Why Servers ban the AWP?

[theMasterChief805]

I don't understand why every CSS server bans the AWP. And it's not just eGO XD. It's a great, balanced weapon. You can't just pick it up and own everyone, *cough*Call of Duty*cough* it takes a ridiculus amount of practice and timing.

Maybe some people think it's over powered, and I respect that. I just don't know why everyone complains about it. I'm glad there are DM servers that have it still though

You can use it in our Death Match Server, I suggest you go there and have some fun with the AWP. I do it all the time when I have AWP withdrawals.

Here is the IP so you can add it to your favorites:

It is not a balanced weapon. It takes one shot above the waist to kill a player. It is relatively easy to aim as well, if you know the spread of the game.

It would create lots of camping in the servers, and would probably result in the stacking of the defensive team of the map you are playing. i.e. CT on Dust2, CT on HS, and T on Italy.

Well the AWP is not balanced by damage, it is put in check by the money system. Many servers that ban them just use the 16k starting money system, so everyone would have an AWP all the time; making it severely un-balanced and not fun.

Wish we had a server with a rotation of stock maps and the awp, without 16k. I know about dropbox just lazy.

MLG Contender right here.

Should ban the para in dust_2 for the same reason. I recently got 10 kills...9 of them headshots in like 20 seconds...just spraying into a smoked tunnel.

This is a good idea! That way players have options on how they want to play. The server should have a lmit of 12 or players on a team, after that it gets a little crowded for the Counter Strike gametype.

Emphasis on LIKE a pro. Cause you're not, son. xD

I would only approve 1 awp per team and completely ban PARA from Italy..

The only problem is that people would just hog the awp, someone can have it the entire game disallowing anyone else to use it.

I'm going to summerize what has been said. Basically, since the beginning of CS, the AWP has been overpowered. It is one of those weapons where no matter what you aim at, it kills in one hit. People are trying to overcome this, and adding weapon restrictions is one of the ways to balance it. Of course it's not the perfect solution, but it's the best we got for now. If you want, you can always dropbox any ideas to help us.

 

[FireHawk Chaos]

Think I'm the only person here that can use use an awp and no one be scared.
