Valve has released a new update where they have made a big overhaul of CS:GO's sounds.
Valve has released a CS:GO update which contains a whole overhaul to in-game sounds. The sounds now vary which depending on the surface a player is running on. For example, jumping and moving on the snow or water will create different sounds to let's say concrete. You can see the full changelog below:
