How to fix CSGO \u201cpure server\u201d disconnect issues after May 4 update ValveA number of CS:GO players are reporting not being able to join official matchmaking servers after the 1.37.5.0 update. Thankfully, there\u2019s an easy solution for most. Since the release of CS:GO\u2019s latest update just 24 hours ago, players have reportedly struggled to join official matchmaking servers. The update pushed through a change to how servers read players\u2019 individual game files. If there is a discrepancy, players will get kicked. The scope of this function was increased in this patch, although specifics weren\u2019t detailed. what if you wanted to play some CSGO but CSGO said: pic.twitter.com\/HBz78ibgnq \u2014 Hac1 (@DonHaci) May 5, 2020 \u201csv_pure servers will now kick clients that have loaded asset files into game memory from files not present on [the] game server filesystem,\u201d Valve stated in the update notes. This is leading to \u201cpure server\u201d error messages, and players getting kicked out of lobbies. If you are queuing up for competitive matchmaking and get kicked like this, you will be handed a loss and a competitive cooldown. Thankfully, there is a solution on the table. According to \u2018gabefollower\u2019 on Twitter, you\u2019ll need to delete some game files. The shaders, materials, models, sound, scripts, and particles folders all could affect your ability to join a server. On Windows, navigate to Program Files (x86) > Steam > steamapps > common > Counter-Strike Global Offensive > csgo and remove said folders. Then, verify the integrity of the game files on Steam by going into CS:GO > Properties > Local Files. An update pushed on May 5 has also helped players pin-point the specific files that might need deleting if you are unsure. little update, if first one doesn’t work, try to delete ALL these folders pic.twitter.com\/2BVDgzDzne \u2014 Gabe Follower (@gabefollower) May 5, 2020 If all else fails, you can contact Valve directly. The developers have opened up their emails for people with \u201csv_pure\u201d issues. \u201cIf you\u2019re facing this issue then please go ahead and send an email to csgoteamfeedback@valvesoftware.com with the subject line \u201csv_pure kick,\u201d said \u20182Eggs\u2019 on Twitter. Be sure to include your profile link, where you were playing, and what the error you are getting is, so Valve can pinpoint where to look to help solve your problem. https:\/\/twitter.com\/2Eggsss\/status\/1257467805995319298 Until Valve completely patches out the issue, this will be the only way to work around it. If you are a modder, you\u2019ll have to make sure to delete these folders every time you want to join an official server. We will let you know once it gets patched out completely \u2014 and hopefully, that\u2019s sooner rather than later.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
