I played Valorant with a friend. Didn't like it much as I prefer CS2 as I am tired of ability shooters. However, one thing I really liked about Valorant was the number of gamemodes available. CS2's gamemodes rn are so limited. I wish we had team deathmatch, a "spike rush" like gamemode in CS2 instead of the 10v10 casual, and the community servers again. I am still not great at CS2, so I wish these gamemodes existed so I can get a better feel for the game. Deathmatch I can't really learn how to 1v1 cause I get shot in the back when I spawn. In casual there are too many players to get players used to the 5v5 competitive modes. At the moment CS2 is not newbie friendly

[@nnoir]

I treat casual 10v10 like those Yprac maps if you've seen them. Literally jiggle peak every angle possible and imagine there's someone there. Thing about casual is enemies hold the most obvious (Strong) angles to compensate for their lower skill level. Thats perfect for practice entry fragging and fighting since there is peekers advantage.

I've spend years on cs servers and faceit servers. And I have always had issues with how little Valve actually does for us. You can't even check your average KD and stuff in cs. It's just painful to see that shit in one of the biggest esports. Guns in csgo are btter because it's real guns. That's honestly it. Everyone who keeps saying there is no spray pattern in valorant is lying. There is a base pattern that is being followed, but you bullets may deviate a little. you always have the same pattern, but you just have to "get lucky" with bullet placements. This makes the game a lot more difficult and combine that with the tickrate and lack of cheaters, and you have better gunplay in valorant.... And lastly, I really like how you tried to be as non-biased as possible. I really think 99% of the cs players don't want to play valorant, because they are scared they'll enjoy it or scared they won't be perma top score anymore. Which was honestly one of the reasons I didn't want to touch valorant for a long time. Once I decided to quit csgo because of the horrible community, I launced valorant and was met with nice people who actually trying to help me out as a starter. While it's human nature to compare alternatives I highly recommend jumping into Valorant and dropping the bitchboy bias the twitch chat has. If you look at Valorant as a standalone game, and not a copy of CSGO. The only reason people even call it a copy, is because it's a 5v5 shooter with a bomb.

[@zolkaa6618]

The spray pattern is random but you can somewhat control it still For example the Vandal (=AK) The only fix pattern is the first 5-6 bullets going up but after that its randomly gonna go left or right

Appreciate your neutrality. I agree with the ??? on graphics. Valorant takes inspiration from sci-fi and Anime, hence why the graphics look that way. Just a different style. CS2 does have beautiful water and smoke, though. Re skins, the Steam marketplace is genius, whereas Valorant only sells skins B2C... but, with the exception of the various knives, the CS skins are basically a coat of paint. The Valorant skins change the shape, animations, and behavior of the guns (although not in a way that would impact the outcome of a game). I think that aspect is worth considering.

For me, the biggest problem with CS2 seems to be the performance of my AMD system. I'm running a Ryzen 5 3600 CPU, RX 6700 XT GPU, and 16GB 3200 DDR4 RAM and I can't push the game beyond 100-144fps on a 4:3 aspect with the settings all set to low-mid. This really does seem to be an issue with CS2 because when I play OW2 or any other E-Sport title I get the frames that I'm expecting (around the 200-300 FPS range). So I very much hope that they will fix these issues soon because the game isn't really that fun when it's constantly dropping frames especially when you have a system like min that's not ultra overpowered but should be easily getting 200 or even 300+ FPS in CS.

Val got rid of trio and 4 stack in immortal because it's been a big problem of the trio and 4 stack not communicating to the random(s) on their team. Also, a 5 stack can play against a 5 stack or a 3+2 Also, for the skins section, I really think that it should be 2 categories: aesthetics and value. Valorant skins imo are much better aesthetically because of the unique sounds, passive effects, and some having finisher animations. However, CS skins are better in the value department because they aren't as expensive (technically) and you can actually get your money back from them. Then for community servers, why is it even a category when Valorant literally doesn't even have it? It just seems like he's trying to get CS points where they are the only game with the category integrated. Cheap category that shouldn't be there.

