Counter Strike: Global Offensive v7: Creeps from the weeb team represent

Atm they should disable it for competitive modes as a temporary solution. I see people enjoy the revolver a lot in other non-ranked game modes, which is fine, but not in competitive mode.
Maybe something just like Dota 2 (once again we can put CSGO and Dota 2 side to side to see what can be improved), they release a new hero but usually disable the hero for captains mode, which is the most serious game mode because it is used in tournaments. Whenever Valve consider the new hero is balanced, they make it available for such game mode.
Someone in TF2M chat pointed out that Valve probably have the real, balanced stats from playtesting already, but made the gun OP on release to attract attention, which wouldn't surprise me at all. Whether or not the R8 is a necessary addition is another matter.

Penetration is the only thing about it that should get nerfed, thats it really.
disable it under game options.[/QUOTE]
Lmao.
This is far worse than all of the following: beta deagle, AUGpocalypse, mistake buff tec 9 and release CZ.

You are not considering the fact that the AK47 costs $2700 while r8 is just $850.
I hate the pistol changes and the rifle changes, I don't give a shit about this stupid revolver.

I honestly doubt it, that'd mean they'd have to be intelligent to pull some move like that.
Time and time again it just seems like they have no clue whatsoever about their own game.
They really seem to like lying to their own community I really don't like it. Like the blatant lies and stretched truths they give in changelogs, they are doing that shit on purpose. Why?
[QUOTE=Plaster;49279768]Why do you all say it's 1hit gun? none of the shots I've made and got were 1hit except for those really close ones like 2meters or something.
it's not an autosniper either, at least be happy they didn't gave it as much ammo as the tec9 had before the nerf[/QUOTE]
I got fucking headshotted through a wall with it on assault. The guy was on opposite side of the map for fucks sake, I had just left ct spawn
It's like Valve is doing "social" experiments for gun freaks :D

Probably to hype it up and make a shit load of money off of the skins. There's a reason why they included 2 of the most valued skins for it at launch.
On the upside, you can call for timeouts in Deathmatch!

I dont understand the csgo devs logic, like how does this gun fit in? It's better than all of the shotguns at close range, its better than all of the pistols at any range, its better than the scout, you can duel with rifles at medium range and win. This patch is such a shitshow. At least there will be some dumb memes.
What infuriates me the most is how they nerf the spraying accuracy of the A1,A4, and AK but don't buff the viability of tapping and bursting for these weapons.
so the awp is a risk for reward weapon
is the r8 just a reward weapon
If it's true what seba writes then we don't have to worry for long until the changes come. Valve definitely attracted attention.

the picture of the revolver is not as sharp as the rest
So this shit update came out just as I had a couple of days off from work, any recommendations on other games for the moment? I honestly feel bored with CS when I play this update.
So, have any pro matches already been played with the revolver? Cause I want to see just how retarded it looks. I know ESL ESEA will be using the previous version of the game in their event, but did any other leagues not ban the revolver yet?

I know that the EU FPL agreed to not use the revolver
So now trying to play seriously, I now see how fucking broken this update is.
Can't hit the broad side of the fucking barn with the rifles now and then you get 1 shot by this cheap ass pistol.
I hope these clueless fucking clowns come out with a patch quickly.
My opinion on how to make the R8 acceptable:
-6/6 ammo not 8/8
-No M2 function at all
-Slightly lower but similar damage to the scout
-No 100% nonsense running accuracy like right now
-Price increase, maybe 900 or 950
Basically make it a slightly different interesting deagle with trade offs, like its supposed to fucking be, not a pocket awp.
Also these stupid rifle nerfs wtf.
Pistol nerfs are fine.
Like I know I'm an overly dramatic loser who has way too much invested in CS but I think this patch is hands down worst, least thought out patch in CS GO history.
Please everybody continue to make a big deal about it.
This has really ruined my day lol.

It also takes .357 and it's somehow much stronger than the Deagle, which takes .50 AE

This makes a lot more sense actually. Kind of a disgusting business practice though.
[QUOTE=DeEz;49280258]This makes a lot more sense actually. Kind of a disgusting business practice though.[/QUOTE]
Riot did this a lot before too, idk if they still do but they often released unbalanced heroes and waited a week or two and then nerfed them back to actually balanced after people spent money on them.
I really hate being the test dummy. Why do you insist on killing my gaming experience for multiple days and just leaving me mad?
R8 is 100% guaranteed to stay now, I dont think it should exist in the first place but now it was forced on us. It can work, it can be balanced, I just fucking hate being forced to sit on my hands and wait until the gears in their head move enough to balance things sufficiently.

And yes I'm on a rage posting rampage
tbh I fucking love this update
I don't even play CSGO and I got a revolver case worth 10 bucks after an hour of revolver DMing and zero effort
A+, thanks valve

Why do people keep bringing this up; comparing gun damages based on their cartridges makes no sense, it's a videogame
.357 =/= .338
even for videogames this is retarded
ok so playing comp with the revolver, what could go wrong
