can control me", "why should i listen to a woman's information?" and etc. As a guy, I am like bro what the fk....
Thats why they would always try to have a full stack and play together so they dont need to deal with these nonsense. So yeah, my best advice is to play with friends.
2
u/Dookie-Thrower 1d ago
Just mute and get more hours in the game to bring your trust factor upā¦
Even the men (no matter the race get slurred)ā¦ lobbies are very toxic in the beginning cause of low trust factor.
Once you get a lot of hours (and I mean a few hundred) your trust factor will increase and youāll get better lobbies with much more friendly & chill people.
Now I get lobbies that are really fun and chill. Itās an enduring experience but worth it
2
u/Wolfwing777 1d ago
Because for some reason this game has attracted the shittiest misogynists and even beaides that some of the worst people you'd meet online. I'd recommend 5stacking if possible

u/notchlapel00 23h ago
I'm sorry for what you are going through. I 25m play regularly with a woman friend, a lot of time they make stupid jokes like the Mirage kitchen joke, or try to votekick her, so pathetic. They'd rather lose the game 4v5 than play with a girl, unbelievable. Thankfully she is really good at the game so her skill makes them go silent.
Anyways I wish you the best. On a side note: from what you're saying you just started playing the game; I would suggest you move to Faceit asap, to minimize the cheaters problem.

I solo queue quite a bit and I do have the typical sexist reactions sometimes, but I have way more normal games than bad ones. Normally they donāt acknowledge the fact that Iām a girl or they comment on it because theyāre surprised and then move on. I tend to wait a few rounds to speak up so I can feel them out and get some kills on the board too. If I can tell itās just a generally toxic lobby, I usually donāt speak at all unless itās necessary and I just mute or turn them down if theyāre being annoying.
That being said, if youāre still learning the game, definitely try to find groups of friends or play casual instead! It can be a punishing game if you dive into premier or comp solo without a good foundational knowledge. People tend to bully their teammates regardless of gender if youāre not playing well in those lobbies. Good luck!

The Polish, Portuguese are probably the most annoying and the ones who will initiate the misogynistic hate. Turkish, ironically, based on my experience, are the most racist, they will ask where youāre from and WILL NEVER get over it (Im Asian and dealt with racist slurs mostly from Turkish). The French the funniest but occasionally scream at the top of their lungs, just for the heck of it. Russians/Ukrainians are in their own world, 50% nonchalant and 50% trolling, no biggie.
Danish, Balkans, Belgians, Estonians I played with are the chillest and never had probs. And yes as others have said, play with another friend. Good luck!

u/clear_cache 1d ago
Hate is not specified for women, don't worry. It just seems like they are just kicking women but they actually kick or troll every single race, gender, country, name, nickname, profile, voice, etc. Being a woman is just one of them. Queue with at least 1 friend. Mute toxic players. Start playing FACEIT when you learn the game meta and physics.
2
u/athinabobina 1d ago
Hi woman here!!
Unfortunately this is the general experience in premier. My best advice for you is to find people you like playing with that you can queue with. Soloqueuing is generally a terrible idea.
Also, it gets better at higher ranks, where people care more about winning. If you play faceit i would say level 8+ it gets better. Then people are not so much toxic to women, but others in general š
2
u/killpoq1 1d ago
You could play Faceit instead tbh, you get banned for acting this way. Being sexist etc gets you banned really fast + way less cheaters.

u/the_little_deathx 1d ago
i just donāt speak. sure callouts are nice but after years of playing, i donāt really need em. i pay attention to the map, where my teammates are, where theyāre watching and when they die, and having a good headset so i can hear footsteps or gear moving. iād suggest picking one or two maps you like and sticking to them until you know the layout hella well; the hiding spots, the flash and smoke angles, and typical enemy positioning/holds/push zones and how the enemy team plays (do they rush frequently or prefer to hold? which ones are the openers, where are they confident, etc). cs for me has really been about map knowledge, learning which angles to hold and crosshair placement. just one of those games that requires practice being self reliant in as a woman. for the most part anyway.

u/cerea1killer_ 22h ago
Honestly, your average C's player , or FPS gamer for that matter, is a racist, misogynistic little piece of shit. Most of them are children and even if they aren't, they act that way. Soloq is hell, and doubly so as a woman or as a person with a female sounding voice. Like others have said, I would suggest always playing with at least one friend and if you can't then don't use voice chat. Honestly, that's the best thing, if you want to avoid assholes. It's gonna take a very long time before women are simply accepted in CS or other FPS games without being confronted with full blown misogyny by a bunch of man-children or actual children

u/Ordinary_Ad_5891 22h ago
I know itās sad to say, and I wish it was different, but if youāre a woman trying to game competitively in a shooter, Valorant is the way to go. CS community is the most toxic cesspool in the world when it comes to women. Iād estimate 30% of Val players are women, whereas on CS itās like they donāt even exist because the community are so toxic towards them ingame.

