CS:GO update with price adjustments and gameplay fixes

27-9-2017 03:11

The most recent Counter-Strike: Global Offensive update brings changes to the interaction between smoke grenades and flames, and lowers the prices of the Revolver and Dual Elites.

The case in which dropping a smoke grenade on burning surface would not work as intended has bothered CS:GO players for quite some time now, and is now, hopefully, no longer a part of the game due to the recent updates to the smoke and flame mechanics.

Alongside those mechanical changes, Valve decided to reduce the price of the Revolver and the Dual Elites by $100, making them $600 and $400, respectively. Among miscellaneous changes, we saw the addition of a new crosshair option, "cl_crosshair_t"—a T-shaped crosshair.

The full list of changes in the 9/26/2017 update is available below:

[GAMEPLAY]

Fixed rare cases when smoke would not extinguish fire when it bounces between the flames.
Reduced the height at which smoke grenades that bounce off of walls can extinguish flames.
Fixed a bug where bullets could sometimes fail to penetrate player arms.
Reduced price by $100 for both the Revolver (now $600) and Dual Elites (now $400).

[MISC]

Fixed gloves not appearing on certain custom maps that skip default equipment.
Added an option cl_crosshair_t for a T-shaped crosshair.
Fixed StatTrak™ music kits not showing StatTrak™ logo in limited time offers.
Fixed a case where certain cheats could approximate the random seed used on the game server.
Added a way to acquire a worldwide CS:GO license for accounts running outside of CS:GO Launcher.

2017-09-27 07:57

11 replies

For a 10$ game, we have no right of asking 128 tick servers. Reowrking the VAC will make it intrusive like ESEA and FaceIT and then you will lose your mind as well. How about you respect Valve for listening to community feedback rather than beating the old drum again?

2017-09-27 09:51

9 replies

They recently started listening to the community feedback remember when they added Revolver to the game without Beta testing.. Plus who wanted Gloves? I am pretty sure nobody wanted a glove update to the game let alone them being as rare as a knife. At a certain point they have to work on the game you can't play mm in its current state mm is filled with hackers how are they going to fix that without reworking VAC?

Yes I remember that but what they wanted were Gloves with Team Logos on it..plus even if they never added gloves in the game how was it going to affect the actual gameplay? They can atleast make the game more fun and enjoyable after fixing Vac

2017-09-27 12:36

2 replies

I think the word 'upgrade' is what you are looking for instead of 'fixing' because the VAC system works perfectly fine it's just not very good. Also please think about this a game like CS:GO where the dev team is small do you think it's that easy to just straight up implement a whole new anti-cheat system or change their whole server systems to 128 tick? Look at it from their POV. Releasing skins is so easy because some of them are made by the community and not them, it's literally a piece of cake and yields results as people even to this day have a huge interest in skins. Also if the whole source 2 rumours are true then why even bother? why not just implement all those 'big' updates along with source 2 and in the meantime as a side project work on smaller easier updates that give them more time to work on source 2.

2017-09-27 12:42

1 reply

Actually VAC is ok at what it does.. The thing is that it'a passive AC, which is quite frustrating as it does nothing in the instance when the cheating happens for most cases. Ban waves are fun to see tho.

2017-09-27 15:36

The game might be 10$, but i can imagine, that makes up less than 10% of their income from csgo. If you get a case, and you sell it, they get 15-30% of that money. When they give you drops its like the government printing money.

It's delicate you know, because regardless it's going to change the game. People THINK they want change, but no one knows how it will pan out. This is why Valve is afraid to test it before it's 100%.

2017-09-27 12:20

Interacting with the community? Lol Streamers can literally say 'he's stream sniping' and an admin will ban him without any proof whatsoever. How do you call that interacting with the community when you could literally get banned just because you killed a salty streamer. Just look at the recent reviews on steam and tell me that they are 'doing what's right for the community' store.steampowered.com/app/578080/PLAYER.. I remember the score being over 9/10 now it's 7/10 and when the streamers lose interest in the game it will die.

2017-09-27 13:08

You PUBG fanboys needs to get some fucking gaming industry knowledge. I've been playing games on gaming installations since 1997, it's annoying me how people is THIS damn deluded when it comes to games. Here's a few facts for your sorry arse to digest: 1. PUBG is popular right now, yes, due to streamers. Do you even realize how much of the weight they are pulling? That's right, a whole crapload. 2. Streamers are getting innocent people punished/banned for stream sniping, when in reality said streamers just got killed because of a bad move, or because they suck at the game. In literally over half the cases, the players didn't have their shitty stream open. GG, when bans starts happening on the basis of nothing, it's crap. Not to mention a direct violation with freedom of choice and free speech, which PUBG and streamers doesn't seem to respect. 3. Updates happen 10x more frequently because it's early access. If you seriously believe updates will happen THIS frequently when it's released, you must be a newfag. 4. CS:GO gets regular updates again, fixing relevant bugs and changing the pistol meta atm, with a Dust II remade map to be released in the near future, along with some new maps being made permanent to replace some of the old bore-festivals. Scared? I aren't think that 5. THEY ARE TWO DIFFERENT GAMES, YOU IDIOT. This is why CS:GO players are going there, because it's new.

That is how they are mentioned in the official update changelog. It also seems to be a valid alternative name.

2017-09-27 14:46

They probably are like "Let's hope the community now comes back" We can release at the mean while maybe new operation and few cases. Yea that sounds cool.

2017-09-27 14:21
