  2. It clearly says “Release Notes for 7/22/2024” in the link.

    > Dead players are no longer allowed to pick up ground weapons.

    That was *still* in the game? I swear it’s been patched like a couple of times during the beta period.

  4. Adminisitrator

    > Dead players are no longer allowed to pick up ground weapons.

    lol

    “Restricted upward movement of a player when a teammate is boosted on their head.”

    Mate. DID THEY FIX IT?!

    Fuck a fridge, this is actually fucking awesome. Glad they figured out how to fix it

    Edit: Lmao. Some of you are so laughably miserable.

  6. joker231

    Didn’t even update the date shows how much these morons care about cs2.

  7. That’s all that was updated in 11 business days??? With all the problems this game has? Wow…

  8. extraleet

    game crashed, game update, can’t reconnect :/

  9. >Restricted upward movement of a player when a teammate is boosted on their head.

    does this mean they *finally* fixed boosting?

  10. NarutoUA1337

    2 weeks for this? devs gave up already

  11. Development of cs2 literally feels like a kickstarter game 3 years after its all went to shit, there’s no money left, and the only person left working on the game is a single dev in denial

  12. seems like boosting is currently broken, you gain way more height and the bottom player is standin mid air

  13. Extension_Emu3078

    1 month of cooking, that’s the result

  14. schoki560

    such a cringe update ngl

    when was the last meaningful update?

  15. lasthopel

    It has been over s month since the last major update I was hoping they would stick to thr at least once a month title updates but I guess that was to good to hope for

  16. Hohenstuken

    New damage given UI looks way worse than before. Looks like its made by an intern lmao

  17. Another shitty update, nothing new, thanks valve!!!!!

    > Official game servers in Casual game mode now allow voting for a level change only at the end of the match or during the first round of the match.

    The amount of people that instantly started a votemap as soon as they joined or died, even during clutch situations lol. I’m glad they changed it, it was annoying

  19. TheRecordKeep

    I’d like to see Valorant compete against such an insane update.

  20. sHX_1337

    That’s a lot of bugs and user stories done for a single person! They should get a raise!

  21. Still no optimization update or net-code fix is crazy. Relying on other companies like amd or nvidia just to play with upscaled textures and stupid floating mouse feeling than just optimizing your own engine is the most lazy thing ever. Also we don’t need netcode and anticheat updates because everyone playing faceit. So bad.

  22. Arco_Sonata

    When I saw it was 700mb I just sighed and clicked Update. Anniversary is 50 days away so the next update has to be good…… Right guys?!?! right???

  23. cvbnm779

    The saddest part is that there must only be 1 dev working on the game because he had nobody to test if his fix for the boost bug worked 🙁

  24. oPlayer2o

    Holt fuck! Really!?!? That’s fucking it?

  25. Prestigious_Tip330

    *Mills:* Updated to the latest version from the Community Workshop

    Just been testing this out, A ton of util line ups are ruined cause for some reason there’s now a gigantic collision box above all of the bridges, In “Z” underneath the bell tower there’s now a collision box blocking all util from going through the windows for any flash executes.

    Minus the 5 player boost exploit getting patched on Mills, It’s actually become ass imo

  26. RandomRedditUser31

    new damage dealt ui looks woeful, what the actual fuck valve?

  27. SeazonCSGO

    Absolute garbage looking UI lmfao i’m ingame right now

  28. No-Umpire-6166

    I wonder how hard it would be to make a community server browser without alt tabbing the game, like they used to have it. crazy.
