Valve’s latest update for Counter-Strike 2 has removed commands that were once believed to solve choppy gameplay. These commands, “cl_interp_ratio” and “cl_interp,” were thought to be the solution for lag spikes and input errors in the game. However, Valve has stated that these commands never actually had any effect in CS2 and have been removed from the game.
The September update for CS2 focused on fixing map bugs and UI features. Unexpectedly, it also removed the aforementioned commands. Despite their removal, players are reporting that the movement in CS2 now feels amazing, suggesting that the update may have resolved the issues.
Valve also addressed various bugs in the mid-September update, including audio, map, UI, and gameplay bugs. They also made adjustments to CS2’s lag compensation to address poor hit registration and disadvantages for players with higher ping.
However, one issue that Valve has yet to fix is a problem with the leaderboard. The new standings in CS2 have revealed some of the worst cheaters in the scene, with players achieving perfect win rates suspiciously quickly. It is expected that Valve will find a solution to this cheating problem soon.
Overall, the latest update for CS2 has removed commands that were believed to fix lag issues, but players are reporting improved movement. Valve has also addressed various bugs, but the leaderboard issue remains unresolved.
