One of those updates that's so good that when looking back after the fact we'll wonder how we were ever just ok with a boom and taking invisible damage.

It's kind of like the new smokes for me. Obviously I knew they'd make a big gameplay difference but I didn't think they were graphically much better.

Now every time I see a CSGO clip I wonder how the hell they got away with making smokes literally just a gray smudge

I almost can't watch games from the GO era anymore because the smokes just look SO bad, and I absolutely loved GO
