I'm sure by now you're aware of the jump bug that exists in CS:GO.
Pretty much everybody is.
Jumping whilst crouched and quickly letting go of the crouch button lets you see as though
you were standing, whilst remaining hidden from enemies since your animation still shows
you as crouched.
It's obvious that this isn't a feature, but a bug.
And one that needs fixing ASAP valve pls fix.
And I'm sure they will, much like they did with the landing bug animation glitch from
a few years ago which was quite similar in terms of how it worked.
It's unfortunate that the discovery of this bug had to be during a major.
Valve may not get around to fixing it until after it ends, which I would agree with since
it's bad sport to change the gameplay midway through such a major event.
Even if the changes are with good intentions in mind.
Let's face it: CS:GO has had years of polish and this bug has only shown itself now.
I hold the belief that it's a lot better for everybody to know about a bug like this,
than it is for it to be known by a few who remain quiet about it whilst abusing it themselves.
Who knows how long this has been abused for?
I'm sure the witch hunts have already started.
Old matches will be rewatched and scanned for cases of this exploit in action.
Most likely for cases that caused their favourite teams to lose crucial rounds and so on.
It could get messy.
Which begs the question: what should be done about it until it's fixed?
A few of the teams have tried to reach a gentleman's agreement where they agree not to use it,
though it didn't turn out too well since it- or at least similar behaviour- was still
used.
But I don't blame him.
He might have been abusing it to see higher, he might not have.
As pointed out on Reddit, he might have been doing it to keep his jumping silent.
I don't think it matters.
It's just too difficult to judge every case of this happening and because of that I think
the bug should be allowed until the official fix it rolled out.
Because otherwise, you're not just asking players to stop abusing it.
You're expecting them to avoid any sort of suspicious behaviour that could even be
remotely seen as abusing it.
They have to keep this new rule in the backs of their minds when they're playing to actively
avoid any learned behaviour they might have.
Any jumping habits they've picked up over the thousands of hours that they've played
this game, which they might not even be actively aware of as giving them an advantage.
That's a pretty big last-minute gameplay change that you're asking players to adhere
to and one that works against their ultimate goal of winning.
It's not like you have to install hacks or to coordinate elaborate strategies with
teammates to execute this bug- it's just a simple combination of controls that anyone
can do, at any time.
As a player in the major I'd certainly feel as though I was under enough pressure already
without having to hastily change the way I handle -literally- the core gameplay, last-minute.
Like I said I think it's bad sport to change the rules mid-way through a tournament.
Regardless, I think the bug should be frowned upon but still used and abused for the remainder
of this tournament.
It's not fair to expect players to change their behaviour and to have every jump, innocent
or not, contested and debated.
And the event's organiser, PGL, has spoken.
They will allow the jump bug.
No doubt many people won't be happy, but that should be the end of it.
Besides, the alternative would be a lot more complicated.
Forcing players to adhere to an artificially enforced disadvantage works against their
ultimate goal of winning and sets a dangerous precedent.
What about cases where a player pulls a successful bunny hop and arrives somewhere before they
should have?
What about overpowered weapons or currently undiscovered Molotov smoke glitches?
I really think that CS:GO's gameplay should be left to govern itself, with Valve patching
the bits that are discovered to be overpowered or faulty.
Such decisions shouldn't be left to players or to the fans watching.
But hey, that's just my opinion, I am sure that many of you will disagree with this.
Especially when your favourite team loses a round because of it.
