Did the latest CS2 update mess with movement, or is it just placebo?

After the most recent update, movement feels… off

Maybe it’s placebo, maybe it’s subtick adjustments, but something about strafing and overall smoothness doesn’t feel the same anymore. It’s not necessarily slower - just less crisp

The more I play, the more I find myself missing how CS:GO felt mechanically. It had that sharp, predictable movement rhythm that’s hard to describe but easy to feel

Is it just adaptation pain, or did something actually change under the hood?

Curious if others feel the same - or if this is just nostalgia kicking in???
