14 DAY TRIAL // Counter-Strike: Global Offensive has just received a brand new update from developers Valve and Hidden Path Entertainment, tweaking quite a few different things, like the prices of the Weapon Case Key and the Payback Pass, but also changing some secondary aspects, like the behavior of the chickens on certain maps.
Counter-Strike: Global Offensive came out almost a year ago and, since then, it's delivered a great experience that got a lot of old-school fans back into the Counter-Strike experience by not only modifying certain aspects but also by embracing the modding community.
Now, in order to keep the experience as fair and balanced as possible, a new patch has been deployed for Global Offensive that tweaks a variety of things while solving different bugs.
