Thank you philip for working on this video, so that valve could then tactically roll out an immediate patch to make it outdated. Without you we would never see such quick patches and updates.
Now please go on another vacation so we can get CS3.
the problem with cs3 existing is that valve can't count to 3 yet

I've been waiting since HL: EP2 for Valve to count to three. Years of releases: Left Four Dead TWO, Portal TWO, DoTA TWO... Still no three in sight
excited to hear how loud the song is gonna be
it was fairly loud
ow
Sound needs to be more loud
lmao
It needs to be much much louder, because everyone knows that if you repeat joke 10+ times it only gets funnier!
The most infuriating thing about the XP overload icon is that now you have to remake your longest possible killfeed line video.
They took it away from killfeed
@@vadnegru Glad they did, it was very confusing to be honest.
@@Mar_Ten also, you don't need that kind of info in the killfeed. The f I care about knowing I got killed by a grinder player?
That icon is so useless. They should just show it in the menu so that you know. Why should anybody care about if you get more or less exp. Literally the most useless kind of icon that was ever in the game.
@@HandsomeMadMax Well it's not entirely useless. You're now able to send someone off to touch some much needed grass with more certainty they lack as such.
The voice loopback was easily the funniest thing i've seen today
The N-word stickers for me

i used it in 2015/2016 all the time, my mic used to always disconnect randomly. I got used to hearing all of my own comms lmao
1:11 glad to see some part of valve that understands silly stuff is allowed in more casual maps/modes.
(I'm still upset they got rid of the vending machines moving in Office. It was never a good strategy, but it was fun)
You can still move them. At least the one in the break room that is.
Once office is off the active duty pool, maybe the will add it back.
Fun for ts only.
@@CRashed693 we all know they wont do that.
whoever gave the idea for that needs a raise. Whoever gave the idea to remodel it to nuke tho needs to be fired.
Absolutely adore how you use music cues in these vids, philip! the 4:22 volume spike whenever that particular track plays is so perffect please don't stop doing that!!
Honestly people telling him it annoyed them has just made him use it more and I'm absolutely here for it
@@andrewb378 yes i don't want my comment to read as sarcastic i genuinely think it's rly unique and attention catching and absurdist :)
@@andrewb378 agreed haha
I feel like it's too loud but it tickles my brain in some caboosing way. Kinda like ASMR i guess lol
GOD😂 that loud ass music made me cackle so much, amazing bit
It's so bizzare as a tf2 player hearing about Counter-strike woes. They sound so familiar but it seems like you have it so much better.
theres a large sense of hope that team fortress 2 lost long ago
I for one would _gladly_ trade a scale back in content for a complete remake. TF2 suffers from way more bloat anyway. It feels like it became a sort of dumping ground for new game ideas that couldn't get enough momentum to develop and release as standalone games, plus Valve's habit of adding every single community map that was ever popular.
Sadly we now have conclusive confirmation that Valve isn't going to do that, because they now have a public beta of a 64-bit port. They've never done that with any other game, and obviously wouldn't be doing it now if there was a complete engine port in development (CSGO never got so much as a DXVK update like their other Source 1 games got).
now that valve is fixing the smoke, they need to add the physical light from a flashbang, meaning throw a flash in a room, have it emit light so that i can splash on the walls including through the doorway that you just threw it from. i feel like that would add so much immersion and cool factor to the game.
i fucking lost it when the aug chameleon came in with the music its a marvellous masterpiece
I personally love arms race and think that it is a genuinely great game mode for newer players. I remember playing it a lot to try out different guns, to warm up and also just because it's fun.
love arms race, it's my favourite.
Arms race was why i got into csgo. Deserves more love
arms race was the only thing I really played in csgo, doesnt require 100 hours to get into
Yeah, I used to only play arms race when I started.
it's good for cooling off when other game modes get frustrating too, it really doesn't feel like anything that happens in Arms Race matters
Considering how Valve embraces the memes I'm surprised they haven't added a Music Kit from Thé à la Menthe (bhop video music), especially because the artist has expressed interest...
sauce?
No bhop?
