    Exactly. I don’t trust any game publisher to invest the time and money into fixing ‘minor’ performance problems when people are still buying the game. As long as people continue to buy games that aren’t complete at launch we’ll continue to get games that aren’t complete.

      Yhey optimized and expanded the last CS game for like ten years. It was driven by DLC but the entire time CS vanilla was getting fixes and improvements.

      There were some pretty lame limitations to the core simulation that stayed there the entire time but at least the devs were pretty open about having no plans to change them.

      The CS2 story won’t really play out entirely for a year or two yet.

        If you had an option to pay the full price in installments then such excuse would be acceptable to a degree. As it stands now you bought what’s made and then some plans on top of that. Plans that might not come. Sure developer might be trustworthy but they have no legal obligations to fulfill those promises.

          yeh but I got ten years of a really great game, with a really great community. It took a long time for me to care that the lane change mechanics weren’t optimal.

          that ten years buys a fuck ton of good will for me. Life doesn’t run on legal obligations.

            Great game part is not guaranteed. It’s not finished yet. Also it might get worse in some of the future changes.
