#1 CS:GO update for 6/12/18 (1.36.3.8) in CS2 General Discussion

Via the CS:GO blog:

Valve[GAMEPLAY]
– Reduced base damage of the CZ75a from 33 to 31 (a single shot is no longer lethal against a helmeted opponent).
– Increased reserve ammo for the M4A1-S from 40 to 60, to provide some additional utility without impacting brief engagements.
– Reduced price of the MP7 from $1700 to $1500.

[MISC]

– Other minor bug fixes and improvements

Rumor has it:

- /u/Ulmali put together an imgur album of today's Mirage changes, and also noticed that the skybox was opened to allow for throwing smokes between bombsites

- Looks like Valve's aware that we know that Panorama will be Happening® sooner rather than later in CS:GO and is waving a white surrender flag, as not only have numerous leaked strings from the Steam Translation Server made it into csgo_english, there is now also a new directory in the game's VPK structure containing all the map thumbnails in both 1080p and 360p resolution, under "/materials/panorama/images/map_icons/screenshots/"
- Some of you might be asking "wait, what's this Panorama thing everyone's talking about and so excited for?". Panorama is a UI framework developed in-house by Valve, which borrows concepts from both CSS and HTML. CS:GO currently uses Scaleform (another UI framework, developed by Autodesk), while both Steam's Big Picture Mode and Dota 2 use Panorama. Panorama is expected to bring many little quality of life improvements like eliminating microstutter between menus. You can read all about Panorama on the Valve Developer Wiki
