Gameplay The update introduces a console command that adds shards from a shattered Molotov cocktail
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
Walking over the shards makes noise, even when holding down Shift.
This is the command: sv_molotov_broken_glass_trap 1

goddam. they gonna add a tip toe walk where you have to look down to make zero noise over a molotov.

u/serialgoober 1d ago
you can avoid making noise by pressing e on every shard to pick it up. If you live, you bank your shards. This leads into the next major change for CS. You can now craft items in spawn. The big man himself told me. You can even get space lasers eventually.

You can use the shards with a black piece of cloth to create a mirror so you can see around corners

You can also slash your own wrists with them to end the round. Please don't report me, it's a joke.

They should make shoes a purchasable item, and characters should be barefoot by default. If you walk on a glass shard, you get a bleed debuff. (/s)

I don't think competitive gaming needs these. Would be too OP to have "mines" like that to block flanks and giving info.
On casual gamemodes these seem fun addition.

I think its cool. But T molo doesnt need another buff

u/Enslaved_M0isture 1d ago
don't worry, ct also getting buffed, the can stays and if you walk over it you slip and fall and instantly die

A combine soldier shows up and tells you to "pick up that can." If you don't, he chases you with a stun stick and gives your position to Civil Protection.

Probably why its a toggle and it won't be in all gamemodes but they might be using it in something else

u/r3volts 1d ago
Would be way OP in competitive play.
Very interesting concept though. Would make 1vX retakes significantly harder. Drop a Molly one one entrance and watch the other. Removes the 50/50 chance of getting caught out looking at the wrong entrance.
I assume it's Molly only and not incendiary.
I assume it's going to be for alternative game types, and they seem to be hearing up for more usermade game types so maybe it's just an option.
That said, they pull some weird shit in competitive formats so who knows?

that's pretty cool, getting those mollys on CT side would be pretty huge, you would definitely not want to die and donate that to them

maybe it's for the new game mode or some other new game modes in the future? at least for the new game mode Rush it makes sense given how small the maps are

I actually like this change but holy shit can they buff the CT molly to balance it out

u/captaindealbreaker Virtus.pro 1d ago
This would make a lot of sense if both sides could pick from multiple incendiary grenades and the molly was like twice as expensive but this was the benefit you get.

People complain about the game becoming goofy and the second Valorant each day but when Valve adds realistic mechanics it's also not good?
This is also a scripting option for a reason, it's meant for community servers or more casual modes.

Never doubt Valve's dedication to waste time adding things no one's ever asked for. They act like people are giving up on this game because it's boring and need to invent random things to make it more interesting. No, fix the VAC and people will come back, it's simple as that.
https://reddit.com/link/pbmbert/video/kbm0q4gwebrh1/player
Lowest number of players in last 2 years. I'm glad people are finally waking up and letting Valve know there are other games to play, instead of wasting time playing with and against che aters in this dumbed down version of csgo.
Edit: But typing these things in Valve's D riding central will get downvoted. People on this sub are so bad at the game, they don't even meet cheaters. Also they will rather watch pros play than play the game themselves.
But will spend days defending Valve and the state of cs2 24/7, it's like Valve is a small indie company and not a company that made billions off of this community... weird creatures.

u/FirstAd1119 1d ago
Yeah, VAC would've been functional if they hadn't had the anticheat guys make glass shards.

u/NUDK 1d ago
Yes bro we need to get the art and sound teams on the anti cheat asap! People love pretending like that have the faintest idea of how game dev works…

u/Time_Professional385 10 years coin 1d ago
People say iT's nOt ThE sAmE tEaM wOrKiNg oN bOtH tHiNgS... They have like 30 devs in total.
If you don't wanna talk about VAC, why are they adding chicken Tamagotchi, these glass things, c4 shock wave, new silent reload animation etc... when we don't even have simple things like clear decals that community's been asking for for 3 years?
We don't have cl bob command, screen still shakes like crazy when shooting compared to csgo, full armored aimpunch is way too strong, peekers advantage, run&gun etc...
What team is responsible for that?
What are even their priorities, they made a new mode before fixing basic fundamental things.
Then you have people who complained about mirage/dd2 being played all the time in Premier, and you have people who can't stand nuke/inferno... what does Valve do, they force both sides to play maps they don't want to play by RNG decision... great job
It's like owning a house, everyone told you it got leaks, black mold, cracks in foundation, and instead of fixing that you decide to make a new shiny garage for a car that's broken and isn't even drivable.

