It’s really wild that they straight up nuked CS:GO for this and it both performs worse on higher end machines (reports of stuttering when ragdolls activate or shaders load in are rampant) AND it’s missing the casual war games modes like Arms Race.

well they kinda had to nuke csgo as you can’t transfer in entories between games

the game is so fucked tho, on my 1060 I could play csgo at 1440p low at about 200fps, cs2 I’m lockynto get 100 on FSR performance

and zooming with scopes are fucked get about 300ms of stutter every time

They didn’t need to nuke it. Why not both

They probably didn’t want to split the players base

Nah, it’s mainly to transfer the Steam marketplace, I.E the thing that makes the most money for Valve out of Counter Strike.
