CS:GO - Does the Deagle need Changing?

[@tingispingis]

Crazy how the deagle has a slightly higher accuracy than the USP but when you actually shoot the deagle it feels like you're firing blanks and the USP feels like a laser

[@h38-m9e]

Could be due to the increased magazine size and rate of fire on the USP

[@Fabianwew]

Yeah, this is weird. The USP seems way more tight in groupings.

[@chillpill1266]

probably because u have to wait like 2 seconds for the recoil on the deagle to decay meanwhile usp has like no recoil

[@paul1234730]

That's due to horrible recoil recovery

[@7orque]

Recoil and ROF - USP and the .45 has much less and the game reflects that nicely.

This reminds me so much of the Ambassador from Team fortress 2. It used to be accurate all ranges and do a critical hit at any range, which is 102 damage but only if you hit the head, which people started complaining about, seeing that sniper should be the only class viable at longer ranges. They they made the critical hit on headshot fall off massively and significantly nerfed its range. Its trash, but it does remind me of the deagle in its current state, and the state it will most likely stay in. Idk just something cool wanted to see if anyone else thought of the amby.

[@zxvc849]

welp im sniper main (2k+ hrs in game) and i havent played pc games for months but i remember how they nerfed this gun. Its very horrible, i lost my favorite enemy. Deagle is RNG + skill based and it can hit hard if u get lucky but amby is skillbased only but prolly cuz crybabies cried cuz they got pwned by fellow gunspies it got nerfed to the ground. Really surprising for sure. Sniper does -150 min HS damage but basically can one shot everyone and the only good counter to snip was gunspy with amby. Sure, spies can use stock revolver but if i have a pocket medic its just not enough damage. I rly miss dueling with good gunspies. Amby requires alot of skill and gives almost no reward.

[@dredgeglyph6191]

@@zxvc849 dude I totally agree with you. It was ridiculously hard to get consistently good with the many because you cant zoom in like sniper and you have to hit such a small hitbox. Additionally, the many was existing peacefully for 7 years until valve decided to nerfed it and everyone suddenly started talking about how it deserved the nerf.

[@justincruz8050]

Hey, another team fortress junky with 2k hours. I think the amby nerf was warranted and the parallel you make between that and the CS deagle is interesting. I think a big part of the amby was most certainly the skill disparity between the highest level league players and the average one. When pushed to its limit, the ambassador completely morphed the class into something else, making more of an impact on a team as another sniper/ squishy dps which was especially impactful in community modes like highlander. On an average server, it was a skill cannon with gratifying potential, but one 100k hour player rolls up and suddenly the spy is someone else entirely

[@Mebble]

It's also exactly how double-action/single-action revolvers work irl (which is what the R8 is).

@@sRetailStoreMusic well most of the players in the game are in the lower two thirds of the matchmaking rank system.

It's people bitching because pros are good with the gun, so other people learn to use it and people complain about getting killed all the time by "non meta" guns. Just because you didn't get killed by an AK or M4 doesn't mean the gun you DID get killed with is unbalanced. If valve wanted us to only use the AK and M4 they would just have only those rifles in the game.

[@gale7682]

@@Ultra289 You forget how much the game had changed since 2012. P250 used to have 1 hit hs, cz was 300$, tec 9 run spam, five seven had only 1 recovery value. The problem back then wasn't the deagle but the other pistols so valve nerfed pretty much every good pistol except deagle. Now they actually buffed it so that inaccuracy after landing didn't take 2 seconds so you can even jump and land without having to wait. So the comparison to aug/sg is not that good as ak/m4 were barely changed except for m4a1s nerfs but even then you could just pick a4 instead.

[@zerophoenix8312]

It is less accurate, but more spammable, it wasnt made for accurate shooting since the beginning. The only accurate pistol in 1.6 is the usp, or km.45 tactical

[@zerophoenix8312]

@@Nelex5000 Thats because in 1.6 every weapon have 4~5 different spray patterns, also the accuracy system back then is totally differnet. If you went spraying like in csgo then it will be mostly depends on your luck, but tapping and bursting is very consistent. I would say 1.6 is more skill-based than csgo, it just takes painful amount of time to learn. If you want to hit some shots with AK, do single tap only.

You explained it so well. You officially changed my mind, keep the deagle as it is!!!

[@cesgopuroavp286]

It's obviously not what it needs to be. Keep the 1 hit headshots the same, but remove 2 hit kill to the body. I think it should kill in 3 hits in the range where you would kill with 2 hits, and 4 hits where you would kill with 3 shots earlier. Also decreasing reserve ammo to 21 (or maybe even 14) and decreasing penetration power to walls would make the gun and the game itself more balanced.

