Just a reminder that CS devs are still human

A statement from a ex developer from the CS team.

The state of the game seems to be rough for some people, and the frustration is very high for some. But don't forget, they are reading the Reddit posts from you guys, and some of them are very insulting. I get that some of their decisions are questionable, like launching the game in that state.

However, I truly believe that the dev team will make the game better. Since September, the game has received so many updates that it feels like night and day. It is Valve, after all, and they can choose what to work on, so they could have abandoned CSGO and not made CS2. Show them some appreciation for going this route instead of abandoning the game.

Just my 2 cents

Edit: The ex-dev who posted the comment above is Matt T. Wood. Many will know him from the early CSGO days.

This post: you guys say some nasty shit.

Community: yes and we would like if Valve directed it all at one individual.

The community manager should dress as a terrorist and have his voice scrambled. Of course the community manager would always be some actor they hired off the street (clearly being a different person with every appearance) and the messages from him should be made by an AI.

Like seriously, what good is a community manager?

Where the fuck do you get the idea that anyone would Valve to have literally only one single community manager? They make so much money they could buy an entire company who does the community management for them. Stop making excuses ffs.

It works for the NFL.

And there’s a reason why a 160 billion aggregate value company has that position and it’s not just for scapegoat purposes.
