CS:GO Discussion

for some reason, a nice break from csgo and I have returned with the ability to play to an adequate standard.

ranked up fairly easily to MG2 this evening. around 5 wins with top frag and mvp on most games. wasnt feeling it a few months back but I really enjoyed playing the last few days.

got this relatively unexciting ace this evening too. really shouldn't have missed the first shot on the last guy but apart from that it was alright. ish.

Yes same thing for me, I have been told a few times its because a huge amount of cheaters got banned.

They've indeed

VOLVO said:
[MISC]
– Added trace-based visibility checks to prevent networking invisible enemy players.
– Updated CSGO engine to the latest Steam API SDK.
– Improved support for integrated web browser MOTD popups.
– Fixed several server-crashing exploits.
– Fixed voice chat echo in lobby.
– Re-enabled a bunch of player model variants including the much missed Balkan “Ido” model, otherwise known as tm_balkan_variantC.
– Added a convar (sv_disable_immunity_alpha) that when set, allows mods to handle their own alpha on players.
– Limited support for FBX in studiomdl.
– Added sv_vote_to_changelevel_before_match_point (default 0, vote is never disallowed). When set to 1, the vote to change level is disabled after a team has reached match point.
 
Already got my money back from the operation pass, got a case and sold it at £7. New knife looks awful, like a flip knife but worse and the animation is bad too.

I've just watched it youtube and I quite like it to be honest.

Kinda comical a few of us were talking about when the next mission would be last night
 
Hi Guys, wondering if I can pick some brains with CS:GO performance.

My FPS since owning the machine has been 220 - 299fps on max settings @ 1080 res.

As of last night, my FPS, over the course of about 15-20 minutes diminishes to about 100fps, it's still playable, but a hugely noticable difference over the higher FPS, particuarly when I'm running at 144hz on my BenQ XL2411Z monitor.

If I alt tab to windows and back into the game, it's absolutely fine for another 15-20 minutes.

Everything is at stock, temps are fine, running the latest AMD drivers, here is my spec;

- 4790k @ stock (4.4boost)
- Sapphire R9 290 Vapor-X
- 16gb Hyper X @ 2400mhz
- Gigabyte Gaming-7
- Samsung evo 850
- Win7 home premium sp1

I'm hoping it's related to the update, was absolutely fine before!! Nothing on my machine has changed. Any ideas, or is anyone else seeing the same thing?

From my experiance AMD cards aren't flavoured by source engine, that's why so many go for Nvidia. But for me after the update the performance has increased and the textures seem to be more clearer on stretched res.
 
haven't tested new update yet as at work.

not too sure if i am going to bother with the operation, has anyone had chance to look at the new maps?
 
How long will this new operation run for?
I have been told that you can make the money back from these by just selling the first couple of cases you get at the beginning.

Source has very little to do with the gfx card and almost everything to do with CPU power.

Have a look at if something was running in the background using up CPU power and check your power options to make sure you've not gone to power saving mode by accident.
 
Well Tommy most launch options give negative affects such as the one I posted. Basically something is very wrong with your system if you aren't getting a solid 300fps with that setup. I have a 4770k @ 4.5, 8GB 2133Mhz RAM and a GTX680 (volt modded ofc) and I get easy 300+.

Were you by any chance playing one of the new maps or something like Cobblestone rather than the usual suspects? Cbble and Train give really low fps compared to most maps.
 
Wow, used to play vs TLR a long time ago and you even casted one of my matches haha.

Sorry for late reply,

Must have been around 2008 I guess? Whenever I joined the forum, hence the name ( I should really change it)

I haven't played TF2 properly in a long time, though I have the odd game of CS:GO recently with around 200 hours or so in total I think (I was originally a TFC and CS Beta X player - wow I'm old)

Add me up, I'm sure we will be able to play some time.

PS. Anyway to actually stop playing with blatent wallhackers? Ranked up to LEM, 3 games since with 3 wallhackers.
 
Beta you still got a link to the cast? Wanna see Cookeh being a noob!!!!!

Ah yes welcome to LEM, since I got LEM I have played about 4 MM games, 3 blatant cheaters and on the 4th match which seemed to be fine I had to leave after 8 rounds to go on a booty call so can't really complain there.
