Workshop maps added to CS2

In the latest update Valve enabled workshop map uploads for CS2 along with community servers. Workshop tools have received updates as well to make the creation process more streamlined.

Various gameplay fixes including netcode modifications were shipped with the update. Valve claims to have treated several circumstantial bugs including weapon carry-over for overtime rounds, bugged gunshot animations and guns falling out of the map.

The competitive tab now shows wins required and total wins for each map and as with every other update, Valve have tweaked stickers and weapon finishes again. The smoke grenade now features a chrome finish and "Boost Player Contrast" no longer applies to dead players.
