Counter-Strike 2 will give players a rank for each individual map. Players will also receive a single rank based on the Premiere mode (pick-and-ban maps for each match).

Here is an alternative Piped link(s): https://piped.video/watch?v=s6BNHro0vSg

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

I'm open-source, check me out at GitHub.

Interesting. I like this approach. Incentivises and rewards map skill

This isn't out yet, is it?

CS2 is still in the 'Limited Test' phase, but with this update they invited a lot of new players, almost everyone who has Prime and holds a matchmaking rank. I say almost everyone, because I still wasn't invited :(

Adding to sane@feddit.de, CS2 also isn't yet released on Linux. It works through proton but doesn't support online play as VAC only works native.

Strikes me as odd VAC doesn't support proton, you'd have thought if anything would it'd be valve's own

Maybe they support VAC on proton in general. But since CS:GO/CS:2 has Linux support they don't enable VAC on proton. That's my guess without checking.

I'm pretty sure they have, I was already playing csgo on proton some years back.
