I had to say this because it bothers me. You said Para (Heavy Machine Gun) in your pole. Although in the game it says Para, the gun is actually an M249 SAW, and it is an LMG, which is a LIGHT Machine Gun. A heavy machine gun is always a crew serviced weapon, and it would definitely not be in counter strike.

In fact heavy machine guns are rarely used anymore. There are few that are in service today, but when they were used, they were highly effective, but in modern days, they just don't fit in with squad based tactics.

Mainly they are used in War, other then that you don't see a cop wearing a Para on their belts for cleaning the streets.
It is an LMG which baffles me why they put it as a HEAVY when clearly heavy ones are those .50 CAL and so on.
And your no Master Cheif so you can't hold a 50 cal by hand unless Modded.
On another note: I Like the Para, In DEATHMATCH servers I can really tear stuff up with one.
You thought spawn camping couldn't get any worse I whip out the Para lol.

I know, heavy machine guns are only used in war, but they aren't used much anymore, not since Vietnam. Military tactics have changed to squad based tactics, and heavy machine guns were made for mowing down waves of soldiers, or keeping pressure on tons and tons of soldiers. But when they're all broken into squads wandering the landscape, and nowhere near each other, it destroys the point of one. So now they use LMGs and MMGs. They still have some HMGs, and when in use, they can fire for days without stopping if crewed properly.

But yeah, they are about .50 cal. Nobody can carry that. They also have to be water cooled.

I don't see what the point in changing the names of the guns in CS was.

Yeah, Ever since Nam they haven't been used.
LMGs and MMGs are more used, so yeah.
I don't see why as well, to be honest all the guns are mis-named in CSS; Its annoying really; Hence why I made a remake of the hud to PROPERLY name the guns.

I find it funny that they named the AUG 'bullpup' when that could be a million different guns.

the thing I despise about awpers, is that most rub their "skill" in others faces. It's so pointless, really.

the AWP is pretty much bullshit now.i do admit that the AWP is my common sniper rifle,not becuz i like to rub it into someone's face,but becuz i am a noob when it comes to sniping.many noob snipers would use the AWP most of the time.the majority of CS 1.6/CS:S pros would use the scout since it takes ACTUAL skills to make the kill.

i wonder if berserker ever LOOKED at the Para's basic shape.like,with a shape like that,there's no way it could be an HMG.not only do HMG's use high-caliber bullets,have to have at least a 2-man crew to operate it and have to be water cooled,but they would definitely have more than 100 bullets ready to be fired.the Para has 100 rounds per mag,but an HMG would likely have more than that.

I don't mind the AWP when it's 1 per team in a pub. I only use it when that one person is whoring it out and demolishing my team. Other than that I've been using the SCOUT to try and get my aim better.

My #1 gun that I use is the FN-P90 since it's my fave gun in any game.

If Valve can give the awesome active support they do to TF2, and L4D, then why can't they update CS:S? Seriously, they updated DOD:S with some new graohics and the icon interface, but not CS.

They could nerf the AWP along with it.

Awp is fine in matches, should be limited to one or two in pubs.
It DMs its just hilarious to play with, it also tests your reactions.
P90? No skill needed to shoot with that, all you do it hold the trigger down and aim, no skill at all.
