priorties (in order) 1. vac 2. subtick 3. train and cobble (cache is being worked on by the map creator, he never worked at valve) 4. operation and community content game is now 30x better
armory will be here for 6 months to a year probably. valve most likely monitors how many skins have been created and when the goal is reached, they switch out the armory content.
Whoever made that twitter post forgot about Cache which has also had an unreleased makeover for CS2. The map designer has spoken about working on the map and touching it up being hit with the nostalgia of counter strike and how far visual graphics in video games have come in the last 10-15 years.
I personally think that they will release an operation probably during the major or in 2025 simply because cobble has files hinting at snowing texture train is also leaked with brand new overhaul adding rain and thunder also we are missing maps such as short dust, lake or maybe am wrong will see :)
I recall a dev saying that theyll adding missions to The Armory soon together with new maps. But i dont remember exactly, its was like before a week or two
I dont think not being able to buy stars loses valve much (or any) money in the grand scheme of things. Crates will stablize and whenever crates go up in price past the profitable amount, players will buy armory passes again. Forcing players to play the game does increase the active playerbase, but crates are just as accessible to the degen gamblers, they'll just use SCM instead of stars.
Operation probably won't be out til the Faceit/Mapcore mapping contest is done. They'll use map(s) from it for the operation. The major is just a month away and Valve won't double dip with sticker capsules with an Operation.
@@CykaHotFire because instead of “operations” any new content would just go into the armory, there wont be a two tier system with missions or anything. The name “operation ____” is just dead. Itll be “new armory update” like every other games rotating shop
@@CykaHotFire what im saying is it just makes more sense that the armory is a way to get around huge content updates like operations and instead start drip feeding tiny little updates every few months. Like they might add a map or some shit in 3 months, then a few months after that add a collection of agent skins to the armory, then a few months after that add 1 tiny little thing and etc. This update along with every “major” update theyve had this year pretty much proves that valve is no longer capable of dropping these huge operations anymore and are instead opting to just drip feed content over a long period of time. Where in csgo, wed get a huge operation with maps missions collections and all that, here they can slowly roll out what would have been a singular content update over the course of an entire year
@@Malignantt1 yea i agree with you i also dont think operations are ever gona return they will just change things in armory every so often to get casuals to play again and buy passes we will see what will they do when deagles time runs out to what expect from them if they add another timed colection armory is staying for good (they are for sure testing waters and colecting data how mutch players play and how mutch they spend if it starts to fall off they juice it with more content they still need to port multiple game modes that were in operations so "season two of armory" might come with new map and flying scout game mode)
@@CykaHotFire CS is finished project for valve. It generates humongous amounts of money. It will get fixes, but no new significant content. They are making deadlock now.
lol I'm wondering how long I'll have to wait in order to make a good profit on the cases, for other operations it took around 1 year in order for the case to cost 5 eur, hope it's basically the same for the armory.
Lets be honest, looking at the prices on the steam market we can already confirm that buying the armory pass is not worth it, even when buying 5 passes and unboxing a pink its not even or barely profit... i miss the old operation where it did not matter what you unboxed, long term you would always profit😞
They're waiting for the community to do everything for them. There is an ongoing Mapcore competition, and Valve will pick up the better maps from those competitions, like Anubis and Swamp for example. They are lazy enough not to create all the content themselves, all they have to do is wait for people to make decent maps and skins and slap some missions on top = ez money.
Holy shit. . . If this is true that means they'll put this on Deadlock as well?!?!?!!? Instead of a rotating shop like fortnite and valo. We get a game that has collections as rotation inherently keeping the gambling feel and insetivising playing the game. From the battle passes from Dota to the Underage gambling and trading community, you did it again Valve.
