xplay decided to pull a Cybershoke and steal maps for their CS2 KZ servers. Even after Cybershoke received a lot of backlash for similar reasons, xplay didn't back down or learn from it.

This video shows how bad of a job they did, and will hopefully make server companies talk to the community before doing poor work that can badly reflect on KZ.

    why does every big server network do this 😭thank you for exposing it though hopefully it gets some traction

    Both of these server networks also did the same with surf, but to a lesser extent. Cybershoke ported surf_mesa_revo quite badly and slapped their name on it. Not much later, a community member contacted the original mapper and proceeded to port it himself just out of spite. The cybershoke port ended up never getting used by anyone, including cybershoke themselves. Meanwhile xplay had many ports that were fine for the most part, but at some point for whatever reason they decided to unlist most of them so people are cautious of using those ports.

    W video, these companies are lucky that they can pay people to make mods and that valve hasn’t unlocked the game for the community to make everything as it should be
