Ricky “floppy” Kemery, a member of Complexity Gaming’s Counter-Strike 2 team, compared the game’s response on the sub-tick system to the 128 tickrate in CS
. In a video, the professional player demonstrated that in the previous version of the shooter, the game registered kills much faster.

“It feels like there’s a delay between the headshot animation and the body falling. I have a stable internet connection and good ping; this shouldn’t happen,” Kemery noted. Many of floppy’s followers mentioned that they also frequently experience poor responsiveness in CS2.

Previously, a CS fan wrote an open letter to the developers, highlighting the main issues with the sub-tick system that negatively affect the gameplay of the shooter. The gamer pointed out that the new feature does not work as Valve employees intended.
