Idk where the ow2 equivalent is coming from. They're not putting guns behind a battle pass or a twenty five games played well. It does suck those game modes disappeared but it's still a great game at it's core which ow2 is not.

The comparison is that it's a sequel that's technically an update that changes the game title.

Everything about this feels so "right". Especially the shooting and general weapon handling. One of these days I'll be decent enough to dip my toes into Classic play.

I need to play with some goons at some point. I just joined the Discord.

Oh yeah definitely. I waited until final release to see how certain things changed or not before buying some stuff. It's only been a few days and the prices keep trending down, especially stuff that was being hoarded like fades and dopplers. It was inevitable when everybody's advice was "don't sell until CS2 releases."

I have unboxed about 500 cases over the years. I do it for fun at the end of the week with a drop or if a friend donates me a case. I have unboxed 3 golds. 2 ok knives and a pair of amphibious MW gloves. So I am way ahead.

Since CS2 can now support opening cases prices are probably going to go up again. The player base opens stuff faster than the in game drop system and the beta slowed this down temporarily.

People who hoarded skins before CS2's release now selling, some panic selling because CS2's release is a little underwhelming, colours of certain knives look kind of stuffed atm especially dopplers. I think the knives' colour look nicer in CS2. It is a temporary dip, if I was in the market to buy something expensive (I am not) I would buy it now or soon before Valve corrects things or the maket corrects itself.

Honestly all the new dopplers look better except sapphires, which I'm convinced are just bugged. Look at a phase 3 (timestamp 3m20s) versus a sapphire (time stamp 3m50s) in this video and tell me that's not just the same texture on both. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SKBew3VxE6Q

The phase 3 in CSGO was a mix of green, blue and brown and you can still see it reflected in the CS2 version. Sapphires in CSGO were dark purple-ish blue but this is just the same green/blue/brown except it sells on 3rd party sites for as much as a car. Valve has made adjustments to skins with every patch this past week and I expect they aren't done.

Also wrt prices, I would expect a further dip around the Steam winter sale and especially if they release a new operation. I'm surprised we didn't get one with the CS2 release.

Yeah the move to CS2 still needs work. I don't really care much for dopplers since I don't own any but autotronic knives look kind of weird even though they have been adjusted. I have a rust coat Kara and before the full release it looked like the rust was polished rather than rust coating a polished surface. I do like the fact that skins from older collections don't look as scuffed (FAMAS Spitfire comes to mind) as they did in CSGO.

I'm surprised they didn't put out anything new for it. No new stickers, Cases, Operation, Maps, anything.

This has been baffling me all week as well. I think a lot of it is the server browser not working. I bet most of those people just want a retake or good DM to warmup on.

counter strike is an "esport" so i imagine the esports crowd wouldve gotten pissy if they changed the game too much in regards to maps and poo poo like that. people are already mad about having to re-learn lineups on italy iirc

Do you mean Inferno? Because from what I've seen, people have been nerding out about learning new Inferno. Like Valve literally made more changes to smokes to counter some of the nerd poo poo people were pulling off in the beta.

I prefer Valve devoting their resources in the move to CS2 rather then divide its attention. There are still missing maps and game modes from CSGO and launching an operation when the game still has less content than its predecessor would be a bad look.
