Counter-Strike: Global Offensive's latest patch will be great for players who play the competitive shooter via Steam Deck. The September 7 patch added several tweaks to four maps while improving existing features.

Playing with a mouse and keyboard on Steam Deck is now better because of the enhanced Steam Input support. The developer improved the startup I/O, leading

to reduced game launch time. The game won’t show incorrect inventory limit warnings anymore, especially when the user has multiple items in Storage Units.

MISC
  • Improved user interface flow when cycling through weapon case items in Agent View (thanks, @AquaIsMissing and @_ale_cs).
  • Fixed an exploit that would allow the player’s camera to become detached from their eye position.
MAPS
Anubis
  • Added a hip cover on the plateau near B main.
  • Clipped the large stone cover on CT mid for smoother movement.
