Irons on the bolt is really fun and suprisingly effective. I've had luck with it. That being said its still a sniper and if you get caught against more than one opponent you can't blast them all down like you could with a smg, rifle, or even a shotgun.

However the bullet does penetrate and you can get double kills with one bullet.

So they're exactly the same as they've always been?

This doesn't seem to work at all for me.

Also, can lasers shoot through a shield? I just had a guy with the first laser kill me while I was crouched motionless and facing him from a good 40 yards.

Probably lag. Its especially super noticeable when you're circling a guy and his LARGE OBVIOUS RED LINE is 6 feet behind you and you're still taking damage.

You get like 3 team kills before it starts killing you after every subsequent one and making your wait to respawn longer and longer.

Yeah lag is flat-out way worse after the recent patch than it ever was before. Tonight I was in 3 different games where I had enough time to dump TWO mags of bulldog ammo into someone from 10 feet away... Then they'd fall over dead 2 seconds later.

Also, if you want to figure out where the map glitches are play team infected - I found map glitches on 4 different maps tonight in like an hour of playing - just by following my team and then watching them all jump at random wall/ceiling spaces and vanish. It's pretty funny to hear the infected side try to figure out how to get at people in glitch spots though (just stay out of shottie effective range until they run out of ammo, and then crawl in and wait for someone to move toward you before stabbing them first.)

Yeah i have the lag where i dont fire bullets in the kill cam and generally feel half a second behind the lobby, even on 4 bars, which is most of the time.

Horizon it's a little closet that has one way glass. The fun thing is you can just shoot through the walls to the side or behind it to kill them. Also a NA-45 sniper explosion will kill whoever is inside if you shoot the glass.

Idk I run the turret with support and sentry and it's not bad on domination. People usually don't expect it because lol no one runs turrets. I'll either do 360 degree aim or laser. Yeah remote turret sucks and is a waste but try the sentry mode.

I was a bit embarrassed last night, I was in a group and one woman says, "okay sorry guys - it's about to get loud in here." And I was like oh she must have company over or something.. Until I hear this teenage-sounding kid just starting SCREAMING abuse/frustration at the game over her mic - from across the room or the other room. I assumed he was just some shithead teen playing on her account while she kept the mic on to chat with us, but the kid was like, really out there on the ADHD spectrum hollering "loving BULLSHIT!" "NO WAY I KILLED THAT GUY FIRST THIS IS loving STUPID!" etc over and over.

Finally I was like "jesus what is that kid - 14? Sounds like he had too much mountain dew or something," and she replies "no, sorry, he's autistic." I was like "haha another self-diagnosed assburgers gamer?" "No, he's actually autistic, and he's getting upset at watching me play while I babysit him for my sister - he's 20 but I gave him a controller with no batteries - sorry." :smith:


The worst thing is totally the "guy with the mic and a 3-6 year-old on his lap while he's hollering abuse at everyone and swearing up a storm," though. That never ceases to upset me a bit. :(
