[ GAMEPLAY ]
[list]
[*]The visual and audio feedback from sub-tick input—such as movement acceleration and muzzle flashes—will now always render on the next frame
[*]Random numbers used for shooting spread are now synchronized between clients and servers by default. This makes tracers and decals match their server-authoritative trajectories more closely. Note: Spread has been synchronized on Valve official servers since 10/14
[*]Fixed a bug where pressing a movement key immediately after jumping resulted in an inconsistent jump height
[/list]
[ MATCHMAKING ]

[*]Changed jump land sounds to have the same maximum audible distance as footstep sounds
[*]Changed volume falloff curve of jump landing sounds to better convey distance
[*]Improved molotov extinguish effects to sound better when multiple are playing at once
[*]Brought back spark sound feedback when bomb defuse is cut short due to player spinning
