Competitive players were disappointed when they discovered that CS2 would not include the net graph. Fortunately, it’s now possible to check ping and FPS in real-time.
Even the most minor fluctuations in network digits in high-stakes games can change the outcome. For this reason, serious players in CS2 liked to keep their net graph turned on at all times.
CS2 ping and FPS overlay is one of the most useful non-gameplay features. The short command helped keep track of ping and FPS fluctuations in high-stakes games. With a numerical bar constantly appearing at the bottom of the screen, players could comfortably apply solutions whenever a single digit went amiss.
The great news is that players can now turn on the net graph in CS2 and closely monitor any performance changes. Here’s how to turn on the ping overlay in CS2.
The old console command doesn’t work anymore. Instead, players must turn on the feature from the game settings.
To enable ping overlay, click on the settings wheel
Next, go to the Game menu and select the Telemetry option
Scroll to the bottom of this page
Under the Telemetry headline, change the following settings to “Always.”
Show frame time and FPS
Show ping
Show packet loss/misdelivery
A green ping status overlay will appear on the upper right corner of your screen, denoting fps and ping.
