    AWPs are now restricted on cs_thunder2006 and de_port. For thunder, I figure there’s no tactics involved – some noob with an AWP is always out there, on either team, blasting away. They should learn to aim. Port, of course, is one big cluster*edited* and people have been asking me to restrict it for weeks ;)

    Yeah.. I hate when one team has 5 awps, opposing team rushes in, opposing team is almost wiped out. It is really hard to avoid being shot by more than 2 awps lol.

    People *edited* about restrictions all the time. They argue that it’s so easy to kill an awper, which is totally true. The problem comes when you have 5 of the *edited*s watching various areas clustered together. Then there isn’t much you can do. That’s why I’ve supported restrictions on weps per team. Maps that don’t need them at all, because it becomes extremely lame really fast on a pub server are: cs_militia, cs_assault, de_port, cs_italy_blitz_b1, and cs_thunder2006. That’s all the ones I can think of now. I know Flakes will argue, but we ARE NOT A CAL SERVER! When 10 people on the other team get an awp, people start leaving our server or camping and won’t do anything. This gets really old (and boring) really fast.

    #19565

    Why would I argue? And why would I bring up CAL? The maps listed aren’t even in CAL so gtfo scrub :P.

     

    Certain maps get really lame with an AWP and need restrictions. The one’s Kuros listed are right on the money and shouldn’t have AWPs on them.

    We should think about restricted the awp on aztec as well… this may be taking it too far and saying we should restrict it for all maps then, but I think aztec is just ridiculous when Cts have awps… they have 2 places to cover, and that can be done easily.

    Can’t restrict them on aztec because then it wouldn’t be aztec anymore.

    Maps such as Port, Thunder, and ItalyBlitz aren’t fun with awps, simply because of the landscape of the map. I’d argue against taking them away in these instances because I’m a firm believer of allowing whatever is in the game to be played, no matter the map, but I agree with the decision to remove them in these maps to increase enjoyment for the rest of the server.

     

    Removing the awps from maps like Aztec, Dust2, etc would be going too far. People need to learn how to handle an awp on maps such as Aztec simply because it will help them in the long-run and allow them to get off of the baby “crutch” so to speak. On Aztec all people have to do is rush. T’s for the most part are too scared to peek DoubleDoors or Bridge BECAUSE of the awp, but when someone finally has the balls and rushes out, the awps don’t know what to do and people start dying. On top of that, T’s can easily smoke their own bridge room, smoke the CT’s bridge room, and rush across. When it comes to DD, THROW FLASHES AND SMOKES OVER THE WALL. Seriously, you can throw flashes and smokes over the wall above DD, just like the doors at long A in D2. A thrown smoke disrupts awps, a flash throws the other team into a disarray, and combine those with a rush and next thing you know you have dead CT’s.

    I have no problem with the awp. What I have a problem with is pro cs:s player coming into our pub for 10 hours causing anyone on the opposing team to have a terrible gaming experience. I know thats how I and several others felt last night when Cosu bLg was playing. He would have an AWP by the third round and just about keep it the entire game. I generally have no problem with an awp as I can smoke, flash, etc… but there are those out there that can use the weapon to take out entire teams. /shrug, dunno what i’d have done but I do know that it sucks when pro’s play on our server simply to own everyone. Its a pub and I don’t enjoy being someone’s practice dummy.

     

    Beyond the above scenario, the awp is fine w/ me. Me, freeman, and seph wanted to shoot ourselves last night though. Pro AWP whoring ftl. <_<

     

    I love cake and babies. Got any orange juice? Happy people wear penguins. :ph34r:

    Hahhaah blg is not a pro by any stretch. Plays CAL-O, from what I hear flakes and his team worked em over pretty hard. Looking at the stats he has a horrible record against me 4-14. Seems like he plays with the awp too much and he suffers with rifles as a result. Maybe adjust habits so you dont get in positions to get awped. It happens to me so rarely anymore that I don’t actually cuss or punch the monitor when it happens. That is probably why I don’t get killed by him, I try and watch the angles where I can easily get awped at. Just practice it till it is habit and you wont get frustrated by it as much. I used not have that attitude at all and hated the guns, but thinking about it now, flakes is right about what he said a while back about awps, they can be dealt with, and trying to do so will make you a better player. *edited*ing won’t on the other hand.

    1 person with the AWP I can deal with, its when you have 2 or 3 covering the same point from different angles that it is practically impossible to get through, unless they all miss which in that case they are very bad with the AWP and shouldn’t have it in the first place. My point is if there are enough people with an AWP, throw as many smokes/flashes you want and your still gonna get picked off.

     

    Unless of course your whole team rushes with you, but thats a rare occurrence, its a pub and people are just playing for fun or for stats, either way they aren’t rushing with you.

