6:41 Valve did the exact same thing to Portal 2, 12 years ago, with the light panels. It's basically an image that moves according to the camera position, to look like it's a 3D object, and this optimizes the game a lot.

[@joel5451]

Saw everything as a great improvement! My onlyyyyy small itch is with the Bomb detonation in CS2, visually the explosion looks nice, but it doesn't feel as destructive as csgo where there's a ton of black smoke, the terrain and camera shakes. If they could add some more to it, or even have assets break or move with the explosion, it'd be amazing. But everything else was very stellar, a well needed improvement to visuals and added game features/mechanics!

It's always amazing to me as an old beta-1.5 player how smokes are used so competitively now - it's good to see. Back in my day they were so utterly useless and hopeless that they were never used; they were only ever bought to decoy a flash (post-Heaton/Element incident), by accident or as a joke. Breaking through choke points was far more difficult back then without the cover of smokes.

[@Cdrsan]

4:15 as someone who has done unity shader dev stuff, this is pretty damn cool. I think the smoke is volumetric and not just a texture, but getting it to block out the sun is cool. I'm also curious if it adds to the shadow map to cast shadows. I'd imagine that would be quite a performance hit though, maybe not if someone smart made it lol. These effects with smoke are really "easy" with raytracing rendering but not so much with rasterization.

[@makandalp]

As someone who never developed shader type stuff, i could instantly tell that this is volumetric. The same physics is applied in, for example, red dead 2. For the clouds.

I kinda dislike that the dead bodies and the burnt ground disappear soon after appearing in CS2. They should stay there permanently until the end of the round like destroyed doors and windows.
