It would be dope if eventually they fix the bug that when you alt tab you can hear gunshots from enemies across the map and they sound like they are right next to you.

[–]Thooorin_2Analyst, Content Producer - Thorin 430 points431 points  (67 children)

I get it every single time I play. I find that each time I get it I have to alt tab out and in a second time to fix it.

[–]stevew14 41 points42 points  (0 children)

Please upload a video of you playing CS and get Fiffy to commentate on it.

[–]ThakiinNinjas in Pyjamas Fan 1 point2 points  (5 children)

Doesn't 'snd_async_flush' work? I've bound p to that, and it works most of the time. :)

[–]ThermaldFaZe Clan Fan 15 points16 points  (0 children)

sometimes i get this bug when i open steam overlay too :(

[–]AntiRich11Guardian 6 points7 points  (5 children)

thinking maybe its gonna be a Post Major™ fix

[–]KsnNwkVirtus.Pro Fan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well they kinda did just the other way around, ALT Tab doesnt work for me anymore. Freezes my game after update and it crashes Fuking gg

[–]InfiernoDanteAstralis Fan 7 points8 points  (35 children)

I can't believe they haven't. I literally haven't played in 2 weeks because of that bug, as a serial alt tabber.

[–]Satyrs010101 17 points18 points  (26 children)

Well it disappears every round, so why do you need to alt tab every round?

[–]BasictigerRenegades Fan 12 points13 points  (24 children)

A lot of people alt tabe the moment they die.

[–][deleted] 44 points45 points  (22 children)

thats a bad habit and a half if ive ever heard one

[–]veniial 1 point2 points  (5 children)

there's a fix for it, "snd_async_flush" in console, but you have to do it every time you alt tab

[–]InfiernoDanteAstralis Fan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah i saw this in a thread ages ago, it never worked once for me

[–]robloblyVeryGames Fan 3 points4 points  (3 children)

it does not work for me

[–]SuperSlimekItaly Veteran 1 point2 points  (2 children)

so use this command a couple of times, it always works for me when I spam it a little bit

[–]MrPetrikovCobblestone Veteran 84 points85 points  (19 children)

[–]pranksta754 47 points48 points  (3 children)

Why is it such a pain in the ass to see patch details in steam? I shouldnt have to come here to read them

[–]wickedplayer494Ninjas in Pyjamas Fan[S] 62 points63 points  (2 children)

At the end of 2013, Valve for whatever reason decided to stop using the Steam store for things, and instead is using the CS:GO blog, which is why nobody's been seeing anything in Steam for the past two years.

Nobody knows why, and your guess is as good as mine.

[–]downvoteme2oblivion 6 points7 points  (1 child)

Probably because you can easily access blog's updates page from the main menu. But why not do both?

[–]hitemlow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Or link the blog to post to the Steam page. Like TF2 does.

If you check the update notes for TF2, they're always duplicated because it's copying the update notes from the blog and they post them on the Steam page.

[–]LotusCSGO5 Year Subreddit Veteran 167 points168 points  (15 children)

Man, they fix the tree (very good), but don't fix the barrels. Ah well, maybe next time.

my main position i hate it so fckn much

[–]Sad_Mute 15 points16 points  (4 children)

If it is your main position, nuances that aren't immediately apparent like that should give you the advantage over some scrub who has no idea.

[–]RadiantSunmousesports Fan 4 points5 points  (1 child)

It's annoying either way. Most people at a higher rank know about the shitty barrels anyway, but not being able to shoot what you can clearly see is a bad thing anyway.

When low content updates come out in the thread people would usually post this GIF: https://imgur.com/IgMyx Hencing the fact that nothing good comes up. Now that link above us shows that there is a black man in the fridge symbolizing that we got a good load for this update

Hey, does someone happen to have a magnet around here somewhere so I can put something on it for myself?

[–]yosonyNinjas in Pyjamas Fan 2 points3 points  (6 children)

can somebody tell me what valve means when they say Added backface to door in upper park

[–]leagueisbetterTeam Solomid Fan 7 points8 points  (5 children)

i think its talking about an invisible part of the map that was noticed when navi did their boost with guardian. So now you can no longer see through that door if you do that boost

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (1 child)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uj3DYcFJWpA

edit: There was another video that explained it better, i cba to find it now. But I guess the update is on the same topic.

[–]WeRSpecialPeopleTactics 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It does, the back part of the door wasn't actually there or showing up before, they have it fixed now

[–]vaynebotGuardian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't man, it's kinda obvious they're not gonna make huge changes to the game right before the major. I'd be more excited for an update that comes out 2-4 weeks after the major. ;)

[–]HwanZikeAstralis Fan 19 points20 points  (18 children)

This update includes a previously released patch for gameservers to deny setinfo calls for keys that weren’t configured at client connection time.

Is this to address the server crashing exploit?

Also, no fix for the alt tab sound bug yet? Damn it

[–]ThatNotSoRandomGuySK Gaming Fan 25 points26 points  (11 children)

Yes, this is for the crash exploit.

