On Aug. 22, Valve added another Counter-Strike 2 update, which was the fourth one in a span of four days. The latest patch addresses only one minor bug, but the players are still surprised by developer’s recent efforts.
The CS2 patch notes quickly made it to Reddit, where the community praised Valve for its latest work. Obviously, players didn’t shy away from making a few jokes here and there, but the overall sentiment is that fans are proud of the developer, and wish they’d keep up the pace of updates indefinitely.
“They’re so locked in right now,” one of the players wrote. “They’re gonna burn out if they keep working like this,” another joked. “It’s actually exciting to see that CS2 turning blue on my steam library this often again, no matter what the update is,” another pointed out.

The first patch for CS2 this week was launched on Aug. 19 and tweaked players’ ability to use keybinds, which amounts to a major gameplay update. In the next three days, three patches followed, with the Aug. 21 patch taking nine maps under its scope.
In the latest update itself, Valve didn’t add much. It merely fixed a bug where radar background and radar icons were misaligned, which occasionally confused players and led them to their deaths.
Last Sunday marked the end of IEM Cologne 2024, so its possible the developer waited for the event to unfold before patching the game. With the second Major this year on the horizon, since Perfect World Shanghai Major begins in November, Valve might have more minor updates in its sights.
