Removal of the Revolver?

So, below is what I think should be nerfed and how Valve should handle this. Comment what You all think about the update and what you think of my thouts too. Also a straw poll I found today whether they shoudl remove the revolver.
http://strawpoll.me/6220165

-Increase the time for an accurate shot? Well maybe that is a solution, but for how long is too long, because this pistol needs to fit for all ranks, It can't be too long that its helpless in higher ranks but not too short for lower ranks to overuse.

-Decrease the damage? YUS!! Definitely a major problem. Drop the damage, but how low shoudl it go? Lower than the deagle? A bit more than the deagle?

-Drop the Penetration? Yes, 5 man colateral?! INASNE!! What were they thinking!! Its a pistol, not an $4750 AWP. I think it should drop to the same as the deagle. This also makes the deagle simular to the revolver (worth having the deagle aroudn anymore?)

-Raise the price up? This would all depend on what valve plans on doing with the the damage, penetration, and delay on the gun's acuate shots.

-Remove the R8 Revolver? This is what I think would be a genuine good idea. I think that Valve will encounted more bugs and trouble later down the road between the role of the revolver and the competion of even having the deagle around, and whether or not the revolver should trumps over the rifles during eco rounds or even replacing full buys with the revolver. The downside of removing the R8 Revolver is that all the skins that were purchased, traded, unboxed will be removed also. Which means that Valve must return all payments back to their steam or bank accounts.

End story:
-Valve messed up
-CS:GO's pride dropped by adding a new weapon (they never added a new weapon till now)
-Fixing the R8 Revolver will be a huge renovation towards the gameplay, pro players, and game mechanics.

Well, thats my thoughts on the broken new weapon, R8 Revolver. Comment what ou think Valve shoudl do to fix this delema, or comment of how wrong/right I am.
Happy Holidays

It can never be removed since skins have been introduced right away with its release. There has been too much money spent/earned already, it would be a database chaos to refund everything.

Exactly, but the revolver is also a chaotic thing that Valve also has to fix too.

Guys it was a decoy. Not many people noticed but they nerfed the ak and m4 as well at the pistols. The best theory of it right now is valve released the R8 as it is now so everyone keeps their attention off it. After skin sales drop a bit they release the actual revolver stats calling it a nerf. Just wait a week or two and this revolver thing is gonna be fixed. They cant remove it though since people alright bought skins and sell skins for it.

Would Valve really go such distances to have a decoy such as this? Possible, but it totally ruinned CS:GO's rep.

Well its not confirmed but right now it seems plausible. I mean the revolver concept is good just the stats make it bad. I had a topic about what they could do about it and such but it was deleted even though no one was spamming. Like i said after a week or two valve nerfs it and a few more weeks the community forgets all about it. The vets that left will soon be replaced and the newbs that watch guys like the Kootra and Uberhaxornova will buy this game.

These are also the new times for CSGO Major Championships.
– Adjusted recovery time on the AK47, M4A4, and M4A1-S assault rifles to reduce the range at which spraying is preferable to tapping/bursting.
– Increased move inaccuracy on pistols: Elites, Fiveseven, Glock, P2000, P250, Tec9, USP, CZ75a.

what i dont get is why add a new gun with huge power and then nerf 90% of all other primary and seconardy weapons??

Logic?

Money logic.. This is OP gun, so many people will use it.. Because of this weapon value so high (like AK and AWP) so the price is also high.. so High weapon value = high price skin + more people use it = more money skins.. it's not plus cases money..
The nerf of AK/M4 ? i don't think it's encourage tap shot at long distance, coz the first shot accuracy also get nerfed. so? maybe to encourage people to use SG/AUG, increasing SG/AUG value and that back to money logic again.
