[QUOTE=Naught;50171666]to be fair, the changes in stats matter so little since every gun is still a 1-shot headshot.[/QUOTE]
It still matters because every shot you take isn't going to be a headshot. That's why a gun like the P90 is garbage, because everything about it is inferior except rate of fire to the MP5, even though headshots kill no matter what. It's why Ash's R4C is straight up better too (literally an upgrade in every stat), why the SMG 11 is so stupid good (insane RoF and good damage), why Frost's SMG is kinda underwhelming in comparison to the other SMGs (lower RoF). When you're someone like Sledge or Thermite or Jager, who doesn't have a second comparable weapon, then yeah all the weapons can see same-y.

He's talking about the cod guns not the R6 ones, which is funny because I think guns in cod do a better job of feeling different compared to most other games with generic modern guns.
And tbh even then you can feel distinct differences between most of the guns in Siege. Just because they're all 1-KO headshots doesn't mean their body-shot performance doesn't matter or isn't felt.

[QUOTE=ashxu;50167726]thats actually one thing that irks me, some have cool gadgets like the trophy system thing, emp grenades, thermite or a gadget that can shoot multiple grenades
then we have people who just have a hammer, a bear trap or a hybrid scope lol[/QUOTE]
If you read the bios on the operators, most of the people who use the high-tech gadgets are engineers or scientists, while the low tech gadgets are used by people who excel at athletics or any sort of strength/endurance based activity.
I just got a hackusation for a final match kill. It was on House and someone just killed a teammate from outside the bathroom window (I'm on D). I'm in construction and I know I punched out a hole in the window looking out to roof, and I'm not that close to it anyway, so I take my time getting there. As soon as I get to the window I see him turn around and nail him. They just couldn't keep a comment about suspicious timing to themselves. This guy also ace'd the first round so I'm guessing he was just salty.

I love getting those. I got one earlier too against a friends stack from a guy who didn't know me. Shit's anyways great.

I believe the G36 is less affected by damage drop off than the R4, but the R4 is still flat out better IMO.
Hope they actually do something about the lack of an anti-cheat that actually works.
It's actually affecting tournaments now to the point where one guy was clearly using wallhacks, and the admins of said tournaments still won't ban him.
And maybe they can have frost and buck not be behind basically a paywall?
been using mute a lot, i think his router things help a lot with hiding info in pre-game and in general denies information.
dont really particularly like any of the attackers though, if anything just ash and thermite due to being able to destroy shit. thermite also has frags

Mute is way more useful with walls than drones, I mean it's nice to block their drones but the walls take priority imo.

Uh, they're not behind a paywall, or "basically a paywall". They just take time to get, like getting all of the original operators.

I don't like Mute tbh. He is too hard countered by Thatcher, and he needs a second operator to be truly effective. If he is paired with Castle then he can reliably block reinforced windows from entry and Fuze, but then his jammers can still be popped by Thatcher (and I don't like Castle either). Those windows can still be breached by characters like Ash and Sledge too. Also, blocking drones early isn't as big of a deal as pubs like to make it out to be. You can find out where the enemy obj is and just shout it out to your team, you don't need it ID'd for any reason outside of sweet points.
If you really like the idea of jamming walls, play Bandit instead. Bandit has a trick that will let you zap off Thermite charges without the danger of losing your shock boxes by Thermite. [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IUAFUuhNdjM&feature=youtu.be&t=85]You can watch it here.[/url] Bandits SMG is also better than Mutes, and is he better at roaming and lurking because of the one armor/three speed so you can play on the obj or outside the obj with Bandit.

Ah right you mean like 2500 points that takes about 3-4 wins to get? Because it seems in my game they accidentally added another zero.
They're no where near as easy to get as the originals. Ofcourse, if you buy the booster packs they are.

They're designed to take a few weeks of playing to get.

No, I mean all of the original operators are 25k renown to unlock completely.
I've never bought the booster packs and I'm drowning in extra renown. If it wasn't for the fact that the operator skin bundles were briefly purchasable for 50k renown each, I'd have over 150k renown right now. If you play enough you'll find having too much renown is a problem because there really is nothing to spend it on. It takes ~25 hours to get 25k renown which really isn't a long time for just playing the game. Despite enjoying him, I'd say you could even skimp out on Buck if you wanna be cheap and just not get one of the Black Ice ops. Considering it sounds like one of the Dust Line ops is going to be terrible too (the attacker), that is another 25k renown you don't need to worry about saving up.
And if you think you can't get the DLC ops in a reasonable amount of time, then buy the season pass. But the DLC operators are far and away not locked behind a pay wall.
To unlock: pay or play it's as easy as that. You either spend time or Money. But since time=Money there really aint no difference. Less complaining more earning. I sit at 145k renown and I have absolutely nothing to spend it on since i dont care about skins.
went 15-5 and utterly carried my team in ranked earlier, we went down to 4 vs 5 after 1 round and managed to pull back to a 5-4 win, no thanks to Marler getting 1 kill and 8 deaths

also got accused of hacking by one of the enemy team members, repeatedly, which was fun to see
Mute would be better if he could jam emp nades

This kills the purpose of a thatcher though. Essentially just walls off entire sections of reinforced walls. We just need a legit counter to thatcher.

Nerf the EMP radius so it doesn't take out an entire room with one go.
Man, I got matched with ExecCS and we played for three hours together, I give him a gg shout out in his chat, he doesn't even acknowledge it. He played like ass too because I carried him though a couple of matches. I hate getting matched with him.

No, it would just require Thatcher to play a little smarter instead of tossing it mindlessly
[QUOTE=redBadger;50179341]No, it would just require Thatcher to play a little smarter instead of tossing it mindlessly[/QUOTE]
So just throw it shy of the jammers? People will just be careful where they toss it. It won't long term affect how OP Thatcher is.
no word on the dlc?

Be patient, they were saying that the game starts at 10am/7am, not that they'll reveal the dlc then.

Speaking of the stream, I highly urge you guys not to watch it, so you can boycott the ESL and Ubisoft's bullshit and slack regarding cheaters.
Thanks got a link to the stream??

Little over an hour and no word on DLC yet, assuming they're saving it for later in the stream.
Someone just blew themselves up with their own breach charge.
We're seeing the highest level of play here boys no doubt about it.
