CS:GO update adjusts smokes, maps

4-7-2013 09:57

Valve has released an update to Counter-Strike: Global Offensive which reduces smoke size, improves visibility on a few maps and makes a few changes to de_inferno_se.

The update comes at a questionable time with SLTV StarSeries VI finals kicking off in just a couple of hours time, which means NiP and Na`Vi, who play in the first match, will barely have any time to adjust to the changes.

Most notable change is the reduced smoke size, no more allowing you to e.g. smoke on top of the hut on de_nuke_se and block all visibility inside of it. Minor changes were also made to the Sig and Aug rifles.

Counter-Strike: Global Offensive key, we will be handing out keys to you guys at a later stage

CS:GO receives a well needed update to reduce smoke size

GOTV spectators sometimes getting a round radar no longer occurs, X-ray now shows grenade trajectories and flashes are no longer shown on GOTV, instead showing an icon to imply a player has been flashed.

The A hallway on de_inferno_se has been widened, car changed into a brick wall and couch moved a little. B platform of de_dust2_se has also been modified. Full patch notes below:

[ MISC ]

- Playing a demo recorded on a workshop map will attempt to automatically download and display that workshop map.
- Added a convar cl_download_demoplayer to control whether demo player is allowed to download external resources, defaults to 1 allowing downloads from workshop, allows 2 for downloading all other external resources that could be referenced by community server.
- Added engine support for versioning official maps, so demo playback will seamlessly download and load matching version of the map when playing back older demos. ( Currently supports Nuke, Inferno, Dust2 )
- Fixed rare crashes in HUD when game events were received before HUD elements were fully loaded.

[ GAMEPLAY ]

- Additional minor buffs to the Aug and Sig.
- Smoke grenades have been adjusted to make their view-obscuring overlay match the smoke volume shape more precisely as well as some other minor fixes.

[ SPECTATING ]

- Spectating a flashed player via GOTV now shows an additional effect and icon to indicate blindness without obscuring the spectators view.
- Fixed a case where GOTV spectator would get the round radar template instead of the square one.
- Grenade trajectories are now on by default in spectator x-ray view. Convar sv_grenade_trajectory_time_spectator will adjust visible trail duration.

[ MAPS ]

- Made a pass at incorporating some lessons learned from Mirage to original maps. Also, bug fixes.

De_Inferno:
- Widened apartment hallway near A
- Replaced red car in middle with solid cover
- Fixed radar naming on haycart
- Improved visibility

De_Nuke:
- Added radar names
- Bug fixes
- Improved visibility

De_Dust2:
- Improved visibility
- Bug fixes

De_Aztec:
- Improved visibility

De_Train:
- Improved visibility

Nice, the smoke was really op and slowed the game down a shitload making it impossible to go on offense on certian areas when laid correctly, hopefully this will balance it slightly.

good update

2013-07-04 10:05

I like it! :D

Now regular maps looks great and there is no big fog now you can clearly see enemy from long distance! I wish they play on regular maps now because _se maps are outdated and not suported by Valve anymore :)

still i wouldnt call that cover on inferno mid "SOLID"

2013-07-04 11:03

the changes on inferno are nice but they should have just deleted the cover down middle. there is already a barrel and a corner. also they should just remove the fucking backyard or at least remove the fence. that's one of the most annoying things on that map. on their version of mirage they said they took care that the player-models always stay visible, while on inferno there is a fucking fence..

less fog

2013-07-04 10:38

you can see more clearly, without blur. For example from upper dark to platform on d2

2013-07-04 10:40

Objects through the smoke would be more visible (clearer to you/translucent), means you can see through them to some extent.

He wants the ADAD'ing (strafing speed), which is kind of OP right now, to be removed I guess.

2013-07-04 11:29

remove ofc :)

2013-07-04 12:06

They made 1 good fix. I applaud them. I think after all this time, it is highly unlikely they will alter the recoil and movement in this game which is what a lot of semi pros want. Oh well...

