VALVE TILFØJER COMMUNITY-MAPS TIL CS2

Så skete det langt om længe.

For første gang siden CS2's udgivelse i september sidste år tilføjer Valve nu community-maps direkte til spillet.

Med nattens opdatering er i alt fem maps blevet tilføjet, fordelt på competitive, casual og deathmatch samt wingman og arms race.

Til competitive, casual og deathmatch har Valve tilføjet de to maps Thera og Mills, hvor scenen er sat i henholdsvis et græsk-inspireret bylandskab samt en hollandsk-udseende mindre by med kanaler, vindmøller og tulipanmarker i horisonten.

Thera, der i 1.6 hed de_santorini, er desuden designet af FMPONE, som også står bag blandt andet Cache.

Det nye competitive-map, Thera.

Desuden kan man nu også spille wingman på de to community-maps Memento og Assembly. Førstnævnte er sat i et idyllisk, italiensk-inspireret bryllup, mens Assembly tager udgangspunkt i en flyhangar.

Der mangler ikke idyl på det nye wingman-map, Memento.

Klassiker med easter egg

Sidst men ikke mindst er det tid til en vaskeægte klassiker.

Arms race kan nemlig nu spilles på det legendariske fy_poolday, som i den opdaterede udgave blot hedder Pool Day.

Og der er sågar tilføjet et lille easter-egg på mappet. Åbner man det ene af skabene ved den lille pool, så kommer der nemlig et håndtag frem.

Hvis man trækker i det, så bliver skærmen hvid, og den gamle fy_poolday fra 1.6 kommer frem.

Det er skabet i hjørnet, hvor man først skal åbne det og derefter trykke 'e' ved håndtaget.

Foruden en lang række ændringer i småtingsafdelingen, så har Valve desuden også givet MVP-grafikken, der vises efter hver runde, en overhaling, og så har ændret competitive matchmaking til at tildele dig en rank efter blot to sejre. Tidligere skulle der 10 sejre til..

VIDEO SETTINGS

Settings Recommendations

Added a Settings Recommendation popup if your display's refresh rate is set below its maximum at startup. Using your display's highest refresh rate > is generally recommended.

Added a Settings Recommendation popup if NVIDIA G-Sync support is detected but not enabled at startup. Using G-Sync is generally recommended if your system supports it.

Added a Settings Recommendation popup if NVIDIA G-Sync is enabled but not V-Sync and/or NVIDIA Reflex. It is generally recommended to enable all three settings together when they are available. Note that applying these settings will limit your frame rate to your display's refresh rate or slightly lower, which is usually the smoothest-looking and lowest input latency settings combination. See https://help.steampowered.com/en/faqs/view/418E-7A04-B0DA-9032 for technical details.

Removed "Main Menu Background Scenery" and "Item Inspect Background Scenery" settings from the Video Settings page. These settings are still available on the Main Menu and in the Item Inspect screens respectively.

The "Refresh Rate" setting now shows your display's current refresh rate in Windowed and Fullscreen Windowed modes.

Removed the "Laptop Power Savings" setting which has never actually been configurable in CS2.

Added a "Frame Pacing" section to the Advanced Video settings page.

Added an "NVIDIA G-Sync" row to the Frame Pacing section which tells you whether or not G-Sync is active with your current display settings. This row may be hidden if you're using the Vulkan renderer or if you're not using an NVIDIA graphics card.

Added "Maximum FPS In Game" and "Maximum FPS In Menus" sliders to the Frame Pacing section. These control the fps_max and fps_max_ui convars respectively.

Increased the default "Maximum FPS In Menus" setting from 120 FPS to 200 FPS.

The Advanced Video visual preview now uses the "In Game" maximum FPS instead of the "In Menus" maximum.
