New update with Inferno adjustments

26-10-2016 02:29

Earlier today Valve have shipped a new update to CS:GO which most importantly features gameplay changes to the new Inferno.

Two weeks have passed since Valve introduced the new version of Inferno, the previous of which was removed from the Active Duty map pool in April while Nuke re-entered the seven-map rotation.

Today CS:GO received a new update which mostly revolves around tweaks of the reworked Inferno, as well as a few bugfixes and festive cosmetics.

The A site on Inferno received several notable changes: a new small staircase leading to the plant area, an adjustment of the graveyard stairs and improved wallbanging near the balcony and quad.

Two other wallbang spots have also been improved, in the underpass area and in T apartments near bridge.

The full changelog is following:

[CSGO]

Happy Halloween!

[MISC]

Fixed a regression where players did not fade to black after death with mp_forcecamera 1.
Added ability to accept friend requests from CS:GO main menu and to send friend requests from match scoreboard.
Fixed a case where player would sometimes not be placed in competitive matchmaking queue correctly on the very first search after starting up CS:GO which required stopping search and searching again. (Thanks “Trip” for helping with diagnosing the issue)
Fixed some instances where incorrect or missing reverb was being applied to sounds.
Latency to official datacenters is now always measured using Steam Datagram Relay.
A temporary griefing conviction assigned by Overwatch will now be elevated to a permanent conviction if the suspect had a previous temporary griefing conviction.

[MAPS]

Cache

Minor bugfixes

Inferno

Added a second set of steps up on A site
Made wallbangs through windows near A site balcony, A site hut/quad and T apartments towards bridge more consistent
Pipes in underpass can now be shot through
Pushed back stairs to graveyard to create more room for defending player
Made shader for fountain water cheaper to render on low settings
Prevent name-peeking through gap between pillar and wall in hut/quad
Fixed various graphical and movement bugs
Moved back grenade-clip in open door on A site

EASY

Why does CSGO's Halloween updates have to be so lame, TF2 Halloween blows my mind every year. While Overwatch has a cool event going on along with Halloween exclusive skins.

2016-10-26 23:20

He's trying to trigger you guys...lol....If he loves rain, he would obviously know that CS:GO requires more skill to be good at it. Overwatch only requires aim.

2016-10-26 09:20

Theyve had silly halloween/christmas updates before, but theres no point in it

nah i liked the masks and the old halloween stickers + the old ingame offers. If they actually took some of the nice community skins and stickers for halloween, that might be something I actually pay for. TF2's halloween is always great and this year doesn't dissapoint. There's even a new tf2 operation and now we get a year for cs and it's shit

2016-10-26 04:13

Usually when there's a seasonal modification to the game it affects gameplay somehow (Zeus party update anyone?) and people dislike it, I don't see Valve has any incentive to organize something like this. What I do not understand, but it really doesn't matter to me as I wouldn't open the boxes anyhow, is why they won't make a season themed box for the occasion. They sure as hell could. :P

2016-10-26 12:13

Good for u. Im okay with no skins at all

2016-10-26 13:25

i actually dont care fot the skins i mainly like the stickers

2016-10-26 05:21

2016-10-26 07:07

i got mercy in my 2 loot crate at lvl 2 xDD

2016-10-26 10:49

I have to disagree - I like the fact that v0lvo isnt going over the top with their holiday celebration. the Birthday hats, Knitted sweaters and pumpkins on the chickens are awesome only thing i miss is custom Zeus for everything liek it shoots candy idk

2016-10-26 05:24

It's most likely because: A.) most people lost their minds last time the masks came out B.) there were some actual bugs with the masks, like being able to see certain ones through smoke. C.) ESL Pro league is coming up soon and many will be watching What they could have done: Put it in beta or made it a server command

2016-10-26 06:22

beta purposes is to test things not to play solo with chikens with masks..

2016-10-26 07:28

Lmao who cares about halloween updates? How about just fix real problems...

2016-10-26 06:43

agree

2016-10-26 09:07

Must be hard to be Valve. >update skins and other useless shit => "WTF VALVE WE NEED REAL FIXES, BRING US INFERNO AND TUSCAN" >update bug fixes, make inferno, make inferno better based on feedback => "WTF VALVE WE NEED SKINS AND HALLOWEEN UPDATE YOU LAZY MOFOS" lol get ur things together community

2016-10-26 12:16

2016-10-26 12:22

This. Exactly this. People are never happy, 90% of the community is made up of spoiled brats who will complain about anything. I've played other terrible FPS before (Crossfire for example...), and I tell you, I'm grateful anytime I play CS:GO, when people spend their time complaining about details.

