Honestly, folks complicate this. I've been running a CS:GO server for years and updating it is a no-brainer. SteamCMD does all the heavy lifting. Just make sure your path is correct with 'force_install_dir', then 'app_update 740' gets you running the latest and greatest. Also, keep an eye on official CS:GO forums for any peculiar updates or patches. Saved me more than once from a headache.

Updating your CS:GO server is pretty straightforward, just like refreshing your game strategy! First, open up SteamCMD. Once you're in, log into your Steam account (don't worry, it's all secure). After logging in, you'll want to use the 'force_install_dir' command to set the directory of your CS:GO server. Then, input 'app_update 740' and hit that enter key. This command is the magic spell that updates your server to the latest version. Trust me, it's easier than defusing the bomb on A site with 10 seconds left and no defuse kit.
