Update history

August 15, 2012 Patch

  • [Undocumented] Added the AWPer Hand.

Bugs

  • The AWPer Hand suffers from abundant clipping in both first and third person, especially when taunting.
  • The texture of the scope's lens appears flat when viewed up close, as seen in first person. It uses the standard Sniper Rifle's lens texture at greater distances or lower levels of detail, however.

Trivia

  • The description references the fact the AWP is commonly banned in Counter-Strike and Counter-Strike: Source servers.
  • The weapon's name is a play on "upper hand", referencing the advantage in Counter-Strike games that AWP users have, due to its immense stopping power.
