I actually quite enjoy Overpass. :unsmith:

Throw d2 in reserves. That would be nice.

I thiiink it's another roadblock for smurfs. Who the gently caress would own more than one cell phone just for CS:GO?

Reserves

Supposedly they're reworking it like they did Nuke.

That patchnote was pretty drat shocking.. and regardless of what ended up leaving the Active Duty list I definitely thought they'd give nuke some more play time first before throwing it back in.

Yeah the point is not to stop it entirely but to make it more and more inconvenient to smurf.

You can't use VOIP and certain carriers. Apparently some people have had success with google voice and some have not.

Nuke was a fairly popular reserve map all the way up until the remake, so I think inferno will probably still be eminently queable for a good while still

you know, for a very long time i thought "what if vaccing an account would also prevent the credit card used for it from purchasing that game ever again?" to combat cheaters and smurfs, and force them to actually commit a serious crime if they want to gently caress up the game. Obviously that is retardedly orwellian, but i guess phone numbers are alright? I dunno, I bet there's super simple ways to circumvent this (relative's phone, friend's phone, etc)

still, I like it

i grew up on the blasted tundra, I've more than earned my right to love inferno and I'm already dead inside

But I'm also excited to see them make changes- if they give it the same treatment as train and nuke, I'll probably like a potential new version too

Inferno is a good map, nuke sucks poo poo.

Any map that makes you anxiously turn in circles because the enemy can come from literally anywhere is a bad map. It's pure luck to be facing the right way to defend a site.
