It's a tactical weapon like any others. Those who complain so much about it either don't know how to use it properly or don't like using it.

When the mission objective is to win the round, you play to win. I don't care if you are cheap or not, as long as it's not cheating, it's good.

<--- Has won several rounds with the awp.

AWP/AWM doesn't seem so bad, now that the AutoSnipe is the gun of choice. I hate the AutoSnipe with a passion. Couple days back I was doing ok(slightly more Kills than Deaths) on a server and this one guy was completely owning half my team with the AutoSnipe. I came across the guys dead body 1 round and I was so pissed at him I took his Auto. For the next 3 rounds I was owning half his team. At the end of the 3rd round using it, I just tossed the damned thing, it should be removed ASAP!

autosnipe = the original automatic sniper rifle now with the power of the scout = rapid firing scout = uber cheapness = fun fun fun!

I have no problem with it as long as asshats arent using wallhacks and autoaim etc. It is extremly powerfull but its not that hard to kill someone that has it if ur halfway decent.

AWP still takes at least a semblance of skill to use. Its far from impossible to go up against an AWP-user if you know your maps and where he's likely to be waiting for you.

Auto-sniper is far, far cheaper.

And, oh yeah, this thread still makes baby Jesus cry.

This is the first time I've heard the scout being referred to as the auto-snipe. :confused:
