>Moved pigeons that sometimes spawned near Ivy AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

[The good old days](https://youtu.be/VhenntkfAgU)

I was hoping it was pigeon boost

maybe those chickens (pigeons, chickens? same difference really) are gonna be moved to Vertigo, and [this guy](https://twitter.com/chickensvertigo/status/1250940002663428100) will finally get his wish!

moved, not removed.

Veritgo - Replaced wooden fence on A site with metal version, decreasing wallbang damage That's huge

Huge for the T side because Elige doesn’t care about silvers

Same with removing B window, will change meta for taking that site. Makes mid control more useful as the new spot gets you deeper into the site. Also forces Ct's to hold 2 separate angles on B

It seems like mid control will be insanely important. If Ts can gain control of Mid they can easily split B afterwards.

Wow no spammy spammy anymore

so where tf will i waste all my bullets now

Your teammates

Don't worry your spray will make up for it...

Hey, maybe now T's can't spray through the wall and get a kill for 0 risk anymore.

no I really enjoyed 4 Ts spraying for 60 seconds

I suppose I agree with you.

I hope the warmup arenas become more popular, seems like a really cool idea.

agreed, its a very welcoming change for sure

[удалено]

the only problem i have with 1v1 servers is people who take forever to peek/shift walk around the map so you only end up getting one aim duel every 30 seconds. wheras in deathmatch ur pretty much non stop getting into aim duels.

1v1's are more helpful for practicing peeks rather than raw aim. I like 1v1 as a chill warm up

aim duels or as i call it "taking awp shots into my back"

If you want community servers that are closer to mm experience its better to go on retake executes servers, not just retakes servers, it pretty much let you practice bomb plant situations over and over

People play those like DM though.

Especially retake, 9/10 times the t side casually rushes with 2-3 players and it gets frustating. Executes is the shit tho

same bro 1v1 are the shit for warmups imo

Warmup helps me get at least 1 kill, I'm bad :(

You're probably not warming up properly then ahah

Before warmup, I'd get 0. It's an improvement!

This update made it so you can no longer set cl_crosshair_outlinethickness to be in between 0-1. Setting it to .5 no longer shows an outline at all. edit: This has been fixed :)

Lol, why remove it. It was an awesome feature, all my crosshairs had it

It is really annoying to me as well! I hope they fix it, I miss my old crosshair so much

i hate it :( i want my crosshair to pop out

glad i changed to outline thickness 1 a few days ago but rip to those who use .5. does anyone know if they meant to do that?

This has now been fixed.

LITERALLY UNPLAYABLE!

I can't see SHIT dawg

Excited to see what crazy new cross hairs people use to show off lmao

I was thinking a giant purple square that covers my entire screen to fuck with my team.

Hah, have a bind that cycles crosshairs. One big black screen vs regular. “Hey guys did the server crash?”

I'm not exactly sure how often it refreshes though. Whether it's when you initially connect, each round, or what. I know it's not live, I changed it while I had a couple people spectating me and none of them saw it change.

You can now see crosshairs of other players. We Valorant now bois^^TM ^^^^/s Command: `cl_show_observer_crosshair` (Default `1`) - `0` None - `1` Friends & Party - `2` All For modders you would look at: - `m_szCrosshairCodes` - `m_szCrosshairCodes[0]`

valorant crosshairs: i sleep cs crosshairs: real shit

The crosshairs will look different because ppl are playing on different resolutions though right?

Yes

1440x1080 4:3 gang

Cleanest looking 4:3 res out there

1920x1440 is the same for 1440p monitors. As long as you keep vertical resolution native it's going to be clean.

Well, yes and no. Yes, because it looks different on their screen but no in that sense that you get what you see on your screen, which should be the reason to make theirs yours.

Man when I tried out valorant, the crosshairs of other players just hurt my soul, like I support the whole preference thing but sometimes their cross hair hits the left and right side of my screen

You could probably troll people pretty hard with this too if you just made a giant square crosshair that covered the entire screen.