@@besnicksauce too
ua-cam.com/video/SNvDUO42Hys/v-deo.html&ab_channel=eBATEY
HE'S DOING IT SIDEWAYS
I think the lines in the smoke are the invisible voxel elements that define the smoke effect propagation, so instead of calculating shadows based on the particles we see, it does it (in some cases) only for the voxels, leaving obvious lines everywhere
that's what i thought too
It gets louder every time, I love it
Wait. Shout out to Jericho for getting his record label their own music kit case! This man has been a long time counter strike fan and he deserves it! Love to see it Tucker!
Ps im gonna need the "make u sweat" kit. Its genuinely one of my favorite songs, knock2 is so sick!
Everytime I hear Caboosing in a video, I get another 30 seconds negated from my lifespan and I fucking love it.
The Zeus skin was just just the beginning. We are gonna get grenade skins, bomb skins etc
The bomb probably shouldn't be touched, since camouflaging issues will surely manifest.
@@Furious321yeah, imagine a sand dune C4, it'll be so hard to find
Skin skins (tattoos)
dam youre high@@jorge69696
@@Furious321 We said the same about the CT & T skins. Sure, they fixed most of it, but still we had some problems because of it. I think that, logically, it's inevitable that grenades, C4 and others get skins, but C4 skins are further away than grenades. One way to, maybe, work around that would be to have client side C4 skins, meaning that you see your C4 skin and I see mine. On the other hand, that would 'frustrate' some players that would think "whats the point of having a sick or p2w C4 skin if my foe does not see it?"
All that being said, I agree with you.
The Kilowatt case showing off source 2 handling new material shaders was such a great idea I dont understand why it didnt come with launch
because this update was designed to hold them over for new developments until 2025 all this update says to me is valve only cares about the market aspect of cs2 and the anticheat will never be fixed ,whats the point in owning skins in a game where cheaters are given more new features than the actual legit players
@@techhead-bedhead doomer reply
Those water effects strike me every time I see them, they are easily my favorite part of the update to S2
Can you still not play with your friends? I can never load into a practice game with friends like I used to, is it possible somehow?
Something rotten is such a catchy song. Definetly one of my favorites from audio crime 2
Played 2 matches today. I've felt a NOTICABLE IMPROVEMENT!!! ITS SO MUCH BETTER
Great video! I absolutely love how they made the new baggage map! Being able to start the conveyor belts are such a nice addition! It reminds me of features you would normally find in community servers. One thing I hope they have in the pipeline are achievements :D
Thanks for the video, like always superb music, cutting and informations.
I've been very critical of CS2 since I got access to play it (basically on release as I'd stopped playing as much csgo towards the end of its life). However, I know from a software dev perspective that making releases for every minor update has an overhead - so it was becoming very clear there was a major milestone release coming any time. Looking forward to trying these new changes, especially being able to turn off the damn first person tracers which I absolutely cannot stand.
i LOVE kliksphilip music desing jesus, just on point
that 4:22 moment its a perfect exemple.
2:00 I hope we get much more like the insertion map. I think that is the perfect way of making cs more serious/realistic while still keeping it cs.
I was waiting for this video FOR A DAY!
What you are saying in the final ramblings of the video is exactly how I feel at the moment with cs2's release and the port to source 2.
Great video as always Phil, I've been watching since (like) 2014, and I'll probably keep watching for another 10 years. I really love the content.
hi dark bum :3 pls pay out better
I'm actually so excited by the attention valve is properly giving to its lesser known casual gamemodes, as they were my absolute favorite! Arms race is so fun, especially with the added verticality (and functioning conveyors!) on Baggage. Now, if only they'd add Monastery...
major update=overpriced skins
that tiny update two weeks ago ended up being foreboding of this larger one, huh

Hey! They've finally added back arms race! That was always the only game mode I really ever played in CS:GO, and I was upset it wasn't present at launch in CS2. Only thing I'm upset about is that based on this video it appears they still have it somwhat team-based instead of full FFA for some reason.
The new Baggage looks great as well. I wish devs (and players) of multiplayer games would remember how fun dynamic elements in maps are. The laser focus we have on competitive play has, I feel, made us forget what made these games fun in the first place.
4:22 brilliant music choice :))
Apperantly on the new shoots map there's an in-game clipboard with the layout of Ancient on it, when the update came out I found that in one of the houses to the side of the spawns. Also there was a bug fix in the vent on nuke that fixed something, but now that it's "fixed" you can't fastladder down the vent without getting stuck on the bottom.
