[QUOTE=Drk;49683060]Mandatory watch (if you didn't already) to understand why this game is fundamentally broken and the "E-SPORT COMPETITIVE" aspect of it is a giant joke and will get nowhere. [video]https://youtu.be/vBZj4c_j9Qs[/video][/QUOTE] Don't give a shit. Still havin' fun. Not a broken game to me if it's entertaining me which is what I want games to do.
[QUOTE=GoldenBullet;49685325]Is anyone else just fucking awful at this? I love every second because this game is pretty awesome but I'm just so, so bad[/QUOTE] Experience trumps all in this game. Soon enough, you'll know where other players are likely to enter, how to make kill zone, how to predict enemy movement. Don't worry too much about it, when I played it during the free weekend, it was about 90% frustration at sucking, but then I kept at it and now I'm actually decent. Nowhere where I'd like to be, but decent. It's a lot like CS:GO in that regard. It's extremely punishing when you start, it's easy to be overwhelmed by the number of operators, gadgets, and map knowledge (what walls can be shot through, what can't, shortcuts, etc...) Later on, the biggest frustration you'll meet is due to netcode (Getting killed when the enemy never shot where you were, spotting an enemy that you see staring at a wall shooting you in the face, etc) and some bullshit burst that hits your head, but it will also sometimes be in your favor. I can't stress enough the use of drones on attack and Cameras on defense. Knowing where your enemy is when they don't is the biggest advantage you can get. Especially on attack, if you spot an enemy with a drone, don't spot them with the ping button. The enemy will be none the wiser and stay in the same spot. You can then shoot them through a wall or throw a nasty nade right in his face. Also, don't be scared to roam around on defense, sit in rooms away from the objective. Enemies expect you to be in the objective room, they often don't check rooms where they could be flanked. They even less often expects to be shot down in their entry point. Although always make sure you have a few goons to protect the objective, else you could suffer an objective loss and let attackers use your defenses against you.

i dont really care if this game isnt "e-sports" worthy, everyone's making such a big deal out of it, there's always a comment or a reddit thread about that. i mean, we get it

People pointed this shit out when Battlefield 4 was a disaster at launch while DICE was pushing hard for it to be an esport.
Is the hit detection still screwey from the earlier patch a week ago? I've been playing Xcom 2/not playing video games
[QUOTE=GoldenBullet;49685325]Is anyone else just fucking awful at this? I love every second because this game is pretty awesome but I'm just so, so bad[/QUOTE] I just play terrorist hunt :v:
[QUOTE=Naught;49686789]I just play terrorist hunt :v:[/QUOTE] now try realistic
[QUOTE=sa2fan;49686846]now try realistic[/QUOTE] It's funny, I completed all the situations and have done several terrorist hunts solo on realistic but whenever I go online my team gets its ass handed to it on a silver plate.
decided to take a picture with my buddy here [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/7yvSQd4.jpg[/IMG]
[QUOTE=HumanAbyss;49686681]Is the hit detection still screwey from the earlier patch a week ago? I've been playing Xcom 2/not playing video games[/QUOTE] There has not been a patch/fix posted yet... so yep [editline]6th February 2016[/editline] ...unfortunately, yep...
[QUOTE=sa2fan;49686846]now try realistic[/QUOTE] played it a few times, its not really worth it because 99% of the time all your teammates are complete shit and die within the first 30 seconds. I got all the operators playing basically nothing but terrorist hunt, both lone wolf and matchmaking, so I'd rather not play it more. (only reason why I don't play online is because I can't play 'competitive' games anymore since I get so frustrated at myself so easily, its why I stopped playing csgo/dota and shit as well.)
Guns have been nerfed. Look for Jager and IQ to be big players now.
As a casual who started with Vegas, I've started to play Raven Shield while waiting for Siege to be unfucked. I have discovered I am terrible at Raven Shield. RIP team Rainbow. [t]http://images.akamai.steamusercontent.com/ugc/318996557787762935/648B9BAFA07D43FBD3BC9790FD1787D910D47BB8/[/t]

Just realized that Hereford is actually the team Rainbow headquarters from the books. Shame the map sucks
[QUOTE=redBadger;49688875] Shame the map sucks[/QUOTE] take it back
[QUOTE=redBadger;49688638]Source ? Also hopefully this means bandit wont be as huge of a smug bitch[/QUOTE] Source is myself watching the damage on the guns change in the inventory. Twitch 417 went from 65 to 61 for instance. Rook's MP5 went from 40 to 33 IIRC. Just some small differences that make a huge impact in the long run.

[QUOTE]Fixed weapon damage numbers in menus We have changed the damage numbers in the menus according to the light armor values. [/QUOTE] [editline]7th February 2016[/editline] I agree with whoever said that holosights are wonky. Easily seen when shooting at a camera. Even if you just fire one shot you need to aim below the camera to hit it. Realism maybe..

couldn't get in a game yesterday so my group just fucked about trying to do melee and pacifist terrorist hunts it was surprisingly fun
Really wanna play some Siege right now but with the game being such a shit it's just not that fun. :/ I heard a deb posted that they have a patch waiting for console approval though so patch soon hopefully.
I haven't seen it mentioned but I might be late anyway, but apparently there's going to be an Amber and Amethyst weapon skin pack sometime in the future to accompany the Emerald one. I kinda wanna get the Amber one, but according to Amazon it releases on March 8th? What strange spacing between skin releases
