Counter-Strike 2 Update Tweaks Train and Fixes Animations

Counter-Strike 2 adjusts Train layout details, fixes weapon inspection regressions, and updates Steam recording timelines.

Valve released a maintenance patch for Counter-Strike 2 focused on map fixes for Train, weapon handling corrections, and recording tools.

Train Layout Adjustments

Train receives several geometry adjustments. Developers fixed minor visual bugs and gaps, added dirt and wetness to crates and tarps, widened the opening on A site between Hell and Tunnels, and opened a container door near Ivy. A dumpster was added by Ivy, barrels were placed in the A site cubby, T spawns were pushed back slightly, and ragdoll velocity limits were adjusted.

Weapon Inspection and Interface Fixes

Deploying weapons now permits immediate inspection, resolving a previous regression. A fix prevents fingers from clipping into butterfly knife geometry during animations. Weekly care package previews now include a close button for weapon cases, and moving away from annotation nodes keeps required grenades in inventory. The patch also introduces match markup for the Steam Game Recording timeline.

Why this patch matters

A targeted maintenance update that cleans up visual anomalies on Train and restores immediate weapon inspection handling.
