CS GO Update Patch Notes – June 7, 2023

Maps

• Mirage has replaced Dust II on official Counter-Strike 2 Limited Test matchmaking servers.

Workshop Tools

• Counter-Strike 2 Workshop Tools have been released, allowing community contributors to create weapon finishes, stickers, and maps.
• The Steam Community Workshop does not yet support uploading CS2 maps.
• The level editor (Hammer) now leverages GPU accelerated raytracing to both preview and bake lighting for CS2 maps. This significantly speeds up compile times, but as a result a GPU capable of raytracing is required for Hammer to be fully functional.
• Hammer GPU Minimum Specs:
  • Nvidia 2060Ti 6gb (2080Ti+ recommended)
  • AMD 6600XT (6800XT+ recommended)

Weapons

• The player loadout has been revised:
  • Players have 1 Starting Pistol slot, 4 Pistol slots, 5 Mid-tier slots (previously “SMGs” and “Heavy”), and 5 Rifle slots, per team.
  • Any (side-appropriate) weapon can be assigned to any slot within its category.
  • The loadout supports drag-and-drop and has been redesigned to fit in on a single screen.
• The in-game buy menu interface has been revised:
  • The wheel has been replaced with a grid showing all purchase options at the same time.
  • Teammate purchases are displayed on the buy menu.
  • Weapon “stats” display has been replaced with simple straightforward descriptions.
  • Players can now refund any purchase that was purchased in the same round and has not been used.
• Existing CS:GO items on the Steam Community Market can be inspected in Counter-Strike 2.

Sub-tick

• Sub-tick movement is now more precise and less “floaty”.
• Releasing movement keys now correctly conveys their sub-tick timing.
• The top player of a triple-stack can now shoot.
• Weapon aim punch recovery has been fine-tuned to be latency-independent during sub-tick recovery on the client.
• View punch camera shake effect during shooting has been fine-tuned to be both latency-independent and synchronized with all other sub-tick shooting effects on the client.

Volumetric Smoke

• Improved lighting/rendering when smoke overlaps multiple distinctly lit regions.
• HE grenade effect times on smoke have been reduced.
• Shotguns now create larger holes in smoke volumes.

Animation

• Adjustments to the viewmodel ‘inspect’ to remove animation popping.
• Several viewmodel and blending animation fixes.
• Improved traversal animation.
• Jumping into the air and running off a ledge is now differentiated to allow for separate character motion.

Sound

• Player’s own footstep sounds are now predicted on the client for a latency-independent experience.

Rendering

• Improved performance and responsiveness in windowed and full-screen windowed modes.
• Fixed several bugs and rendering artifacts.

Input

• Fixed bug that would cause input to become permanently broken when multiple commands were bound to one key. Multi-binds are back, except for jump-throw binds (which are now a skillful part of CS).
• Commands bound to mouse wheels will now be reliably executed.
• Fixed bug that would cause input to execute incorrectly after taking over a bot in practice mode.
• Inspecting weapons is now predicted on the client for a more responsive experience.

VAC

• VAC will now live ban and gracefully terminate the match at the end of the round (unless it was the last round and the cheater lost).
• The match will not affect any participants’ Skill Group.
• Players that were not lobbied with the VAC-banned player will earn XP for match.
