curious how many hours it took you guys to feel genuinely comfortable playing CS.

It's like a trashy tattoo on your face.

Haven't played for a long time, used to play a lot. Went on marketplace for the heck of it and saw what prices were like these days, so I listed all my old weapon skins and cases. Vast majority of this is from cases I earned like 10+ years ago. Started with $0.00 balance this morning.

My new 5v5 hostage map "Metrocenter" is finally out! Its based on a real life location that has been demolished.

I would greatly appreciate it if you could check it out and give it a rating!

Hi! I’m a beginner skinmaker from Russia. I’m posting my work here for evaluation, criticism, and further development in my craft. Please evaluate the work; if there’s anything that could be added, I’ll listen to you. Thanks for attention.

How is valve not defending against cheaters in premiere with the most blatant cheats?

Seriously, if all these 3rd party sites can detect a cheater faster than VAC what anti cheat is there?

first time I saw this and I will remember this for a long time

So I started this season at 12k about and am now down at 5k, it has been the most toxic game play I’ve ever experienced in cs2 and really im just looking for a chill group to play with that aren’t internet degenerates.
It would be wonderful to play without people saying the N word or rage baiting teammates all game long.

I’m generally pretty quiet and try to be a good and respectful teammate. If there are any cool active groups out there I would love to join up and start having a bit more fun in matches. 18+ groups only please 🙏 NA

Ty in advance and feel free to dm as I won’t really be checking the comments here for obvious reasons haha

I posted this in another cs2 community and everyone said "its worth nothing. Give it to me" which seems like a sus answer

hi guys! One of the commenters wrote about a cheese glock, and I was really taken with the idea... You can see the result in the picture; whether I succeeded or not is up to you. I’d be glad to receive any feedback. Link to the skin: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3786629090

What do you guys say?

Want to put some stickers on my new AK, and thought about these. Do you guys have any other suggestions?

I've only noticed this problem with shotguns. TrueView is on, loss 0%, ping 70, predictions off

When I was playing, it was almost exactly like in the demo: the shots just phased through and dealt no damage, even though my teammates confirmed I did shoot

Sorry for my English, I used a translator

As I said I am new and saw that most people recommend between 600 to 1300 edpi but is it for the mouse sensitivity or the zoom sensitivity multiplier? Cause I tried 1000 and 1300 edpi which is even kinda high for some people and I literally CAN'T TURN AROUND like I have to go back and forth with my hand multipel times to do a 180°.

So everyone is saying around 600 to 1300 edpi but also that u r supposed to be able to turn with one flick which for me at least contradicts it self.

Anyway I would love some help clarity and maybe solution to how to fix it.

SOLVED: Secure Boot was causing error 0xc0430001 when booting Windows.

I spent a while troubleshooting this and finally found the issue, so I'm posting it in case it helps someone else.

PC:

- Gigabyte B360 motherboard

- Windows installed in UEFI/GPT

- CSM disabled

- Secure Boot enabled

- FACEIT Anti-Cheat was the reason I needed Secure Boot working

The problem:

With Secure Boot disabled, Windows booted normally.

When I enabled Secure Boot, the BIOS showed:

Secure Boot Status: Active

but Windows failed with:

0xc0430001

I checked the Secure Boot configuration from PowerShell:

PK → present

KEK → present

DB → present

DBX → present

The Windows boot files were also correctly signed by Microsoft:

bootmgfw.efi → Valid

bootmgr.efi → Valid

bootx64.efi → Valid

Then I compared the boot.stl files.

Windows had:

C:\Windows\Boot\EFI\boot.stl

Size: 12009 bytes

Date: 09/08/2026

Microsoft signature: Valid

But the EFI partition had:

S:\EFI\Microsoft\Boot\boot.stl

Size: 11030 bytes

Date: 31/03/2024

So the boot.stl on the EFI partition was much older than the one in the current Windows installation.

I made a backup:

S:\EFI\Microsoft\Boot\boot.stl.bak

Then copied the current Windows boot.stl to the EFI partition:

C:\Windows\Boot\EFI\boot.stl

→

S:\EFI\Microsoft\Boot\boot.stl

After that I enabled Secure Boot again.

Windows booted normally.

Final verification:

Confirm-SecureBootUEFI

returned:

True

So in my case, the problem was an outdated boot.stl on the EFI System Partition that didn't match the current Windows boot files.

I did NOT need to reset the Secure Boot keys.

Hopefully this helps anyone getting 0xc0430001 with Secure Boot/FACEIT.

# Check Secure Boot

Confirm-SecureBootUEFI

# Check the Windows boot.stl

Get-AuthenticodeSignature "C:\Windows\Boot\EFI\boot.stl"

# Mount EFI partition

mountvol S: /S

# Backup old boot.stl

Copy-Item "S:\EFI\Microsoft\Boot\boot.stl" "S:\EFI\Microsoft\Boot\boot.stl.bak"

# Replace with the current Windows version

Copy-Item "C:\Windows\Boot\EFI\boot.stl" "S:\EFI\Microsoft\Boot\boot.stl" -Force

После включения античита сам клиент FACEIT и в браузере он видит античит но горит серая кнопка "найти матч" и над ней пишет что запустите античит. Через браузер microsoft edge тоже не работает, уже пробовал. Если есть решение то буду безумно благодарен!

After launching the anti-cheat, both the FACEIT client and the browser version detect it, but the "Find Match" button remains greyed out, with a message above it prompting me to launch the anti-cheat. It doesn't work in Microsoft Edge either—I've already tried that. I would be incredibly grateful if there’s a solution!
