On July 13, Valve released another update to Counter Strike: Global Offensive. Its main new feature was bug fixes for the Ember and Hive maps. In addition, several other bugs that players may have encountered have been fixed.
The changes on Hive affected several gameplay points. In particular, the handrail models have been adjusted, as previously players who hid behind them were able to exchange fire, almost without showing themselves from behind the obstacle. In the central part of the map the lighting has been changed, and the train horn sound has been removed from the bomb planting point.
There are more changes on Ember. In particular, the rules of where weapons can and cannot appear have changed: next to the tunnel at the observatory it now does not happen, while in the dock building, industrial zone and hospital its spavn became possible. In addition, players now have the ability to climb onto the roof of the docks. They also fixed bugs when using ping tags and made a few other minor fixes.
The developers also updated the version of the R8 Revolver | Crazy 8 skin, which is used when low level of violence is selected in the settings, and fixed a bug, because of which in some cases the weapon of the player who killed the enemy was not displayed.
