CS:GO Update Nerfs AWP Movement
Operation Vanguard is over, but not without fanfare. A new Counter-Strike: Global Offensive update was pushed yesterday, bringing several changes both large and small to the game's weapons, maps, and more.
First off, tagging values have been updated to the point where they've provided a guide to explain how the system works. Read it on the Steam Community page.
Among the tweaks made to Counter-Strike: Global Offensive's arsenal is a decrease in players' scoped movement speed with the AWP and Autosnipers, effectively making peeking around corners while zoomed-in a riskier move.
