Earlier today Valve released a small update for CS:GO which was specifically aimed at solving the ‘Grenade Impact Damage Bug’ which had been introduced to the game after the previous update that was released on 28^th May.

This weird bug which caused players to take heavy damage anywhere between 15-20 points of health along with 18-20 points of damage to the armour when they came in contact with a grenade thrown by the enemy, has now been patched by the developers.

According to popular CS:GO Twitter personality ‘Haci’, the bug made a grenade bounce anywhere between 15-20 times within a second when it came in contact with a player model, dealing heavy damage to the players. This problem was most noticeable with a smoke grenade, as both HE and Incendiary grenades already inflict damage to a player.

Also, Haci wasn’t the only one who observed this bug as earlier a clip showcasing a player on Mirage take damage from a smoke grenade also went viral.

Valve has responded really quickly to this problem, patching out the bug within 3 days of the bug initially being reported. Although the bug did not have the potential to be game-breaking, it could have been severely irritating if the outcome of a game was impacted by it.
