Efter över en vecka utan uppdateringar släppte speltillverkaren Valve under natten till fredagen en av sina största uppdateringar till Counter-Strike 2. Den största nyheten i patchen är att utvecklaren nu gör det möjligt att ladda upp community maps till workshopen och gör det möjligt för community-servrar att hosta dessa kartor.
Omedelbart efter uppdateringen började kartskapare att ladda upp sina verk på worskhopen. Bland annat finns nu den mycket populära träningskartan Aim Botz tillgänglig för att ladda ner på Steams Workshop.
Utöver den stora community map-uppdateringen har Valve också implementerat flera stora buggfixar och förändringar i spelets gameplay och kartor. Exakt vilken omfattning och effekt som dessa förändringar, som uppgår till hela 41 punkter, är i skrivande stund oklart men lär utkristalliseras under de närmaste dagarna.
I uppdateringens patch notes uttrycker sig Valve på ett sätt som hintar om att utvecklaren lyssnat på feedback från communityt och addresserat några av de mest uppmärksammade buggarna. Bland annat har fiskmåsarna på Inferno tagits bort efter s uppmärksammade flash-incident på kartan.
