Valve Improves Lag Compensation in Latest CS2 Update

CS2 Update Improves Performance and Fixes Bugs Just Before RMR

Valve’s latest update for CS2 brings a plethora of technical changes that optimize the performance of the game both from outside and inside that will make sure the game runs smoother than before, a change that has been widely appreciated within the community.

The lag compensation will help minimize the mechanical differences that players face in every match. This update comes in right ahead of the Major which means that the game will be more balanced walking into the RMR.

The full list of changes is as follows:

[GAMEPLAY]

  • Various adjustments to bullet hit feedback.
  • Fixed a case mid-spray where lag compensation would rewind target hitboxes further into the past than what was on screen.
  • Jumping in place on a sloped surface will no longer result in players sliding a short distance.
  • Fixed a bug where C4 could be defused from any height.

[ANIMATION]

  • Fixes for IK logic to improve third-person feet posing, especially on slopes.
  • Fixed a case where the feet and legs of players could pop out of position when exiting the bomb-plant animation.
  • Reduced animation-related network bandwidth usage.

[MATCHMAKING]

  • Added more detailed matchmaking stats for players who try to find a match at off-peak times of day.

[MISC]

  • Activating an Armory Pass no longer grants the first Armory Credit immediately. All 40 Armory Credits can be earned by playing and earning XP.

[MAPS]

Office

  • Fixed geometry in the problematic jumping corner.

Ancient

  • Reworked collision on the staircase to A-main for better player movement.
  • Removed a tree that was creating a distracting shadow at A site.

  • Reduced shadows to increase perf in some areas.
  • Fixed some spots in house where you could get stuck.
