Spunj does so well with this. So confident and just freestyle with the right questions. This is how setting videos need to be done. Setting the standard.

[@howyoudoin7354]

Yeah, totally. It also helps with his experience as a former cs pro where he asked specifics like the map zoom binds.

[@jd__9389]

Now this is content we want to see

[@delatroy]

Great now that I got the setup sorted, now all I need is 20,000 hours and god gifted talent

[@de_dust2.]

you're almost there, u just needa get the stuff u stated and u good to go

[@ihateeveryone8161]

Its not god given talent don't discredit him, that 20000 hours is proof its well earned talent not some luck of the draw bs.

[@ownagebox]

@@ihateeveryone8161 Its Talent, the 20k hours are because someone saw his talent and now he has to play all day

[@mustko999]

@@ihateeveryone8161 Exactly, to give a reason for their lack of skill and laziness people point the finger and say its god or/and they were born with it, "talent"... It really pisses me off the DISRESPECT they have towards such hard working, focused and determined people. I can't stand these people.

These are probably from before the community server update since niko mentioned the -insecure for aimbotz (before/early november). NiKo showed his current settings on stream a few days ago, nartouthere has a video on it. Just putting it out here if anyone is copying these.

[@lilcapo7131]

Btw i had an issue where i would miss easy long range shots because the screen looked to pixelated. Long story short the monitor was to close, im going to try to get a higher res monitor and put it close again and see if there is a difference

[@wennskogg]

LOL I had on quality instead of performance and nvidia reflex disabled. Just switched and also put particles on low and now it feels so much better. Thank you

[@wennskogg]

nevermind guys, cs2 is still laggy as shit. I miss csgo...

[@Mafiota10]

@@wennskogg same bro, I've played cs2 since the release first 2 months it felt sloppy then they fixed something I started playing normally like cs:go but now its terrible again... I truly miss csgo. Played with a lot of top 1000 ELO in Faceit and was 3K myself but now i cant barely drop 15kills game feels AWFUL AWFUL AWFUL . Maybe I should upgrade PC, I don't know.. but avg 200~ fps

[@wennskogg]

​@@Mafiota10 yeah same, average 200-250 but it drops so much close to smokes and molotovs and especially while spraying.. I thought Ryzen 5 5600X, 3060ti and 16gb 3200 MHz ram would be enough but maybe ryzen 5 is too weak for cs2

Could someone tell me what's covered in the book 'The Fundamentals of Counter Strike 2' that's available on Amazon? I've heard it delves deeply into the strategy and psychology behind the game. I'm curious to know if it also covers team tactics and how to improve individual performance. Has anyone had the chance to take a look? I'm thinking about buying it and wanted to know if it's worth it.

[@bloodya2h773]

he says he played with monitor display scalling setting on nvidia panel? but in the past we can see him showing same thing and is always on GPU scalling never showed using display. And can anyone explain me the REAL diference between GPU vs Monitor scalling? thanks I hope to see more pros videos like this nice job !

[@kennaee]

tl;dr just try them and see what you like the best. GPU scaling makes the graphics card to scale your non-native res to native by software and most of the time it just looks better since the software on GPUs is so far ahead of what monitors have in-built with them.
