AUG/SG WAY TOO OVERPOWERED

I dont see why there was even a thought of a need for a buff to these two already good guns, that completely and utterly destroyed the balance of the game. Any and all competitive match has gone from a balanced game where teamwork and skill were needed to basically an AUG/SG competition of who can kill the other at long range faster. Im positive Im not the only one who hates this.

This was literally the worst thing they did.

the aug and sg are both MORE money than the m4 and ak. Its logic. Deal wit it.

They don't know how to leave well enough alone.

Poor GO is their guinea pig.

The sg is usable now, you couldn't hit anything with the sg before the update. The Aug didn't need a boost, it was fine how it was.

AK47 and M4 are still much better IMO. I don't plan on using anything else as my go-to full buy weapon (besides the AWP).

I don't hate it. The AUG/SG needed a buff. Maybe not this big. But they were useless before and everyone used either the M4A4(1) or the AK. Those guns were ignored in competitive. Not a single gun should be ignored in competitive play, every gun should have a chance to shine. Before CS:GO everything that wasn't AWP/Eagle/AK/M4 was ignored. Everything.

Also, they cost way more to buy so they SHOULD be better than the main guns. The AUG has a horrible reload time anyway. Not to mention the scope was always almost useless.

They won't stay for long this way, but i'm sure they will be better than they were in the last patch.

I agree, it did need a buff, but like you said, not this bad.

I think they're fine, but everyone seems to think they're really OP.

And you're right, they shoud be better since they cost more. I hate people who think that the auto snipers and negev are OP (because A. They're not that great B. They're SUPER expensive).

SG is fine now. AUG needs to be balanced out. Case closed.

As far as the AUG being more expensive, it is only $200 more than the M4A4. It isnt that much more. The Sig seems okay, but the aug's fire rate is just dumb imo.

They should make it reload much faster and fire a bit slower than the M4. Not sure what the exact damage figure sare, but they should be somewhat close to the M4's.

Also, $200 is a big difference in some situations. It could be the differnce between being able to buy a smoke or going defenseless. It could be the difference between having to buy an M4 or a Famas.

I like the AUG is finally a real option to concider if you have enough money. it always was like a slow M4 with more recoil and a useless scope, now its shoots faster and the scope adds something. It could be too much, but I understand why they changed it.

SG is also 300$ more than the AK. But the AUG is 400$ more if you are using M4A1-S.
I just think the rate of fire is a bit too much on both guns. The real drawback here is the reload time which is LONG and should be long. I never used the guns before the patch, and every time i tried to use them because i wanted to resulted in me being killed because they weren't precise and the recoil was horrible, not to mention they were more expensive. Now i use them. Not all the time, but when i have the money.

CS:GO is a testing ground for them and that is fine. They already tweaked a bunch of things. If they didn't test it out on us, they couldn't tweak it.
