Fixed a case where players could refund a grenade for a brief period after it was thrown.”
The Counter-Strike 2 bug would allow players to deploy grenades and refund within a short period. It is unclear whether the grenade could be refunded after it exploded. But even throwing and immediately refunding it is enough of an exploitative move to create a major diversion in the match. However, that is all in the update; it only consisted of a single line but dealt with a potentially significant bug.

Counter-Strike 2 came out to a mixed response on September 27, 2023, for Windows and Linux. But hearsay of a mobile release has also persisted since its launch. eXputer’s Asad Ahmed has reviewed the addictive FPS with a medium score of 3.5/5, calling it “a game that undermines Valve’s reputation.” Despite its modern features and improvements, a bundle of bugs and missing features have caused many players to shun it completely.
