How has Source 2 changed Mirage?

[@quinnjooss7770]

I hope whoever did the cube-maps in palace watches this and gets to see someone truly appreciate their work.

[@IdentifiantE.S]

What a work that’s insane ! 😄

[@thedefault8109]

In the words of a cs youtuber, "the floor is as glicery as a crispy cream donut"

[@-abbie]

Not to dismiss those cubemaps or anything since I agree they are a clever idea, but they are actually not new to the CS2 version of Mirage. CSGO's Mirage has had the same cubemaps in palace for a while, but I don't blame anyone for not noticing in CSGO since the floor is hardly reflective in comparison to CS2. The only reason I even know is because I happened to notice the reflection in the scope of the AWP changing when I was walking between the pillars one day a few years ago.

Mr. Phillip, a while back I noticed this error in Mirage. In the kitchen, in a corner of the ceiling, there was a hole in reality that hasn't been fixed for quite a while. I don't see any mentions of this bug in this video, has it been fixed in the new version?

[@Ground91]

Thanks for the reminder, but we have to ask Phil if the hole in kitchen at mirage is still there just in case!

[@frankmills1917]

I wonder if that's been fixed too. Weird that Philip forgot to mention it.

He does, but he has bigger problems like pointing out the hole in mirage's kitchen, someone should tell him about it

There's nothing really new about that, everyone "knows" the solution. They generally just can't be bothered to do it, especially in fast multiplayer games (because most players don't really care).

[@stevethepocket]

The lighting change feels a lot more natural here than in Dust2. Maybe it's just down to differences in materials used, but I'm hoping it's because they've been listening to feedback and refining their lighting/compile settings. Also, I eagerly await your series of videos where you dig into the new map editor (I feel like you must have done this already when _Alyx_ came out, but I don't recall seeing one) and explain all the engine changes that it lays bare.

People complain about the maps being too bright but I think it has something to do with the skybox The general vibe of a map can change because of the skybox. No wonder cs2 maps feel “less serious” when the sky looks like something from a romcom anime, all bright and happy, and a very saturated shade of blue.

Introduction: Upon exploring the intricacies of the Mirage map in the renowned first-person shooter game, Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, a most peculiar and visually striking discovery came to light. With a keen eye for detail, I happened upon a disconcerting sight within the confines of the kitchen area-a noticeable breach in the ceiling structure, exhibiting all the characteristics of a hole. Such an unexpected architectural anomaly could undoubtedly elicit intrigue and speculation regarding its origins, purpose, and, most importantly, its current state. Thus, the ensuing discourse endeavors to ascertain whether the aforementioned hole in the Mirage kitchen has been rectified or, perchance, still persists. Body: The hole in question within the Mirage kitchen, an environment teeming with digital realism and tactical opportunities, initially evokes a sense of mystery. Its presence beckons a multitude of questions-has it been addressed by the developers? Does it serve any purpose within the game's design? To delve into the matter, a meticulous examination of the game's most recent updates and patch notes is necessary. Alas, due to the limitations imposed by my current knowledge cutoff in September 2021, I am unable to provide a definitive answer regarding the hole's status. However, it is worth noting that developers often strive to enhance and refine their game's maps, rectifying such visual discrepancies and ensuring an immersive experience for players. Considering the dynamic nature of video game development, it is plausible that the creators of Counter-Strike: Global Offensive have indeed addressed the issue at hand. Patches and updates, commonplace in the gaming realm, serve as vessels for bug fixes and improvements, ensuring a polished and balanced gameplay experience. In this regard, it would not be far-fetched to assume that the vigilant developers behind the Mirage map have rectified the kitchen hole, preserving the integrity of the game's aesthetics and overall functionality. However, to obtain the most accurate and up-to-date information, it is advisable to consult official sources, forums, or the latest news pertaining to the state of the Mirage map in Counter-Strike: Global Offensive. Conclusion: The elusive hole that was detected within the Mirage kitchen in Counter-Strike: Global Offensive captivates the imagination of players and onlookers alike, provoking curiosity and speculation. While I cannot provide an unequivocal answer regarding the hole's current status, it is prudent to recognize the commitment of game developers to address and rectify such visual discrepancies through regular updates and patches. The dynamic nature of video game development suggests that the creators of Counter-Strike: Global Offensive may have already rectified the issue, ensuring a seamless and immersive experience for players navigating the Mirage map. To glean accurate information and confirm the status of the kitchen hole, one should consult authoritative sources or stay abreast of the latest news and announcements in the gaming community. Has it been fixed yet?
