btw if you want to simulate matchmaking and disable pinion, connect to a server by typing "connect <ip> matchmaking" in console (without quotes and with the IP of course). this will make the server think you connected with quickplay and the html motds won't show.

Hopefully by 2016 they will fix the demo playback issues we have been complaining about since forever

mthsadbtw if you want to simulate matchmaking and disable pinion, connect to a server by typing "connect <ip> matchmaking" in console (without quotes and with the IP of course). this will make the server think you connected with quickplay and the html motds won't show.

This is the best thing ever, if it works the way I am imagining. I play pubs with a few IRL friends from time to time and it seems most servers make you wait 30-60 seconds for ads every time you join, and after every round. I have HTML MOTDs disabled, but they will still force you to sit still for the same period of time, while simultaneously blocking most of your screen with a 'ENABLE HTML MOTDs NOW' type message.

Hopefully this nixes all that crap.

I'm not sure if the ones I play on are pinion. Finding a pub requires a ton of work now. 90% of them have this ridiculous stutter every 15 seconds that renders it entirely unplayable. Half or more of them have bots who are feigning human. It's pretty easy to tell they're bots and I freaking hate bots. I have an unreal number of servers blacklisted for having bots.

Just play on Valve servers. You can search for them in the server browser by entering Valve as a tag. No ads and no stupid server plugins/mods. It's not worth it to try and find the perfect PUB when you can just pull up a Valve server that's playing your favourite map.

smakers90% of them have this ridiculous stutter every 15 seconds that renders it entirely unplayable.

I've noticed this as well in the past month or two. Pretty much any pub that isn't established/a chain gives me horrible stuttering.

I assumed there's some new server host that's really bad or something..

Actually, I noticed the most recent CS:GO template apparently had a big demo playback update, you can now rewind demos without having to reload the map and also skip by kills and rounds easily... Should we get our hopes high for this? Isn't it the same demo engine basically?
