2 May 2024 CS2 update

[ MISC ]

  • Fixed a bug where the game would stop taking keyboard input during the end-of-match map vote.
  • Fixed a bug where UI characters always had default gloves equipped.

1 May 2024 CS2 update

[ MISC ]

  • Grenade kills no longer display the "in-air" killfeed icon.
  • Fixed several cases where clicking on the buy menu or scoreboard would cause the game to stop taking keyboard input.
  • Fixed too many usercommands being processed when skipping forward in demos. This reduces the skip time by as much as 80%.
  • Added console output that may be helpful for advanced users to diagnose performance problems. When a very long frame occurs, a brief profile of the frame is printed. At the end of a match, a summary is printed.
27 April 2024 CS2 update

[ MISC ]

  • Fixed a bug where grenade throw animations would get stuck when switching hands.
  • Fixed a bug where the same grenade type couldn't be thrown multiple times without switching to another weapon first.
  • Fixed a bug that allowed picking up grenades beyond the normal maximum.
  • Fixed a bug where smoke grenades would sometimes appear lit as if a flashbang detonated inside them.


[ MAPS ]

  • Fixed a spot in Dust 2 above mid doors where grenades would fall through the world.
  • Fixed a spot in Inferno where weapons could fall through the world.
 
Arguably, one of the biggest gameplay changes between CS:GO and Counter-Strike 2 is, of course, the responsive smokes, alongside the sub-tick rate servers and map adjustments/changes. Check out details on the former via an official video from Valve below.
