Someone cracked/rip (don’t know the right term) CS:GO but only the 2020 version - https://hackvshack.net/threads/cs-go-2020-legacy-download-2023.2995
To fix Account Error, go to “csgo” folder, found “steam.inf”, or just “steam” file, change first line “ClientVersion” to “2000258”, and all will work


CS:GO is a free game. I was wondering about pirating a game that is 100% online. Are people downloading this only playing against bots? Are there going to be private servers also rolledback to a previous version? I’m just curious
Was* a free game. Now it’s unavailable with no legal means of getting it.
There have always been something called “legacy servers”. The link in this post that links to the download actually includes some of those servers.