[@cesgopuroavp286]

Also the Revolver doesn't needs change, it just needs the opportunity to be discovered just like AUG and Krieg had back in 2018.

[@acmeproduct3516]

I have a fix. It goes like this: up damage by one (63>64) and dropping penetration to 75% from 93%, also buffing the drop-off to .85 from .81, by math, the Deagle has around the same armoured OHK range and it no more 2-hit-kills an armored chest, (48 damage to armoured chest at point blank). Armoured stomach 2-hit-kill is nerfed to 500 units , and unarmoured is buffed up to 1400 units. I would also tweak the recovery time to be .6 seconds (between CS 1.6's Deagle at .4 and CS:GO's Deagle at .8), crouched should stay the same, as should accuracy in both stances. This way as you can see the gun is a bit more balanced without affecting it's OHK cappabilitiies, due to it's better damage fall-off. If valve changed these stats the Deagle would be less of a "chest-spam" weapon, mantaining it's capabilities as a eco weapon, also making it a little bit more controllable, but overall staying the same. Like for Philip (and hopefully Valv€) to see!

[@Minami_C]

I don't think the deagle needs an adjustment, I'd rather ask for R8 revolver rework... so it can be an actual replacement

[@m-yday]

I always appreciate Philip's view on these things. They're almost always, if not always, based on facts, and what would actually make the game better. I don't even play the game but I'd be damned if Philip's arguments aren't some of the best I've seen regarding games in general

[@Teo_stra]

I think lowering the firing speed should fix the issue, less effective trying to spam it at close range lowers ttk if going for body shots changes nothing if going for 1 taps

[@cmohandas]

It might as well be a revolver then

[@bruschetta7711]

It may actually be a buff for lower ranked players, the lower fire rate will help hitting the enemy more consistantly, because it's not that easy to know when your gun is enough accurate to hit the enemy

[@Dat-Mudkip]

Current Stats: Rounds Per Minute: 266 Headshot Damage* (Unarmored vs. Armored): 250/233 Chest/Arms Damage: 62/58 Stomach Damage: 78/72 Leg Damage: 46/46 * includes multiplier Proposed Stats: Rounds Per Minute: 200 Headshot Damage* (Unarmored vs. Armored): 250/233 Chest/Arms Damage: 58/45 Stomach Damage:64/49 Leg: 40/40 * includes multiplier Reasons: -CS:GO is currently the only game in the series that has the Deagle fire at 266 rpm instead of 200. -The reduction in chest/arms damage more closely mimics that of CS:S damage (53/40), and also encourages the user to aim for the head. If the opponent is unarmored, the gun can kill in two hits, whereas if they ARE armored it will take at least 3. -The reduction in stomach damage, again, more closely resembles the damage in CS:S (66/50). It allows one to have a chance of getting two-shot kills in the stomach, but does not guarantee it. - The leg damage more closely resembles CS:S (40/40), and is lowered so that it does not deal more damage here than the chest, regardless if the opponent is wearing armor. - Accuracy, spread, range, ammunition reserve, etc. should probably remain unchanged unless needed.

Philip has blessed us again with this thumbnail

[@SaxaphoneWalrus]

Summary: Shots 1-5: Clearly missed. Shots 6-9: Missed due to recoil (bad spray control). Shots 10-11: Very close, but recoil and inaccuracy make these reasonable misses. Shot 12: Likely didn't actually fire because the deagle was already dead.

It makes more sense making those changes for the revolver. The deagle should behave more like in CS 1.6 or source.

[@huMblemTw]

Def needs changing, I don't know Phil - I love that you do all these in depth videos, but the 1.6 deagle just felt right - running, crouching, 1 step / 1 shot angle peeking - that gun just fitted every situation accordingly. Well having said that as a WHOLE I feel that 1.6 was better and that each of the guns was created / designed correctly to match the feel of the player and the shots they were firing. There was something " special " and secret about the ingredients to CS 1.6 that made everything feel "Real " when you were spraying and missing you knew you were spraying recklessly, when you were slow, methodical and planned to be deadly accurate you were. CS Source's Deagle was absolute trash and not a True reflection of the spirit and feel of CounterStrike. CS GO Deagle just feels random and not aligned with what the player actually planned / shot for they way 1.6 would match the intention of the players planned shots and the reality matching the intention ? Hope that makes sense. CS GO Deagle def needs correction. +1 to Accuracy -1 to Deagle Spam Damage.

I loved the Deagle in 1.6 and as I recall it, you could shoot it faster back then. If the second shot had better accuracy it seems reasonable. To me it seems a bit silly that the accuracy is so based on rng and that it is only like 24 meters or so when standing and the damage drop off seems silly too. Especially for a gun with this much power. Body shots should of course be viable! We are talking. 50 cal here!