    I dealt with blgx last night, although I was basically the only one on at the time that could… I just had to p90 rush certain camp spots and use flashes. Still he’s an awp *edited* to the extreme and will save money during pistol round just so he can buy one in the 2nd round if he’s on the winning team. Personally I don’t like the guy, he was driving us nuts on Italy Blitz last night… But contrary to most peoples opinion, we can not ban him simply for awp whoring. There were some questionable things I saw last night… like killing someone with the awp not only while flashed on dust2 but actually aiming at the right spot… not just random shooting.

    I don’t know, other things he did could have been explained by sound… but it looked like walling in some instances.

     

     

    I just played port and there were multiple awps on each team, I thought they were to be restricted and if so, isn’t 1 enough for those kind of maps.

    I think awps are just a matter of how good or how cheap the person using them is… I was playing T on assault (later I switched), and I got bored waiting around and bought an awp just for *edited*s and giggles… I went up and noscoped in the vents, where you’re pretty screwed anyway, then once that died down I went to the roof and started cleaning up outside. I singlehandedly took out most of the team, and proceeded to take lots of heat for awping :P

     

    I then knife camped the vent (uneventful) for a round or two, then joined ct… the last round when everyone had the same plan, they actually won (imagine that)

     

    So I’ll try not to convince people to restrict the awp on all the maps around, if I can help it. But a word of advice, if you’re awping and I knife rush and stab you to death and steal your awp, don’t whine if I tear apart your team with your awp :P

    At this point I don’t care anymore but I figured I’d post this in regards to people saying he is easy to kill. If he really is that easy I would imagine more than 2 people would have a positive score against him.

     

    I also don’t give 2 *edited*s what we do about awps. My post was slightly more centered towards the server players attitude towards blgx.2.

     

    I was merely pointing out that a lot of players on the opposing team from him were complaining and quitting the server. It was annoying because people were asking the admin to do something when there was nothing legit admin could do. The fact that flakes and brian can kill him easily says nothing in way of what most of the server population can do. You guys act like I’m saying ban him.

     

    It was the majority concensus that people weren’t having fun on the server that particular night.

     

    Hell look at the stats on what players hes killed vs whose killed him:

    The two people that have clearly killed him are,

    Brian 4/14

    Prince Chantz 8/15

     

    The people that have probably wanted to shoot themselves in the face are: Killed by/Killed Him

    Rook 33/6

    Seph 18/13

    Webstar 16/2

    Kappamerc 14/5

    Untouchable 11/3

    Spartan 10/7

    Ducksauce 10/1

    Davey-T 10/1

    Bracket 9/0

    Jim Jones 9/1

    Gravy Neck 8/0

    Patient Zero 8/0

    Nicanico 8/0

    (Clemson) Enough 7/1

    Whatup 7/0

     

    The rest below this are negative compared to him but numbers are too low to really say anything about it.

     

    There aren’t many that have bested him. A match a person played against CoSu says nothing about our pub players and their ability. Again, I’m not mad because hes good, I’m frustrated because people on the server wanted something done and there was nothing freeman, seph, or I could do. Therefore, I figured I’d bring it up here. I’d rather not get smartass remarks everytime I post something. At least once it’d be nice to get something constructive that lacks the smartass line.

     

    As far as I’m concerned I don’t care if anything is done. I was posting to recieve legitimate feedback on what other players thought based on the fact that many pubbers were getting frustrated and leaving due to his ability with an awp. Instead I get flamed for /*edited*ing?

     

    meh..

    I don’t think we can do that kuros, if I remember correctly that ability was taken from the majority of admins. You and gxti are the only ones that still have it, maybe falcon, I dunno though, haven’t tried it in a while.

    gxti, please add “w” back to the admin group so that they can restrict weapons.

    #19682

    if weapons are restricted, it should be a standered thing per map.

    dont randomly… i can see it now and admin keeps getting awped, so they restrict that weapon so they no longer die.. or Lets rush long A,, i’ll restrict teh awps so they cant pick us… deff NOT a good idea

    The admin push script is broken due to FTP being down and all, but I’ll change the script.

    I agree with nodice, simply giving us this power won’t really solve any problems and may even invoke some admin abuse. The thread we had going a long time ago with the vote clearly showed that the majority of people would like them restricted to 1-2 per team on ALL maps, I think thats still the best course of action but it’s your call.

    Yeah I agree with Seph here. Sadly nothing seems to have gotten implemented from that survey.

     

    Otherwise, what the hell do you want done, yeah, you got your *edited* skinned, but take it like this, consider him as a Boss or something if you were playing another game, maybe an elite from wow or something. I’m not flaming or *edited*ing at you. You blame for how good you do in this game.
