Dataminer Gabe Follower analyzed the latest interesting things found in CS2 files on his YouTube channel. They contained information about new cosmetic items, taunts, the Hunting mode, and more.
Taunts and animations
So far, the game files contain three taunts for the T and CT sides from the third person and four neutral ones. At the same time, they have no relation to the post-match screen.
In addition to taunts, the code contained animations of throwing hostages on the shoulder, animations of death, and animations of swimming - in CS:GO, the last one was quite bad because, in the current version of the game, the model simply runs in water.
Equipment
Valve seems to want to deepen customization in CS2, as some lines in the files mention six slots for cosmetic items: masks, headgear, etc. The developers may use the existing format from the game CS Online 2, released for the Asian market in 2013, where you can dress your character properly.
Pets
Capsules with pets also were detected. It is unclear what function they will perform, especially since, so far, the images with them have a placeholder with a chicken. They may freely roam the map, as it is done on Inferno. Ideally, it should be done so that they do not distract and almost do not affect the gameplay, as the feathered friends from CS:GO do. The function of Valve companions was previously implemented only in Dota 2. However, considering the set for one of the heroes is necessary to have one separate purchasable pet in the game.
"Hunting" mode
From the available data, the new mode will be a cooperative linear PvE mod against waves of enemies for a while. The mode will aim to get from point A to point B in the specified time, killing at least 20 enemies along the way, while each frag will add a few seconds to the timer.
