What Is the CS2 Boost Bug?

Understanding the Ragdoll Collision Connection to Boosted Inaccuracy

Popular Counter-Strike community figure, Poggu took to X, sharing his interesting discovery into the boost-bug which has rendered boosts useless due to a weird shooting inaccuracy.

It was established that this was caused by ragdolls. Poggu revealed in a recent X post that when Valve turned off ragdoll collision a client-server status check that would have timed out the parameter and reset collision for that player’s ID in the next round is miraculously missing. If this is the case then a simple update would suffice.

“By running “cl_player_ragdolls_collide 1” (sv_cheats required) it will completely fix the boost bug, but also enable collisions between ragdolls. This bug pretty much got introduced whenever Valve disabled ragdoll collisions because people were piling them on top of each other.” said Poggu.

Now that it has been pointed out to Valve, what exactly is the root cause of the bug, only time will tell if they choose to act on it and deliver us with an update that stops the boosts from getting rendered useless.
