FPS counter and ping and packet loss metrics in CS2

By luftkuss

For many months, CS2 players had to use the inconvenient cl_showfps 1 command. In one of the updates, Valve brought back the long-familiar net_graph, despite the fact that the command to call it and enable the function have changed dramatically.

So, on to the most important thing!

In one of the updates, Valve returned the ability to conveniently monitor ping, server and client operation, and the FPS counter, instead of the old inconvenient option (cl_showfps 1).

The new feature has become available both in the game settings menu itself and through the console. In order to enable telemetry (this is the name of the added function) through the console, just enter one command into it: cl_hud_telemetry_serverrecvmargin_graph_show 1

To turn off telemetry through the same console, change the value of 1 to 0: cl_hud_telemetry_serverrecvmargin_graph_show 0

Enabling telemetry through game settings

This method is much easier and takes only a second of your precious time! :)

Go to game settings → Game → and look for the Telemetry item

In order for telemetry to be visible constantly, and not only during network and client failures, you need to set the parameters Always in all three available items.
