Sounds like a great idea to me!

It'll let me stick to the comedy guns more

This would be nice IF they don't over do it.

It will also make the DE/Elites/Five-Seven a more money efficent choice.

Until the next week when they review the stats and see more people are buying those guns so the price on them goes up.

A note about pistols. The purchasable items are split into two seperate groups: pistols, and everything else. This is an artificial segmentation of the economy designed to preserve Counter-Strike's "pistol round" -- the early period during which players can not yet afford the game's more powerful weapons. (If the pistols were included in the larger pool of prices, they would often become too expensive to afford during the beginning of a match.) Pistols are also given to players for "free" at the start of each round, which would artificially affect the economy.

This would suggest that they're capping the pistol costs.

Brilliant idea - it should push the price of the bloody awp through the roof

Doubt it, lots of servers ban it so what happens then?
Weapons padding is going to be such a bad thing.

Where do valve get their ideas from, cos they need a kick in the arse to remind them that sometimes idea do not work well in practice.

You should see the steam forums about it. It was on 64 pages when I left it at 3pm. God knows what its on now.

It's my age.

You can't get a HS while jumping.

Bots can.

They can't. Buy and awp and try it.

Try firing while in mid jump.

on a serious note.

If you were to jump in a real life situation, there is no-way in hell, unless you have the scope surgically attached to your eye that you could keep "zoomed in " whilst jumnping.

I think they should implement it so that if you jump, your rifle un-scopes.

Hmm, sounds a good idea and fair.

Doesn't really matter if it's a headshot or not with an awp.
I've definitely been killed with an awp in mid-air in the last week or two.

It's a shame there's no prone in the game - the awp should be totally impossible to use except at point blank or when prone. You certainly shouldn't be able to hit anything while walking.

No no no, you've been shot at then the guy has jumped. Or he's jumped, landed THEN shot.

It's impossible to shoot in mid air without it going MILES off target.

Instead of bitching about it, go try it and see for yourself.
