Today’s update is all about maps, with significant changes to Vertigo, and an update to the map pool! We’re welcoming two maps to the pool: Breach, a defusal map set in a spacious corporate building, and Seaside, an old community favorite.

[CS:GO Update]Adjustments to Non-Prime

CS:GO went free to play over three years ago and is still going strong. We see new players entering CS:GO all the time, and it’s as important as ever that anyone in the world can pick up and play the game for free. Along with all the gameplay that we made available for free, new players had access to drops, Ranks, Skill Groups, and a free path to Prime matchmaking. Unfortunately, over time, those benefits have become an incentive for bad actors to hurt the experience of both new and existing players. So today we’re revising the offering for new players. New players can still play every game mode, play on community servers, and play workshop maps. However, they will no…

[CS:GO Update]Anu Map Who Bis

Today’s update includes an adjustment to the Active Duty map pool as well as some weapon adjustments. For starters, we’re making changes to the Active Duty map pool, which will determine which maps get played at the 2023 Paris Major. Anubis is being added to Active Duty and and Dust II is being removed. But both maps are still available in Casual, Deathmatch, and Competitive modes. We’re also making some adjustments to weapons. The AWP has had its magazine size reduced to five bullets (so make them count!), and the M4A1-S now does less damage at long ranges. Try the changes out and let us know what you think! And thanks for the blog post title, Ryan (@Schaffurr)! …