The exploit was basically spamming the setinfo command to create a large amount of key-value pairs. It would eat the servers CPU.

Like so:

for (int i = 1; i < INT_MAX; i++) {
    char buf[128];
    sprintf(buf, "setinfo %d %d", i, i-1);
    g_pEngine->ClientCmd(buf); //Execute command
}

This would lag everyone and eventually crash the server.

[–]HwanZikeAstralis Fan 5 points6 points  (2 children)

What exactly does the setinfo cmd do anyways?

[–]ThatNotSoRandomGuySK Gaming Fan 15 points16 points  (0 children)

It sets a key-value pair.

Like "setinfo name HwanZike" will set the value of the key "name" to HwanZike.

The problem here was that when you use setinfo with a key that doesnt exists, the server creates the key. So all you have had to do is keep spamming setinfo with different keys and it will lag the server to death cause it keeps creating an unlimited number of keys.

[–]Wintermute1v1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I could be wrong, but I believe the small optional server-side update released a few days ago was to address that. This update may be a follow-up to that as well.

[–]WasserEsser 0 points1 point  (3 children)

Yes, it's the fix for it.

[–]shekidem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So thats why i was getting random ass disconnects in the past few weeks and could not reconnect.

[–]TheNoobGodKinguin Fan 11 points12 points  (9 children)

They didnt fix the sound problem? Rip

[–]Rock48 9 points10 points  (7 children)

This would suggest they do not know what the problem is. Software development is not an easy thing you know

[–]TheNoobGodKinguin Fan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

True. It is hella annoying in game. I hope Volvo fires up their engines and gets shit done.

[–]tgsan 0 points1 point  (2 children)

I can't even remember...did they post who's all playing or are they still voting?

[–]stere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are still voting for a few hours I think. Then they have to contact the top players if they want to participate in the all-star game.

However the grand final players will not be available for the all-star match, so will not know until the end anyway.

[–]JinjaHDGenuine 750k Party Pin 3 points4 points  (4 children)

What's a backface?

[–]MrKill4GameOffice Veteran 5 points6 points  (0 children)

when guardian did one of his boosts, the backside of an object wasn't textured. you can see that here. they fixed that this update

[–]Greenhorn24 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The opposite of a front face

[–]PiecejrFaZe Clan Fan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The triple boost that na'vi did on overpass (in party looking towards long) allowed you to look through the back of a door directly onto the area of long near A site (IE you were looking through a texture)

[–]chaset 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Grove was an incredible man. For those that don't know, he was one of the founders of Intel and known as the father of Silicon Valley. I recommend reading his book "High Output Management".

[–]Caillan12SK Gaming Fan 8 points9 points  (21 children)

Was genuinely worried they'd add Nuke to the active duty pool for the major...

[–]68MaD219 14 points15 points  (3 children)

[–]KaffY-Dust 2 Veteran 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Most likely for the all-stars/caster match

[–]TrollingGuineaTeam Dignitas Fan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

obviously for all star match

[–]OmaszG2 Esports Fan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

maybe they gonna play on nuke for the all star match

[–]basicxenocide 6 points7 points  (13 children)

Oh my god, what if nuke was the tiebreaker map for the final. Think about it!

Splyce is barely able to take Dust2 and Inferno off of C9, 16-13 and 16-12 with a huge comeback on T side inferno after losing the half 12-3.

Cloud9 destroys Splyce on Train and Cache, 16-2 and 16-3.

Final map: Nuke. No one has practiced anything, just comes down to ridiculous frag battles and angles no one knows.

[–][deleted] 12 points13 points  (3 children)

Don't know what is more unlikely, Nuke getting into the map pool and it being the deciding map or C9 actually making it to the final.

[–]Daisho_Astralis Fan 10 points11 points  (0 children)

says nothing about splyce

nice meme

[–]giantjensenWinstrike Fan 5 points6 points  (1 child)

You're questioning the C9 part more than Splyce?

[–]nicolasyodudeValeria 4 points5 points  (0 children)

[–]Rock48 20 points21 points  (12 children)

For anyone asking: no they did not remove the triple boost spots on overpass.

[–]TyCooper8Virtus.Pro Fan 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Although they fixed the broken textures when you're using it. No reason to block triple boosts entirely.

[–]vikinickTeam Liquid Fan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Grenades will no longer fall between cracks in Bombsite B" I assume that means on the "bridge"? so basically you can wing it and nades won't screw up, to an extent of course..you should be punished for throwing a bad smoke, but whatever.

[–]Rock48 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Please stop complaining. I'm 100% sure valve is aware of the issue and is working on it, the fact that they haven't fixed it means they probably don't know what is causing it, which is understandable when dealing with an engine that probably has hundreds of thousands of lines of code that could go wrong.

[–]deeprNRG Esports Fan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The all star stickers make sense of the whole situation where players were dying to be voted in for something I considered would be waste of time for players. I am guessing these 'team NA' and 'team EU' stickers will contribute funding to the players playing in such matches.
