Counter-Strike 2 has a system that penalizes players who reload their weapons before they've fired all their rounds.
A new update for CS2 has changed the reload system so that players lose all their ammo if they reload prematurely.
It's a change that Valve says should make for more suspense and more thoughtful gameplay.
However, a good portion of players disagree and are asking for things to stay the same, or for this change to be reversed. Many are emphasizing that changing the reload system is something no one asked for, while there are numerous things Valve should focus on, such as solving the problem with cheaters.
