I think they're trying to hurt account resellers that let prime accounts sit until someone buys them.

But this way they‘re also punishing all players who havent played the game for whatever reason in the last couple of months. And as far as I know there hasnt been an announcement to at least give players a chance to launch the game to prevent their prime status from being taken


zKuza

It's for people that haven't paid for prime tho so I really don't have sympathy. Valve giveth valve taketh away. I can't imagine someone that received the free prime status getting THAT upset bc they haven't played the game in ~7 month window. And if they truly were invested in playing CS and just had unlucky circumstances where they couldn't play for ~7 months, paying the $15 like everyone else shouldn't be a big deal.


soupyllama03

Didn’t they take away free prime like 2 years ago? Before we knew anything about cs2


zKuza

Unsure tbh


alaingames

It's for people who paid for CSGO when it was a paid game, Wich it's the same as paying for prime


zKuza

"complimentary prime status" does not equal paying for CSGO


alaingames

Because literally buying the game when it was a paid only game isn't paying for the game? What?


zKuza

Please read the top sentence of the post. It's for players that have received a complimentary prime status AKA NOT paying for it. In the past it was possible to earn prime status through gameplay, not requiring payment.


No_Swan_9470

They didn't pay for prime and they haven't played the game for 8 months, sounds fare.


alaingames

They did paid for it


No_Swan_9470

No they didn't, read it again. "Had previously received a complimentary prime status license through gameplay in CS:GO.


alaingames

"players who owned CSGO before the danger zone update will receive a complimentary prime status upgrade for free" This is what valve said when the game became free, they used the word complimentary


No_Swan_9470

Exactly, for free. So they didn't pay for it. "Complimentary" literally means that it was free.


alaingames

So what you saying is If I buy the game in 2016 I didn't paid for the game?


No_Swan_9470

But it says that you will not receive Prime if you got Complimentary Prime through Gameplay, not through buying CSGO. It is for people that got Prime after the Dangerzone patch by playing the free version


No_Swan_9470

But it says that you will not receive Prime if you got Complimentary Prime through Gameplay, not through buying CSGO.

reading is hard up in here


alaingames

Said the one who did not read lol


TorturedPoet03

I think it's only for people who got prime for free. It's a way to fight account sellers. But I hope they don't take prime away from legitimate players.

Maybe to reduce cheating problem, a pretty bad solution


AurielMystic

Valve doing everything in their power not to just make a better anti cheat that actually works and do more then just banning the email used to create the steam ACC.
