| 21 | They still didn’t fix fastdownload from community servers...\r |
| 22 | \r |
| 23 | ** Firelfyyy\r |
| 24 | Yep still an issue for me as well... Hopefully they'll sort\r |
| 25 | it soon.\r |
| 26 | \r |
| 27 | ** PM_MOAR_NUDES\r |
| 28 | You know the workaround? It’s easy to use, but it’s just\r |
| 29 | beyond me that valve hasn’t just spent five minutes fixing\r |
| 30 | this\r |
| 31 | \r |
| 32 | ** Firelfyyy\r |
| 33 | I think so, care to share anyway.\r |
| 34 | Haven't actually bothered using it.\r |

| 48 | It’s painless to use I am out and about so I’ll\r |
| 49 | forget to find a link but it is shared in one of the\r |
| 50 | github bug tracker page for that isseu\r |

| 53 | If you remind me in like 1 hour i can post a link\r |

| 62 | This update almost made me want to reinstall but I'll wait\r |
| 63 | until this is fixed\r |
| 64 | \r |
| 65 | ** PM_MOAR_NUDES\r |
| 66 | Oddly there is a workaround created by a guy that makes\r |
| 67 | cheats for csgo\r |
| 68 | \r |
| 69 | ** whatyourereferringto\r |
| 70 | I've used that before but it's a little bit pathetic\r |
| 71 | this bug hasn't been fixed after 4+ years\r |
| 72 | \r |
| 73 | ** PM_MOAR_NUDES\r |
| 74 | True\r |

| 79 | Hey, my cheats are just a proof-of-concept! :)\r |

| 84 | ** TheSilentLink\r |
| 85 | This is great news! It finally fixes the bug where one core was\r |
| 86 | stuck at 100% all the time.\r |
| 87 | \r |
| 88 | ** Firelfyyy\r |
| 89 | Fuck I have to check this out!\r |
| 90 | \r |
| 91 | \r |
| 92 | ** dirtkiller23\r |
| 93 | I had like 60 average fps(ulletical's benchmark map) on\r |
| 94 | Scaleform,and panorama was on 45 av.fps.After this patch,i'm\r |
| 95 | hitting constant 60 fps.\r |
| 96 | \r |
| 97 | ** Firelfyyy\r |
| 98 | Good to know! I play c's pretty competitively so I have a\r |
| 99 | pretty beastly gaming pc yet having slightly less fps on\r |
| 100 | Linux than windows bothered me.\r |
| 101 | \r |
| 102 | ** Nakrule18\r |
| 103 | I just switched from windows to Linux and have only 100FPS\r |
| 104 | (240 before) on CSGO. Any idea what I’m doing wrong ? I\r |
| 105 | use an Optimus laptop with the latest nvidia driver and\r |
| 106 | bumblebee.\r |
| 107 | \r |
| 108 | ** Firelfyyy\r |
| 109 | Make sure compositing is turned off before launching\r |
| 110 | cs. Should do it automatically.\r |
| 111 | Make sure you have the latest driver.\r |
| 112 | Optimus shouldn't have such a large perf hit so maybe\r |
| 113 | not that.\r |
| 114 | Possibly your CPU isn't boosting as much under Linux.\r |
| 115 | Cs is very CPU based so having high individual core\r |
| 116 | counts can help heaps.\r |
| 117 | \r |
| 118 | ** Nakrule18\r |
| 119 | I will try this tonight, thank you. It is definitely\r |
| 120 | not a CPU issue (Razer Blade 2018 with six physical\r |
| 121 | cores).\r |
| 122 | In fact I was wondering if my laptop was using the\r |
| 123 | Nvidia card or the Intel IGP, as 100FPS when playing\r |
| 124 | CS with the lowest settings in 1024x768 should not\r |
| 125 | be possible with a GTX1060.\r |
| 126 | \r |
| 127 | ** Firelfyyy\r |
| 128 | Individual core speeds are more important, but\r |
| 129 | 100fps is still pretty low so you're probably\r |
| 130 | right there.\r |
| 131 | But yeah if Optimus isn't working properly that\r |
| 132 | sounds like a reasonable reason.\r |
| 133 | \r |
| 134 | ** Nakrule18\r |
| 135 | Do you know any way to check which card is\r |
| 136 | being used while playing ?\r |
| 137 | \r |
| 138 | ** Firelfyyy\r |
| 139 | No clue, don't play on laptops. Sorry!\r |
| 140 | \r |

| 148 | ** rebakis\r |
| 149 | I hope so, Performance really suffered with the Panorama update.\r |
| 150 | \r |
| 151 | ** gandalfx\r |
| 152 | Is boosting possible in casual now? That sounds dope!\r |
| 153 | \r |
| 154 | ** Firelfyyy\r |
| 155 | Yup!\r |