[@tornbreeze7467]

But claiming that cs skins are worth more is really daring. Even if the skins in Valo are more expensive, at least you know what skin you're getting for your money. In CS a skin can cost thousands of euros even though it's not worth nearly that much, simply because of those stupid boxes you have to open. So if you're lucky you'll get a skin cheaply and if you're unlucky you won't get a skin at all.

I do want to say that Valorant has a pretty good record of banning most cheaters before they hit high elo, but in lower elo you'll hit cheaters slightly more than 2/500 games. It takes the anti-cheat some time to identify cheaters, and even when they're identified they don't get banned right away, Riot tries to get them in waves so its harder for devs to identify what got their cheats penalized. If you grind your way to higher elo games, though, cheaters are quite rare I agree, its difficult for a cheater to climb that high without attracting lots of scrutiny. Also I want to add that because of inconsistent gun spray patterns, its a lot harder for cheaters to spinbot in valorant because holding down the trigger gives you random spread that the aimbot can't predict. Cheaters in Valorant have to tap fire, and will miss occasionally.

I've played from silver to high diamond (before asc) and while I've never hit Diamond my self, I got into those lobbies very quickly in the 20 ish games i played that one season. In all the levels it feels like nobody has any idea what their role is or what they are doing. At higher ranks they just peek a little better and click a little faster. I play Valo pretty inconsistently and this new season is the most I've played in a long while... but it all feels the same. In CS even on lower ranks you get good basic smoke linups and flashes from teammates pretty early on. Because well. They can't just instalock duelist and not think about it. Is there something I'm missing in Valo other than the LACK of outplay potential?

[@bobthegoat760]

@@csgo_in_blood6616 ''valo is higher IQ game". Literally the worst possible take you could make, valorant is noob friendly, you click the map to smoke, it is easier to hit shots, it is easier to play. The thing csgo did for 10 years+ is the basics, so they have been improved a ton to the point of having a lot of thought through it to be able to master it, unlike valorant where you dont actually need to learn line ups or anything. Talking from experience, csgo took me 2k+ hours to get into eagle while on valorant I took 10 days playing only a few matches a day to get to ascendant..

[@svain2925]

​@@jemlapLack of outplay potential is crazy. In CS, if you're in a 1vs3 and your enemies know how to trade what can you do? In Valo, you can play off your agent's abilities to possibly win that round (e.g. flashes, stuns, mollies) and you're saying Valo lacks outplay potential? Give me some of what you're having bro, that shit's wild.

I've been playing val since Act 1. Touched immortal 2 one time (I am hard stuck immo player). Never even seen that red "cheater detected" or "cheater was banned in a previous game" prompt.

[@7int199]

one of the biggest issues i actually noticed while playing valorant is that there are too many abilities and agents, Yea of course its causing for more meta changes and strategies being changed, but its so incredibly painful playing against a stun and flash heavy team it actually sometimes make me want to kms. I think valorant is a more strategic game vs csgo being a mechanic heavy game (aim, movement shit like that)

[@wjstreams]

the thing tho with Valorant with the abilities and agents, half of the agents have the same abilities as others but just in different forms (flashes on phoenix, skye, breach, yoru, etc. for example) and in CS, EVERYBODY can have a flash EVERY round if they want

[@shreksmeatballs9435]

As the other guy said, many of the abilities have the same concept. Everything falls in the same categories, they look different but perform the same function. And after a while you get used to every ability and understanding them/ countering them becomes second-hand knowledge. For a new player it can be intimidating but it gets much simpler with time.

[@pauloazuela8488]

While many a lot of their skills can be categorized but the problem if you're a noob like me. You'll be confused on whose who flashes or smokes in the enemy.

[@redpandasarecool3]

yea its annoying but u juest need to learn to play against somthing like that, every team has a weakness

[@primal9238]

Cheating is the main reason why I'm playing Valorant over other games. I don't like Valorant shooting mechanics. I would much prefer to play COD or Apex. But there's rampant cheating in both. Also some games like Apex and CS just have such a high skill ceiling to get started due to the long playing sweats. I want a new FPS that's a combo of COD shooting mechanics with Valorant strategty/abilities... and Valorant's cheating system.

[@neodinium7316]

Fr, valorant is so much easier for new players to get into.

