DEVIL, the destroyer of Finnish hopes at Assembly this year. Will be exciting to see if his skill level is enough to compete against teams like fnatic though.

It's always good when a player who doesn't put in the work gets shown out of the scene. Unfortunately he likely cost NV a ton of momentum and key chances at victories that they may never see again with fnatic becoming super dominant.

I totally agree. I hate when organizations (regardless of sport) put up with players unwilling to workout/practice/put in extra time needed to succeed. gently caress that poo poo.

The Vexed logo is actually kind of good. Unfortunately they're on the last dreamhack background which look like complete and total dogshit.

I really hope the majors this year just put the loving logo of the team on the sticker and none of that other bullshit.

Yeah. Seems a bunch of people wish they would stop trying to make the tournament the focus and highlight the team logos but apparently the only major ok with that was Katowice and they got screwed thanks to MLG.

The least they could do is hire some graphic artists who understand the concept of contrast so you can actually make out the logo. Cluj Titan: distinct. Cluj Vexed: barely there.

Yep. It's kind of unbelievable to me that the people who designed (most) of the stickers in 2015 don't know poo poo I learned in a basic design course I had in high school.

You guys having FPS drops on nuke do you use a video card from the last 5 years in your PCs? CSGO is notoriously low on requirements right?


E: or is this people with laptops without a dedicated GPU having trouble?

When the release first came out, it apparently was primarily an issue for AMD graphics cards, but I've also heard of people with great Nvidia cards having FPS drops.

Aesthetically, Cache conveys post-Soviet sadness perfectly. I like how dirty the map looks. Not everything needs to be shiny with loving doodads all over the place.

Yup. Nobody is playing CSGO because of how it looks! It sucks that I can play with everything on high on the old maps but I have to drop it all to low to play Newk or Santorini. Worst part is it stutters anyway. I think it's something specific to the maps.

e: I have a Nvidia card

I have a 750ti and I'm fine as well. I'm sure that the framerate did decrease by some amount, but it wasn't noticeable or relevant for me because I'm not a 144hz autist.

FMPONE elaborated on Reddit that it's not gonna be a complete Newke-style rebuild that changes the layout, gameplay or theming - mostly just updating and polishing the texturing to add more normal maps and the new mapper toys added in the Nuke update.

Watch as some feature or random edit done in the name of beauty makes computers crash and video cards lag. I can't even switch weapons in my inventory without a hideously annoying hiccup, and it's not like I'm using that HD4850 from 2010 anymore either.

The game is badly optimized, with my 980 and 4,5ghz 2500k I drop below 200 often on the new maps, even on cache. Also lol 144 is not a "good" framerate.

It is for those of us playing at 144 with g-sync which that guy probably is.
