freakazoid and valens have shared insider information about upcoming changes in cs2. The former pro player and coach discussed potential updates with Valve developers, including the possible launch of 128 tick rate servers.

Valve is reportedly aware of issues with the current sub-tick system and is working on improvements. While the exact nature of these changes remains unconfirmed, they could involve animation updates or a transition to 128 tick servers. The information comes from conversations with valens, who recently visited Valve’s office.

The CS2 community has long advocated for this update, expressing mixed feelings about the current sub-tick system. If implemented, 128 tick servers would significantly improve gameplay smoothness and responsiveness.

“They know that sub-tick is not working perfectly right now. Changes will come – maybe it’s animation updates or a switch to 128 tick,” valens said.
