Cheaters in every lobby. I keep seeing people downplay or even outright deny the massive cheating problem that CS2 is facing. In basically every casual lobby I've joined there've been cheaters (and/or very suspicious players). And people want proof so I recorded my recent play session to show exactly how bad this problem is: within my first

Cheating in CS2 is out of hand. I do understand polishing the game is first priority, however currently I find myself demotivated to play, because the chance of running into cheaters is SO GREAT. What's the point in polishing the game if player base refuses to play the game due to a completely different reason? at least pro players could play

Having played CSGO for about 10--20 hours the past year, I felt like I had to check out CS2. My very game had blatant WH cheaters. Team all called it just like I did. I said bye, and they started flaming me for not finishing a competitive match. Off I went. Cheaters getting flamed less than those quitting to avoid it. I am not looking back.

Cheaters will always make tons of new accounts, put some of those on botting, and then boosting themselves in premiere and in mm So when you see over 1 million players, go into the game, you will find out that its not a game. It's just cheaters harvesting the game for cases and skins. The game is just a first person gambling platform.

Its really easy to cheat on faceit, just that the average player meets no cheaters since they are all high lvl. Same with premier. Cheaters are very rare in low ranks, but common in high ranks. Faceit ac has been the same for a long time, so cheaters have had a long time to develop cheats that bypass it. Reply reply.

Looking at posts even 3 months ago or older show that most people saying that cheating was a minor problem in CS2. Usually suggesting a skill difference. Now it is widely regarded to be a huge issue and barely anyone says it is not a problem, and rarely is it suggested to be a skill issue instead of a cheating one. When did this shift change?

He even thinks that pros and many streamers are cheating. I'm sorry OP but you are just not very good at the game. You could definitely improve if you stopped lying to yourself about literally everyone better than you being a cheaters. But with this mentality you will never get out of that rank, or have fun playing the game.

Back in csgo I get one cheater in like 20-30 games. Cs is much worse but still manageable. At 20k it's getting worse tho. Also Ppl mass report new accs. If some guy is going crazy in my game at 20k with less than 4 years worth of medal I report too.l because the chances of them being legit is so low. Every time I check demo and they are cheating.

I know TF2's community is smaller than that of CS2, but we've already managed to make plenty of noise, getting the CS2 community involved would improve Valve's chances of listening and everyone's of actually getting a functioning anti-cheat, or at least ruin Valve's PR enough to hopefully get their disgraced ass on the anti-cheat treadmill post
