How? Slower fire rate meaning it kills slower and it has less ammo, if you test its accuracy is also not that much better.

its okay for its price, no need to buff
its also good for long range fights or lurk plays

Ok but you are not thinking of a vital flaw, its usable in certain scenarios, well the A4 is usable in all scenarios and you can have both equipped so you take the A1 you are limiting yourself.

No it doesnt as it the AUG actually replaces the A1 as its more accurate when scoped and at long ranged you can afford to scope, the A4 is better in 90% of scenarios than the A1 and the AUG does the A1s only real strength better and the aA1 actually isnt all that much more accurate than the A4.

The AUG fires slower, its 600rpm the A4 is 666rpm.
The A1 is too weak to be an option, pros agree with me.
4 replies
aug does 25 to chest, so zero chance of 92 in 4. a4 is actually a 5 shot kill to the chest, aug is 4 and can do it from a longer range.
given that more players will start to main aug(see astralis) i expect the a1s to get used more, i mean simple was already using it around the end of last year
3 replies
Meanwhile his usage of the A1 is lower than the A4, the AUG also costs more and is less accurate when not scoped, it also has a lower fire rate.

3 months is too long of a range, he switched in like november. switch it to one month and it's clearer
aug costs more but definitely worth it, they buffed unscoped accuracy, i explained above why guaranteed 4 shot kills and the scope make it better for holding positions even though it has lower fire rate

You should be aiming for the head hence most good riflers have over a 50% headshot percentage, you want to kill as fast as possible, aiming for the chest vs good players will get you killed.

The 4 shot is never optimum, the 2 shot is.
No, most people spray for the head for atleast the first 4-7 shots.
remove the a1s, tired of retards dropping me this shit gun when I ask for a drop

Or just give it 30 rounds like it should have and either make it even more accurate so it makes a real difference or make its fire rate higher than the AK's but lower than the A4's.

Also lets say its budget you cant have both selected at once so its pointless, so do the logical thing, buff it, id rather remove the A4 as its not a gun that exists the M4A4 is a WW2 tank not a rifle, the M4A1 exists the M4A4 doesnt.

They might buff it soon. I lost 150€ back in the day when they nerfed it. Right now I have 110€ m4a1 printstream, hope its going stonks.
I am using a1 in long range maps, its a good laser gun. Since I dont tryhard faceit anymore, its fun to play with a1.

Should've gone for ST FN for more stonks
please no
Definently for just holding a site and playing straight up gunfights it sucks, but for some spots where there are def smokes it's not bad for spamming through it. Also it just helps for flanks. Usually you would get like 1 kill with an m4 out of a few people long range not looking at you but with the a1 you'll prob get two assuming you got the crispy aim.

Wait what? He said it's negligible. It doesn't really makes a difference. meaning it's not worth considering the differences right? So m4a1-s > m4a4 right?
31 replies
I mean in terms of accuracy m4a1-s = m4a4 but considering if we look into the prices of both & other aspects m4a1-s > m4a4 but m4a4 has its own advantages as well. Preferences coming first i guess.
No, the difference between them in accuracy is negligible.
The A4 has more ammo and a faster fire rate meaning it will kill faster and can kill more before you have to reload.
That was me in the video.
29 replies
#54 but you do noticed most of the pro players who regularly awping as their role by nature will lean on m4a4-s right? I dont know why & how to describe it but must have something to do with your particular skills that make that rifle more comfortable than the other.
28 replies
No, most pros are using the M4A4.
And if you are an awper you arent going to play the same as you do with an awp with a rifle, so that makes no sense.
Their is a meta for a reason, its based around the most effective weapons at the time, the A1 isnt in it.

ChrisJ is awful and has just been dropped by mouz.

I'm not talking about the percentages or who's awful & who's not it's not what we're discussing about I'm talking about why dont they stick to it if it's superior to the other right? And particularly players who is known for using awp. Forget about the old buff it's years ago. Talking about currently some of the pro players are still using it during official matches recently. Does this has to do with the matches for them to switch on a particular map? We might have solve something here.

