Matchmaking, even in Trusted games, has been rough in CSGO. Queuing in competitive either mismatches people with griefers, toxic players, and that\u2019s not to mention the problem with rampant spinbotters and hackers. The CSGO player base has been at arms with Valve recently over their lacklustre approach to cheaters, turning a blind eye for the most part. Valve is looking though, having implemented an undisclosed fix for Trust Factor on April 27. However it hasn\u2019t inspired much confidence in players, with some reporting the same problems persisting with getting constantly matched with cheaters. If you&#8217;ve had bad matches recently, it may have been because Trust wasn&#8217;t working right. We fixed it yesterday and confirmed that it is now working as intended. Thanks to everyone who provided useful feedback. \u2014 CS2 (@CounterStrike) April 29, 2021 \u201cIf you\u2019ve had bad matches recently, it may have been because Trust wasn\u2019t working right,\u201d Valve said on the CSGO Twitter account. \u201cWe fixed it yesterday and confirmed that it is now working as intended. Thanks to everyone who provided useful feedback.\u201d While that should have been a great news, there\u2019s been a mixed reception among people that have seen the worst of CSGO\u2019s matchmaking. \u201cTrust factor working or not doesn\u2019t change the massive amount of spinbotters\/cheaters that are still not banned and ruining matches,\u201d user \u2018necromantzer\u2019 said on Reddit. \u201cPlayed a cheater 15 [minutes] ago in matchmaking I don\u2019t think it\u2019s fixed,\u201d YouTuber \u2018CykaHotFire\u2019 said in response to Valve\u2019s update. \u201cThe real question is for how long was it off A day? A week? A month?,\u201d user AR771 said. \u201cFrom my personal experience.. about 6-8 weeks,\u201d another person said in response. Valve hasn\u2019t been very popular among its CSGO players lately. Recently they got rid of a loophole that let people stream with OBS while Trusted mode was on. Driven by discontent with the service and its negative side-effects, players started petitioning for Valve to get rid of Trusted Mode altogether. For reaching the developer\u2019s goals, Trusted Mode has apparently been a big success. But it\u2019s clear CSGO players are hoping for more meaningful changes to the system.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CSGO players slam Valve after Trust Factor fix doesn\u2019t stop rampant cheaters via Virre CSGOCSGO players are slamming Valve for the state of the game, especially after the developer issued a fix to the game\u2019s Trust Factor matchmaking system.
