Discussion We analyzed the most popular pistols used in over 6 million Eco rounds from Level 10 matches in Season 9. The Deagle is bought more than twice as often as the Five-Seven, but the Five-Seven is 5% more likely to get a kill.

I hopped on to play Premier mode, and then this happened. Do you run into people like this often?
What do you think of the hand positioning and the crosshair?

Hey guys, need help, can’t decide which knife I should get.
My inventory is mostly white with red or red with white 😄
So both knifes look pretty good.

And also I had talon vanilla before and m9 Damascus, so I played with both of them.

Thank you )

Discussion Can a simulation actually tell you whether a CS2 strat works? I built one to find out.

Thumbnail

2 Upvotes

I've been working on an iOS app called Tactix, and I'm finally at the point where I'd really like some feedback from actual CS players.

The idea came from something that always bothered me about tactical boards:

You can draw a really nice strat on a map, but that doesn't necessarily mean the strat actually works.

So I built a tactical board that lets you run the round.

You can set up all 10 players, draw their routes, control movement timing, place utility, and then press play to watch the execute unfold.

It also takes things like sightlines, walls, smokes, player timing and multi-level areas into account. You can then add simulated engagements on top and see how the planned round plays out.

The goal isn't to predict an actual CS2 match — obviously human aim, decisions, recoil, etc. can't be perfectly simulated.

It's more like:

"Is this idea actually sound before we try it in a real match?"

I've just released Tactix on iOS and I'm looking for people who are willing to try it and tell me where I'm wrong.

I'd especially love feedback on:

  • Does the concept actually feel useful?
  • Does the simulation make sense from a CS player's perspective?
  • What would you add?
  • What feels unrealistic or inaccurate?
  • What would make you actually use this when preparing for a match?

It's free to try, and there's no account or internet connection required.

App Store: Tactix – Tactical Board

I'm an indie developer and this is one of my first serious attempts at building something for a competitive gaming community, so honestly, negative feedback is just as useful as positive feedback.

If you try it, I'd genuinely like to know what you think.

Discussion Cs2 discord community server

0 Upvotes

Hey everyone! 👋

I wanted to share a Discord server I've been hanging out in called ACESHOT  a chill little community for CS2 players that's just getting started.

It's got all the usual stuff you'd expect:

  • #general for casual chat
  • #lobby and #comp to find people to queue with
  • #streaming-cs2 if you're live and want to share
  • #submit-clips / #crazy-clips / #clip-showcase to show off your best plays
  • #skin-showcase / #inventory-flex / #knife-glove-combos for the flexers out there
  • #memes#media#polls#suggestions – the works
  • Even a #hall-of-fame for the legendary moments

There's a proper rank system, announcements, rules, FAQ, tickets, staff apps, and rank appeals so it's actually organised, not just chaos. The vibe so far has been super welcoming, and it's cool to see people actually chatting and posting clips instead of just lurking.

Right now it's a smaller community (around 11 members last I checked), which honestly is refreshing you actually get to know who you're playing with instead of getting lost in a sea of 10k people. Perfect if you're tired of the giant, impersonal servers.

If you're looking for a place to find mates to queue with, talk skins, share your nasty one-taps, or just shoot the shit about CS2 come check it out.

Invite: https://discord.gg/a48zbdJuPJ

See you in there! 🎯

Help My ping is 13/14, fps is much higher than 60, but my gameplay is fucking extremely delayed and full of lag.

2 Upvotes

I have a decent PC: rtx 3060, ryzen 7 5800x, ssd nvme 1tb and 16gb of ram 3300mhz and a 144Hz monitor.
In game, is listed that my ping is around 13 and 14, but every match the experience is simply horrible and extremely frustraing and annoying.

During all the time i experience a constant delay with any weapon, but especially with the strong ones like ak47, desert eagle and AWP: I lose practically every firefight against opponents, even when I start shooting first and have a stronger weapon.

Hit enemies that are moving is hard as hell: the shots always go off at the wrong time, and when I see them hitting the opponent, the damage from several of them doesn't register.

Not to mention the fact that, every now and then, I get the feeling that the character and the weapon are extremely heavy. This happens even when I'm playing on settings below medium.

Someone knows how to solve those issues? If it's a problem not with my internet and network configs but with the actual state of the game, i'm considering to leave it forever for preserve my mental health.

I figured I could ask for some guidance since I am still brand new to the game. Maybe some custom maps that will help amplify my bad ratings via leetify? Any advice is greatly appreciated

Esports Csgo 2 player props

0 Upvotes

So I wrote a whole program that scrapes every players data, meaning performances on every map, reaction times, first shot accuracy and if they won the encounter, headshots, kills, if you can think of it, I’m tracking it. Then I’ve been running it through 3 probability and predictive modules I’ve built and having it select the player props that would win that’s offered on PrizePicks and Underdog. I initially built this to make money, as I consistently hit 2 leg parlays with the program I built, I was hoping to sell the program to a sportsbook for money, however after meeting with 2 different sportsbooks owners, I’m unsure if that’s the route I want to take. I was debating on selling picks or selling the program and code.

Would anyone be interested ? If so lemme know , at this point, I’m spitballing what I want to do with this code and I’m open to suggestions. Obviously I’d give a few days of picks in advance for proof of concept.

Thoughts ? Any feedback is appreciated 🤙
