My PC isn’t high-end, but I used to have 200+ fps, now I struggle to go above 100, and the gameplay doesn’t feel smooth at all. I barely play CS because of that.

Personally I can’t say I’ve experienced that big of a drop in FPS since launch. I’m still getting around 250 but I’ve noticed that my 1% lows got lower the last couple months. It’s nowhere near 30-40% lower tho
cosmictrigger01
biggest reason im almost not playing the game anymore. a few matches here and there. its just doesnt feel good to play when your mouse movment is sluggish because of inconsistent fps. compared to csgo where everything was buttery smooth is just not good.

The linux build has degraded so horribly. At launch I got 180 fps consistently (1660 ti). Atm it often dropps to 2-digits and gameplay is not smooth at all.
Fun_Philosopher_2535
If the game didn’t drop cases or just went back to 0.03 cents like it used to be before 2019.
I can guarantee the game will see 50% player drop
I have video recorded atleast 10 different full DM case farming lobby happening in Singapore server in last 2 day and sent them to CS2 email
I wonder how these millions of daily players are actually real players

Back when CS released I told people performance would not get better, quite the opposite actually and people downvoted me

Played deadlock Lowest settings ( which allow you to lower literally every fps heavy settings )
300 fps
Highest possible settings
90 fps
That’s how much difference between low and High settings in deadlock is cause its so customizable and literally allow you to play in full potato mode
The difference between lowest and highest settings is so minimal it really doesn’t help the low end players at all.
This game is radically user unfriendly and it even patched some video.cfg editor Which would squeeze few more fps and stable frame times
Deadlock is far better performance wise. Feels like made by 2 different company
EDITED ( Its not argument about which game give most FPS but which game is more user friendly to LOW END PC, Dealock lowest settings can boost FPS to level CS2 can only dream off cause it literally allow you turn off every heavy settings and reduce more cpu/gpu stress )

Now play a CSGO map, like cobble or train, fps is insanely high compared to newer source 2 ports.

The biggest kick in the teeth is how all thru csgo valve said 128tick servers would alienate low/mid pcs…. or maybe it was speculation from content creators about ‘128tick wen’
mmmmiksu
oh no only 460 fps
Gahtoh
fps is not a linear metric and he is loading a map that added a lot more stuff than the version 1 year ago.

This needs to be fixed

For the first time in 10 years i think i can get over my cs addiction, already sold my inventory for new games! Cant wait for Wukong and Ragnarok on PC
rAg99fps
5800X3D, RTX3070, M.2 SSD, 3600MHz cl16 RAM. 500+ fps, but intermittent stutters (freeze screen, dead) when peeking/being peeked on Anubis and Ancient especially (very noticeable on these 2 maps).

CS2 was big mistake

DM is unplayable as the frames drop over time
Brazenology
Call me crazy but these pro players are straight ALIENS if they can tell the difference between 460 and 700 frames.

5700x and my 1% lows are ass since forever. Volvo needs to fix game
niked47
Its weird I get 300-400 fps on inferno A apps area playing with bots but with real players my fps will drop to 140ish in that particular area.
moonspycowboy
During csgo I had a 1070 that would get 200+ constant and now I have a 3080 and can’t get 200 constant in cs2. If you couple the cheaters and how poorly this game is optimized, it’s almost unplayable

I wish CS2 playerbase declined by a lot so valve would move their ass to fix their shitty game

Just have Ryzen 9800X3D + RTX 4090 + 32 Gb of 6400mhz ram + NVMe SSD

CSGO, the best game in the franchise, as well as the only one to get removed/replaced

Bruh, I’ve been playing since counter strike was a mod for half life. Never had serious fps issues on low-end rigs as in cs2, I have a mid range rig atm and are not gonna spend money on a new rig just to play my favourite game. Tbh I’m just gonna suck it up and hope they’ll improve it. I’m aware that the new engine takes a lot more, but more “demanding” games runs better than cs as it is

Valve does not care, keep renting skins or buying

460 fps is literally unplayable
Imagine playing on 450fps like a pleb