2016-10-26 13:52

Why can't we have both? Blizzard is miles ahead of Valve when it comes to this exact issue. I can think of nothing wrong in Overwatch yet Blizzard still adds new content and updates. While CSGO (a 15 year old game) is still having issues with shots registering like, wtf lol

2016-10-26 14:54

Blizzard is notoriously bad at balancing out games. If you like activision go play their games blizzard has no idea what they are doing half the time. Go look at what they've done to starcraft over the years. adding skins in overwatch is "content" ? gtfo lol.... Csgo has been out since 2012,GO is not 15 years old you ingrate. I like the fixes to inferno, Skins and Hats is not content.

2016-10-26 21:28

Lol no TF2 Halloween updates are not that good ever since they replaced gifts with contracts

2016-10-26 11:28

Lame update is better than mind blowing. And none is better than lame. So lame is just the second worst option.

2016-10-26 15:27

Because VALVE

2016-10-26 16:56

Why?? D2 is easily one of the best maps

2016-10-26 02:53

I think many people hate Dust2 because it's the most popular map.

2016-10-26 03:03

This.

2016-10-26 10:40

2016-10-26 10:52

people just say they hate because they play it all the time and get bored with it.

2016-10-26 12:57

Not in pro, it doesn't deserve to be a active map anymore, it's so plain.

2016-10-26 03:05

Not in pro? Well, it's only dodged because teams know each other well enough to know if they have potential to win in a map.

2016-10-26 12:17

Spotted cobble/overpass cod map lover :)))

2016-10-26 13:22

What do cbble and overpass have to do with cod? They're both good maps imo (I don't play them but I still like them) Not hating on d2 btw, it's my 3rd fav map.

They are decent maps actually. But the original versions were terrible. Now they are okay. But still imo way too many angles to check etc. To me they don't feel like CS maps and I've been playing the game for over 11 years

2016-10-26 22:49

I like Cobble overpass? never played cod lol... Dust2 isn't that bad I get bored of Cache/mirage too. All 3 of those maps always get played I like to play train/cbble every now and then.

2016-10-26 21:30

funny that the exact 3 you mentioned are the ones i only like to play. maybe its cause they have that raw feeling to it and the best aimer will pretty much always have the edge. maybe theyre "boring" cause teams have played them so much to the point where theyve pretty much mastered them as well as they possibly could. raw simple maps should be THE way to go in cs. not like cobble or overpass which have way too many angles for shitters to hide not to mention the fps drops that could be fixed by valve (but who cares right just go spend some money on a new cpu/gpu wtv) tl dr: d2 cache and mirage are easily the best maps in the pool not only because theyre super raw designing-wise but graphically as well (high fps) cheers

2016-10-26 21:43

who cares? it will be dust 2 anyway

2016-10-26 03:42

really boring map to play/watch imo

2016-10-26 07:08

Its diffrent than other maps, not so many tactis, more "pugy" style of play. I like to watch it cuse ususaly people have hugo solocarry preformances (guardian, niko, shox)

2016-10-26 09:00

It's actuzlly the less interesting map to play/watch. Very limited tactics, very plain map....

Nice operation, gg wp Valve.. fuck valve

Ikr? WTF happened to cool operation's every 4 month ?

2016-10-26 04:36

2016-10-26 09:05

I got 3 griefing bans in 1 account rofl

2016-10-26 10:34

Sounds to me like you go around asking people to report you for griefing.

2016-10-26 10:35

lool not really... the account was given to me by a friend, he was like gold nova so at the first time I was playing only zeus and knife, bang... BAN then at like DMG I got mad at pistol rounds for killing 4 and losing the rounds so I just went afk, fuck my teammates games... BAN last time, I just played zeus, tk sometimes ,etcetc... It's not that hard dude trust me

2016-10-26 10:38

I go afk many times... Earlier this week I had to go so I just typed +right in console and went away the whole game. I have never gotten a griefing ban.

For going mad at team mates and AFKing is resonable reason for ban (you could just abandon the game..), but in CSGO bans from playing on wrong skill level is stupid. I personally don't have time to rank up enough high, so I always play against people who are far less skilled than me (I have about 4000-5000h of 1.6 and 200h of CSGO). Also, getting banned from playing only certain set of weapons is a bit stupid, although understandable in ranked play. There should be a version of casual with 5v5 to allow that kind of play.

