CS:GO commentator Mohan "launders" Govindasamy speculated that there might exist two different versions of Counter-Strike 2, influenced by his experience of playing the new shooter on two distinct computers. He shared his thoughts on Twitter.

Govindasamy pointed out that one of the CS2 variations consistently lags, while the other version is more akin to CS:GO in terms of optimization. He also hinted that Valve has six days to address the issue, possibly alluding to a release date on September 27th.

Some gamers have also reported noticing a difference between CS2 versions on various accounts and computers. One Reddit user mentioned the "A/B" testing method, where groups of people are presented with different versions of a product to pinpoint the best qualities of each.