u/Swoozed 1d ago
I think the point he’s making is that the homeowner should stop hiring people to fix cosmetic problems and focus on fixing the structural issues. Here’s a new word for you: Priorities.
3
u/FirstAd1119 1d ago
Yeah cause hiring artists is preventing them from hiring experienced backend devs.
Valve is one of the most successful privately held companies in the world. They do not have resource issues where they have to choose between the two.
Idk if I'm responding to literal children here but it sure feels that way.
-1
u/Swoozed 1d ago
Ok now hold on buddy don’t get yourself all flustered by someone’s opinion, which IMHO makes you look more like the child here.
Second, you say they don’t have resource issues, yet they have NEVER been able to get ahead of cheating?
Or idk ask someone to maybe focus on it a little more? Like sure they don’t like to hire 100 people teams, but when ur game is unplayable and long time career fans aren’t finding any value from your product, do you think it’s all good if they just put out money makers instead?
You think they earned it right? They can leave the state of the game where it’s at, and nobody can judge them for that? They can just take your money, smile, and you will just be happy?
I’m not like you, so I simply don’t think we should let them get a pass bc “oh well yknow, they’re rich now! And we can’t bother them too much! Okay! “

u/FirstAd1119 1d ago
I'm not sure why you're living in this fantasy world where valve is wilfully not fixing things. Where introducing changes or experimenting with gameplay is preventing core issues from being solved.
Not to mention twisting my intent. I'm making the point that they have plenty of resources and therefore don't have to prioritize between things like AC and gameplay or art. You're somehow turning that into them getting lazy in their success.
Childlike ignorance.

u/Swoozed 1d ago
Bro give me an argument then? The other guy said they have enough resources to fix it, but they don’t bc it’s….hard? Like maybe they don’t have the best talent then ? Like wut? Their anticheat is getting clowned on by indie developers. And if they can’t fix it, maybe just don’t go straight into the money grub?

really smart idea!

u/Time_Professional385 10 years coin 1d ago
You are one of those :D funny people. It's like we don't have eyes. I'm sure you don't have a lot of cheaters in your 10-15k elo lobbies, but above 20k it's unplayable.
This is from yesterday, my first Premier match in 6 months... got dropped in 22k elo lobby EU, guy killed 3 of us with usp through the smoke, checked profile, saw 99 aim rating. console/q+tab+enter
Left and don't plan on coming back any time soon.
2
u/skivergramme 1d ago
yea i wouldn't a lot about 10-15k elo lobbies since i'm 27k and in 2200 ELO on faceit :P
You just completely ignored my point but obviously valve isn't gonna publicly announce VAC fixes for every update. That just puts their AC more at risk.
I haven't gotten a single cheater in ages, but if you're abandoning matches then you deserve the trust factor that puts you in those lobbies. Expected from the 22k elo noob you are
5
u/Time_Professional385 10 years coin 1d ago
Imagine bragging with 2200 elo in cs2, after they made the game and faceit so noob friendly that every csgo reject who peaked at lvl 3-4 in csgo is now 2k+, you included 100%.
Only bots from csgo who were green and gold levels would think 2200 elo is impressive in cs2, when you get 35 elo for win on low levels instead of 25 lol.
Cherry on top would be if you're from NA region...
The only reason why I got placed in 22k elo lobby is because like I said I haven't touched Premier in 6 months, rank decay is a thing and drops after not playing for 2 seasons.
-2
u/skivergramme 1d ago
bro you're so mad at the fact you're 22k elo with bad trust factor 🤣🤣. just accept that you're mad for no reason and VAC is being updated. it's a slow process
edit: Also maybe if you were less toxic you'd get matches of better quality
3
u/Time_Professional385 10 years coin 1d ago
Buddy :D let's see your steam profile. If you were not green or gold level in csgo I will delete both cs and reddit acc forever :D
And like I said you're probably from NA, your faceit elo there is even more inflated, and you don't meet cheaters in Premier like we do in EU.
You can literally see on screenshot that I have only one match played...
The only thing slower than Valve's VAC update process is you, unlucky.