2016-10-26 13:54

ye like some automix community servers but with the search game feature! would be great :)

2016-10-26 17:22

lol

2016-10-26 21:32

ruining games 1,5 years (3-4 times a week with 5-6 ruined maps in a row) from 2 accs (with friend) ang got only 1 ban recently for a mounth. i guess its very hard to get ban.

2016-10-27 00:33

top fix. nice valve.

2016-10-26 05:50

What happens to skins? I wouldn't be sooo mad if I only had to rebuy an account but if I lost a shite tonne of money for shooting two Russian children in revenge...

2016-10-26 09:24

Awesome, was waiting for it.

yoo good one once again

wtf do they mean permanant conviction for greifing!!!

2016-10-26 02:32

If you get multiple griefing convictions via Overwatch you get perma banned

2016-10-26 03:35

Shitters get one chance. If people don't know how to conduct themselves online than rip account. I wouldn't mind sending them to non prime forcing them to play with other people like themselves.

2016-10-26 21:34

no matter how butthurt you are about it,a permanant ban for grefing is a bit extreme. ffs some killers dont get a life sentence.

2016-10-27 06:23

I've never got banned for griefing but I'm sure I was reported multiple times. I don't really know what these morons are doing to get a ban for griefing :D

2016-10-27 20:31

A temporary griefing conviction assigned by Overwatch will now be elevated to a permanent conviction if the suspect had a previous temporary griefing conviction. No majors for mic trollers I guess. What's the point?

2016-10-26 03:15

2016-10-26 07:09

so happy they permaban griefers now, i dont meet alot of them at global but they are annoying on my smurf.

very subtle

2016-10-26 11:59

oh sweet some more meaningless shit update from valve that will probably cost me another 30 fps.

2016-10-26 03:45

haha maybe don't use only 6700k processor and 4x gtx980, retard farmer just kidding

2016-10-26 12:44

WTF with new update sounds???Anyone getting issues with sound in-game?

2016-10-26 04:17

same problem here, so annoying lol hope they fix it soon

2016-10-26 09:16

maybe they should focus on fixing the annoying as fuck bug where the scoreboard just disappears

2016-10-26 04:18

+1 hate when that shit happens and then you have to restart your game to fix it

2016-10-26 07:10

I just have to switch my res to something different and then back to my normal one to solve it.

2016-10-26 08:05

2016-10-26 06:11

valve hates wallbangs, yet they added the biggest one on the biggest chokepoint in banana

2016-10-26 07:16

Fixed a case where player would sometimes not be placed in competitive matchmaking queue correctly on the very first search after starting up CS:GO which required stopping search and searching again. (Thanks “Trip” for helping with diagnosing the issue) Took them a while.

2016-10-26 07:17

Right? Hasn't this been an issue for over a year now?

2016-10-26 09:47

hasnt that been an issue since the beginning of mm?

2016-10-26 12:54

1nd!!!!! YE FINALLY

2016-10-26 07:20

Added ability to accept friend requests from CS:GO main menu and to send friend requests from match scoreboard. THANKS GOD :)

2016-10-26 07:45

Griefing is one of the most abused features in-game. A 4-stack almost always files a report against the solo queue guy even if he's the one carrying them. Valve's solution? Go moderate it yourself because we don't give a shit about moderating player conduct in our own game.

2016-10-26 07:52

How to remove or organise the players who invited me, I see them first when i went on lobby CSGO...

Just make the wall bang like 1.6 and everyone will be happy

2016-10-26 10:37

Halloween in EU LUL

Fixed a case where player would sometimes not be placed in competitive matchmaking queue correctly What about that "ghost" green button that often appears after you already pressed it and you either press it again or leave it alone and it then disappears? Latency to official datacenters is now always measured using Steam Datagram Relay. Haha btw thanks for shitting on my ping to Austria - 35-40 ms before their stupid relay update, now it's the same as to Swedish servers. Thanks you idiotas! A temporary griefing conviction assigned by Overwatch will now be elevated to a permanent conviction if the suspect had a previous temporary griefing conviction. Griefed twice - go buy a new account. Why not, right? A permanent ban for griefing is stupid since they haven't yet banned a singe faggot that in fact griefed in my matches anyway.

Maybe that has something to do with that ghost button. and griefers are getting banned all the time.

2016-10-26 12:35

Permanent ban for matchmaking..LUL.. Like someone still plays mm 2k16

2016-10-26 11:15

Prety sure mm is more popular that ever.