You dont even know how excited i am for arms race. Im sad that a lot of people dont care about it
Same, favorite way to warm up
The zeus was rechargeable in Op Hydra too, with its own fun gamemode.
I like how the DeArrow (Extension that removes clickbaity titles and thumbnails) added quotes around "Major" in the title
always been saying when making crafts how cool it would be if i could just free place it somewhere so it perfectly lines up with something on the skin, i can't believe they finally added it
the new update tanked my fps. down to 5 fps. i disabled my microphone and it went to 50-60 fps. unplayable. i dont know whats wrong or what to do please help if you know the solution. had 150-200 fps before the update. it has something to do with the voip but im not good enough with computers to figure it out. please help!
I'm glad there's confirmation that they are adding these gamemodes. Still waiting for Flying Scoutsman. That one was really fun. And I hope Safehouse and Lake will be added as well. Those were my favorite maps.
the background song of yours makes me so nostalgic because i watch you since i was in 8th grade, now I am at university, love your videos!
The peeker's advantage and spraying were definitely the biggest issues with CS2 before, so as of right now I don't really have anything else to complain about. Thank you, Valve.👍
Those new skins and music kits are incredibly sick. This is a great update.
I really missed arms race from when CS2 launched.
Im glad its here finally!
I hope they add more interactive maps. Like you press "use" and you activate some sound, call elevator or ride some small train/cart on some rails
What is interesting is that Valve could have chosen to leave a whole bunch of CS:GO stuff in as a stopgap while they try to update everything. I believe them choosing not to was deliberate and one they didn’t consider lightly. Those two paths likely had an extensive lists of pros and cons.
Ultimately, we’ll see if this was the right move as time passes.
It'll be very interesting to see what they end up doing with Danger Zone, now that the size limits have been thrown wide open. Personally, as much as I was just grateful to have a battle royale game that I could actually run on my potato of a PC when it first came out, I grew to appreciate the smaller, denser scale of it. Both because it kept it from turning into a game of "who can find a sniper and the best attachments for it first", and because it made everything feel more intentionally designed rather than the result of dropping a bunch of random prefab buildings onto a block of terrain.
But then they got rid of singles mode and added _Sonic the Hedgehog_ bounce pads and shit in a desperate bid to salvage it when its popularity tanked, and it became a joke. I honestly wonder what the numbers were like by the end, and if Valve has any real incentive to bring it back at all, let alone revive it in a form that remotely resembles the original experience.
If the game keeps this track I see it being incredible in a year or so. At that point it would've been worth it IMO.
I don't like how Shoots had it's old setting changed to be yet another ancient temple-themed map, plus Luggage looks too much like Nuke IMO.
They might've chose to reuse existing CS2 map themes to save time since they wouldn't need to make any new assets. I agree with you though that it's too bad that they didn't just update and preserve the original style.
Loved ur words at the end, Ill happily wait a month so they can fix bugs and get us our old modes back or one or two maps of arms race and the upcoming modes its gonna be a great time if they keep it up like this^^
Thanks foir the summary! I really hope they add a night/dark main menu background for my poor eyes.
Thank you philip for staying so quirkly brittish. That was the reason why I subscribed to you and your brothers back when you started your first hammer tutorials.
I feel like witnissing this creates a one sided friendship towards you which is sad and nice at the same time.
I wish you the very best.
man i just wish it was it's own release and didn't take over the csgo steam page and removed my like 70% achievement progress
on the bright side, now you have 100% achievement progress!
@@chadkndr it's not special if everyone also has it :(
I had 100% in CS:GO, felt a little pang of pain when it was all removed but it was necessary to get the best CS possible as soon as possible.
@@arog7493 just couldn't they offer the game separately instead of an update?
@@nick_nathas5442 I'm with you man. What they did should be illegal.
I’m very happy about arms race, great way to warmup before a competitive
Your thumbnail is a certified banger
There are a few minor issues. But overall its nice to see them working. Good update 9/10.
Mate, Arms Race is my favourite mode!
I think this is huge for the stickers. Didn’t think they would do such a big step, more stickers will be needed for all those endless crafts
thanks for all your videos!! you are the best
Absolutely agree with your takes at the end of the video. As a TF2 player the incessant whining from the CS community has been, while somewhat understandable, embarrassing and stupid for the most part
8:16 Imagine playing valve games and not being used to valve ignoring you
lmao dude
Great update, hopefully theykll be able to make these more frequently in the coming months. Great coverage!