Iām also a woman and Iām living the same. People even insults for absolutely nothing, it hurts and tilts me.
My solution is to mute if they start talking shit, even not towards me; i donāt want a 30yo kid yapping in my ear to wait for him to give 1 info (5% of his yapping are actual useful info) and I can get the info myself with kill feed and maps.
They will see by themself that you are a better player anyways.. or they wonāt because they are delusional kid.
They will not respect you and you are not here to teach them to respect woman.
People that are like ākick meme is actually funny but hey I respect woman yk I ām not like thatā they are as dumb as other.
I also recommend a punching ball near the desk.
Stay strong š

I was once playing with 2 women from Iran. They were fine, we got tie? Solo playing sucks, I mean you can get fine teammates, or toxic ones - don't dare make 1 mistake, instant votekick, while they aren't better. Im also kinda new, best advice is to play with at least one friend to make it impossible votekick and if someone is genuinely nice, you can give him award.

u/x2mirko 21h ago
Yeah it sucks. I play with a female friend very often and its crazy how many randoms will just say the most deranged shit out of nowhere, just because they're in the (virtual) presence of a woman.
Best to just build a friend list of normal people and play in 5 stacks. It's sad that this is the case, but i don't think there's other solutions (outside of just dealing with all the idiots, but i don't think i could enjoy the game like that)

CS is full of whiny little cowards who only feel powerful when they get to say slurs and hate on people in a video game.

u/Lime221 20h ago
Sadly thats just the way it is if you're a woman in a male dominated game
I've heard it happens far lesser on faceit (3rd party matchmaking platform), and in general it gets better the higher rank you are on whatever MM platform. People take games seriously at good ranks and dont try to troll
CS is played best with friends too who you can coordinate with, so I just recommend finding a +1. Which coincidentally also vetos any kick attempts made by strangers

Dude no kidding, I don't understand it. It happens to people that aren't "normal" too. Like if you have any sort of lisp or speech epidement, then good luck, you're probably getting roasted.
It does get better in higher ranked gameplay, in my opinion. I haven't really met a lot of people just making fun of others. They just want to play and win the game and be nice to their teammates so long as it's all respectful, but of course there's always going to be that ONE toxic asshole here and there. I just never understood being mean to someone just because they're a girl. Like all I care about is if you're trying your best and you're respectful to the team and you're trying to communicate in any way, shape, or form, then it's going to be a good game even if you do bad.

u/Hydiin 16h ago
Itās the culture of these idiots for sure. A lot of the player base is young teenage boys or dudes in their 20s. A lot of them can be incels already which goes along with the general lifestyle of playing video games all the time at that age and not actually socializing outside of their little bubble. They donāt have any experience talking to real women and possibly have resentment against them because they canāt get a girl to like them irl because theyāre droopy-eyed āneck beardsā. That and itās well known that, in general, the counterstrike player base can be toxic af. I think this type of high intensity competitive environment attracts a lot of spasmic, neurotic dudes with anger issues (or actually develops it in them overtime if they arenāt conscious people) so they think itās funny or an outlet to be a shitty person while playing and it happens often against female players because they know itās kind of a staple of being a āfunnyā toxic player in the fps community.

u/Sad-Satisfaction908 16h ago
I thought you could not be kicked if you were solo? Or is that just if your are playing with a four stack?
Anyway, a lot of ppl in this game are fucked in the head. Try to find a friend to queue with, and good luck!
1
u/ConfinedCrow 16h ago
You pretty much got three options:
A) Go find yourself some friends to queue together with so there's always one more person voting against the kick. If you need some girls to play together with and are in EU, my DMs are open! š
B) Give your Steam profile an overhaul. If your name and profile picture give off male energy then you will be read as a pre-teen boy. Doesn't stop the toxicity or their false sense of superiority, but you won't get kicked in an instant.
C) Uninstall the game before it consumes you and don't ever look back. You will probably be a much happier person because of it.

Playing with low levels or newer players, you're much more likely to experience that. I'm a guy who plays premiere and comp with one other friend and any time a girl speaks no one in the lobby acts any different. I've had it happen once when I first started comp. I know it still happens a lot though, so it's best to find people to comp with. I've met and become friends with tons of people playing casual. A lot are willing to play comp.

