After 10 long years, fans got the updated version of 2012’s Counter-Strike: Global Offensive called Counter-Strike 2. The game was better than its predecessor as major technical improvements were made and a new game engine was utilized. The game had everything but a very important feature was missing: left-hand ViewModel. Popular games like Valorant have had this feature since the very beginning and it was very unusual of Valve to not add this feature since it was available in CS:GO.
Finally, the wait is over as a new Counter-Strike 2 has added this feature. With constant updates, Valve has been working hard to create a better gaming experience for the players as the game had a rough start. Many adjustments have been made in this update, including the return of the Overwatch anti-cheat monitoring system.
Counter-Strike 2 finally gets left-hand ViewModel
With the latest Counter-Strike 2 update, Valve has made some major changes to the game to make it much more playable. Finally, one of the most requested features is now available in the game: left-hand ViewModel. CS2‘s predecessor, Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, had this feature so it was strange that this game didn’t have it but now, players can utilize it to peak corners with ease and churn out more kills.
There were rumors about Valve updating CS:GO‘s game engine but the announcement of a completely different game caught everyone by surprise. CS2 was a major jump from its predecessor as it boasted better graphics and a better game engine. When the game was released in September 2023, it lacked a lot of features but with constant updates, Valve is improving the game.
Many changes were made in this Counter-Strike 2 update
To summarise things, Dust 2 has now returned to the Active Duty map pool, replacing Overpass. Various bug fixes and minor performance improvements have been made to maps like Overpass, Nuke, Vertigo, Mirage, and Office while the Infreno has witnessed some major changes. Many more changes have been made to HUD, Buy Menu, Gameplay, and Inventory. Check out the complete list on Counter Strike‘s official website.
Valve’s Counter-Strike series has been popular for over two decades now as the series began on Windows in 1999 with the release of the first game, Counter-Strike. Without a doubt, the Counter-Strike series has popularised the idea of a multiplayer tactical first-person shooter, and even today, it remains one of the most popular video game franchises in the world.
