It’s not like you’re reloading a magazine. It’s more like you take the magazine that’s in the gun, dropping it on the ground (including the ammo that was remaining in the magazine) and loading a new full magazine.
That part in parenthesis is what’s new. Previously, that ammo would have been returned to your reserve ammo.
It’s just gone
Now, when you reload, you’ll drop the used magazine and discard all of its remaining ammo.

From reloading to custom games, today's update will give you plenty to think about.Reload When you reload in CS2, the leftover ammo in your magazine is dumped back into an essentially endless reserve supply. And so the decision to reload has never offered significant trade-offs—in a safe position with enough time, you might reload after firing a single bullet, or half a mag, or after firing down to empty, and the rest of the round would be unaffected.
