As a seasoned gamer who has played Counter-Strike since its inception, I can confidently say that the recent update for CS2 on December 3, 2024, is a significant step forward in addressing longstanding issues. The improvements to ragdoll physics and low-end compatibility, particularly for the CS2 Workshop, are much appreciated.
Story Highlights
- Valve recently released an update for CS2 on December 3, 2024.
- The highlights are better accuracy for ragdoll physics and low-end compatibility the for CS2 Workshop.
- The update also addresses and fixes collision and visibility issues in Train and Overpass.
By December 3, 2024, there will be a significant overhaul in CS2, addressing numerous sizeable problems. According to their official website, one of the most notable adjustments involves undoing predicted ragdolls unless confirmed or corrected by the server and making it possible for CS2 Workshop tools to run on GPUs with limited memory.
Changes, notably improvements on maps, encompass rectifying collisions in Train and enhancing visibility in Overpass. It’s no surprise that these adjustments have caught the attention of the community, who view them as an important step towards reintroducing eagerly awaited maps to the active selection.
Besides these, there are also a few minor changes in the patches, too, including:
- Fixing the ‘boost player contrast’ visibility rendering option sometimes reveals parts of players or weapons through thin surfaces.
- Fixing various bugs in Hammer.
- Updating two Community-made maps—Edin and Palais—according to the Workshop.
- Changes exclusively for the ongoing Shanghai Majors.
A Step In The Right Direction For CS2
While this update indicates Valve’s commitment to refining maps and possibly reintroducing them into the main map rotation, it’s important to note that the key concern over the anti-cheat system remains unresolved. Nonetheless, enhancing compatibility for lower-end hardware and minimizing post-fight issues such as ragdoll physics is a small yet significant improvement.
Given that the Shanghai Majors are ongoing right now, it might have been more advantageous to release this update at a later time. If you’re involved in or considering participating in CS2 majors, taking training courses at venues such as CS2Pulse could be an excellent method for adapting to any competitive adjustments, like the recent update.
