Counter-Strike 2 shortens Retakes downtime
A Counter-Strike 2 update changes Retakes so eligible bomb defusals end immediately and reduces time between rounds. It also adds a freeze-time interaction for pet chickens.
In Retakes, a bomb defusal ends at once when enough round time remains and no active utility can still stop it.
Retakes has shorter freeze periods and less delay before a new round begins.
Players can ping pet chickens during freeze time to ask them to perform a trick.
