nice guy Taz. NA is trying to ban it, but Hazed (who is on the council) is stopping that ayyy lmao ayyy
I think he will have to succumb to the pressure of his comrades so I am sure a ban will take place there eventually.
seems about fine.

What was Hazed reason for not banning it... ?

ok yeah the videos were bad enough. Mini rail gun in CS. Wonder who came up with this cancer.

I know it's bad to ignore the notion that one should "never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity", but I feel like there is SOME credibility to the general idea that Valve is not stupid, but rather, it releases extremely OP guns like it did with the CZ to get people interested and buying skins, and then they balance it out. Maybe I'm just wrong, but I wouldn't be surprised if they reasoned this out and now they're racking up mad dough on the revolver cases. But maybe it's just innocent straight up incompetence. I don't know.

Riot does the same, no? Truth isn't far off

To me, it seem goofy to do the same to sell keys for crates that indirectly give skins for the weapon at hand... but I guess it makes sense. To me it seems like the sheer level of incompetence it would take for someone at valve to think that this is viable is so astronomical, it seems more likely that it's all on purpose.
Now I don't know if this is true but I can't help to have the impression that they did this for quick cash and if they fucked the competitive scene briefly well it's too bad, they don't care too much.

My conclusion is that Valve just does not give a fuck about its players or game. Which is pretty inexcusable considering CSGO is one of the most played games in the world, with record sales and strong exposure in the competitive scene, you would think Valve would make a slightest bit of effort to keep their game from going to shit. If they did really care, they would act like a normal game development company by: 1. Testing their updates on a beta server before releasing it on live. 2. Getting the opinions of pro players who know the game more than they do. 3. Admit when they made a mistake on game breaking update and hotfix what the community unanimously agrees is broken (R8 glitch fixed but nerf still not implemented, shows how much Valve believes they're never in the wrong).
Its just quite astonishing how such a transparent company can command such a popular game and treat their players like shit but people still throw money at them by buying their stupid cases and keys

What you mean is CS:GO should have its Icefrog working for the dev' studio. Which is still not Valve but Hidden Path Entertainment.

This would make more sense yeah. It's a pretty disgusting thing to do though, so I don't know what is better: Thinking of the company as incompetent retards or thinking of them as disgusting fucks...

When i first saw about this gun i was certain the charge up would be alot longer like 3sec or so.

The 100% accuracy while moving is ridiculous. Nerf that one and I am pretty sure the gun wouldn't be a problem.

Oh, I stand corrected. Didn't catch anything about that, so assumed it was still HPE, esp. as their splash is still in the game.

Changed my mind, a weapon that powerful and accurate for that price is just retarded. It's like a deagle for retards. One shooting while being accurate is just so stupid, seriously, fuck it. Like we already have the deagle it was perfect for the role of a hard hitting accurate gun.
I could MAAYYYYBBBEE be onboard with if they removed the right click thing, remove accuracy while moving and increase the load ti.... no fuck it this is stupid, long range one shotting is stupid from a fucking pistol.

Although he changes his name often so I don't know.
Edit: I think I see him on TeamBlackEye, I recognize the name ShirleyAstreX I think he used that one before.
