SG 553 is one of two fully automatic assault rifles with a scope available in the game. Available only when playing as an attack.The main feature of the SG 553 is the already mentioned optical sight, which has the possibility of magnification, which helps in aiming. The use of the scope also gives a certain advantage in the game at longer distances in the attack, making the SG 553 rifle an excellent niche device between f ull-fledged assault and sniper rifles. However, the high cost, unusual spray pattern and, of course, the recent damage fix, rate of fire make the SG 553 quite a situational device.Price in the game  - 3000 $ SG 553 damage HitboxDamageUnarmoredArmoredHead120120Chest Arm3030Stomach3737Legs2222Red color signifies a fatal damage It has a high accuracy of the first shotIt has an optical sight that helps when playing at long distancesIt has the fastest reload among all rifles of the classKills in the head with the first shot, regardless of the level of the enemys armor (the only automatic weapon in the game) It has a rather complex spray patternIt is a fairly heavy rifle that reduces the players movement speedHas a low movement speed in the scopeIt has more recoil than the AK-47 A rifle used on the defensive side is also ideal for attacking. Without a sight, it is most effective at medium distances, and with the use of a sight - at long distances. The best type of shooting is taping or a sho rt burst - up to 2-3 bullets. The first shot is very accurate, which makes it easy to kill with one in the head even at a considerable distance. This is also due to a slight loss of damage at a distance - an average of 0.11 HP for every 100 units. Be careful when using the scope for a long time. You may be very surprised by the enemy who may be waiting for you from the side or from behind. Watch out for shotguns at close range and AUG-at medium-range. These weapons are most effective against a player using SG 553. 2019 is the year that CS players play:GO dubbed the SG 553 era AUG ended with an unexpected fix for both the first and second rifles. Take a look at the imbalance that the SG 553 could have caused in the hands of a professional. Golden show SG 553 in action befor the fix The SG 553, which has an incredible rate of fire, relatively low cost and one of the lightest spray patterns among assault rifles available when playing as an attack, lost almost all of its advantages after t he fix in the spring of 2020. Reduced rate of fire and accuracy negated the ability to effectively spray from SG 553 at short and medium distances. The modified spray pattern perfectly demonstrates the minimal effectiveness of this type of shooting. SG553 Spray Pattern And even a person with an almost unrealistic ability to control the spread of SG 553 is likely to face a lot of problems when using spray as the main type of shooting.The SG 553s accuracy drops quickly when shooting with spray and remains about the same level as the first Negev bullets. Use short bursts of fire to keep the scatter in its normal position, without pinching it.At the moment, the rifle is the most situational device that experienced players prefer. Therefore, it makes almost no sense to buy it.In addition, the accuracy of the SG 553 drops rapidly when shooting with spray and remains approximately at the level of accuracy of the first bullets fired from Negev. Use short bursts of fire to keep the scatter in i ts normal position, without pinching it. Powerful and accurate rifle with an AUG optical sight with a low spread of bullets and a high rate of fire, leveling long reloading. AUG - an assault rifle with a telescopic sight, available for purchase only for the defense side.It has average characteristics compared to powerful rifles like the AK-47 in terrorists, but thanks to the same optical sight as the SG 553, it has a number of important advantages that level the difference in damage. Accurate enough at medium and long distances, AUG is gaining more and more popularity among players even after the famous fix.Price in the game - 3300 $ AUG damage HitboxDamageUnarmoredArmoredHead112101Chest Arm2825Stomach3531Legs2121Red color signifies a fatal damage It has a high accuracy of the first shotIt has an optical sight that increases its mobility and increases accuracy at long and medium distances.Kills in the head with the first shot, even if the enemy has a helmet (but only at close range). I t has a relatively long cooldown time (3.8 seconds at 3.1 for the M4).)It costs more than other assault rifles for the defense side ($200 more expensive than the M4)It has a disproportionately high spray spreadIt has a fairly low damage to armored targets, with the exception of the hit to the head AUG is the most effective weapon for defense: it is most effective at medium and long distances when firing short bursts of 3-4 bullets. The scope of this rifle helps to increase mobility at long distances, but shooting in the scope is on average less accurate than from the hip. AUG can be called a pumped M4 with less damage. Keep in mind that using the scope at close range increases your vulnerability and reduces the viewing angle. use the scope at a close distance from the enemy, as it reduces the side vision. It is most effective to use the sight from cover. This method will help you stay a challenging target for your opponent longer, especially at medium distances. It is worth noting that the AUG has reduced damage to unarmored targets compared to other assault rifles, but its good armor penetration against opponents with body armor and even a helmet makes the AUG a unique weapon that can kill with a single headshot. Keep in mind that AUG has a long recharge time and only recharge when absolutely necessary. Meeting an enemy while reloading will leave you with no chance of survival. As with the SG 553, watch out for close-range shotguns. Returning to the same famous fix in early 2020, it is worth noting that the changes in AUG did not have such a critical impact on its use. In addition, the beginning of 2021 demonstrates that even professional players in some cases prefer AUG to the same M4.If we talk about the spray , then its spray pattern was not significantly changed and remained similar to M4.After the update, AUG received improved accuracy when shooting standing, while losing in this characteristic when shooting sitting with a scope.To have the best chance of shoo ting an opponent, you need to be aware of the spray pattern from AUG.