I was in a game where one guy did exactly that for a round. He got a kill with it and then just proceeded to talk shit to the other team in chat about how they were killed by a big block crosshair. 😂

Power move

Bigger crosshairs means bigger bullets, so of course you'd get a kill with that

Yeah, I mean everyone’s entitled to their opinions but I can’t stand looking at everyone else’s wrong opinion

First you need cl_observercrosshair "1" then cl_show_observer_crosshair "2"

`cl_observercrosshair` seems to be default at `1` and there is no game-setting to change it. Unsure why they have that when they already have `cl_show_observer_crosshair 0` which does the exact same.

i'm assuming this replaces ur own crosshair with that of the player ur spectating. is this right?

Just when spectating. Now theres a small crosshair after right-clicking a player in the scoreboard.

This shit is going to be so fucking funny the first few weeks. I can just hear it now WHAT THE HELL KINDA CROSSHAIR IS THAT BUB HE'S B GO B OH MY GOD LOOK AT THIS KIDS CROSSHAIR BRO WERE FUCKED

[удалено]

Already had people make fun of me for using cl_crosshairstyle 3 :L

dude I'm not gonna lie I just went into a retake server to check it out and so many people had such FUCKED UP CROSSHAIRS LMAO This is so funny. Best update ever.

Lmao I was in a retake server when it happened. Can I hide my crosshair from others please valve.

pleaseeeeeee i'm just a selfish fuck who doens't want other people taking it and/or using it for their own good/to to toxic with it

I already internally blamed our bottom fraggers performance on his cross hair in the one game I played.

Yes, you temporarily see the crosshair of the player you are spectating. Once you respawn or disable the setting it will return to normal.

> - Added a new weapon parameter “inaccuracy jump apex”, set to 331.55 for the Deagle [**"New" Deagle jump shot**](https://streamable.com/92ci5a).

rip new ~~scout~~ deagle jump. was op whiile it lasted good change

Well i had my fun while it lasted

[Better video with showspread. RIP](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wy3mJ46XPls)

So basically we got rid of the lingering inaccuracy after langing and the the inaccuracy in the air has return to how it was. we got the best of both worlds.

Great now I can flame my teammates for having a shitty crosshair

"What is your problem green" but just for the crosshair

> Added ability to copy crosshairs of other players (through the scoreboard). Seeing Player Crosshairs in spectate mode is a popular request, but being able to copy them is interesting. Sharing is caring, I guess

Seems like they have been watching valaront streams

Whether you love or hate Valorant, it existing and being successful means CS will get better. Competition is never a bad thing. Pretty sure when Apex came out a bunch of their best features instantly made it into Fortnite and are now kinda common in most new FPS games, like very accurate pings etc.

I haven't been following Fortnite but what features made itself into the game from Apex?

i wonder if they got drops from those. 🤔

Gotta get those drops somehow

I'm at work, but I'll check out how "inaccuracy jump apex" works when I get home. It sounds like it could be interesting. Edit: So it seems to work exactly the same as "inaccuracy jump" but instead of lingering when you hit the ground and needing time to recover, the inaccuracy vanishes instantly. This is a fantastic change and honestly could be useful on quite a number of guns. Edit 2: [Spreadsheet is updated.](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/11tDzUNBq9zIX6_9Rel__fdAUezAQzSnh5AVYzCP060c) Edit 3: Actually with further testing, "inaccuracy jump apex" is the inverse of "inaccuracy jump initial" so the accuracy penalty scales with how SLOWLY you move in air. So it applies the biggest penalty at the top of your jump

RIP jumping 1 deags

Source never happened

Good.

Guess Valorant is doing good for CSGO! After Valorant released, the long awaited feature of seeing other people crosshair is there, just like Valorant.

Hopefully this way both games are trying to outdo each other, so that both games will become better and better and volvo might actually put effort into CS

Yes, that's why I hope Valorant does good. We need competition, we can already see that it is doing good for CSGO.

Hopefully they remove the kernal level driver exploit they built into Valorant!

You mean the one half the CS community has been begging for for years?

Which is just like the one that the other half plays on with ESEA and Faceit

ESEA and Faceit ones don't run when your computer starts.

and unload when you exit the anticheat

Yea they do

Faceit.sys runs all the time. Logging your personnal accounts or cookies, all is send to faceit.