2013-07-04 10:41

6 replies

Valve is most likely trying to replace the _se maps with the original ones for competitive games, and I see this as a very good news since it will also reduce the gap between casual play and the competitve one

2013-07-04 10:49

2 replies

They could just as well just replace de_inferno with de_inferno_se and make the changes then? Really no point in making identical changes to de_inferno, and make additions to the map that the _se versions really need :P Just my oppinion though, as i think it's a waste of time and really something that should have been done ages ago

2013-07-04 10:51

they should remove fog completely :)

2013-07-04 12:06

they probably don't know how the competitive players are going to react to these changes and just use the normal maps as a testing ground. you wouldn't be glad to see maps getting changed without any notice two days prior to some LAN :p

2013-07-04 11:39

You didn't get it...take se maps makew changes on them but keep the standard name...so keep se for competitive play while the transition can be made smoothly to the originals

2013-07-04 14:51

1 reply

+1 This seriously needs to happen. I have no clue why they haven't made this transition yet. At least make comp MM have all the competitive maps, instead of the stock ones. Because at least the people who are trying to play competitive, are playing the right maps.

2013-07-05 15:53

128tick WHEEEEN !

2013-07-04 10:42

Nice update, but they can make better...

2013-07-04 10:44

Looks like FalleN and DaZeD done their "job". Now fix goddamn P90, can't stand it. Oh and 128 tick please. See Valve? If you want you can do it. (I hope more pro's will bash on Valve...)

2013-07-04 10:48

but if they fix the de_inferno and not the SE, are they gonna play with chickens later today then`? or they will still play the "old" _se màps?

more need more update fix recoil spray movement and more fixes for train and inferno, + nerf glock, buff p2000,nerf p90 and autosnipers

2013-07-04 11:00

26 replies

- pistols are fine (all maps are CT biased anyway, why not give T's a slight advantage) - "fix recoil"? there is nothing broken about it, it is just very hard to master. and besides, who wants more sprayers? - Autosniper dmg to leggs should be reduced, otherwise it is fine. - p90: I don't like it either, ppl running and jumping still beeing able to hit. but it is expensive, does not have much armor penetration and no extra kill reward. sounds balanced to me... plus, no pro has ever complained p90 was too strong...

2013-07-04 11:16

24 replies

I think the P90 is really broken I think the pros don't complain about it because the other pros don't use it and they never get to play against a p90. The p90 has less armor pen but has a high fire rate and that's what makes it strong. But I agree with you in the other things :)

2013-07-04 11:27

9 replies

well the p90 is a tough one: due to it's high accuracy while running it is very strong on low- to midlevel play. so MM games are really affected by this. In Pro Games, a headshot HAS to do significant damage, or you're dead yourself. thats why pros don't use and ergo don't complain about p90. To Sum up: reduce the accuracy while moving/jumping/running and I'm fine with it =)

2013-07-04 15:26

6 replies

Is that a P90 supporter I see? No. It should not be nerfed, and that's not even a fair comparison. P90 is a pray and spray machine, that could easily take out any AK at close to mid range, provided they keep moving, whilst the opponent stays still and aims for the moving HS

2013-07-05 15:57

5 replies

Yes, it is, a p90 supporter, would you just look at that! p90 is marginally good, if you can't beat players that use it thats because you still have a lot to improve, deal with it.

2013-07-05 17:07

4 replies

must I remind you of the bullshit adadad, and speed you have with the P90? Please; it's hardly a weak weapon. You barely have to pull down. You just sprint around and fire aimlessly. I'm not saying it should be nerfed, but at least I acknowledge it's bullshitness.

2013-07-06 07:36

agreed on everything :)

2013-07-04 11:41

- Pistols aren't fine, the P2000 I actually think is okay, the glock needs damage nerfed over distance, the p250 needs to more expensive, the deagle needs a complete overhaul. - Recoil is preference, I don't really find it too bad. - P90 is incredibly overpowered in MM, it wouldn't be so bad if the aimpunch wasn't as prevalent with it.

2013-07-04 12:50

if you think that recoil and spray are nor broken okay ((

2013-07-04 14:31

They are not broken, both are harder to master than 1.6 but by no means does that make them "broken"

2013-07-04 15:45

Not all maps are CT biased, Pistol Round Win statistics clearly show that.

2013-07-04 14:43

The only non CT biased map is dust2, giving t's a slight advantage in pistol rounds helps keep games potentially closer.

