@@Tobi-wt4sh Because the games a mess, if you keep giving valve money whilst it's in the state it is, they're making money and the game is fine to them they have no incentive to fix or make it better. They're a business not a game developer in reality.
Why are you not bringing up all the case opening RUclipsrs as being a factor too? You are indirectly pouring fuel into the fire giving Valve zero reasons to fix the gameplay when you spend and influence several hundreds of thousands in case openings. And all the gambling/skinsite sponsors doesn't help the game too. It's a bit unfair pointing fingers on everybody else when you are, in my opinion, one of the biggest reasons why Valve isn't taking any actions.
'obviously cheaters tend to rank up quickly and cluster at high ELO' - I'd REALLY like to disagree with you there. I don't think that's obvious at all, especially if there's an apparatus actually banning them on occasion. I don't think they cluster. Skill levels vary for cheaters as well. Personally I would think most cheaters would be in the 4-7 range because that's where you start as a new account and they generally aren't around for the long-term.
Considering the rate at which they get banned is low, and the rate that they win (and by extension gain rank) is high, there is an argument for mostly high rated cheaters. As a low elo person myself (12k-15k depending) I can't say for certain I have encountered any cheaters. There has been some sus plays and people I could say MIGHT be cheating, but I have yet to play against a spinbot or an obvious waller. Side note I know what cheating looks like cause 10 years ago I was fucked around and found out. I have come to the conclusion that 3 things might be happening: 1) I am extremely lucky 2) The cheaters are not in my rank 3) The cheating problem is not as bad as people say it is. Skill issue.
I think that’s the issue… they’re not getting banned and are there long term, but I’m not 1000%. It just seems like that’s the whole point everyone’s getting at lol.
tldr big changes - people dislike the game/quit - sell skins - people who still like game/new players keep buying skins - prices stay the same / go up (also ban waves reduce supply - increased price on rare items)
im done with this game... I have 6 accs and before every match over 20k was with cheater, but NOW most of the games in even 12k-15k are with cheater -_-
My highest rank in matchmaking is silver elite, and I still get atleast 1 very obvious cheater every 7-9 or so matches. And I'm talking spin bots and blatant wall hacks. So while it's nothing like the high elo lobbies with literal multiple cheaters in every lobby. The cheating problem is still VERY bad in the lower ranks.
I am in Bangladesh .. Indian subcontinent .. silver 1 rank .. and I've never met a single cheater after CS2 was released . Always wondering where these cheaters are that everyone is talking about. Must be in Europe on higher ranks. My teammates and enemies are always either Indiana or Chinese players.
cheating only affects the top 10-20% of players in the game, majority of the playerbase doesnt even get cheaters because all cheaters are only in high elo lol
i would like that steam would add an better version for trading in the steam ui . since i could easily trade skins for skins with other people , this is something missing after the csgolounge ban :/ some years ago .
This was a great video, but one thing I think you got wrong is by saying the skins market ‘isn’t a normal market’. It may not be a traditional market, but it is definitely acting like a normal market. NOTE, by saying normal I’m not saying it’s perfectly efficient, what I’m saying is that there is no outside party setting the price of skins, it’s all controlled by supply and demand. There can totally be inefficiencies in it, especially where there LACKS diversity of opinion, take the housing market in 2007, everyone said it could NEVER burst, but it did, there was a lack of diversity of opinion, same scenarios can be found with steam skins.
I think it is also not dying because there is no panic sell like it was many years ago. Many ppl were panic selling top tier shit, and if someone panic sells items that costs the same as used car, someone who owns skins worth good bottle of vodka will also sell them. Rn there is no such behavior on market, yeah ppl quit Cs selling whole inventories rn but not on scale it happened before
Most of the playerbase sticks around because they feel like they need to give purpose to their investments. Those that never cared about their inventory nor the market don’t feel like they need to stick around, so they don’t.
A year ago I opened youtube and there is a guy who had live stream while cheating, I got his profile ID, report him , comment him, even added on my bookmark to report once in a while. Guess what, he is still playing....
Real reason just market manipulation and a small group of people (In comparison) being majority holders and not trying to let the CS2 Inflation prices fall
I think one reason why the player base is still growing with trust factor off is because. Cheats can more easily play with higher ranged people and the new legit accounts aren't forced to play with cheaters keeping them in the game
I have met only one spinboter and i've been playing since 2022 (1500h). 90% of cheaters that i met had wh and aimlock at best. And i experience 1-2 cheaters in 5-10 games. The problem with cheating is the same as in csgo when you will stop playing premier and start playing comp.
Skins are getting more expensive it's because mainly youtubers / content creators make contents out of opening cases and getting sponsors for them to make $. Shits will never getting cheaper if they are getting abused. CSGO is just a tool for them to make money, more followers and subscribers, the more followers the money they make. It's like you buy a set of tools, to fix shits or create stuff to generate money. It's a big pool of money, everyone can grab some. But for those who really enjoy game and buy the skin genuinely, sadly that won't work them. At least not anymore.
I just started a week ago I’m not a cheater but they are everywhere I don’t even try to play ranked my first day I saw someone get banned mid game after killing my whole team off spawn 6 rounds in a row
Cs back in the days (yes let's play for fun and don't look to the skins yay) cs now (Yo bro if you don't have a karambit/butterfly or a dlore it's not even fun to play) I see this game becoming a currency instead of an enjoyable game were people don't actually think they better because of the skins
casual players don't care about the problems most investors and nerds see. They just like the game and spend a bit of money on skins when they feel like it.