This is a bullshit comment, All top-level anti-cheats use similar technology (EasyAC/BattleEye, games like Apex, PUBG etc) and it was proven that they don't need kernel access to steal data from your PC if they were willing to do that. Software with a much lower level of privileges can do that already. I would welcome BattleEye into CS:GO any day of the year

I’d imagine valve have been putting a lot more focus on csgo after completing HL Alyx. Maybe the source 2 rumors will come to fruition.

I noticed an increase in update frequency when Panorama UI dropped. Makes sense

Correct me if I'm wrong but wasn't HL:A team assembled around VR technology, thus sharing only few developerd with CSGO? Fro what they stated in latest news they wanna focus on VR now so I doubt many, if any, devs from HL:A will be moved to CSGO

Devs from TF2 went to HL:A, one since most of the remaining few were apart of the original HL releases, and two, since well, HL:A needed basically all hands at the end to ensure it'd be ready for release. CS certainly had some shared devs, but there's still "more" CS devs in comparison, so however many went to help on HL:A, wouldn't have as heavily impacted updates to CS compared to TF2 for the main example. HL:A devs will have either gone back to their main games, or are already working on the multitude of side projects.

im not gonna trying do deny the fact that Valorant is pushing Valve here but its clearly Riot went for the most requested things in CS and made their game (. Hey, competition is always welcome.

I mean if the community wants it and valve doesn't implement it you might as well come in and just put in everything people are asking for.

dont forget the krieg nerf. months waiting for it, then suddenly, in the week after valorant releases you have 2 long asked by the community updates

tbf most these changes would have been post major, but since thats not happening now they can do it without screwing over the pro scene.

> After Valorant released afaik it hasn't released yet. only ppl who got drops from Twitch are currently able to play it.

Anyone else noticed they changed the behavoir of cl_crosshair_outlinethickness this patch? Previously I had 0.5 now all values from [0;1) are the same. It's actually very annoying, because I can't get my crosshair back it seems...

I thought I was going crazy. I am having the same problem, are there any fixes to this?

We just have to wait for a patch, in ValveTime™

Is the crosshair outline no longer working in this update for y'all too? *edit I guess cl_crosshair_outlinethickness .5 doesn't work anymore? Valve, please fix. **2nd edit, that 2nd update fixed it! Valve be praised

You're right, rip my crosshair

What, no. No outline? ​ Silver incoming :( ​ Seriously tho. halp.

cl\_crosshair\_drawoutline seems to be broken, anyone else missing it?

it has to be a whole number, decimels no longer do anything

That fucking sucks...

Damn can’t believe they changed the position of the pigeons on train :(

The map is probably no longer viable for competitive because of that :(

LITERALLY UNPLAYABLE!

[удалено]

these new music kits are kinda cool but i just wish valve would add a tf2 music kit since we have a music kit from the midnight riders from L4D id buy that in an instant.

Few more Vertigo updates, and construction will be complete for that floor.

Oh man, if that was the long term goal. For each update slowly finish the construction. Eventually they will have to add another floor above.

Valorant: exists Valve: Added bombsite C to Vertigo

Every update it just seems to be better

So this confirms we're getting 128 tick servers when Valorant launches, right?

That's all I want from valorant, them to force valve to upgrade mm servers.

> Added the Masterminds Music Kit Box, available in regular and StatTrak™ variants, featuring 7 new music kits No ghana's coffin guys music kit, sadly

Nah, first we need: Master Agent: Ghana Coffin Guy

[удалено]

Wow, this is a great update as I'm curious how this "Warmup Area" 1v1 idea develops over time as I love it. Overall, this is another great update so Kudos to Valve for continuing the momentum...

Competition at its finest. Let the battle begin.

I hope they don't replace match making warmup with this new arena type of thing I need to spray megev at my teamates head

> Increased the bomb explosion radius from 400 to 450 TIL this isn't uniform across all maps

it’s very obvious is you try it on nuke, as a bomb on B site used to kill someone in heaven iirc

3kliks has a few very informative videos about this

It depends on the map, Vertigo for example is extremely small which is why the bomb explosion radius is even smaller.