TF2 is nothing and was nothing compared to csgo/cs2 what are you on cs is the most profitable game, and one of the most popular game in the world IF not the most popular in the world. TF2 have never been close to that title, it was an alternative for cs 1.6, not more. No other game can bring Valve so much money, as no other game can bring their players money lol. CS is too unique to compare it to anything to be honest
@@grozzik2232 I'm not talking about the mechanics or even how much money the games generate. after Valve got bored with TF2 they stopped releasing operations. they only released new community made maps and cosmetic items, which is exactly what Valve is doing with CS2 now. 😎😴😘
I wont say you are entirely wrong but you aren’t entirely right, I have around 1500 hours in tf2 and 1000 in CS, I don’t think they would ever do the same things they do for tf2 to cs, for a few reasons, counterstrike is a much more competitive game, you can’t really just add 6 community maps every single update without a lot of work, maps are fun because they are balanced (except for office it’s fun because it’s office) you have to play test maps to make sure they are balanced and work for competitive play, meanwhile tf2 is pretty much the most casual shooter out there, most of the maps are either a decade old, unbalanced, or take years to finish one game, as well as nearly every map having issues with random holes and geometry. Counter strikes skin economy is also a lot healthier, less skins meaning the supply isn’t heavily outweighing demand, this is because; 1. Cases drop literally every half hour it feels like, 2 every big update is just a case and new map, that’s it, same content different outfit every single time, so every 3 months there is another pile of items no one is gonna remember in 3 months. Cs2 also has a much larger fan base, who speaks up as soon as valve is caught lacking and constantly complains about no updates, tf2 hasn’t gotten an update that changed anything in over I think 7 years, and in that time there have only been two times that the tf2 fan base have actively risen up to protest valve, but my god was it beautiful, valve doesn’t give the “tf2 treatment” to cs players because they want competiveness with a smooth feeling, tf2 players like tf2 because it still feels like a game from 2007, they still want updates every once in a while, and valve has still get to do that, despite literal hundreds of thousands of people asking valve to wake up from their nap, and they have, they just get to work making the games that made it out of the earlier 2000’s a little bit more modern feeling
@@grozzik2232cs is not too unique I can name like four games that have the same or similar feeling, team fortress two one the other hand which I believe is averaging 8th in player count on steam, so not too far from number one, has no real counterparts, overwatch is too spacy and futuristic, team fortress 2 is the game for jank, and we love it for that
@@thenarwhalking7477 we've been complaining that latency issues have been impacting both competitive and casual CS and it took Valve more than a year to make the subtick system marginally more responsive. the game at release wasn't as crisp as CSGO, it still isn't as crisp as CSGO, and their insistence on using 64 tick servers indicates that they aren't just ignoring CSGO players' decades old requests for a smoother, more responsive game, they're giving us the exact opposite of what we have been asking to cut costs. it's a cash cow and they treat it like a cheap prostitute.
I've bought 3 passes got only light blue and blue items, it's not worth it, i'll wait until all the degen open 100x passess and all the prices drop and get myself the skins i want :P
Why wouldn’t it be temporary? If it’s there forever what’s the point of buying passes if you can just buy your skin on the market? And if they cycle the collection what’s the point of spending coins if you can save up and buy the next shit case and flip it in a week…
I bought like 16 cases with the stars, but they're going for a euro each now. It's over. Armory being permanent kinda makes it so the price of the cases is always gonna be smol, doesn't it? Plus it's not that great of a case either so idk.
It won't be always one euro, they will rotate out that case and than the case will become rare again and price will go up just like any other case that was limited
I miss the old operations
especially these with custom map missions and tokens to collect
we are missing so many things from csgo.
Agreed! This one is not worth 15$. 40 stars and no missions. No profit operation.
THE ROCK POG
@@accmac2752you can profit, ive been really lucky and profited from 3 passes
All they gotta do is bring back cache, train. Bring out an actual operation with missions. Better vac/Anticheat system. Boom!
Valve, "Best I can do is sell you a bunch of skins".
And flying scoutsman
priorties (in order)
1. vac
2. subtick
3. train and cobble (cache is being worked on by the map creator, he never worked at valve)
4. operation and community content

I want train so bad lol I would also like some other old maps but I doubt that'll happen.
Also the nice wingman maps like lake and flying scoutsman was also nice
armory is like battlepass per season i would say and operatin is an event type missions with special coin
I just really want map factions back

It will be an operation to the winter with winter-theme, its time they add it to the game - agent with winter camo and different gun skins
