The CSS and Go community browsers were ENTIRELY unusable as of a year ago. Seemed like it's been going on for a long time. Thanks for the tips about those external server browsers though, didn't even know that existed!
6:49 - Gametracker doesn’t have an official support for CS2 servers but they can be found in Counter Strike Global Offensive tab. Anyway thanks for making this video. CS2browser should be more known to community cause steam browser is currently unusable because of those fake servers. I recently started my own little test server and if it wasn’t an unique mode, it would probably be empty.
This explains why I had such a hard time trying to get into CS 1.6. Every single XX/32 server with de_dust 2 just pushes you into a random modded server with fake ping. Tips: Use gametracker and set the country to where you know you'll have decent ping - game tracker reduces redirects by 75%. Write "ping" in the console to see your true ping, and whether or not players are actually bots.
Where the problem is worst is a matter of perspective. CS2 players can completely ignore the community browser and play matchmaking/official modes. Games like CS:S have nothing but the community servers. So for games like that it is pretty rough to find a real non spam redirect server in the server browser without aggressive filtering or blacklists. New players see the trash and just give up and play something else.
I've noticed there were fake servers like this on tons of source/valve games for nearly a decade by now. I've been waiting for some other person to notice this
This is just an issue that affects all source engine games and its sad that Valve didn't take steps to prevent this with CS2. Garry's Mod if you didn't know made there own custom server browser UI not just to make it look better and make it easier to browse servers but to fix this exact problem. In Garry's Mod if you try to spoof the server list in anyway and it is detected or reported to gmod developers that servers IP will get blacklisted making it so the server will not appear in the server list. Repeat offenders can even have the name of there server blacklisted.
its been a thing since CSGO, and has plagued TF2 as well as CS Source they get smarter with server filtering so the servers would still display even if you filter out all the possible options in the server browser. It's infuriating.
Thank you I've been unable to surf for the past months because I can't seem to join any servers. Hopefully I can find a real server in third party site
this is not something new, if you look at CS: Source server list you can find that almost all of it are fake servers, and if you blacklist the ones that have >32 max players there would be much less servers
I mean this has been going on for years? its nothing new hahahahaha, fuck even the main server i used on GO KZG had servers from all over the world to redirect to main server. it is annoying tho!
Although that server browser outside of the game is stupid, it does come useful if you want to check if the server u play is full before you even launch the game.
cannot believe you said cs2 is an "UpGrAdE" 30 seconds in it may be an update but not an improvement over what we had(1 step forward and 2 steps back), only good thing that came from cs2 is the map creation engine cs2 = downgrade, how you might ask? sub tick ruined the game 1month ago (peekers advantage anyone???? yes i know its fixed) and its STILL ruining surf, games crashing at pro events, cheaters everywhere without any form of Overwatch, and the rampant server advertisement spam that is worse than csgo ever was, All this so they can peddle more $1k+ skins to delusional blind fanboys csgo > cs2 any day, there's a reason why half of the pros left cs2 to rot(shroud, tarik) just to name a few. Idk when but i do hope people wake up pull their heads from their asses and breath some fresh air for the first time in months of fart huffing copium TLDR : cs2 = dumpster fire / upgrade or update are 2 completely different meanings
You're clearly just making it seem bigger thing than it already is example: they're using it for profits and shit. BUT in reality its to boost the player and server count of CS2 in TOTAL. Sometimes overthinking isn't the right move.
Steam tracks players count from Steam directly (and it's pretty transparent too). Iirc the issue is servers don't need a steam account to host a server, hence the massive fave empty server since anyone can do it
Cs2 community are trash and non existing, like fr link me at least one community sever with a fun mode on like zm escape or other things. There. Is. None.
were they gonna add sex?💀
i literally yelled ''WHAT?'' when i heard that lmao
CS2 Sex Update?!
Yep, you were supposed to get a little companion in ranked if you "make love" with someone else in your team
Yeah I was dissapointed when they didn't add it into cs2
LMAO
"Were they gonna add sex?" Im still waiting.
I'm still waiting for the Minecraft Sex Update
@@slashpointoI am NOT ready to see steve's dingle but condom man from cs sure does gives some vibes
It's not even funny at this point
This is an issue in TF2 as well. Servers will fake ping numbers as low as 20 and when you actually join it's up to stuff like 120. Sucks

Valve isn't even publicly traded, they are a small company. This is beyond their capabilities

Game tracker is broken site that isn’t maintained do not use it for anything anymore.
Never saw any of your content before but your presentation is great bro.

game was ruined when sex wasn't added

You didn't say have fun sliding those triangles 😭
so servers show fake ”ass” info to redirect people to other servers?
CS2 killed community servers by ruining the browser
Valve was always awful at making games and hosting servers, especially Steam, now they have this idea that will not help fight scammers.
This is just an issue that affects all source engine games and its sad that Valve didn't take steps to prevent this with CS2.

thanks for getting to know about that honest steam browser
Thank you I've been unable to surf for the past months because I can't seem to join any servers. Hopefully I can find a real server in third party site
I still can't manage to surf on csgo like the video you put out awhile ago
Also surheaven still up

Even further back to 1.6 it's been a thing
THEY UPDATED THE STEAM SERVER BROWSER?
NOOOOOO
I tried using cs2 browser but I always get the error message, client out of date
I mean this has been going on for years? its nothing new hahahahaha, fuck even the main server i used on GO KZG had servers from all over the world to redirect to main server.
it is annoying tho!
redirect to our main server in AU
"were they gonna add sex", did i miss something there or what is he talking about
they said it on a livestream when all the trailers dropped
Unfortunately that's been delayed until CS3
i did report these issues and steam direct me to report them to the community then steam straight up deleted my post ... i have prove even !
There's an open issue on valve's github repo (iirc gold src) that has been an ongoing for years
ill still blame valve since this can be prevented
First, we anticipated for the TF2 Sex Update, Why not for CS2 also?
Steam has a built in server browser?
Valve, come the fuck on and fix this shit
So valve just need to download the mod and update cs2 with it?
Unfortunately, from what I've heard they would have to make a whole new networking system. Not so easy :/
how about just add to filter server that has remaining slot player can join
these servers are not always full, so it won't really do anything
That's why i went back to cs:s its a good life
: /
You are kidding, right? css is the most awful version of cs ever.
@pojuh645 any proof of that?
@@pojuh645For me it is the best version of CS. css was what I played the most btw.
@@pojuh645 bruh..

Hi can you guide to any surf mod with bots to practice and chill
I like repster, I don’t like people who don’t like repster
I don't even have a single server in the server browser wtf ????