I started playing when CS2 was out for a couple of months. This update feels like a good thing :)
PHENOMENAL use of Caboosing
I FKIN LOVE CABOOSING I WANT CABOOSING TO PLAY ON MY FUNERAL
CS2 update: 😐
3Kliks video about CS2 update: 🎉😃🥳
nah this update was hype
Hi Philip! Hope you're having a good day, I always get excited your videos
I love arms race “gun game”. I used to main this in 1.6 on the map “Simpsons” something like that. Funny when I look back at 1.6 I don’t remember playing much defuse mode.
Definitely nice to see the game receiving content updates now, but considering Valve is a MULTI-BILLION-DOLLAR corporation, we should have gotten more than what we have so far.
I agree!
redditor level opinion
LAST TIME I CAME THIS EARLY SHE LEFT ME FOR A DUDE WITH AFRO
tough
such a good update, and great video as allways ^^
Great video, but I would love if you had talked about the stickers and their effects a tiny bit longer or do another video about it. I found them astonishing
Valve is a shitty company.
Better than Activision or EA that’s for sure
>Didnt fix anticheat
>didnt give us any of the MM or wingman maps we want
>but they spent the time to fully rebuild shoots even though no one plays it or its gamemodes
thanks valve, you suck
I love the ramps, you can get some crazy boost hop with an MP9 or Dualies
I am so happy, this is such a good update!
Finally my go to warm up
What a clean video, keep up the good content
Finally - another level-headed take on CS2's update that i needed
Arms Race is a very cool game mode, definitely one of my favorites since its CS1.6 and CS Source days. Good to see it back.
I feel like you could have mentioned, that the Nightmode label is run by Jericho, who's also a CS UA-camr
Woah! Shoots is a completely different style. Surprisingly was still able to identify it from my…apparently 60 hours in CS:GO, all spent with bots, mostly on Shoots playing Arms Race.
Also, really am glad Baggage got a lot more movement. But also, yeah, those head height blockers do seem annoying for casual. As I did enjoy standing atop the luggage on one side and sniping bots at the other who took a bit too long too move…probably would be more fun with real players.
CS:GO also had rechargeable Zeus, it could be enabled with "mp_taser_recharge_time".
If I remember correctly, we used to get a gold knife at the end of arms race, but now we get normal one
Ayee they returned the old content I thought it will be gone forever but ty valve for returning it
…that sticker cosmetic customization is soo rare to come w/ an update since I’m used seeing those that came during release. Wow
One thing about the Zeus, the recharge sound can be heard by the enemies too.
Ever since the first time I figured out my audio was bugged(as in it would show voip activity, but either static, or produce no noise at all for other players) in CSGO, I've been setting "voice_loopback 1" during warmup and disabling it once I get in a game and confirm my audio is working correctly. Restarting the game would usually fix the microphone issue, although at some point I had found a command that kind of re-detected all audio devices and would fix the issue without restarting the game.
OMG Amazing update woohoo ❤
Love from Auckland, New Zealand 🇳🇿 ❤
Baggage reminds me of the original modern warfare 2 "terminal" map. Could be a great map for competitive if they copy that layout.
god that was a deafening caboosing, thank you philip
Cool, I've been waiting for more games modes, so seeing Arms Race back is nice. Only two maps for it, but it's a start. I will forever miss the casual community servers though, like how I always saw one that was 24/7 Office that was fun to mess around in. Seems like the only community servers around in CS2 are ones by websites, mostly sweaty competitive servers, and random surf/retake servers.
arms race is the only thing other than surfing I did in cs:go and it would continue to be the same in cs2. I am a fan of these changes
They should make the raised side walls on shoots surfable to add to the casual appeal
performance over everything.. it's the most important!
The moment kaboosing hits is what im here for every video
Good for you guys, we tf2 guys haven't got anything seen 2016 or 17 i don't really remember.
The stickers positions... what a way to light the craziness fire that we all have
Love how it makes you stutter every time you envounter an enemy
That means DangerZone and Flying Scoutsman is coming back soon, maybe in this summer.
The new conveyor belt controls remind me of the interactive elements in some of the maps they added in last fall's _Half-Life_ update. I wonder if some of the same people were involved.
