Siden Counter Strike: Global Offensive blev udgivet har hovedmændene bag lavet ændringer på stribe. I dag er der atter kommet en opdatering, der ændrer på blandt andet lyden, når du lister og samler noget op, samt når bomben bliver plantet.

En af de helt store ændringer i denne omgang indebærer, at når en spiller lister og samler for eksempelvis en granat op, så er det kun spilleren selv, der kan høre dette og ikke hans med- eller modspillere.

Løber en spiller og samler noget op, vil lyden være fuldstændig den samme, hvor alle på serveren kan høre dette.

Også lyd-effekten ved plantningen af bomben har ændret sig. Når terroristerne begynder at plante bomben, vil en bestemt lyd sætte i gang, som alle i nærheden kan høre - til gengæld er det kun spilleren, der planter bomben, der kan høre bombens oprindelige plante-lyd. Dette gør det muligt at lave en falsk plantning af bomben.

Det er også muligt at sammenknytte sin Steam-bruger med sin Twitch-bruger, hvilket gør det fordelagtigt for de streamers, der er. Til sidst er der lavet ændringer på mirage og cache.

Den fulde opdateringsliste:

[GAMEPLAY]

  • Changed C4 planting sounds based on pro feedback. When planting the bomb, it plays an initialization sound that everyone can hear, but ONLY the player planting will hear the code typing sounds. This makes fake planting possible (similar to fake diffusing as a CT).
  • All items now follow the same pick up sound rules (grenades, C4, weapons, defuse kits, etc):
  • If a player picks up an item while running, it plays a pickup sound that everyone can hear.
  • If a player picks up an item while moving silently, it plays a subtle pickup sound to ONLY the player picking it up.
  • Weapons, grenades, and remaining money are now displayed as icons above player heads during freezetime. (Thanks R-arcHoniC)
  • Fixed overhead teammate arrows not showing up in some cases.
  • Fixed automatic observer target selection failing to find a controllable bot when a player was killed.

[MAPS]

Cache

  • Fixed lighting on prop in CT spawn.
  • Fixed buggy wallbangs at A main and B halls.
  • Fixed issue with dropping bomb behind spools in mid warehouse.

  • Increased size of Bombsite A plant area.
  • Opened up skybox in T spawn.
  • Improvements to visibility throughout the map. (Thanks andzie!)
  • General optimizations.
  • Smoothed out movement in Bombsite B.

[UI]

  • Added ability to link your Steam account to Twitch.tv account.

  • Fixed uncased knives with no finish displaying incorrectly in the GOTV and Demo UI.
  • Fixed spectator weapon panel staying visible when switching to Roam camera.