| 159 | Any tips for improving performance in Linux?\r |
| 160 | I have Ryzen 1600 @3.75Ghz.\r |
| 161 | I used to get between 250-350fps in competitive. Using Linux\r |
| 162 | that drops down to 120-200fps\r |
| 163 | Currently using -high as a launch option and setting the CPU\r |
| 164 | Guvnor in Terminal to performance\r |
| 165 | \r |
| 166 | ** TurnDownForTendies\r |
| 167 | Still getting less performance than windows but this is\r |
| 168 | significantly better than what it used to be for me. Maps used\r |
| 169 | to have big fps drops and now its a lot smoother.\r |
| 170 | \r |
| 171 | ** Atexrs\r |
| 172 | What about the bug I've had for years on gnome where alt tabbing\r |
| 173 | causes the games aspect ratio and resolution to get fucked up.\r |
| 174 | \r |
| 175 | ** jensreuterberg\r |
| 176 | Never had that problem myself, is it only on GNOME? And do\r |
| 177 | you set resolution in like launch options?\r |
| 178 | \r |
| 179 | \r |
| 180 | ** gandalfx\r |
| 181 | The comment symbolizes everything I hate about the CSGO\r |
| 182 | community: Always complaining. Valve could do nothing even a\r |
| 183 | fraction as horrible as the constant bitching of people who\r |
| 184 | want everything different but nothing changed.\r |
| 185 | \r |
| 186 | ** headless_cyborg\r |
| 187 | I like every CSGO update, it always makes something\r |
| 188 | better. I don't think I ever had a reason to complain. The\r |
| 189 | best update was adding Linux support in 2014 of course :)\r |
| 190 | \r |
| 191 | \r |
| 192 | ** jensreuterberg\r |
| 193 | Or obsessing about gambling and pro teams or pro's doing\r |
| 194 | things you'd expect pro's would do instead of talking\r |
| 195 | about the game, tactics etc.\r |
| 196 | \r |
| 197 | \r |
| 198 | ** 5had0w5talk3r\r |
| 199 | Man, fuck you. You don't know me or my positions. All I've\r |
| 200 | ever wanted was for Valve to stop regressing tech used in\r |
| 201 | their games in the name of "competitive balance". Before\r |
| 202 | you know it the game is going to be nothing but a\r |
| 203 | glorified 1.6. Bring proper physics simulation back to\r |
| 204 | games!\r |
| 205 | \r |
| 206 | ** Leopard1907\r |
| 207 | Positions?!\r |
| 208 | That is just a fucking game , what kind of position a\r |
| 209 | game can put you in?\r |
| 210 | \r |
| 211 | ** 5had0w5talk3r\r |
| 212 | Your position on aspects of the game (things you\r |
| 213 | like/dislike about and why). He's the one who\r |
| 214 | bundled me in with his strawman, anyway. I don't\r |
| 215 | understand why I'm getting shat on for saying I\r |
| 216 | don't like the direction GO took CS in. It's just an\r |
| 217 | opinion.\r |
| 218 | \r |
| 219 | ** Leopard1907\r |
| 220 | Of course it is an opinion and i respect it.\r |
| 221 | However saying someone to fuck you because of a\r |
| 222 | game is absurd.\r |
| 223 | \r |
| 224 | ** 5had0w5talk3r\r |
| 225 | His attitude was completely abrasive. I don't\r |
| 226 | like being shat on because I said I dislike\r |
| 227 | his favourite game.\r |
| 228 | \r |
| 229 | \r |
| 230 | \r |
| 231 | \r |
| 232 | \r |
| 233 | ** headless_cyborg\r |
| 234 | proper physics simulation\r |
| 235 | For trolls who want to cover the bomb with a barrel?\r |
| 236 | \r |
| 237 | ** 5had0w5talk3r\r |
| 238 | That was throwing the baby out with the bath water.\r |
| 239 | There's a million and one was to fix the problem:\r |
| 240 | make the bomb collideable with physics objects only,\r |
| 241 | improve placement of physics objects, make the bomb\r |
| 242 | LED glow through physics objects, etc. Instead Valve\r |
| 243 | took the easy shitty path that makes the game less\r |
| 244 | immersive.\r |
| 245 | Besides, realistically, what are the chances that\r |
| 246 | you can hide the bomb in a competitive match? You\r |
| 247 | have 1:55min to take a site and plant the bomb, with\r |
| 248 | 40sec to try to hide the bomb while (likely) down on\r |
| 249 | men and defend the site against enemies who are\r |
| 250 | going to be rushing you very soon. It's just not a\r |
| 251 | realistic scenario.\r |
| 252 | Games in general barely have any physics simulation\r |
| 253 | at all compared to games from 10-15 years ago, which\r |
| 254 | is deeply saddening and really ruins the immersion\r |
| 255 | into the game world. A more accurate simulation of\r |
| 256 | the world makes the game more realistic, thus more\r |
| 257 | immersive, thus more fun.\r |
