Today, Valve released a small Counter-Strike 2 update aimed at bug fixes and map improvements. The update size is 420 MB and it brings several enhancements to gameplay and visuals.

Map Changes

Various visual errors on Train, such as environment gaps, have been fixed. Dirt and moisture elements have also been added to the surfaces of crates and tarps, enhancing the map's realism. Gameplay changes include:

• The gap between Hell and Tunnels on bombsite A has been widened,
• The container near Ivy now has an open door 
• Addition of dirt and moisture to crates and tarp where necessary

Collision issues on the stairs under the balcony on Inferno have been resolved, improving player movement.

The update also fixes technical bugs:

• Discrepancies in the old SSG08 model and sticker overlays on Dual Elites have been fixed.
• An issue with the pistol holster hanging in the first-person model's legs has been addressed.
• A bug involving grenade and ragdoll interaction has been fixed.
• An issue where fingers intersected with butterfly knife geometry during inspection has been resolved.
• A problem where weapons couldn't be inspected immediately after use has been fixed.
• Game recordings in the Steam timeline now have markings for individual matches, making them easier to find.

Gameplay and Interface Improvements

Grenade tips no longer disappear when moving away from annotation nodes. A bug where silenced weapons could enter an incorrect state due to certain keys has also been fixed.

Valve continues to actively work on improving CS2, addressing issues that concern the community, and making visual refinements. We look forward to further updates in 2025!