[@Mr.Gentleman555]

I agree but i dont rll like the cs skins but the fact u sell skins gives the cs a point

[@nickmarker6069]

I think one of the big things that people don't understand (especially valorant kids) is that a lot of cs players love cs because of the rawness of the game and the consistency. IMO having a meta that doesn't evolve like valorant pushes cs players to use their brain more and more and increase their skill, instead of just trying to recognize when the meta changes and hopping on before other people. that is the overarching idea, I love counter-strike because it is extremely difficult but it is consistent and that makes it extremely rewarding. Even when I grinded valorant with my friends in 2020, I never felt anywhere close to as rewarded as I felt playing cs. Abilities, the fact that there is no skill to movement, random sprays, all of these things make the game less rewarding when you know it is more luck based. IMO I would honestly give the meta point to CS from the perspective of valuing the way cs pushes a players skill over just playing off of how the devs balance abilities and weapons. This is just my perspective as a CS player and I dont want disregard the fact that valorant clearly has a meta that changes and CS does not.

[@ipanesm]

about the chat ban, in valorant the chat and voice comms abuse ban is implemented LIVE in the matches, its common for it to happen that if someone is thrashin immediatelly afterwards they get comms banned for the rest of the match

[@ZulkSOD]

same happens for cheaters, the 3 games i have played with cheaters they get banned mid match and it doesnt effect your rank

[@subparpt]

Skins and Esports absolutely without a doubt go to CS. The rest is pretty valid, toxicity is debatable but any competitive gaming community will be ridiculously toxic.

[@insertmoney2189]

I think community goes to CS. The guy only points out how the cs community is toxic and that's why it's worse, but I disagree. I think the CS community, although toxic at time, has way more flavor. I mean just compare CS content creators to Valorant content creators there are so many legends. Content creators are representatives of the community and the fact that there are so many more entertaining ones in the CS community is enough for me to say CS has a better community than Valorant.

​@@larry8437its not even a debate, cs has skins that are universes ahead of valorant

[@gpfhantom1890]

@@shigarumo121 I disagree, a paint job over a gun shouldn't be considered a "skin" or should be sold at just ridiculous prices because it was difficult to get. CS has negatively impacted the minds of so many people because they gamble with loot boxes hoping to either get a useable skin or get a really rare skin so they can make profit. It becomes less about actually playing the game and becomes more so about just buying and selling skins, which shouldn't be what games should be. If you want to gamble, go to a casino in Las Vegas. Every time I see this debate come up, it just disappoints me more because people have been wired that way because of all the gambling to think that somehow it's good. I can't argue Valorant does it any better because skins are overpriced at times, but i prefer that over CS because it has no gambling in it.

[@itikuekuek]

@@YuzumiNoya How do skins that all look like bunch of recolors are universes ahead of Valorant? They're only expensive just because they are rare. "Oh wow, this bland blue skin is the same as the other skins, but it has some patch of gold colors on it, so it must be 4000$ now"

Anyone who thinks csgo skins looks better than val skins has to be brain dead

[@ghoulishgoober3122]

I think some of them do look nicer. It's important to remember one has real firearms while the other has guns loosely based on real ones. They can take more liberties and make the guns look even more loosely based on the real thing. For what csgo is and the guns it has, some of the skins are just really nice or silly. Like the banana pistol is funny to see, and the Asiimov skins are pretty clean. To think Valorant skins are better could also include the Valorant skins for Vandal and Classic that make them look like the AK and Glock from csgo. While plenty look nice in Valorant some I can see as being over the top, like the dragon guns.

[@habibidafeira]

​@@ghoulishgoober3122Of course some look better then Vals, the most overpriced gun skin on val (no knifes) its 52 euros, in csgo with 52 euros you buy shit weapons, you need like 200-1000 euros to a good skin

[@cooolhi6006]

Bad research

[@channel11121]

I would try out Valorant if it didn't feel so Sterile, with the Bomb being a "Spike", and the teams being "Attackers" and "Defenders". They just took the whole idea of counter-terrorism that started this genre and stripped out what it came from.

[@stuffido1536]

you're nitpicking so hard it's clear you're just completely biased

It's probably because Val took the format of the genre CS made and made their own iteration of it with their own stories and lore huuuhhhhh?
