Will CS2 be an update or a new game?

[Fuzzy]

I’m really confused with Counter-Strike 2. Is it a Source 2 update for CS:GO, or is it a standalone Source 2 remake of CS:GO?

It'll be a free update to current CS:GO

From what i can tell reading the website and blog on csgos official website, it is a new game.

All skins will be transferred over.

I hope not, would suck if we can't play CS:GO but only CS2

Another Counter-Strike to clutter an already cluttered library.

It is replacing CS:GO in your library. So, nothing is getting cluttered.

It isn't out yet. Not until later during Summer.

It is still in the Limited Test phase.

a few things that HAVE changed-
1)smokes are bigger and slower to grow and easier to remove- for a little few seconds, such as with a well placed hand grenade. A Negev or some other rapid fire weapon will also put holes in the smoke that from the inside of the smoke the player maybe able to spot enemies but the enemies should find it hard to see inside the smokes.
2)Hand grenades that remove smoke isn't permanent, the smoke grows back with a little delay.
3)i haven't tried throwing a molly in a smoke yet, so don't ask me yet.

4)harmless bots make it easy to run around trying different smoke spots and markings without going into workshop etc. as harmless bots don't shoot or knife u.

5)less one way smokes such as on top of short stairs where T's can spot CT's at a site but ct's cant see t's..In cs2 these smokes are blinding both directions.

6)could be my mouse sens but seems smoother to run jump and aim.

7)could be my imagination but headshot hit spot seems bigger.

8)Hard bots seem to be the best to play with practising strats as expert bots usually strafe much wider and counter strafe a lot more than the average player or even more than the average gold or higher players or so it seems to me...However bots just stand still though when reloading or get confused if spotting another enemy, instead of killing you first.

9)scout jump shots don't register any more

10)grenades and possibly flashbangs concuss anyone nearby for about 6-8 seconds.

more to come..



ps- something seems different like running speed im not real sure yet.


pps-i did not download this i got invite months ago but ive been travelling.

There'd be a separate steam page by now if it was supposed to be a different game

This is the only thing that makes me sad, all the other changes seem really good.

Yeah i asked valve if they could bring it back but didnt get a response as i expected as im not simple,or anywhere near that kind of level... but i did say guys like "Scouter cs" have spent over 15 000 hours perfecting scouting and scout jump shots surely we can still have them in the new game?....i have hope.