We are talking about PISTOL ROUNDS ONLY. so don't count the full buy rounds. PISTOL ROUNDS favor inferno/dust2/mirage maps. Remember, only pistol rounds!

2013-07-04 17:09

2 replies

the thing is he tried to say that the slight advantage on pistol rounds for t is okay cause the maps are usually ct biased anyway.. gives a chance for t's to build up a few rounds in the start of nuke as an example. I'm all the way with #120's points on the pistols.

Alright

2013-07-04 22:18

And yes, recoil is broken. Aim punch destroys the recoil. They should make it less random by doing it like I heard is in source: with armor = no aim punch. without armor = aim punch

2013-07-04 14:45

2 replies

How does that make RECOIL broken, if anything that makes aim punch with armor broken...

2013-07-04 15:46

1 reply

Ok, wether you consider aim punch a part of recoil or not, the randomness it gives to the recoil doesn't make it competitive, rather more casual. I believe that a cmopetitive game has to be as more mathematical as possible. That randomness from aim punch make your bullets kinda lucky if they hit an enemy.

2013-07-04 17:12

recoil is good the only thing they have to change is the aimpunch with kevlar

2013-07-04 15:59

I dont know why but I was actually a lot better sprayer on the old recoil O_O

2013-07-04 19:11

p90 is fine. it's not that often used in pro matches. if it was too good it would be used more.

2013-07-04 11:39

like the update, now silencer and se maps of mm . 128 tickservers better anticheat on csgo and i think this game wil grow

2013-07-04 11:17

Remove the _se maps and make the standard maps the maps without fog, chickens, flowers etc. Make the smoke like it was in 1.6/Old Source ( Before 2010 ) and a movement update. I really like the changes they made tho, the mapchanges are huge for MM. As you can get an easier entry onto a player behind the HS box on B. The appa update on inf reminds me of 1.6 and I really like that as you can dodge something easier and the CT's can't make an easy 5k spraydown if you rush it. The smoke update is good I think it has to be updated a bit as I mentioned. Great work till now, keep it going!

glock singles shots ppl aswell,dont know the ranges but it has a sick acuracy

2013-07-05 06:28

Glock is useless if your opponent has an armor.

2013-07-04 13:41

For me Deagle is just meh, Five-Seven and P250 are much better even against an armored opponent (because of my low aim and very fast strafing in CSGO probably). And I notice that pro players find a use for Deagle and buy it not so rare as we can expect. For example, Tec-9 is almost never used on competitive scene. Yeah, I enjoyed Deagle in 1.6 too, but in this game I want to see every weapon being used sometimes in particular situations.

2013-07-04 13:36

2 replies

Well the Deagle now only really has one purpose. It probably the best pistol to hold a angle with, but you really only have one shot. But as CT that can be enough if you all get one kill :p

2013-07-04 15:40

1 reply

very true. It's good against dumb opponents. But I really think you should be able to spam it for 1-2 bullets before it goes all to shit. Because it's real weak at this point.

First good update in long while. I feel more of these updates have to follow tho, to actually see things changing for the better

2013-07-04 12:02

Is anyone else getting really low fps on the new updated maps?

As far as I know it seems to be impossible to bunnyhop normally right now, the only thing that seems to increase your speed is the crouch-bunnyhop. It would be much appreciated if they made it possible to bunnyhop normally as in 1.6 and source. I don't see any reasons why they shouldn't fix it since it's been available in both previous versions of CS. ONT: Good update, especially to inferno. Would also like to see updates on nuke-lobby and dust2-dark where they completely delete everything that you can get stuck in, examples on this is boxes randomly spread on the floor.

Examples of what I mean with the randomly placed boxes and other things: i.imgur.com/L5vjR5P.jpg - Getting stuck in it all the time. i.imgur.com/Q4NwOeX.jpg - Move this more towards the wall or remove it completely i.imgur.com/vd42aNU.jpg - removing this would actually favour the terrorists since they would get much easier access to squeeky-door, they would also be able to flash main on a rush for example. i.imgur.com/Oioo43y.jpg - Just blocking the way, should therefore be removed. i.imgur.com/06Pdged.jpg - Make the whole room wider or move the bench more towards the wall for easier rotation to the exit.

