Counter-Strike 2 update adjusts kick rules and reload issues

A September 24 Counter-Strike 2 update revises the loading-screen rules description and changes how team-damage kick decisions are made. It also fixes silent-reload cases that could speed reloads or shotgun firing.

  • The loading screen has a clearer description of the rules.

  • The criteria used to kick players for team damage have been adjusted.

  • A reload-input case that allowed slightly faster silent reloads has been fixed.

  • A silent-reload case that could increase shotgun firing speed has been fixed.
