I guess it was "fixed" so that you had to hit them in the body or above, because a body shot with the AWP would kill someone instantly in 1.6, if I remember correctly.

I remember the P90 having (almost?) no recoil or spread in the beta days as well. Was like a firehose of bullets.

No AWP servers were fairly common and where I mostly played. Even fixed the AWP never quite felt balanced.

My favorite thing to do in the earlier versions was to "gun-run" dropped weapons back to base, since they did not despawn at the end of the round. So much fun amassing a giant arsenal for your teammates to pick through.
