Hooxi calls for nerf to Counter-Strike 2\u2019s new smoke feature: \u201cI am not a fan\u201d ValveCounter-Strike 2 has been in limited beta testing for only a few days and some pros already have some thoughts on what should be changed, like G2 IGL Rasmus \u2018HooXi\u2019 Nielsen who has called for a nerf to the game\u2019s new smoke feature. Counter-Strike 2 has introduced revamped smoke grenades to the FPS genre as Valve has now made them volumetric, as well as interactable with bullets and grenades. With only a few games in the game\u2019s limited beta period, G2 IGL HooXi is already calling for a nerf, and changes in general, to the new mechanic. In a Twitlonger about his thoughts on the new game, the veteran CS:GO pro ranked the game in a number of categories, map design, sound, and utility. For utility, the pro specifically mentioned smoke grenades and said that the change is \u201ca bit too much.\u201d \u201cIt will change the way CS is played forever and you have to be very careful when changing fundamental parts of CS that have been there since the beginning,\u201d HooXi said. \u201cI am not a fan and I hope they come up with something else or just remove this completely and this is not just me being your typical CS player that hates change I put a lot of thought into it, I tried and I am coming to the same conclusion over and over.\u201d Counter-Strike 2 smoke changes might be a little controversial HooXi explains that he likes the idea of carving out windows of vision with gunfire, and that it is a good way to remove one-way smokes and other smoke-related bugs from CS:GO, but that the mechanic makes the smoke disappear too quickly. He says it takes \u201c3-4 seconds\u201d to clear the new smokes. While HooXi had problems with smokes in Counter-Strike 2, he overall liked the new game and the other updates. He gave the new title, which is still in its beta period, an overall 8\/10. Keep up to date with Dexerto\u2019s coverage of Counter-Strike 2.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
