Decided to give cs2 a shot, probably haven't played CS since shortly after csgo was released. Community seems worse, but do those reflexes kick back in even when you're an old man, and hearing the laments from young people as you mop the floor with them is an unexpected joy.

I haven’t played CS2 yet, but since it’s an update/expansion/molting of CSGO, you’re going to have a rough time with the community until you’re out of “silver hell”. Once you rank up enough that you’ve gotten away from the spamming kiddies and smurfs, it’s a better time. At least until you reach ultra high rank where people start taking the game too seriously, but floating between Gold Nova and Master Guardian 1 ranks is the most fun place to be.
