The Neptune skin bundle has been widely regarded by the Valorant community as one of the best premium-tier bundles in the game. It included skins for the Spectre, Guardian, Shorty, Vandal alongside the Anchor Melee. Despite not having a finisher, the Neptune bundle garnered popularity due to its unique bullet sounds and the kill banner.

CS2 Servers are Still Running at 64 Tick Despite Valve’s Sub-Tick Claim: Report

CS2 Servers are Still Running at 64 Tick Despite Valve’s Sub-Tick Claim: Report

The gaming community has always been divided over the optimal tick rate for Counter-Strike servers. With the introduction of CS2, this debate has been reignited. FACEIT, a renowned third-party matchmaking system, has revealed that its CS2 servers will operate at a 128 tick rate. In contrast, Valve’s official servers continue to run at 64 ticks. Despite Valve’s claims about their new sub-tick update system making these disparities irrelevant, the community remains divided.

Previously, former CSGO professional player, kennyS, shared his experience on FACEIT’s servers, noting the improved accuracy and responsiveness. He mentioned hitting shots that felt genuine and highlighted the precision of pistols and sprays. However, he also pondered if this was merely a placebo effect. Another significant concern raised was the AK-47’s performance on official servers, which many players found unreliable. Adjusting the “cl_updaterate” to 128 seemed to rectify this, further fueling the argument for 128 tick servers.

FACEIT 128 subtick confirmed
byu/MmX_A_ inGlobalOffensive

ThourCS, a prominent figure in the gaming community, recently confirmed on Twitter that Valve continues to use 64 tick servers for their Matchmaking services. The difference in tick rates essentially means that FACEIT’s servers refresh game data twice as fast as Valve’s, potentially offering a smoother gaming experience.

Valve’s sub-tick server claim in matchmaking is now under scrutiny and the community is apparently not happy with it. Historically, the CSGO player base has preferred third-party systems like FACEIT and ESEA, especially at higher levels of play because of their 128 tick servers and sophisticated anti-cheat system.

We haven’t yet received any official comment from Valve.

How’s your experience playing on the official matchmaking server in CS2? Let us know in the comment section below.

What Happened to Earth in Starfield?

One of the most burning questions that Starfield fans and players alike have been pondering is: What exactly happened to Earth in Starfield? Let’s delve deep into the game’s lore and uncover the mysteries surrounding our home planet.

Starfield, at its core, is a game that pushes the boundaries of exploration and discovery. However, amidst the vastness of space and the allure of unknown planets, the conspicuous absence of Earth is palpable. The game doesn’t handhold players with a clear narrative about Earth’s fate, leaving many to speculate and piece together the puzzle.

What Happened to Earth in Starfield?

  • A Cataclysmic Event: Some believe that a catastrophic event, possibly a natural disaster or a man-made calamity, rendered Earth uninhabitable. This theory suggests that humanity had to venture out into space in search of a new home.
  • Alien Invasion: Another popular theory is that Earth faced an invasion from extraterrestrial beings. The aftermath of such an invasion could have forced humans to flee and establish colonies elsewhere.
  • Self-Inflicted Wounds: Given the game’s futuristic setting, it’s plausible that advancements in technology and unchecked human ambitions led to Earth’s downfall. Whether it was nuclear warfare, unchecked AI, or environmental degradation, humanity might have been its own worst enemy.

Starfield, while not overtly revealing, does offer subtle hints and easter eggs for the keen-eyed player. Scraps of information, overheard conversations, and hidden lore within the game can provide clues to the discerning gamer.
