In addition to the visual indicator for audio in the radar, Valve claims that the sound engine in Counter-Strike 2 has been updated. You can see how far your steps are audible just like valorant.Ī bright light will be over the radar when you shoot. There will be a circular ring around your character whenever you make a sound, and this indicates the area in which other players can definitely hear you. The radar (or mini-map) in CS2 has been updated (courtesy: from Twitter), and it now includes a visual indicator for your footsteps. In addition to this, a big boom happens when the C4 explodes on a site, as if a mini-nuke exploded in that area. The fire from molotovs or incendiary grenades also looks more alive now. HE grenades explode differently and look realistic as the effect takes place when they land. New Environmental & Blood Splatter EffectsĬounter-Strike 2 has brand new effects on how the environment interacts with other in-game elements. Do you think these CS2 smokes need a rework?Ħ. Let’s see how this new mechanic plays out, as it could go through changes if the player feedback is overly negative. There are new competitive possibilities that the overhauled smoke grenade brings in Counter-Strike 2. If your teammate or enemy shoots at the smoke, that specific area gets ‘carved out,’ making the player on the other side visible. For example – if someone pops up an explosive HE grenade next to the smoke, it will completely disappear for a few seconds. And guess what – the smoke is responsive to guns and explosions as well. The smoke can expand to a surrounding area as well. It’s not just this, but as the smoke develops, it forms around the area where it was placed, and the physics for this is impressive.
They are visually upgraded, volumetric, and looks like actual smoke pouring out of a grenade. In Counter-Strike 2, the smokes are completely different. Nothing that the players did could remove the smoke from that area until the time for it had expired. Previously in Counter-Strike, landing a smoke in a certain area would make that area covered in a grey fog, which is what smokes do. This is one of the biggest new features in Counter-Strike 2 - the new smokes. And in the Overhaul category, Valve says maps have been fully rebuilt from the ground-up.
#COUNTER STRIKE NEW UPGRADE#
In upgrade maps, the lighting, materials, and reflections have all been upgraded dramatically. So what is the difference? In the touchstone maps, few alterations have been made but some changes can be observed. Valve has classified CS2 map overhauls into three categories – Upgrade, Overhaul, Touchstone. Also, by noticing the props in the game, they point to the fact that ‘time has passed’ – some of the maps have been updated with new models for various objects, such as the sinks in Overpass being replaced from a basic one to modern ones. Popular maps like Dust 2 and Mirage have been ‘enhanced’ with the visual quality upgrades that the Source 2 Engine brings. In Counter-Strike 2, many old maps have received a complete overhaul with a brand-new look. It’s important to note that the new VAC Live anti-cheat system is definitely not kernel-level, like many other games are. Valorant has had a similar feature in its kernel-level Vanguard anti-cheat system, which notifies players that the match has been terminated because a cheater was detected.
And if that ban happens, the match will end right away. One notable feature here is that Valve devs have made it so that if a cheater (such as someone using aimbot or wallhacks) is detected in an on-going game, they could get banned swiftly.
If a cheater gets detected during a match, the match will be cancelled! /PQY88sBlMl- Aquarius March 23, 2023 Looks like some sort of new anti-cheat measure is in the works for Counter-Strike 2 called "VAC Live".
