Gameplay:
? Added additional camera punch effect to weapon firing to give more visual feedback.
? Added convar to support buying two flashbangs (ammo_grenade_limit_flashbang). This is disabled by default.
? SMGs get a range increase.
? Falloff distances for SMGs have been improved to reduce micro hits at medium distances.
? UMP 45 gets a small armor ratio buff and a very minor cycle time buff.
? P90 gets a armor ratio debuff to bring it more in line with its smg brethren rather than make it as good if not better than entry level rifles.
? Added first shot recoil suppression to allow for closer grouping of the first few shots in a burst or full auto fire.
? TBots that try to plant in an invalid space will quickly give up and pick a new place to try to plant now.
? Arms Race now ends with a gold knife to convey to the user the difference between killing someone with a knife to steal their level and killing someone with a knife to win the game.
? A knife kill in Arms Race now only sets you back a weapon level if you were killed by an enemy.
? The C4 now has a short (0.5 second) grace period for defusing, during which time the player can interrupt and resume defusing. This restores the old 0.5 second latency that existing in CS for defusing, but also maintains the newer preferred ability to stop defusing without the player being inexplicably stuck for up to 0.5 seconds. This also greatly reduces the chance that small lag/packet loss events will result in the defuse being interrupted.
? Reduced the size of the hostage hitboxes.
? Changed the ducking speed to match the unducking speed. Both are now 200 ms.
? Slightly reduced HE grenade damage per pro feedback.

UI

? Added Elo rank to the stats screen.

? Video settings - Changed vsync option so it does not get immediately applied when the option is changed by the user in the UI. Instead, the user must hit the Apply button for the vsync setting to be changed, like most of the other settings.
? Video settings - the "Reset to Defaults" disables vsync now.
? Added missing motion blur option to the Advanced Video Settings menu. The Advanced Video options have been reorganized: global shadow quality is now at the top, and the two anti-aliasing settings have been moved together.
? The team select screen now has a short objectives blurb so as a new player you know what the map objectives are.