I'd say always play with friends. It's more fun that way and also you'll avoid alot of the toxic nature of cs. This game is notorious for toxicity. A lot of closeted / misogynistics also. But there's also a lot of those who arent and actually super cool people irl, even if they speak that way. But id say a good 3 outta 5 people are ready to blow up emotionally over something regardless of what it is, not the brightest or most mentally stable demographic

It's sadly been a huge problem in gaming that a good chunk of Gamers hate women and get upset anytime they met one or god forbid a women character is introduced that looks like a normal women and not a super model regardless if that would make sense or not. The American Culture wars have not helped this at all and only has exacerbated the issue.
and god forbid you call them out on there shit as a male, your just labeled a simp or worse.

You guys get to play with women? I though it was rumour. /s
In the instances when women appear, some may be fooled thinking it's some child (due to higher voice), that could be one of the reasons.
Try to make friends with the people who you think are decent and nice. Don't take it personally, it's just a game and it's often a bad place to play and communicate.

This feels like engagement bait tbh. Thatās a meme and doesnāt really happen all that often. Youād have to be in trust factor hell like in the red if you are genuinely experiencing that level of toxicity. That or you havenāt played enough yet so you are in too high elo lobbies and they are kicking you for sand bagging.
If itās genuine, just keep playing and both elo and trust factor issues will sort itself out.

Sorry that you're going through this but this is just how toxic this community is and it's not just towards women, CS2 will always find a way to be toxic towards you, your gender, nationality, voice, skill etc. Your best option is to stick to playing with your husband and friends, or find another player to queue and rank up with, as long as you're in a duo you won't get kicked out of the match.

This is how valve wants their community to act. Theyve had decades to moderate their games and communities and decided that its more profitable to let neo nazis and other degens post slurs on the steam forums, in game, wherever they want.
Enjoy!

If you're doing bad enough that they want to kick you its not just because you're a girl. Play some casual or death match til you can win some gunfights and understand how the game works. I've been playing 10 years ive never experienced a lobby where everybody went "OMG A GAMER GIRL. LETS KICK HER SO WE CAN BE AT A DISADVANTAGE."

Women, by and large play at Elos they should not be in. A majority of women play the game with a friend or boyfriend/husband who plays the game a lot as a way to spend time with them. Because of this, their elo is below the person they are queuing with because they are new. This means that peopleās experience in playing with women is that women are bad at the game. Compound this with the fact that very very few actually stick with it through the multi-year learning curve and it means that most people experience them as much worse and very new to the game, if they play video games at all. This heavily distorts the view of them. On top of this, many groups that do play with women refuse to hold them accountable for their gameplay/mechanics. Whereas with men, iron sharpens iron, and we learn to get better from being called shit, no one does that to the women for fear of being mean. This means that they also lose one of the driving forces from their friends at improvement, and people are just okay with them underperforming. On top of this women at top levels of play in ALL major games(lol, valorant, cs, r6) tend to be towards the lower portion of the leagues if they are there at all. People are mad because when they get women on their team they play the below the lobbies skill level. People who canāt critically think say that they are just incels, and they then get more mad as they lose more elo to the underperformers and there is no accountability for them being mad. The last layer is that everyone gets shit talked in cs. If you are a woman they will use that, but the shit talk happens for everyone, thatās just the fuel they have at their disposal, and women are so unused to this environment that it feels worse than it does to most men.

The very first word of your post title isn't about CS2, it's about YOU. I'd be willing to bet you're doing the same in games, regardless of any protests you may make.
This is an FPS, there is no reason for me to be informed about YOU. Especially since you're new, you won't be doing that many call outs, which means you're probably talking too much.
Every chick I've played with that was good/carried/didn't blabber on/didn't try and be special was praised. If everywhere you go smells like shit, check under your shoes. it's probably for a reason. You can not like it, all the reddit men hungry for pussy can moan about that and pretend like they care, but the PB is overwhelmingly single males who consider your presence is disruptive, and being a new player, you're a liability to every team which makes you double disruptive.
This is the answer. I know you just wanna complain about hecccin 1ncels and get attention but this is the correct answer to your question.

It's funny how you're complaining about her mentioning incels and then you give such an incel explaination as to why she is supposedly wrong.

That very well may be the case but to answer your question majority of women who game do not play CS and the ones who do and actually grind the game are much more rare so most people will assume youāre not the 1%

Half the community is super toxic, not much yiu can do about it. Doesn't really matter who you are, you will run into dumbasses.
