This is a prime example of great game, but absolute terrible management. After almost 2000hrs in this game on multiple accounts and probably at least a thousand dollars spent over the years, I can say I have finally given up on it. Its very clear that the devs don't have their priorities straight and would much rather turn a blind eye to problems like cheating instead of admitting its a problem and properly dealing with it. Stuff like Trust Factor and Trusted Launch are not direct counters to cheating but simple obstacles that a majority of high level cheats these days can easily bypass. It has gotten to a point where the only difference between Low Trust Factor and High Trust Factor is how blatant the cheater/cheaters in your game will go (Because there will always be at least one)
Im sorry, but at this point if you don't think CSGO has a cheating problem you are very, very ignorant.