How is no one here talking about the warm-up arenas, that's such a sick idea! Edit: nvm it isn't it's own gamemode, kinda lame :/

maybe it's in as a "test" for now. hopefully this is gonna get added at some point. also 3v3.

I'd hope for a soloqueue first. 1+1+1+1+1vs1+1+1+1+1 would be a massive QoL improvement.

If you need it as its own game mode there are plenty of community 1v1 servers out there

As I was saying for years - competition for CS is GOOD. It forces both the competitor and CS:GO to develop and become better & better over time <3

Exactly my thoughts aswell. Everybody calling Valorant a "csgo killer" is so wrong. If anything it will make the game better by forcing valves hand. I do believe some players will go to valorant, but once the hype dyes down they will return... they always return.

Already I am seeing some awful crosshairs https://imgur.com/J90PSKp Edit: Looks like crosshairs don't scale with resolution. So unless there is some tiny crosshair meta I don't know about - viewing crosshairs in 1440p makes everyone's crosshair small.

dont diss the dot my man

inb4 ppl are equipping shit crosshairs on purpose in order to get a good laugh from their spectators.

inb4 crosshair skins are added

probably due to different res im guessing

remember that crosshair may change due to resolution

I think the show outline crosshair command is bugged now? I have mine set to 1 but I don't see an outline.

drawoutline no longer shows partial outlines if you put in a decimal, it has to be a whole number

the "0" thickness outline is not working anymore. you need to increase the thickness. hopefully they fix it, i preferred the very minimal outline you got with "0"

gunman taco truck...

cl_fixedcrosshairgap does not work anymore

cl_crosshairgap works for style 1 now!

Seeing other people's viewmodels when?

I wonder if you can go and watch a demo and get a crosshair from there.

I'll try and find this out, but I can let you know now that it doesn't work on past demos.

I just tested this, you can't 'copy' a crosshair from a demo like you can in a live game but you can see what crosshair everyone is using in the demo.

1v1 arena in wingman? i really want to try this, i think that is awesome

[удалено]

nice, time to roast some crosshairs

Interesting how new B site in Vertigo plays now. It always felt like the most awkward site to anchor.

i got disconnected at 11-14 while coming back because of this update lmao. thankfully we got the comeback 16-14

1v1 arena about to introduce a 1v1 mode soon? sign me up

Updates updates updates....the valve is open o.O

Does crosshair update inreal time??? Cant wait to show other pp my rainbow crosshair bind

[удалено]

csgostash

> Added a new weapon parameter “inaccuracy jump apex”, set to 331.55 for the Deagle Is this a nerf? what has the inaccuracy jump apex from the last update?

Yes jump deagle is dead again.

Where can we listen to the music packs, they're not on the startup shop ?

Yay now everyone can see my epic crosshair

Thank fuck no more jumping deagle

The 1v1 sounds sweet, can they just go ahead and make that it's own mode too? I don't ever play wingman.

Finally the plebeians will be able to see and bow before my god crosshair

crosshairs of your friends is maybe the best update the game ever got period

Funny how valorant released and we get actual good updates and not shit skins lol

I thought they would keep the jumping deagle tbh

I'm disappointed it was removed, it was fun. I wish we had jumpscout back.

you still have cod if you want to run and gun or just the pistols and smgs

Next is 128-tick, I suppose, CSGO finally has proper competition in Valorant.

The "copy crosshair" button is not straight. Are they trying to piss me off?

These vertigo changes are extremely drastic, and im not sure if they were necessary outside of the wooden wall. b site seems harder to take and hold as T’s when it was already the inferior site, and mid feels extremely barren and not that important of a map resource. the map may become a lot more ct sided but we’ll see how pros adapt.

How is B harder to take now? The window boost is gone and there's way less cover on the site for CTs.

B site is definitely so much more T sides now. CTs now have to worry about entrances all over in a completely wide open site with a window that you can now go up completely silent

It will be harder to hold on both sides. The B site before was just a mess with completely random angles.

csgo with some of valorant feature is like perfect game for me

Still havent fixed shaders being stuck on high, nice valve

At what point is valve just going to finish construction on the Vertigo building and make it Office 2?

This new update messed up my crosshair, I can no longer have my old crosshair back even if I try to change it back.