wm pre mg no cheaters after mg only cheaters
Im cheating at the moment.
I run chams because I got so fed up with the visual clarity in the game.
I pulled an inheritance last week. First skin I ever got worth more than 35 cents.
as I clicked to watch this I got an advertisement from one of the gambling sites saying that there prices for skins were at and all time low.

good video, stepped away from trading for the last few months, still got a few solid holdings but good to see that things arent all doom and gloom
Everyone knows they'll eventually make it playeable again and fix the surrounding issues this is how many big games start.
tldr big changes - people dislike the game/quit - sell skins - people who still like game/new players keep buying skins - prices stay the same / go up (also ban waves reduce supply - increased price on rare items)
I wish skins were cheaper, even in csgo many skins used to be a lot cheaper
Normally the prices should sink in summer. But this only will happen if valve won't fix the game before
That's because people didn't realize how hard and how much luck and money it takes to actually pull something nice from a case
There are lots of good cheap skins
I have not met a single cheater in my past 200 games.
I play silver 1 nuke to be fair
im done with this game... I have 6 accs and before every match over 20k was with cheater, but NOW most of the games in even 12k-15k are with cheater -_-
there’s a thing called FACEIT
I still haven’t bought a skin in counter strike
My highest rank in matchmaking is silver elite, and I still get atleast 1 very obvious cheater every 7-9 or so matches. And I'm talking spin bots and blatant wall hacks. So while it's nothing like the high elo lobbies with literal multiple cheaters in every lobby. The cheating problem is still VERY bad in the lower ranks.
Playerbase is up 4.3% over the last month, game is still growing and as long as that's happening, the skins market will remain stable.
I am in Bangladesh .. Indian subcontinent .. silver 1 rank .. and I've never met a single cheater after CS2 was released .
Always wondering where these cheaters are that everyone is talking about.

Answered your question. You’re an Indian and in silver one.
cheating only affects the top 10-20% of players in the game, majority of the playerbase doesnt even get cheaters because all cheaters are only in high elo lol
I just accidentally bought a shit float jawbreaker for double the market price I'm PISSED
Let's be honest if csgo & cs2 were seperate games, no one would be playing cs2 with the problems it has now
True I would have went back they knew what they were doing after the cs source and 1.6 debacle
i would like that steam would add an better version for trading in the steam ui . since i could easily trade skins for skins with other people , this is something missing after the csgolounge ban :/ some years ago .
Anticheat is basically the only problem with cs2, if you play faceit, it is basically just csgo with a bit more crashing

They're gonna fix the game eventually. People are holding on to their skins.
when more ppl leave the game, less supply of skins, more higher prices
Also less demand, meaning lower prices.
“Figgle it out”
I feel bad for Billy Bob...
Skin prices are probably never gonna go down for ages with the Chinese market and gambling sites
I can't really play cs 2 cause it does not run that well compared to go but I still keep my skins cause I like them
cs2 has a bigger problem than cheaters: they removed classic deathmatch and only left us with ffa
I don’t get to play the game
Much these days thank you for keeping people like me updated on the skins market
