This load out allows you to keep both M4s at least.

Noob friendly feature. Lots of weapons in the buy menu was overwhelming for new players. Thats what Valve were thinking i suppose.

Makes you consider your role outside of the individual round. If you’re taking more long range engagements you might not use the FAMAS enough to justify it in your loadout.
Just my guess.

There are times I’d like to use a different pistol, or SMG, but otherwise it’s a non issue. I don’t even have scout in my loadout and AWP only gets thrown to others, I haven’t even touched the AUG since I equipped it lmao.
It seems to add a bit of preparation / sacrifice. Because yeah you may feel the need to use an AUG next round, but silly little you and your snipers! No AUG in your loadout. Adapt.

because valoranto has similar system

The theory from early beta is that they’ll eventually add entirely new guns to the game and it will eventually be more of an actual meaningful decision instead of basically having to choose to omit 1 viable gun like it is now. And a little after release, they did say they are thinking about it: https://www.pcgamer.com/we-asked-valve-if-counter-strike-2-will-introduce-new-weapons-yes/
I don’t know how I feel about adding new guns, honestly. I don’t mind evolving the game a bit, but it’s a crazy fine line between releasing some OP new weapon or it being garbage and going unused, in which case there’s almost no point.

There is no good reason for that, although I really couldn’t care less. Its not like I play aug or auto sniper.

so annoying that we have to choose a loadout.
ahozyy_
you can rock the aug, famas, and both m4’s, just remove the scout and ask someone to drop you if you really want it

Famas is shit mp9 is better in every way
kingofthecanyon
Not to mention having to clutter the middle column with kinda whatever when I basically only ever buy an MP9 or a MAC-10
Lohnstar5

My biggest guess is that it would be make the layout asymmetrical and that wouldnt look cool
yomer80
Just ask for a drop from someone who has it

not sure what’s so hard about letting us buy all the guns all the time

Not a fan. A major point of CS was literally not having a load out. Every player has the same chance as every other player at the start of the match. Granted, it’s rarely doing anything game breaking, I just find it unnecessary. There are a couple times where I feel like I use this pistol or that shotgun and don’t have it equipped. Ironically it makes people use those weapons less.

I don’t think they should add new guns, it’s just going to be the exact same way as it is with the m4a1/m4a4 throughout most of the history. One was always better than the other, although sometimes barely, but whenever the balance flipped from A4 to A1, 90% played A1, and when it flipped back to A4, all those people went back to the A4.
CS is a min/max game, it’s not possible to balance guns in a “this is as good as that” way, the only way is to add an economical alternative that’s slightly worse and turn it into more of a strategic choice.

So you see the empty slots where you don’t have skins are are subconsciously encouraged to fill them

Famas and Galil should be moved to the “mid-tier” anyways imo
