Compared to almost every other FPS it already had relatively high stakes.

On one hand, I think this does raise the stakes — on the other I recognize that everyone that's ever climbed the ladder knows that reloading unecessarily will get you killed. This, to me, seems more like a change intended for casual players who never got the lesson.

That would just result in buying more ammunition every round, right? You won't run out mid round, right? I have not played CS in about 100 billion years.

You don't buy ammo in CS2. When you buy the gun it comes with a set amount of ammo and that's what you get. It's not like the older CSs.

You don't buy ammo anymore. You buy a weapon and it has a predefined number of ammunition.

Battlefield used to do this little bit of reality.

Seems like a weird big change to make in what is supposed to be an e-sport, but then again this is a game that deleted the game you fucking bought and replaced it with a sequel.

It's been a great update in my opinion, I really love it so far, it creates more skill in the game if that makes sense. No more cod reloads, more crazy last bullet clutches, it's been fun.
