Boost and crouch-jump bugs fixed in CS update

4-9-2024 00:57

Valve fixed the boost bug after community members found a consistent way to reproduce it.

Valve has shipped a bite-sized but important update to Counter-Strike 2 which seems to finally have resolved the "boost" and "crouch-jump" bugs that have plagued players for close to a year, with their previous attempts to resolve the problem falling short or introducing new issues.

Latest CS2 update causes further boosting issues*

The boost bug caused players to bob up and down on the player boosting below them, inducing inaccuracy and rendering the boost useless for taking a gunfight.

"Poggu" and a handful of community members found a way to consistently reproduce the bug and discovered that it was induced when a player dies while standing on a ragdoll, causing client-side collision to permanently be disabled for that player. After finding the root cause, Poggu stated the bug would be trivial for Valve to fix.

Valve also fixed the "crouch-jump" bug, which occurred when players would try to crouch-jump onto ledges in many locations including Heaven on A site Anubis and Window at B on Dust2. The developer's patch notes stated this was a bug that "could cause inconsistent jump heights."

The brief patch notes can be found below:

[ MISC ]
- Fixed a case where some commands, including jump, might be ignored under poor network conditions.
- Fixed a bug that could cause inconsistent jump heights.
- Fixed a case where client-player collision would remain disabled after ragdoll interaction occurred in the previous round. Thanks for the repro steps, @poggu__.
- Fixed a case for Linux users where the game would hang when opening the pause menu.

W We prefer this to an operation tbh

i've not encountered that for many months, its gotten so much better maybe high ping issue for you?

2024-09-04 02:29

Yes maybe its ping issue. I didn't play on less than 39ms for a few months now so I can't say if its my issue or not anymore just I know on release everyone was having it.

2024-09-04 02:37

Sad for you Do you play faceit? where is nearest server for you When you watch POV on Twitch/Youtube you can see how it is for others

2024-09-04 21:51

I play on 50-60 ping and have stopped having those rubber banding issues for a while now. Whenever they made that netcode patch is the first time I've been able to smoothly move near teammates for as long as I can remember, including in csgo.

2024-09-04 08:44

cs2 is saved, round of applause to gabe newell

2024-09-04 00:59

good move

2024-09-04 01:02

old bob when?

2024-09-04 01:05

Never

2024-09-04 07:39

I'm hoping the ability to shoot while boosted can help me against the 4 spinbotters on other team

2024-09-04 01:07

faceit.com/en This helps against cheaters

Damn the 3 devs actually update something. Now fix movement accuracy and being killed behind walls.

3 replies

They did this on 30 minutes break after working on deadlock for past 6 months.

2024-09-04 02:06

Movement accuracy is the same as in csgo and dying behind the walls was also in a previous game, but due to subtick it's more apparent now (and the fact that everybody has the same delay now, regardless of ping of a particular player). However, in 99% of cases dying behind a wall is your fault, because of overextension.

2024-09-04 07:44

Because of subtick players with high ping kill you before they even appear on your screen. Amazing game.

2024-09-04 12:44

wow good job volvo! only took almost a month :D

2024-09-04 01:14

when will we get an actual update?

2024-09-04 01:29

Give lakehouse back in arms race

2024-09-04 01:34

This, the lack of maps in that mode is so annoying.

2024-09-04 03:33

W update, game needs more fixes before the operation update

2024-09-04 01:51

dude, there's only updates to fix problems that valve did in previous updates, like, how this game is even online? this game is so trash and broken omg hahahaha

2024-09-04 01:56

They need randoms on twitter to fix bugs for them... hahahha

2024-09-04 02:15

breaking: a player base of over 1000000 people per day discovers bugfix before a team of 300 people, more news at 10.

2024-09-04 08:50

300 is a very optimistic number

2024-09-04 09:16

Replicates a bug a year after release where it has since been one of the most obvious and annoying bugs that the devs were too incompetent to fix*

2024-09-04 13:01

How much since community found new bugs?

2024-09-04 02:25

welcome to programming my friend there will always be a bug

2024-09-04 02:55

Ye not like a multimillionaire company can’t fix movement and subtick on 1 YEAR, right?

2024-09-04 03:52

multibillionaire

2024-09-04 08:34

Isn't this poggu guy still game banned too for testing out the high sensitivity bug that use to flag you for cheating

2024-09-04 02:43

yes for over a year now I think

2024-09-04 03:27

Yes. And you would think that since Valve mentioned him in the patch notes they also unbanned him, but they didn't

2024-09-04 13:10

Sick valve but now pls properly ban commands to finally delete autostop cfg

2024-09-04 06:00

well

2024-09-04 06:12

Well done Poggu and everyone who tried to reproduce the bug and now finally got it. That´s huge one actually, it was in the game basically since the beginning of CS2 or at least a year for now.

2024-09-04 06:27

DId they unban poggu too?

2024-09-04 06:30

2024-09-04 08:51

thanks community valve did fantastic here, mucho work

2024-09-04 09:01

Shout-out to the individuals who tried to discover how to recreate this pug. You are doing important work

2024-09-04 10:44

Nice devs, now give your fat paychecks to the person who found the bug and is doing your job for you. Shameful.

2024-09-04 12:17

they already said they fixed it before. hope they actually fixed it this time as the jump bug was one of the most annoying things ever. now just fix nades bouncing back.
