Counter-Strike Weapons Get Refurbished

As you know, some six
weeks have passed since the CS community has started to have a saying in the pricing of Counter-Strike weapons. In these six weeks, the price of the Desert Eagle has started to increase in a steady manner till it got out of control.

According to a Steam update, this has happened because the Desert Eagle has become more useful than the rest of the pistols. In what way it is more useful they do no explain but mention that purchasing one of the other pistols is not a smart move. I must admit I liked the Desert Eagle way before "it became more useful†because it is simply steadier when aiming than the other pistols.

Valve also promises to make the rest of the pistols, Five Seven, P228 and Dual Elites more effective. More effective in what way? I'm sorry to disappoint you, but they do not say. Apparently, the prices of all pistols have been reset to their previous defaults in preparation for this change.

Valve's Counter-Strike tweaks to level pistol prices

Counter Strike: Source's dynamic pricing system has raised the Desert Eagle's cost to a point that Valve has admitted to be "somewhat out of control." As the only viable pistol option, the "Deagle" has become one of CS:S's most expensive items, since the pricing system raises and lowers costs according to popularity. Valve hopes that by tweaking the effectiveness of the Five Seven, P228, and Dual Elites pistols, players will cash in for these decidedly cheaper options, in turn driving the Deagle's price back down.

Update: the new modifications have already been introduced.

The desert eagle is my favourite pistol. One hit kills and even better than the shotgun in certain situations. The only problem is that I have a pretty horrible aim. Easily the best weapon for a sniper to have.
