When did AWPs users begin to not be noobs?

If you know how to play the game you can take on snipers. Play a different game or play on noob servers that restrict weapons.

Noob.

Honestly. Play CAL, then whine about AWP'ers! Hahah, I bet you won't even be able to jump over the crack (double-doors) near CT spawn on dust2 without getting sniped by a T. :laugh:

Man I hated Valve to taking them out, they were so much fun when people whined about them.

Back in the Day CS, you could kill someone by shooting them in the foot with the AWP.

AWP is still a major game stopper. It's very unbalanced. It's like having a regular weapon and everyone's head the size of a boulder. Despite what other legit people might do, AWPs are most used by noobs who just camp and wait, which ruins the game.

Regarding the deagle thing...

You don't notice how people like to buy deagles and AWPs in the same round? They believe that it will make them quickswitch faster and therefore reload faster after firing a shot. That doesn't really work as Valve increased the delay time with the AWP so...yes...IT DOESN'T WORK.

In CS 1.6, it works. Just not Source.

Same reason people pull out the knife at the beginning of the round even though you move just as fast with the pistol now, its just a force of habit.

?

I always got a deagle w/awp because when people get close deagle does the trick fast since its more powerful...

Yeah, I always buy a deagle too. I was just commenting people continue trying to do tricks that no longer work.

Once you start playing with people who know what they're doing then the awp becomes just another gun. You can use it too, right?

Like I said, there are noob friendly servers that restrict it. People who complain about it, need to just find another server and be done with it.

I prefer a Scout to the AWP.

LOL another VIAN thread where he whines about a computer game.

 

[Shack70]

Awps and campers don't bother me. It's part of the game. It's the complainers and whiners that make the game suck

 

[Ika]

Though I realize the AWP is part of the game, I still always hate it when the game degenerates into a camp/AWP type. I almost always play an office-only map, and for the first 10 rounds or so, everything is fine and dandy. Then when CTs start winning, the Ts start camping in projector room with awps, and it snowballs... to the point where Ts just automatically go to projector room, block up the doors, and awp.

that's generally what happens in my experience too. it becomes an awp fest.

and i love how people hate the autosniper

The problem with the semi-auto sniper rifles is that, unless you're EXTREMELY accurate or expect to engage multiple targets frequently (which is usually a losing proposition because few maps are big enough to really exploit the range of the sniper rifles), the AWP is a better weapon. It has significantly better penetration capability, and it's far easier to get one-hit kills. The faster cycle time of the semi-auto rifles is irrelevant against a single target, since the AWP will kill them in one hit anyway.

IMO, CS becomes a more interesting game overall when you take out the AWP. It makes sniping too one-dimensional. To me, it's not really a question of it being a "noob weapon"; using it well still takes significant skill. Although it does make it much, much easier to get one-hit sniper kills than with the Scout or the semi-auto rifles.

 

[RamIt]

You should see people try to Awp on my zombie server. I have recoil set at 1000 so it will blow you halfway across the map with each shot
76.211.224.229:27015

 

[enz660hp]

if you dont like the awp, play on a server where they are not allowed. Personally, I dont like hiding behind my gun, and instead like to run circles around ppl w/ my TMP. CSS is the one game that has held my attention for as long as I could remember....i love it. Not all snipers are bad, if you are a real man, you would use a scout. Now that takes some skill... i hate bein awped, but i love owning an awper with a scout or lesser weapon from long range....

 

[Cabages]

Every server I play on bans the AWP, so I dont have to much hate for it. Why so many people use this weapon is beyond me, tried it a couple times, and was not lovin it.

WTF...the Ts job on office is to defend the hostages. Hiding in the projector room is just one valid strategy to achieve that goal.

I can never understand why people whine about CTs "camping the bombsites" or Ts "camping the hostage room". Those are the objectives they're suppose to defend.

 

[clickynext]

Experienced players use awps too and they're pretty damn good at it! I love that weapon, it's awesome. And it provides more opportunity for knifing too!
