CS:GO Hitbox and Nuke Changes Go Live in New Patch Along With Updated Bomb Logic \u2013 Release Notes for May 21st A new CS:GO update has gone live which implements the hitbox and changes introduced in a recent beta patch as well as some new changes for defusing bombs. A Counter-Strike: Global Offensive update was added to the beta depot on May 18th which brought a solution to some of the problems experienced where shooting players in the back of the head wouldn\u2019t register as headshots. The change added a new hitbox to the back of the neck which would make things more predictable and, after positive community feedback, it has now been added to the game on a permanent basis. Other changes from the pre-release, such as the adjustments to ambient sounds and the various tweaks to Nuke and Overpass, have also been fully implemented in the May 21st patch along with some all-new tweaks to way that bombs work.