I'm 100% sure s1mple using one in the first match against liquid. Even if they dropped him that gun why dont they dropped him an m4a4? Considering there's only 1 player who used it every often.
You get my point or not? You're too relying on statistics right now which I'm not even talking about that. Of all the 5 players in the line up s1mple is the one using m4a1-s.

Jesus okay2 if that's what you stand for have it your way. It's still back to preferences. Any goddamn players can use any rifle that suits them. Statistically maybe it's proven lacking some of the aspects but still there are pro players who is known for the awper role are sticking on using it instead of the other. Just watch some of the players i mentioned to you in blast global. You'll see what i mean.

"It's still back to preferences."
No one is showing the preference because the weapons is too bad if it was level and just as good then its down to preference, in this case its not as people who want to use it there was a video recent ill link it at the bottom where they asked pros and about 2-3 said they wanted to use the A1S but its not good enough.

THAT'S NOT MY POINT GOSH I'm stating it even the statistics proved so that it's lackluster than the other it comes down down to the preferences of each individual. What my point is why theyre still players who are KNOWN for using AWP are still sticking to m4a1-s? You dont believe me? Watch s1mple's match today. Even if the rifle isnt his or being dropped by his teammates then why the hell the rest of the team are using m4a4 & he's using m4a1-s? He can always use the m4a4 if it's better, according to statistics, than m4a1-s.
Edited: switched the rifle on the last sentence.
14 replies
So you think oh theres this one player so its preference, no otherwise these other players who also want to use it but wont because its bad dont, I'd rather use it, but its too shit.
Do you know why else he might be using it? Hes an awper, its cheaper, more money for awps in the long run, the gun is not good enough hence its low use.
13 replies
THAT'S MY GODDAMN POINT IN #54 #57 & #76. I never argued about it being better than another in vice versa you can read back. I never deny those statistics that you gave & even the first thing i said it's like awp & scout for me (as i dont know what everyone else is feeling about it) is more accurate than the m4a4. You should read.properly back because i never intended to win the argument. It's a discussion for chrisj sake.

But you are saying makes no sense, using it makes no sense, its actually just a bad choice, its actually just playing the game wrong as its a bad weapon.
I dont even get why continued to post then, it needs a buff its really that simple, its nothing to do with preference.
Its like buying the R8 over the a Deagle, bad choice.

Let me deconstruct your argument for you.
"but you do noticed most of the pro players who regularly awping as their role by nature will lean on m4a4-s right?"
This is not correct, you see this in the stats, look at awpers most are using the A4.
"Does this has to do with the matches for them to switch on a particular map? We might have solve something here."
This is also not the case, there is no map where you see more A1-S than A4 usage so this makes no sense.
Your entire argument is incoherent.
reply to #120
No, what you are saying doesnt make sense youve made claims that are wrong, youve then stated youve seen players using it, by players you mean 1.
Awpers are not leaning on the A1s.

You are not being argumentative (expectedly)
No its not, its also hardly more precise i uploaded a video in this thread to show this, the slower fire rate is only a downfall, its being cheaper doesnt matter its still too expensive for how bad it is.

3kliksphilip made a video about it back before vital updates (magazine/reserve going to 25/75, cost reduced) a1-s has few advantages over a4, which can be better utilized with particular playstyle and shooting style. Plus be a better choice on per-map basis. I'd be only happier if it was buffed even further as i only use a1-s, but just saying - it's already good.

That would make it too powerful. You can't just add something so OP to competitive tactical game
i tryed so hard to play with it, but tbh it is shit asf compared to m4a4, so low fire rate, less bullets, just because of the fucking 200$? no more.
It still usable on long range maps like d2, overpass. but when you'r about to secure a rush like in banana, B site d2, and close range, it is shit asf you need to hit all the shots or you'll get fucked

+ i was using it since the update that make it cost 2900$, and m4a4 is much better.
like i said it's not worth, you may change to M4A4 on close range maps or when you feel shit with it.
i did it for a while but now i will kept just the M4A4, when you has no money just go with Famas still a good rifle.
