A new beta release hit CS:GO last night, bringing small changes to the infamous Negev light machine gun. The Negev now has improved accuracy while burst firing and reduced accuracy recovery time. This means that the Negev’s “laser beam” accuracy can be achieved much quicker. To balance the changes that make it more powerful, movement speed and armor penetration were decreased so that fully armored players cannot be killed in one bullet.

Designing a game is a challenging task. If there’s something even remotely more challenging than developing the game itself, it would be maintaining it.
