Here your local game predicts where bullets, objects, players etc will move based on the information received from the server so far, then synchronises this with the next update from the server through a variety of &#8220;smoothing&#8221; algorithms.<\/p>\n<p>The result, as Valve demonstrate in the post with a pair of comparison gifs, is a much more accurate playback of what players see during play.<\/p>\n<p>That said, Valve does raise a few caveats. Primarily, it says &#8220;there may still be some differences between what you see in the demo and what the player originally saw&#8221;. As an example, Valve points out that &#8220;damage effects will have different timing during demo playback due to the way CPU and GPU work are pipelined.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>In addition, Valve notes that TrueView &#8220;will also perform damage prediction on enemies, if damage prediction was used by the observed player at the time,&#8221; while the system is deactivated automatically when &#8220;the version of the game you are using to view the demo does not match the version of the game used to record the demo.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>TrueView has been added to CS2 as part of<a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/store.steampowered.com\/news\/app\/730\/view\/578276333072678914?l=english\" target=\"_blank\"> today&#8217;s patch,<\/a> which also includes a couple of movement tweaks and animation fixes for the G3SG1 bolt.
