Counter-Strike: Global Offensive/Limitations

This article or section should be converted to third person to conform to wiki standards.

Player Movement

• Grenades may uphold airborne players. As seen here.

• Crouching is tied to tickrate shown here.

• Jump+crouch will often result in a huge frame drop.

• Players can get stuck on <90° corners. They should not be hugging the wall. Maybe it's caused by the game miscalculating collisions.

• Players can get stuck (stopped when in mid-air; sometimes they can even "hang" when holding movement and angles) on diagonal walls whose area is parallel to the z-axis (and not parallel to the x- or y-axis). If the wall is sloped just a tiny bit (no longer parallel to z-axis), this is no longer an issue.

Gameplay

• The weaponmodel sometimes doesn't change with gui if the weapon is switched at start of round.

• It's no longer possible to join nearby public lobbies with offline status.

• Spectator's view occasionally appear that the other players are crouched when they aren't.

• Enemies are shown on radar when starting server with the "-nobots" command line option.

• Demos recorded using tv_autorecord 1 command are crashing game client.

• sv_disable_motd is hidden cvar, it must be changed with sourcemod.

• When playing with a bot: You tag enemy, die and take control of the bot. The bot is awarded with an assist when the enemy is killed.

• Chickens do block bullets and view, possibly hindering gameplay in rare cases.

• sv_grenade_trajectory only works for the server host.

UI

• Overview bombsite icons align to the brush center rather than the overview txt.
• Some HUD elements lose alpha between matches and may be retrieved by pressing Esc or the chat button.
• Pressing G to hide players on HUD while spectating significantly lowers fps.
• Language setting via Steam doesn't affect language.
• Steam username with ' is shown as "'" in the chat in-game.
• Votebox sometimes freezes.

Entities

• env_fires often don't appear in-game, hindering gameplay in some areas. Example: Car on A long on the old Dust II.

• Can't press buttons through clip brushes.

• trigger_bomb_reset will reset the C4 while the player is in the trigger, but puts it floating on top of the trigger as the player moves away.

• func_precipitation doesn't work in instances.

• Can't activate infodecal.

• Disabling prop_dynamic doesn't disable the hitbox/collision.

• func_door and func_movelinear (probably more entities) don't do any damage to the blocking player (with enabled force block damage) if they passed through some trigger_teleport to the destination by using noclip, blocking damage works again for that player if they pass through any teleport by themself without noclip.

• Item item_assaultsuit fell out of level at *,*,* in console regardless of presence.

• Hard falloff and maximum distance of light doesn't work.

Level Design

• The workshop publisher cuts off the map description when updating.

• The workshop publisher does not include /resource/overview/<map name>_higher_radar.dds or /resource/overview/<map name>_lower_radar.dds when packing the map. These files must be packed manually, using VIDE or another packing tool.

• No way to have decals on unsolid brushes.

• Brushes made while a vertex-complex brush is selected won't align vertexes to grid.

• If a displacement is cut after being created it won't noise on Z.

Sound

• Sounds played with ambient_generic play fully at the position that they were started at. They can't move.