There are many "items" on the maps that needs to be removed to increase the gamingexperience but I figured that I'd be stuck at my computer all day if I would get examples from every map.

2013-07-04 14:10

amen to that last one

2013-07-04 14:09

the second example I completely disagree with. It is indeed very usefull, you can move behind it, seek cover, surprise enemies, dodge flashes etc. you can also take this point to spot t-base and not expose yourself. so to me this is a good pole, adding variety to your b-tunnels playstyle.

2013-07-04 14:15

1 reply

I agree that the pole can be useful at times. I can't find one useful thing to do with the box next to it though.

2013-07-04 14:30

Regarding the movement: They should ask ask the developers of "KZMod" for their code. They made the perfect movement for CS.

2013-07-04 14:06

Bunnyhopping should be able, as long as they implement the bhop cvar from source, which could enable and disable it.

2013-07-04 17:07

I like the new smoke, that is deffo an improvement. Not sure if the brick wall instead of a red car on inferno mid was completely needed tbh but the hallway in apps in nice - however the angles are now slightly different for spotting, so be curious to see how the angles affect the peeping problem with angles & how much an apps rush from Ts will change, especially VeryGames almost flawless smoke onto truck apps push now the smoke is less powerful! That one strat use to win them rounds everytime :o

2013-07-04 12:24

I don't care about those Updates until a acceptable Point. Maybe I'll touch the Game for real in a few months again so soon it's worth it. In this Time I will play pro mod, 1.6, source or even tactical intervention. i dont have high hopes for csgo because those drastic changes that are needed to change the game completely in a really cool way, will probably never happen. i don't even like that game graphically and it has the most static movement feeling of all cs parts that reminds me on Chess. weapons are messed up too.

Nice update :) Like: - AUG & SIG buffs, - smoke fix, - spectator flash fix, - spectator radar fix, - maps changes & fixes. Not like: - decreased smoke size (they should only decrease height but not width too) Still to do: - 1.6 crosshair behaviour, - aimpunch tweak, - adada fix, - wallbanging tweak, - grenades collide with player models fix, - m4a4 fake reload after first reload fix, - bomb planting radius sound tweak, - hs sound fix on different range.

It's still weak aimpunch with kevlar, and it's bad for recoil, it's promoting full auto not aim to the head playstyle.

Autosnipers are really expensive, and thus should be strong. Nothing wrong with those.

2013-07-04 17:18

Autosnipers have never been a real part of competitive CS, banned in 1.6, source(don't know never played competitive) so I really don't like them..I think they should be slightly nerfed in terms of recoil (you can basicly spray with T autosnip and still be accurate).

2013-07-04 18:06

5 replies

They weren't banned in Source. I really don't see why you want to nerf them. They're fucking expensive, so they're allowed to be strong. It's a gamble, if you die with an autosniper, you won't have a lot of money in the following two rounds.

2013-07-04 18:43

1 reply

Awp is also expensive and they nerfed him...I just never thought autosnip to be part of competitive cs as they are so noob friendly, you actually need zero skill to play relativly good with..I mean it's a diffrent story with pro teams, they have good timed smokes and flashes so it's not so op but in MM when someone "good" takes that weapon it's really hard to play. And being so expensive only the winning team can afford it and win even more. That's just my opinion, I know there are bigger issues in this game so I don't really expect anything to be done.

- adjust glock and/or p2k - put _se maps in mm - change bomb timer to 35 in mm - add cache and season to mm (the community has made an AMAZING cache using new tileset, just add that, please dont go doing another de_mirage) - add competitive mirage to mm - make it so you can still rejoin if you leave mm for over whatever timelimit it is at. - add a feature to search for players when one leaves mm - remove playbackspeed thing for overwatch (you can skip the whole review and just submit w/e u want) - silencer - fix the awp (various videos showing how broken it is) - fix the players warping around corners - improve deagle slightly more so its genuine option - communicate more with the community about some of the above changes we want, ie, whether you will ever change them or what your dev teams stance is on it. You may aswell just tell us rather then us speculating and wondering for years. - fps commands - reload bug (just with m4?) - try to sort out the adad, but without breaking the game plez - 128 tick - consider making changes to aimpunch - consider adjusting HE damage or how it applies its damage when it blows up. *its getting to be quite a long list now lmao :/
