With a new Counter-Strike 2 update finally arriving on live servers, and following complaints from many players, including the legendary Patrik “f0rest” Lindberg, Valve has disabled all dev console commands in official matches, including the command that enables wall-hacks.
Players with access to limited testing of CS2 learned this week that typing the command “cl_physics_highlight_active 5” on the game console enables wallhacks for the game (wall seeing trick), and although you can only play unranked matches initially, some of the player base is abusing this bug. (As you can see in the clip) This will no longer be possible thanks to the patch released yesterday.

In addition to disabling development console commands, Valve also took into account the wishes of its players and added the so-called "review cancel" feature to Counter Strike 2. This little feature in CS:GO allows players to more accurately examine blade skins. In addition to a few visual fixes, the developers also fixed some reported bugs such as a bug that caused Grenades to affect smoke grenades through walls.
Here are the full notes for CS2's March 30 update.
