CSGO down in the US

On December 2, CSGO players across the United States reported outages of the game servers. It’s still unclear what caused the outage, but it could be due to a number of reasons.

The first and a common cause of server outages is a new update. When a new update is shipped to the game, the servers can go down for a short while. However, in case of an update, the servers can be up quite quickly.

Another reason behind server outages may be a technical fault in Valve’s servers. This is very unlikely to happen but has happened on more than one occasion in the past.
