Reintroducing Wingman

Wingman is a 2v2 version of Counter-Strike Competitive, where two teams of two players face off against each other in a best-of-16 rounds match. The first team to win 9 rounds wins the match.

The gamemode is now available on LambdaNet, queue up with a friend or on your own and face off against bots.

Wingman Maps

Wingman is launching with 6 maps, which you can see above.

All maps are for the defuse gamemode, with Hostage rescue coming later this year.

Introducing Profile Backgrounds

Profile Backgrounds are a brand new economy item that's more visible than ever.

Backgrounds are available in the Operation Equinox Store. Backgrounds are visible when getting an MVP, in your inventory inspecting and various parts of the UI that show a user cover image.

Available Backgrounds

Using the new screenspace Shaders available in Garry's Mod, we have introduced 8 unique backgrounds, with more to come in the future

These backgrounds are available in the Operation Equinox Store, and can be used to customize your profile.

Examples

Here are some examples of the new profile backgrounds in the wild.

Taser Recharging is here

Gone are the days where the Zeus x27 was a one-shot wonder. With today's update the Taser now recharges.

By default the Taser takes thirty seconds to charge, with the charge time being reduced in games like Arms Race.

Reintroducing the R8 Revolver

After being absent from the new base gamemode, the R8 Revolver is finally back.

The revolver now works more like how it does in Counter-Strike.

Decoy Grenade

The decoy grenade is now here! After throwing it, the grenade will play the sound of the most powerful weapon in your loadout.

Incendiary Grenade & Molotov

The Incendiary Grenade (For CT's) and Molotov (For T's) are now here!

Rewritten from the ground up, these grenades now use newer, higher quality particle effects and the flames now spread.

New Operation Equinox Missions

Phase 2 missions for Operation Equinox are now here.

Due to the delay from the release of the operation, another set will be released next week in addition.
