Camping is like literally the default strategy of one of the sides in this game. :<

And a lot of things reduce the strength of it: peeker's advantage, molotovs, grenades, smokes...

To me it feels like the devs played too much overwatch lately and they saw that "high noon" guy and thought it was pretty cool. To me that guns belongs to TF2 or overwatch, not cs, atleast not in its current form.

It definitely has nothing to do in CS.

I'm all for a new weapon that is balanced (even if not perfectly at the start, like the CZ), and that fills a very specific role, has a very specific purpose or gameplay.

This has none of them. It's unbalanced as shit, it's basically an AWP and a pistol mixed.

I like dangerous eco rounds. Maybe they wanted an anti-awp-hold-middle-pistol? Remove alt-fire, 2nd mag and moving/jumping accuracy? Can this thing work?

Or just make the deagle good again?^^

Well, the nerf to moving with pistols is a good thing at least .

To be honest, the deagle is not bad, it is just hard to use. We see it being used more and more in pro games (actually quite a lot depending on the team).

Also, you should not be able to counter an awp with a 850$ gun. Well, you should not be able to counter an awp with any gun to begin with. You counter an awp with smokes, flashes and teamplay.
The biggest problem I see with this gun is that it is godly close and midrange, let alone the fact that it is decent long range.

Also, the main complain people had with eco rounds is not that they are dangerous but that they are too random with people being able to run and gun with cheap pistols, so yes it is definitly a good thing that they addressed that.

You're right about the deagle, I meant that this gun should "feel" more like the R8. I think the hard-to-use-aspect comes from the rng part of its spray instead of its handling, which is sad.

I just don't think Valve is going to remove a gun with skins already sold, so how is it possible to make the revolver work?

You can bug the r8 out so you could primary shoot without the delay.

The more important issue here is this :
https://www.reddit.com/r/GlobalOffensive/comments/3w1c5n/the_changes_to_recoverytime_for_the_akm4_is_a/

They nerfed all form of shooting with rifles making them even more random.
The r8 will be nerfed eventually, but they fucked up the rifles and this is being completely ignored by the community because how ridiculous the r8 is at the moment.

i just dont see any reason to switch game mechanics that have been there for 10 years or so


That's not an argument per se. It's not because it's been there for a long time that it shouldn't be changed. It's a random and dumb "traditionalist" argument. There are reasons some things are the way they are. Not looking at these reasons and thinking about the whys and if it should be set in stone is completely dumb.

That doesn't mean the changes have to be completely random or poorly thought either. About the retakes, I find it more interesting that you have more opportunity to do it. That's debatable, but that means more such scenarios, and I like it.

Defuse kits are a good point to mention though, that may need some further tweaking.

We clearly know the old times work. I do not see a point in switching something that works. By the same logic of "making things more interesting", should we increase the size of football goals, or make the field smaller so theres more opportunities to score goals, since its "interesting". I dont understand why people would want to change something that quite obviously works on a fundamental level.

Uhm yeah, they change rules in sports too, the reason why you don't change things in traditional sports too is because its bounded by physical stuff and the worldwide availability makes it super hard to actually change stuff. IIRC they changed something about Ice hockey not too long ago. In CSGO you can change code that translates into changing everything so its significantly easier to implement. The accurate comparison is with other video games, and they sure as hell change fundemental stuff in Dota, League and other video games.

Just because its good doesn't mean it can't work better.

Yes they have changed things, but not huge fundamental things. I understand small balance/design tweaks like what you could explore with smokes and all sorts of stuff like that. Im simply not in favor of switching something that obviously is good to something that might, or might not be good. (guess why i stopped playing starcraft after lotv came out)

edit: i also agree 100% on what rogg wrote above this

Actually LoL and DotA have changed huge fundamental things on the level of round/bomb timers on multiple occasions. Camps have been moved around, creep rewards have been reworked, objective rewards have changed, rubber band mechanics were introduced, and even the position creeps meet at was changed. CS is by far a more static game, which isn't necessarily a bad thing, but there is definitely no reason to dismiss any change to the game simply because it is a change.

I think retakes are more exciting and engaging as both a player and a spectator, so this change is actually positive in my eyes. I also think smokes were too strong, so there's another benefit. I see little downside. Kits will still be important, just as 5 seconds added to the bomb timer base is important. Will CS play slightly differently in these situations now? Sure. Is that a bad thing? Not necessarily.

well, to be fair im 100% sure R8 will be nerfed but the problem is that they obviously wont de-nerf rifles
