"As a game designer, Gooseman can’t ignore positive changes that could improve Counter-Strike. He’d like to see more gun diversity, one that made picks other than the AK-47, M4A1, and AWP viable — or mandatory.
“It might be interesting to have a system where if you buy too many guns, it goes out of stock,” Gooseman says. “If a team buys AK-47s in the entire match, his team is only allowed to buy maybe 20 AK-47s. If they buy too many of them, then they have to buy like the Galil, and that kind of thing.”
Gun scarcity is interesting from a game design perspective, he notes, but could be very disruptive for the esports scene that is a key part of CS2 today. But in a scenario where Gooseman is invited to be part of a hypothetical Counter-Strike 3 development team, he’d actually apologize to Valve. “I don’t really have much to add,” he says."
