Theres a lot of talk about benchmarking in the press for CS2 but i'm interested if anyone in this community has purchased the game and what their impressions are for performance and playability.

Also if your playing on a older rig or a new one

Early game I'm getting 50-60 FPS @ 1440p on a 3070 and i7-12700K. Haven't got to a high population point yet but I expect a drop as my city gets bigger.

Overall the playability is good so far. A few stutters here and there, and also some texture flickering. Not as bad as I was expecting from all the noise surrounding the game at the moment.

if there is no noise surrounding, what will be your verdict?

A solid foundation to build on I'd say. Needs better optimisation as my GPU runs hotter than I'd expect. As far as I can tell there are still a lot of quality-of-life things missing that were in the first game via mods. I've only played it for a couple of hours though so far though.
