Valve have put in a boost in Alley as well in mid for the T\u2019s giving the map a bit more flexibility for players to try out. Similarly, they also \u201ctrimmed excessive areas\u201d which hopefully means there won\u2019t be as much empty map anymore. The devs have also rerouted Alley from A main to mid. This change is one in a few fixes that will improve the \u201cflow\u201d of the map to improve the gameplay experience. Workout is getting touch ups While Workout\u2019s changes won\u2019t be as extensive, the devs are cleaning up the map to make it easier to operate. A \u201crogue spawn point\u201d on the map has been deleted, and the devs have also \u201cfixed boosting into the hole in Kids Zone.\u201d The court area of the map had its shadows tweaked, while the shower area is going to be slightly more illuminated after the update. Game changing queue feature Valve have added a new \u201clooking to play\u201d option that will look to make queuing up with people much more streamlined. Simply click on the new button and \u201cyou\u2019ll be added to a list of players who are ready to team up.\u201d The feature will work both ways too, as teams who are missing a few players for a full squad will be able to pick players in the \u201clooking to play\u201d list and quickly add them to their game. Danger Zone will make it easier to track you down The CS:GO battle royale mode is getting a plethora of changes with the next update. A new change is going to give dropped shields from death a slight delay before they\u2019re able to be automatically picked up by another player.
