Earlier today, CSGO dev pushed an update for the game which was aimed at tackling a few bugs and gameplay changes to Vertigo, Nuke and Abbey.

[MISC]

  • Fixed line of sight traces for weapon pickup rules to ignore debris.
  • Fixed several HUD elements to respect cl_drawhud and cl_draw_only_deathnotices settings.

For Vertigo, CSGO Dev has reduced the damage of the wall bang from CT elevator which would hit T’s running out mid. This change will prohibit CT’s from getting a few cheeky kills at the start of the round. The red fence section which allowed an enemy to crouch there without being seen has been fixed. This change was first reported on Reddit by u/J3YRAZZ and brought to the attention of the developer by SPUNJ.
