Valve reacting to Reddit

Another long-running bug that has finally been fixed regards picking up weapons. When players died while having their grenade out it dropped next or on top of his weapon. This caused major issues for other players trying to pick them up as reddit-users birkir and kinsi55 have pointed out.
